Elizabeth
Arabic literacy is my passion. How can I help you?
Hello, My name is Elizabeth, and I am a fifth year undergraduate student of Arabic Language and Literature at Portland State University. (That is simply a very formal way for me to say that I am also a language learner, though perhaps I am at a different stage than you are.) I am literate in classical Arabic and I can hold a basic conversation in the Levantine dialect (spoken in Syria, Jordan, Palestine, etc.). My most recent rating from the American Council on the Teaching of Foreign Lang... Read more

elementary education, biology, math up to algebra, ESL!

I have worked as a college teaching assistant, a high school tutor, and volunteered in an after school homework club. I value taking complex ideas and communicating them in simple, clear language.

Kathleen
Katy - Art Educator, Illustrator, and Watercolor Artist
My inspiration is nature. I grew up on the great plains of central Wyoming - which has proved to be much of my artwork's subject matter. This constant exposure to nature in the Rocky Mountains has given me inspiration to recreate it's beauty through original artwork. Artists like Claude Monet and Renoir also inspire me to use nature as my muse through their color pallet and subject matter. My style comes through my line work - the complicated forms and shapes that simple lines take o... Read more

Russell
Math Genius Makes Algebra through Calculus Fun and Easy
! Due to health problems, I am temporarily unavailable for tutoring.! For many years I've tutored math, been employed as a mathematician, and worked on mathematical discoveries. I've worked wonders with students one on one using two deep principles: (1) If you understand the math, you will easily remember the formulas and know how to apply them. (2) Solving complex math problems involves breaking them up into small easy steps (which is teachable). I teach students how to tap their inner g... Read more
