Ashley
College Grad with an English Degree
I am a college graduate with a degree in English literature. This means I have lots of experience with reading, writing, proofreading, and editing essays. I completed two years of a credential program for teaching when I realized I wanted to do my individualized teaching/instructing, and left the credential program. If there is one thing that I have learned in my life so far - it is that each person has a different learning style, and I will try my best to work with you and develop a meth... Read more

Have fun while improving your English conversation skills!

Tom
Science, Excel and Math Tutor
I have been inspired by a few standout teachers from my youth. These teachers were able to get me to come an hour before school to practice math exercises to compete in the state mathmatics competitions in California. I won a 2nd place trophy for freshman competitors but was humbled in subsequent tournaments. I went to Sonoma Stae University and majored in Chemistry and Physics. I then did graduate work in education, but left to work in the industry, where I worked as a chemist at Hewl... Read more
