Tim - Math, English and Science Tutor
I was an excellent student in both high school and college. My GPA in both was 3.8 or higher. I have earned A grades in every math class since my sophomore year of high school. I also consider myself an excellent writer, and I have also consistently earned excellent grades. I have also written several movie reviews for fun! If I'm not mistaken, I still have my notes and some textbooks from both college math and English. I often stayed after class or lab to help other students with their... Read more

Justin
English Tutor and Proofreader: Critical, Creative Reading and Writing
English language and literature are passions of mine, and my approach to tutoring is to try to inspire the same enthusiasm in pupils. This requires conveying a sense of appreciation for storytelling and awe at the power of the written word. Engagement with texts that will interest students is key. My tutoring strategy involves helping students realize their own way of understanding and using language. I strive to encourage learners to create their own proper ways of interpreting and expressi... Read more
Stephen
Experienced art teacher who focuses on skill and technique
We make art because it lets us communicate the things inside us that language has difficulty describing. Sometimes it is deep love for a parent, spouse, friend, or child. Sometimes it is wonder and awe at the beauty of nature and the world around us. At other times it is a suffering inside that is hard to deal with. For all these reasons to describe our emotions, often when we start creating something, our hands are unable to translate what our minds can picture. They might be able to creat... Read more

Masters Grad with Specialization in Politics, History and English
During college, I served as an elementary school tutor at Waddell Elementary for 2 years. I tutored two students in reading, math, spelling, vocabulary and science. We used a variety of games - such as hangman, word match etc. to learn new vocabulary words. Both of my students were very visual, so we used visual examples to help them think about ad Read more

My name is Anita. I am a certified elementary teacher. I currently teach first grade in the Reynolds School District. I have experience at most grade levels.

Most teachers lack the tim... Read more
