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

Tyrus
Math, Physics and Chemistry
I have always been interested in explaining things to expand people's knowledge. I once considered going into teaching, but at the time there were no jobs for people completing degrees in education. I once taught a course in materials science for the University of Portland and electrical circuits for Portland Community College, but there were not enough teaching opportunities to make a living. Now that I am retired, covering all living expenses is not a principal concern. I am interested i... Read more

Mary
Pulitzer-Prize winning journalist
I worked as a writing coach with a team at The Oregonian, in addition to writing editorials (opinion pieces) and working as a copy editor. My second favorite thing in life is writing. But my first favorite is helping other people make their writing clear and sharp. I never impose my ideas on students, but instead know how to help you figure out your writing voice, and feel successful in finding your own writing style. I have a bachelor's degree in English literature and took enough course... 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
