Bill
Seasoned English Teacher - Tutor for Writing, Reading, Test Prep
All kids can learn, so it is imperative to meet them where they are and value where they are. From this place of acknowledgement and respect, I feel like I stand a chance of engaging kids in meaningful inquiry of their lives through literature and written expression. Once I know the student, then we can proceed to build on their skills. I listen well, and I encourage students to learn for the sake of learning, not necessarily to improve grades or test scores (although, those improvements wil... Read more
Bob
Long time math tutor great at building confidence!
I have been interested in science since I was very young. This interest led me to pursue a degree in Mathematics. After getting my B.S. in Math, I entered a graduate degree program in Physics. I taught Physics labs and also assisted my advisor with his research that was published in The Astrophysical Journal. Eventually I left that program and became an Actuary, which require many addition years of study. During my undergraduate years I worked as the lead tutor in the university Math Lab. ... Read more

Ali
Experienced SQL Server Trainer
Hi. I am IT professional and have been working with SQL Server for 16+ years and I do it with a passion. I have trained many engineers at my work that were initially reluctant to dive into database but after a session or two were comfortable enough to start looking around themselves. And to me this is the reward of tutoring where you see someone grow and learn and get better - from this both individual and teams benefits. I have been very lucky to work with great engineers and had a great... Read more
