Jerry
Experienced college math teacher
I have been teaching at Reed College since 1989 and now am looking to do some tutoring beyond that venue in anticipation of retiring soon. In light of my work experience, probably I am best suited for now to work with advanced high school students or college students, or with precocious younger students. My teaching method starts with trying to find the student's points of strength and understanding, and then building on those to address challenges or difficulties. I enjoy helping peop... Read more

Aaron
Writing, English Grammar, Biblical Studies, Bicycle Maintenance
My love for writing comes out of a passion for learning the craft of good storytelling. This has led me to write a book, pursue certificates in creative writing, and to become as ferocious of a reader as I am able. After all, the best writers were even better readers! With a B.A. in Biblical Studies I learned not only how to be familiar with the Christian Bible, but how to assess and look at it exegetically; to explore its nuances and hidden gems with regard to it's fascinating and diverse...
