David
New Middle/High/College Tutor Specializing in English and Drums
Hello there! My name is David W. and my wife and I currently reside in beautiful Beaverton, Oregon. I am new to tutoring, but have always loved seeing the process of learning and seeing the progression that a person can go through as they're learning a new skill or simply seeing that "eureka" moment when everything starts to click! Experiencing those feelings myself, I want to bring that experience to anybody wanting to learn or break through those barriers that seem impossible to climb. It... Read more
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

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.

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

Stephen
Experienced art teacher who focuses on skill and technique
We make art because it lets us communicate the things inside us that language has difficulty describing. Sometimes it is deep love for a parent, spouse, friend, or child. Sometimes it is wonder and awe at the beauty of nature and the world around us. At other times it is a suffering inside that is hard to deal with. For all these reasons to describe our emotions, often when we start creating something, our hands are unable to translate what our minds can picture. They might be able to creat... Read more

Writing & Literary Studies
I'm a huge fan of the writing process and an even bigger fan of working with students one-on-one. I'm highly empathetic and I live for sitting down with a student, learning about their writing project (whatever it may be), and helping them formulate their ideas into cohesive written expression, step-by-step. I worked as a Writing Center Consultant at my alma mater, where I assisted students with any and all kinds of writing assignments. I especially love brainstorming and editing for gramma... Read more
