Tyler
Versatile, all ages tutor specializing in Writing and History.
- $40 / h
- Independence , Missouri ( 64055 )
- 20 miles
Hey there! I'm Tyler, I studied for my Bachelor's in Communications at the University of Arkansas. Something I realized over my tenure was just how difficult schoolwork can be when it's being done as a requirement without any enjoyment. Some of my favorite courses and teachers over the years were people who could make even my least favorite subjects into something fun. I try to model this in my own teaching style, pulling on the love of learning that all of us have. That means that each stude... Read more

My name is Kevin and I’ve always wanted to tell stories. When I was in film school at USC, I was a finalist for the Coca-Cola Refreshing Filmmaker’s Award. My submission was titled simply “The Editorâ€. It was about a young boy who used his imagination and the tools available to him to create a story by seeing the world not as it was, but as it could be. It’s an example that I’ve followed for more than 10 years in my professional work as a videographer using technology to combine words, sound... Read more

I love sharing my passion for history with others. I have a talent for making the subject interesting for those who may not normally enjoy the subject (or have yet to realize they enjoy the subject). History sometimes gets a bad wrap for being "boring" and I believe the teacher or tutor makes all the difference. I like to begin by focusing on the amazing characters and stories that history provides. I graduated the University of Kansas with a focus in Medieval History (Europe, Middle E... Read more
