Elizabeth
I believe in positive reinforcement and patience.
I haven't always been good at writing. I feel like there was something missed between high school and college and it took me years to learn how to write a good essay.

Writing can be a scary thing for a lot of people. I will guide them through it. In teaching literature and reading I am very passionate about people readi... Read more

Stuart
A Tutor You Can Depend On
If I could describe myself in three words, they would be goal-oriented, amicable, and reliable. Even though I don't have a teaching degree, I do have 2 1/2 years' experience as a high school and middle school substitute teacher; in other words, I compensate for proper training with professional knowledge. My tutoring methods could be best summarized as straightforward yet very hands-on, practical but creative. As for my personal background, I graduated from Illinois State University in 20... Read more
