Justin
English Tutor and Proofreader: Critical, Creative Reading and Writing
English language and literature are passions of mine, and my approach to tutoring is to try to inspire the same enthusiasm in pupils. This requires conveying a sense of appreciation for storytelling and awe at the power of the written word. Engagement with texts that will interest students is key. My tutoring strategy involves helping students realize their own way of understanding and using language. I strive to encourage learners to create their own proper ways of interpreting and expressi... Read more

Dominika
Lewis & Clark Alum - Spanish, Russian, and Polish tutor

As well as teaching in small group settings, I enjoy one-on-one tutoring sessions especially since I believe personalized tutoring is the most effective and often most enjoyable way to learn a language! I enjoy using games and videos to make learning seem more like fun than work. I am originally from Massachusetts, but... Read more

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
