Chad
Former teacher turned web developer and designer
There aren't a lot of people who can program a web application, but also comfortably speak in front of a group of teenagers. When I graduated with a Bachelor's degree in Theology, Philosophy, and Catechetics, I had to grow out my facial hair so I would actually look older than the youth I would be working with. I started out as a youth minister for junior high and high school students, then a substitute teacher, then a full time high school teacher. When I started a family, I needed to actual... Read more

Dawn
Tutor, Elementary Tutoring. References available.
Hello, I am happy that you are getting a chance to read this. I have been a volunteer at the local school in the area where I live for 3 years now. I enjoy helping the elementary children very much. I try to make their learning experience fun and exciting. I enjoy teaching spelling, math, and vocabulary. It seems that children do not get involved in enough reading these days. I try to stress to them that it is very important. It is a everyday part of our lives. I also try to tell all ... Read more

I recently retired from active duty military with 20 years of service. I was an Air Force Weather Forecaster during my entire service commitment (1991-2011).

I am very easy going but can keep a students attention. I have been told on many occasions that I am a ... Read more
Jennifer
Gentle Spanish and Arabic tutor.
I’m recently retired from government service. As part of my job, I taught introductory Arabic to small groups (2-10) of adult coworkers twice a year for 12 years. That was a 20-hour, semi-immersion style class held in agency classrooms. Because students often asked for follow-on instruction, I created an intra-agency blog with fun vocabulary and grammar exercises and Arabic cartoons. When not teaching, I translated Arabic daily for 20 years, and translated Spanish occasionally. My DLPT scores... Read more

I became the high school assistant principal for two years and then was asked to become the high school principal, which I did for five years. I stepped down so I could go back into teaching and finish my PhD. I taught English and French for three y... 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
