Brendan
I'm a passionate Humanist and plan to continue my own education.

I also mentored students through the college research and application process, as well as planned and administered educational feel trips and activities. I developed a passion and... Read more

I believe in interactive tutoring sessions. I have been teaching and tutoring English, Psychology and foreign languages since 1995. My greatest success with my tutees has come about through listening and appreciating their input and the integrity of their ideas. My years as an undergraduate and graduate student at UC Berkeley and UC Davis stressed the Socratic method of teaching. That is, the instructor and the student constructively argued his or her points of view, while listening, appr... Read more

I have also learned from others who taught me how to take tests. I have been a tutoring supervisor, I substitute teach, I teach Sunday School and work in AWANA. I have taug... Read more
Dominic
English and Writing Tutor
My name is Dominic, and I am currently a graduate student at the University of Southern California in Critical Study of film/cinema. I graduated from The Ohio State University in 2009, with a Bachelor of Arts with Honors in English, and a minor in Sociology. From a tutoring standpoint, I would prefer to help the student with the processes behind how things work rather than just showing or telling them. Understanding "why" something is is infinitely more useful than understanding tha... Read more

For as long as I can remember, I have been in love with words. When I first read Coleridge's poem "The Rime of the Ancient Mariner" in 8th grade, I fell in love with language, the manipulation of words as a means to affect an audience. Whether we manipulate language to communicate with one another or to compose a specific piece of writing, we start with words. Through words, we make our entrance into the world; through words, we chronicle our experiences, our ideas, our understanding, and som... Read more

I have had a love for education for most of my adult life. During both my associate's and bachelor's work, I tutored English and Reading as a part time job at both the collegiate and high school levels. After college, I taught high school level English and Reading to the 7th, 8th, 9th, and 11th grades. This has given me a well-rounded amount of experience and the ability to communicate on several levels. I tend to be outgoing and accepting of mistakes, as it is my personal philosophy that...
