Nicole
Compassionate Reading and Writing Tutor
Tutoring Style: I believe the best way to help my students learn is through asking why. Why is their answer the right answer? Why is it perhaps wrong?

Not only do I want my students to be able to get to the correct answer when they're with me, but I want them to learn the skills needed to solve problems when I am no... 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
