I'm currently an Engineering student at Clark College and I'm planning on transferring to New Mexico Tech in the fall of 2015. I was in the banking industry for over 10 years, from retail banking to cash vault services to credit card processing, before deciding to go back to school a couple years ago. Before I started at Clark, I volunteered for a year through AmeriCorps. I was placed at the WorkSource in Vancouver and I was able help to people of my community find jobs by leading workshops o...

My name is Tyler B., I graduated from the University of Northern Colorado in 2015 with a BA in History Secondary Education. I specialized in European History, but rather than limit my teaching to content I prefer to teach History and Social Studies via the methods and practices of professional Historians.

Dominika
Lewis & Clark Alum - Spanish, Russian, and Polish tutor
Hello! A little about me: I am passionate about teaching second languages because I believe it is great for brain development, maintaining memory, and expanding world-views. 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

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
Stephen
Experienced art teacher who focuses on skill and technique
We make art because it lets us communicate the things inside us that language has difficulty describing. Sometimes it is deep love for a parent, spouse, friend, or child. Sometimes it is wonder and awe at the beauty of nature and the world around us. At other times it is a suffering inside that is hard to deal with. For all these reasons to describe our emotions, often when we start creating something, our hands are unable to translate what our minds can picture. They might be able to creat... Read more

During college, I served as an elementary school tutor at Waddell Elementary for 2 years. I tutored two students in reading, math, spelling, vocabulary and science. We used a variety of games - such as hangman, word match etc. to learn new vocabulary words. Both of my students were very visual, so we used visual examples to help them think about ad Read more

Most teachers lack the tim... Read more
