Susan
M.Ed/Retired experienced and patient teacher (online only)
As a retired high school math teacher, I have over 23 years of classroom experience helping students make sense of math. I quickly assess why a particular topic or problem is confusing for each individual. Sometimes it only takes a session or two to make math come into focus for a person. Other students may need ongoing support or someone they know will be available when they get a particularly difficult assignment. It gives me great satisfaction when students achieve self-confidence. I h... Read more

Dedicated tutor specializing in Biology and Math coursework
Although I love to learn, I thoroughly enjoy helping others to find their potential and see them succeed! I have tutored privately for the past two and a half years.

I guide them through the material rather than doing it for them. I've been a homework helper volunteer at the Beaverton Library for the past year and have co... Read more
Marisa
Bilingual Japanese/English Tutor
Hi, I'm Marisa! I was born and raised in Japan until the age of 13, after which I moved to Oregon. In Japan, I attended an international school, where I grew up speaking both languages. I spent a total of 19 years of my life in Japan and consider myself bi-cultural. I understand the intricacies of each culture very well, which I think is an integral part of learning a language. Our thoughts determine how we speak. I graduated from the State University of New York - Binghamton with a degree ... Read more
