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

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

Full-time Coder, Part-time Tutor

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
