Seraphina
Experienced Tutor in Science, Math and Technology
Throughout my experience in school, I have always found that it is good to enjoy a subject, but it is imperative to have an excellent teacher. Classes I have enjoyed the most are sometimes on unusual topics that are not my general favorites, but have an outstanding person teaching them. I also found I take great enjoyment in teaching. I find my own learning most effective when I have a deep understanding of the underlying principles, and adopt the same approach in my teaching style. I am ... Read more

Donna says that history is not about dead, old, white men
I have taught history for over 40 years in the typical classroom setting and as a tutor. My teaching experience includes middle school, high school, a community college, a college, and two universities. Tutoring should be personalized for the specific needs of the student, often with the objectives of not only improving their knowledge, but also providing them with an appreciation of the subject matter. That is to say, its practical values and those that enhance their understanding of ... Read more

Dyslexia in letters and numbers can pose a challenge to students but using kinesthetics can help. By tracing the letter or number, students can sense the motion of their fingers to determine whether it is a 5 or a 2 for example. I have 3 years experience working with dyslexic students and have many "tricks" to help them cope with their dyslexia. Read more

Yolanda
Experienced, well-regarded teacher
I've taught at the college level for nearly 50 years, which makes me not just old but also highly experienced. My former students rate me as effective not just as a tutor but also as a teacher and research supervisor. I have earned many teaching awards, all unsolicited. The one I'm proudest of is as one of Princeton Review's 300 Best Professors, a national ranking they did in 2012. What I treasure about tutoring is that aha moment that a student experiences when something unfamiliar or pr... Read more
