Reliable retiree strong in several areas of education
I recently retired from the federal government. My sister is a long-time teacher and part-time tutor, and I would like the opportunity to pass on some of the knowledge I have accumulated in my lifetime.

I was in advanced classes from fourth through ninth grades, and took many honors classes in h... Read more
Abigail
Experienced Tutor in ESL/ESOL and English
Learning can be fun as well as focused and productive. With each student, I work to achieve that balance by getting to know you first in order to build a cooperative work relationship. And then setting clear goals. My methods include assessing a student's level at the beginning, and then setting clear, measurable objectives in order to focus our tutoring sessions.

Math guru...taking the stress out of math one session at a time

I have a Master of Science in Teaching Mathematics and I emphasize the teaching. I have been teach... Read more

Enthusiasm, Expertise and Experience
We are all life-long learners with a particular style of learning. When we discover what our strengths are each one of us can "cross-train" to help ourselves when we struggle with something new in learning.
