James
Jim W. English, Reading, ACT Prep
Since elementary school, I have taken a liking to the English language arts. I was initially drawn to this subject area when I realized that my skills in it came to me naturally. However, I am no stranger to the difficulty of learning something that does not click right away. For this reason, I love teaching students who find English concepts to be particularly challenging. Through my easy-going communication skills and willingness to be thorough when breaking down an idea, no concept will be... Read more
Christine
Licensed teacher specializing in reading, math and writing!
Before I became a teacher, I was a lawyer for 15 years. I had fun arguing with other lawyers and cross-examining witnesses, but I decided to evolve after my son was born. He struggled with a few issues in elementary school and it was there that I realized how powerful teaching, and thoughtful, targeted intervention, can be. I went back to school, earned my Master's Degree in Education, and am now a licensed teacher! I love problem solving, thinking outside the box, and having fun while te... Read more

Anthony
Nationally Board Certified Educator looking to support students
I have been lucky enough to teach and lead in three strong school/districts, with experiences at St. Rita, Metea Valley, and Carl Sandburg High School. Some of my best experiences have been in individual and small group tutoring settings, as they afford me the opportunity to get to know student learning needs on a more individual basis. Many of my best "success" stories are students who needed such tutoring and, through their hard work, were able to achieve their academic goals. My current... Read more
