Jared
Law School and University Graduate
I am an accomplished student and I am retired from a Law Office career. I taught overseas in China for a year, I am relaxed and have extensive knowledge in my subjects. Open your books? While in China, I taught Middle School Students and it was a very interesting experience. For one thing, a class of 60 students is very possible, whereas such a class here in the USA would be unwieldly. I was educated in Nyack, New York and California Colleges. I attended the New School in New York Cit... Read more

Maria L., BSCE, Licensed CE, Inst. Ass. for Resource, CCSD
I have tutored two elementary students who were learning ESL (English as Second Language) in Korea in the late '90s. That was my first experience for tutoring students. My original profession is not that of a teacher for I once practiced as a Civil Engineer. However after that experience, my career path changed. Since then, I realized that my passion was to teach children. It is quite rewarding when you see kids get excited after you teach them and they learn. I am currently ... Read more

Glenn
New Orleans musician, educated at Berklee College of Music
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've been a law enforcement officer since December 1970. During that time I worked and gained expertise in all facets of municipal/county law enforcement. Riding a motorcycle for 6 years made me an expert in traffic accident investigation. I then went to investigations where I worked Vice-Narcotics for several years, then moved to Violent crimes division dealing with the most serious crimes. I have had work assignments, which gave me expertise in investigations, interview and interrogation... Read more

LET'S MAKE LEARNING FUN!!!

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
David
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
