Marc
Lifelong Learner
I'm half artist and half academic. Learning is terribly important to me, but so is self-expression. I encourage my students likewise to learn as much as possible about what interests them, and I encourage them to express themselves. I've been tutoring for over fifteen years, mostly adults at college level, but I have also taught adult English-language learners and special-ed high school students. I most enjoy working with students who come from very different backgrounds than I do. I m... Read more
Brenda
English tutor, test prep for new SAT and ACT, homework help.
My goal is to help students feel successful and confident in their school assignments, test preparation, and college applications. As a tutor and a mother, I have seen a great deal of anxiety over these pressures, which often hinders success. I want to help students enjoy learning and be proud of what they have produced, whether it’s a college essay, a research paper, or a literary analysis. My greatest satisfaction is to see students more relaxed and self-assured when they walk out my door, ... Read more
Joel
Tutor who has patience and has great customer service skills
I have tutored in the past. I have tutored people of all ages from young kids to adults. I enjoy it when my students learn how to do something that they did not know before. When I leave the student, they will have a better understanding of their computer. I do have patience and great customer service skills (listening, understanding, explaining, and demonstrating). I want to share my knowledge with someone who wants to learn. I want to make a difference in both our lives. So, you ... Read more

After that I completed my Masters degree in Spanish while teaching undergraduate Spanish courses at Portland State University where I am now an adjunct instructor.

Eric
Experienced ESL teacher ready to help you reach your goals
I have taught students of all ages and all skill levels in my over 15 years' career and one thing I've learned - I love helping people reach their ESL goals.

Mandarin Chinese! Fun and Practical. Start Speaking Right Away!
Dear Students, My name is Steve, and I am located in the Portland area. I lived abroad in Taipei, Taiwan for 7 years and studied Mandarin at the Mandarin Cultural Center University.
