Thomas
Political Science Professor with 10+ Years of Experience
I taught courses in political science for more than ten years. It was not a matter of addressing students in a large lecture hall. I interacted with students in settings that facilitated discussion. My students learned to make arguments and to defend them. The courses that I taught included all the major subfields of political science, but they focused on the American political tradition. Where appropriate, I assigned readings from primary sources, because I found that these require a... Read more

Henry
Patient and skillful tutor in writing, grammar and literature
I love to learn and to help others learn, a pleasure I had for nearly forty years as a college instructor in writing and literature at The College of Wooster in Ohio.

I worked with writers from those having basic difficulties to sophisticated seniors working on complex research pap... Read more
Colin
Let's learn about history and music together!

On the music side of things, I took jazz guitar lessons and formed my own band. We played around town, eventually recording some of our own material. In college, I continued pursuing both of these passions in college while adding in tutoring. To apply what I was learning as a music major in the communi... Read more
