Jonathan
English--specialty in research writing and literature.
I am absolutely fascinated by the English language and have spent my academic career studying it. Being able to share that fascination is one of the things I enjoy most about teaching. 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
Semah
Teaching TEFL for all ages
I started my career as a TEFL teacher by first being a student of a foreign language; however, not in school but in real life. I moved to Bulgaria and worked there, without knowing a single Bulgarian word before I left. My teacher in Bulgarian was flexible, funny, and active in my learning experience and he gave me the skills I needed to succeed. Therefore, I understand what it means to live in an area without knowing the language and learning from zero. I understand how students feel, when t... Read more

I have enjoyed teaching all grade levels, preschool to college
After completing my master's in psychology, I taught at Furman University in SC and then locally at DeVry. When my daughter started kindergarten, I became a very involved parent, volunteering multiple days to help with tutoring as well as other teacher's aide needs. I discovered that I could work part-time as a para-professional which I then did, teaching Speech at an elementary school, then a middle school and finally at a high school. I really enjoy the one-on-one relationship I can get... Read more

My knowledge and enthusiasm makes history accessible and fun
- $40 / h
- Shawnee Mission , Kansas ( 66204 )
- 20 miles
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
