When I was in middle school, I fell in love with books. This has led to a career as journalist and television writer, and my first book will be published next year. All the while, I've tutored, both professionally and as a volunteer.

Ryan
Music teacher based in LA
- $45 / h
- 1 rating
- Los Angeles , California ( 90027 )
- 15 miles
In my time teaching, I've worked with students varying ages in a wide range of styles. My method primarily focuses on teaching my students how to practice properly, because without that skill the lessons alone are not enough to really achieve results. Additionally, effective practice doesn't necessarily mean hours upon hours everyday (although that's not a bad thing), it means making effective use of whatever time you do have, even if that's only 20-30 min a day. For some high school students... Read more

You're looking for a tutor because you need personalized attention, not another by-the-book description of how people learn. I can provide unique learning systems, not the same old same old. [As an example, here's one for free: when proofreading your own writing, always do so aloud; imagine someone has just handed you your essay and you are on your way to the stage to deliver it word for word to an audience -- as you read it for the first time. This is a proven system, the proof being the e... Read more

I have a bachelor's degree in Telecommunication/Journalism from Michigan State University. Immediately after graduation I worked in TV and news radio, but soon after moving to L.A.
