Wendy
Providing Reading and Writing Support for all Ages
My teaching experience began in Seattle in 2005, where I worked with diverse groups of students in low-income neighborhoods to provide them with garden-based education in schools and after-school centers through a small non-profit, Cultivating Youth. I was pleased to instill in these students an interest in science and nature while they inspired me to take my teaching career abroad. Since then I have taught English in Southeast Asia, worked to assess grassroots education efforts with a large ... Read more

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. Without that, there is no real learning. This begins with the relationship between teacher and student. 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

Zack
Licensed Teacher for Math, Chemistry and Physics!
Hi There! I'm Zack! I'm a physics and chemistry instructor at a private high school. A teacher must consider the needs of every student and make plans to accommodate, shift, change and accommodate again in order to reach every mind. Instruction is the foremost goal, and while many will learn through a carefully composed plan, there inevitably will be others who need further clarification. There must be an ability for a teacher to adapt how they convey their ideas in an attempt to reach ev... Read more
