Michael
Math, History, Social Studies, Economics, K-6 and Secondary Tutor

Reading Warrior
I am a recent college graduate interested in helping children with their educational needs. I love to see the look on a child's face when they first open a book or when they learn how to read. It warms my heart. I started tutoring in high school with the Homework Network program. I like to find new and innovative ways to explain and teach students what they don't understand. Every child learns and comprehends differently. It would be my privilege to assist you with your tutoring needs!... Read more

I have graduate degrees in computer science and professional counseling. As a result, I have strong skills in logic, communication, programming, mathematics and writing. As a tutor, I prefer an interactive teaching style in which the student works through problems and exercises with my guidance, asking questions as necessary. As you can see from this response, I also tend to be succinct. Always feel free to ask any questions you have, though!... Read more
