Janet
Science Rocks! says Janet
Hi. I am fascinated by how the world works and how science attempts to predict and explain the behavior of matter and living things. This early fascination led me to study science in college and become a high school science teacher. I am also fortunate to work as a state park ranger, in the summer, leading programs on local history, hikes, and animals with children, campers and park visitors. As a teacher, I know all too well, the confusion and frustration that can result when students ar... Read more

Over 15 years of classroom experience!

I have a bachelors in film production. I have made many short films for fun and for college classes. I have also acted in a lot of theatre. I love to discuss film theory and get others interested in ... Read more

Danny
Experienced Teacher, Artist, and Entrepreneur
I graduated from Portland State with a Masters in Education and Bachelors in History after a decade of classes across every subject. Whether tutoring for after school programs or teaching in a regular classroom I have found that creating unique content tailored for the student's goals, abilities, and interests best facilitates learning in any environment. Being able to bring meaningfulness to content, explore it more fully, and attach it to other important concepts is one of the most challen... Read more
