Dominika
Lewis & Clark Alum - Spanish, Russian, and Polish tutor
Hello! A little about me: I am passionate about teaching second languages because I believe it is great for brain development, maintaining memory, and expanding world-views. As well as teaching in small group settings, I enjoy one-on-one tutoring sessions especially since I believe personalized tutoring is the most effective and often most enjoyable way to learn a language! I enjoy using games and videos to make learning seem more like fun than work. I am originally from Massachusetts, but... 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

Ms. Celeste or, for smaller children, CeeCee.
I love words, languages, music, dancing...and people! I would like to help elementary-high school aged kids maximize their potential (and even some college athletes struggling with writing and test-taking). I value people's differences, but try to help them understand why some standards are important and how to master those skills. I laugh a lot! :-)... Read more

I am an ESL teacher with 10 years of experience

After that experience I knew without a doubt that I wanted to be an English teacher as my career. After returning to the states I completed my master's in TESOL. I have taught and tutored both community and academic English learners in the Portland area for the last eight years. I absolutely love meeting new p... Read more
