Kyle
Experienced tutor specializing in science, programming, and math
Hi! I'm Kyle. I recently completed my PhD in cognitive neuroscience from the University of California, Davis. Before grad school, I completed my B.S. in psychology (with a minor in biology) from the University of Pittsburgh.

I love watching my students improve and reach th... Read more

Jenny
Graphic Designer, Artist and Craftsperson
Hi, I'm Jenny! I have been designing for over a decade, and I have experience in many design-related fields such as print making, painting, typography, letterpress printing, hand lettering and more. I graduated from the School of the Art Institute with a BFA in Art and Technology.

Tiffany
Math Made Meaningful
I am a strong believer that anyone can be successful in math if the right process is used. I didn't start out as an educator, but when I saw my nieces struggling in math I decided to tutor them. I loved seeing the light bulb turn on when they finally understood the concept. The enjoyment that I got from helping my nieces made me want to help others, so I went back to school for education. I've been teaching Middle School Math for the past 6 years, I've also taught freshman algebra. I am very ... Read more
