Katie
Math Tutor, Former HS Math Teacher, 10+ years tutoring experience

Paul
Exceptional English Tutor Specializing in Writing and Test Prep
I've been teaching and tutoring for over fifteen years and to me the most important aspect of teaching is that the student learns how to think for him or herself.

There must first and foremost be trust, so that the student feels comfortable learning with a particular person. This is also important for the teacher so they begin to understand how the student thinks, how the student learns and... Read more
