Anthony
Bilingual Japanese Tutor, half Japanese American
I was born in Hokkaido, Japan to a Japanese mother and an American father. I spent most of my infant and pre-school years, as well as junior high and the latter half of my college years, in the US, and the rest in Japan, which has made me a true bilingual. Not only am I fluent in Japanese, but I am also familiar with its culture, both traditional and popular, literature, history, geography, etc., and thus I am able to offer an exceptional and exciting tutoring service that perfectly meets ...

Jean
Mathematics Enthusiast
I tutored after school for my last two years in High School. While I was attending University of Central Florida, I also did online tutoring specifically for math subjects. I know that I can teach this difficult subject in the simplest ways. Everyone I have helped told me they were surprised at how easy it is once I explain it to them. I love that I am able to teach a subject that seems difficult to most. I really want to get back into tutoring partly because I know the best way to lea... Read more
Eliedonna
Patient and Knowledgeable in Science and Math Tutoring
I believe that education is one of the most important things in a person’s life. As an individual coming from a third world country, receiving a formal education is arduous. And I am very fortunate and grateful that I am one of those people who were given a chance to acquire excellent education from respected schools and universities. I have passion and enthusiasm for teaching because I want to share my knowledge as a way of giving back to all the privileges that I have received. Born an... Read more

I was born in New Orleans. I became interested in music in high school and played in a band which played all the contemporary music of the day. After high school I received an associates degree in music therapy from Delgado Jr. College. I then moved to Boston and attended the Berklee College of Music which is considered by many to be the Harvard of Jazz schools, where I received a degree in arranging and composition. That degree I received enables me to arrange scores for "Big Bands" in th... Read more

I have had work assignments, which gave me expertise in investigations, interview and interrogation... Read more
Jennifer
LET'S MAKE LEARNING FUN!!!
Hi! My name is Jennifer. I started off my career as a Child Development Specialist working with infants and toddlers with disabilities for the state of Nevada. I did this for almost ten years before moving to New Mexico where I taught a preschool classroom of 2.5 to 4 year olds with disabilities. I tutored regular elementary-aged children in Virginia, specifically in reading, and I also was the lead teacher for a regular daycare/learning center in Southern Utah for children 2 to 13. My p...

Alex
Experienced Innovator in Physics Instruction
If I had to qualify my tutoring style, I'd say the most important thing that I emphasize is physically intuitive analogies, supported by illustration. The thing that always frustrated me about STEM education is how happy some teachers are to explain concepts entirely with math. While the math supporting the sciences is hugely important, it's not particularly exciting or memorable. I've always received great feedback around my insistence that my students not solve problems purely numerically, ... Read more

Math/Science (Chemistry, Physics, Biology), Test Prep (SAT, ACT, TEAS)
Greetings, Professional development is a process that occurs at every stage of one’s life and allows one to realize the potential embodied within the heart of our boldest dreams. Effective tutoring offers a profound level of engagement, wherein both the student and the tutor define and refine goals in their pursuit of excellence. I agree with Howard Gardner’s conclusion that there are multiple learning styles, yet seek to define an accurate means to appeal to a student’s learning styl... Read more
