I always start with giving my student my respect as a human being and as a learner. My student is my professional reason for being. I teach to a student's strengths and work with my student to either overcome or work around deficits. I have over 40 years of experience working with children with special needs and this allows me to understand the frustrations that come with low achievement as well as the methods that work best to improve student performance. I have been a Teacher of Children... Read more

The Best Study Strategies in Tough Subjects from an Honors Grad
I have worked as a graphic designer and Photoshop artist for many companies and private clients. I have knowledge from CS3 to CC. The best way to learn Photoshop is through hands-on exploration, so I like to act as a guide more than a tutor! Read more

Help for your math needs!
I've had experience teaching and tutoring math as a grad student in math, and currently work as a math tutor at the community college. It's been very gratifying to take students who are struggling with math to the point where they are crying and get them to feel better about their progress. I try hard to prepare students not just for the class they're currently taking, but also give them a good background for future math classes. One of the stumbling blocks for some students is simple lack o... Read more
Irwin
High school Math and Science Tutor
I'm a retired Engineer who has transitioned to a new career as a tutor. My specialties area math, chemistry and physics 6-12th grade. I enjoy the challenge of helping students figure out the material and problems themselves by asking the right question at the right time. I tailor my style to the specific students learning style. I guide them through the material rather than doing it for them. I've been a homework helper volunteer at the Beaverton Library for the past year and have co... Read more

My name is Gokul. I am a recent graduate of Dartmouth College, where I studied computer science, philosophy, and completed my premed coursework. I took the MCAT in August 2022 and received a 100th percentile score. It is worth noting that I self-studied all of the biology, psychology, and sociology coursework required for the MCAT due to my rigorous academic commitments, so I am confident that the methods and approaches I used to learn these disciplines can help you, just as they helped me. ...

Graham
Dedicated Tutor for Math and Economics
Throughout my life I have enjoyed teaching and helping others. In high school and college, friends came to me for help in all subject areas; my teachers even grouped me with struggling students so that I could help them through difficult concepts and class work. I graduated valedictorian from Westview High School in Portland, OR with a weighted GPA of 4.23 and a class rank of 9/689. After high school I attended the University of Oregon Honors College for a B.A. in Economics with a minor in ... Read more
