I also worked with the SMART program here in Northeast Portland. I receive so much energy from these innocent and eager children. Their enthusiasm is contagious. I worked a... Read more
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? Could there be more than one way to look at the problem? My goal is to build a safe environment where students can become critical thinkers and feel comfortable asking questions. 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

Noemie
Undergraduate Student With Experience in Volunteer Tutoring
I am currently an undergrad at Lewis & Clark college looking to help younger students succeed. Tutoring has personally helped me succeed in school through one-on-one learning, which gave me confidence in subjects I held insecurities about. Without tutoring, I don't think I would be as successful in academics as I am today, and I want to provide the same opportunity to other young students. I have worked as a volunteer tutor through Reading Partners-- where I worked one-on-one with element... Read more

Stephanie
English and History
I am passionate about learning and personal growth. I often enroll in online classes, read, and listen to podcasts/audiobooks to gain knowledge on various topics. I think this passion translates into being a good teacher, as well. During high school, I volunteered at the local elementary school tutoring second graders who struggled in math and reading. Teachers are often unable to provide as much one-on-one assistance as they would like, and I was able to assist more in this role. In law... Read more
