Tutor with a passion for teaching and learning
I'm originally from Anchorage, AK. I've lived in Portland mostly for the past seven years, while in undergraduate and graduate school at Lewis and Clark College and Graduate School of Education.

Clara
Experienced and knowledgeable Spanish and ESL Tutor

My ability to successfully teach my students foreign and/or second languages stems from over 10 years teaching languages abroad and domestically. Most importantly, I have combined my love of language learning and teaching in pursuit of a Master's degree from Stony Brook University with a concentration in Spanish linguistics. Throughout my professional tutoring career, I have taught stude... 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

Abigail
Experienced Tutor in ESL/ESOL and English
Learning can be fun as well as focused and productive. With each student, I work to achieve that balance by getting to know you first in order to build a cooperative work relationship. And then setting clear goals. My methods include assessing a student's level at the beginning, and then setting clear, measurable objectives in order to focus our tutoring sessions. I like to return to the student's goals and ascertain whether we have achieved those goals or not throughout our time together. C... Read more
