Paola

Italian, bilingual, patient teacher.

Having an Italian father and an American mother I had to grow up bilingual. Half of the family only spoke Italian and the other half English. I grew up in Italy so I know the language and the culture and the differences between living in Italy and in the US. Subtle differences such as when you're offered something saying "yes, thank you" as opposed to "yes, please". I know first hand the challenges, and benefits, of handling 2 different languages, and as I teach Italian to my adoptive niece... Read more

William

Tutor of Mathematics and Computer Science

Mathematical concepts have always come easy to me. It is a talent I was born with and enjoyed every subject from arithmetic, to geometry and trig, algebra and calculus, linear algebra and real analysis. It was an easy transition to computer science. My career took me from database programming to web development and continues to evolve. I have found that the most common problem a student has with any higher mathematical concept is a building block that was missing or overlooked. My responsibi... Read more

Evan

Spanish tutor interested in/enthusiastic about teaching Spanish

My enthusiasm and passion for Spanish began in middle school and developed throughout my high school and college years. Having immersed myself in the study of Spanish for so long, I now like teaching the subject because I find it fun to decode and recode the words of two languages. I enjoy working with people to help them develop skills. I am amiable, knowledgeable, patient, and can break down the concepts in a way that people can understand and from which they can benefit. Currently, I am... Read more
