Jacob
Experienced ESL and French Teacher
I have been teaching English as a second language and French for ten years now. My experience has mostly been with secondary (middle) school students, but I have also taught some high school language courses, especially French literature.

Having learned a foreign language (French) myself, I understand ... Read more
Ran
15 years' experience in universities
I am a Baker and TxState Professor with 15 years' experience in teaching Physics and astronomy at all levels. I also taught some engineering and math. Choose me as a tutor, and know no fear!

However, I know many people, no matter their walk in life, struggle with the intricacies and utter confusion which goes hand and hand with communicating in (arguably) the most complicated language in the world. I have a life-long interest in teaching. After scoring a 31 on my English ACTs when I was 17, I w... Read more
