Don't study math... visualize and play with it!
I don't believe in a standard approach to math. Yes, it's important to learn the proper vocab and symbols but I don't think that's useful when it comes before instilling an understanding of the mechanics behind it all. I taught within the system as a public high school math teacher for five years before my frustration with standardization became unbearable. A student needs to bring their experiences and perspectives into their learning for any of it to matter. No standardized curriculum or as... Read more
Susann
Retired college English teacher
I have taught English at Paul Quinn College and TSTC in Waco. I love literature and writing and enjoy making grammar and sentence structure seem easy for my students. Because I love learning and travel, I am starting a new career in Jungian analysis by training in Switzerland at the C. G. Jung Institute. Having a good background in literature and knowing how to write has made it possible for me to have an interesting and productive life even after retiring. I hope to share my love of learni...

Todd
Professional Photographer, and teacher
I have taught and tutored and worked individually with students most of my working career. I began as a public school teacher and then worked in libraries in Waco, Hattiesburg, Mississippi, and then Temple. Part of my duties in all the places I have worked was to help students understand what resources I knew about that could help them achieve their goals. My method is always to help a student understand how to learn to do what they are working on, NOT for me to just do it for them. S... Read more
Matthew
Recent Biochemistry Graduate
I have a Biochemistry degree from Baylor University. I began helping friends in my classes as a way to study and further my own knowledge, but I began to realize that I love teaching. I then became an athletic tutor for Baylor as I was a cross country and track athlete in high school and I realize the time commitments that they make to their sport. After leaving that position to pursue a role more applicable to my future in research, I became a teaching assistant for an introductory chemistry... Read more

I have tutored for about four years total. I've tutored middle school, high school, and college students in just about every subject. My greatest strengths are math and sciences! In tutoring, my goal is not only to improve the student's grades and understanding of the material but to also help them acquire critical thinking skills and study habits. I love learning and I am extremely passionate about science. I am a Biochemistry Major on the pre-medicine track, so my course load is full of sc... Read more
Eric
SAT, ACT, PSAT, and GRE
I was always a great student, and I now enjoy helping others to their own academic success. I have a gift for being able to explain things in a way that people can understand, and I find it especially fulfilling to make sure every bit of a student's hard work and knowledge shows up in a test score. I have always been an excellent test taker, and my skills at standardized tests were my claim to fame in high school. I received a 36 on the ACT and a 2370 on the SAT. Because of this, I was la...

Madison
Experienced High School and College Chemistry Tutor
I'm Madison! I graduated magna cum laude with a B.S. in Chemistry. It always discourages me to hear that people find chemistry and related fields so difficult and frustrating to learn; however, I believe that with a good teacher or tutor even difficult subjects can be fun to learn. What I enjoy most about chemistry is that it has so many real world applications, and I enjoy showing students that once you take all the complicated jargin out of it, it becomes simple. I have two years tutori... Read more
