Tim
I'm a college graduate looking to use my knowledge to help!
I recently graduated from Lewis & Clark College with a double major in Physics and Math. I have been an avid learner my whole life and love the beauty found within the sciences. Numbers and I have always gotten along, so math has always come naturally to me. Physics is just math in disguise so it seemed natural to pair the two in college. I like physics more because it tends to produce results that are more tangible than simply equations. I was a Lab TA for physics throughout my entire col... Read more
Steve
"Retired" PhD economist, still an active academic researcher
Have taught economics at universities -- micro, macro international and econometrics -- while doing research. Then I concentrated on research. Instead of my research interests narrowing over time as usually happens, the research path before me broadened. Now -- "retired" -- I retain university connections. Understanding economics is difficult for most students, at least partly evidencing the difficulty of teaching economics to classes comprised of students with diverse backgrounds. One outco...

Noemie
Undergraduate Student With Experience in Volunteer Tutoring
I am currently an undergrad at Lewis & Clark college looking to help younger students succeed. Tutoring has personally helped me succeed in school through one-on-one learning, which gave me confidence in subjects I held insecurities about. Without tutoring, I don't think I would be as successful in academics as I am today, and I want to provide the same opportunity to other young students. I have worked as a volunteer tutor through Reading Partners-- where I worked one-on-one with element... Read more
Corie
Experienced College-Level Tutor and Professional Writer
Between my resume and my education, I know what it takes to make writing eloquent and compelling. I love helping YOU discover what "good writing" means and using your new skills to get high marks on essays and on exams. I don't proofread and edit your work; I guide you on your path to making your writing better so you can be successful on your own. I am a grammar nerd with a love for MLA (and experience and respect for APA), the oxford comma, and crafting a thesis you can support with solid ... Read more

Ph.D Graduate Student Researcher working on cutting edge AI research
Hi, I am Raphael a PhD student at OHSU. I completed my undergraduate in computer science and was a teaching assistant at university level for a year. I enjoy coding in my free time as well. My focus at OHSU is on cancer research and the application of deep learning systems such as Variational Auto Encoders using python. During my studies, I encountered many people who saw the benefit of being able to code, yet they always felt that they were not smart enough to do so! I disagree! Ever... Read more

Amarylis
Experienced Elementary Ed Teacher and Tutor in Reading, Writing
Hello, I taught first grade for 18 years. I especially enjoyed helping children to begin reading and writing and to help them to really understand math concepts, with the use of lots of manipulatives. I also loved really getting to know the children and watching them love learning. Finally, I very much enjoyed the camaraderie of working with the support professionals. (Reading coordinator, special ed teacher, etc) We were a team that put together the best possible programs for the childre... Read more
