Erik
Physicist and Engineer
When I was working on my PhD in physics at Arizona State University, I spent 3.5 years as a teaching assistant. I taught labs and recitation classes for calculus and non-calculus based introductory physics classes.

Susan
M.Ed/Retired experienced and patient teacher (online only)
As a retired high school math teacher, I have over 23 years of classroom experience helping students make sense of math. I quickly assess why a particular topic or problem is confusing for each individual. Sometimes it only takes a session or two to make math come into focus for a person. Other students may need ongoing support or someone they know will be available when they get a particularly difficult assignment. It gives me great satisfaction when students achieve self-confidence. I h... Read more

Nathan
Language Arts Wizard
For nine months, I worked as a tutor at the MTSU Writing Center. My goal as a tutor is to help learners succeed by useful strategies for reading and writing. I believe that revising and editing skills are vital to the writer. It is rare that a first draft of any piece of writing will ever be "complete," and as a tutor, I enjoy offering feedback on what the writer can do to improve their piece of writing. Besides my experience as a tutor, I have had teaching certification in English (grades 7... Read more
