Peter C., Accounting Tutor

- Vancouver , Washington ( 98683 )
- 20 miles
As an accounting tutor, I realize that many of the concepts and techniques are not intuitive. At the same time, I can see the logical flow from one point to another.

While I am a native E... 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
