Experienced German, French, and English Writing Instructor
I have taught a variety of subjects at numerous levels of education: from preschoolers to community college to grad students.

Trained in the communicative approach, my students learn how to produce rather than "memor... Read more
Frank
Math and Physics tutor with Engineering PhD
I have tutored physics and math students since I was in college, with most of my emphasis on introductory physics courses for students in other departments (e.g. pre-med), and undergraduate math classes, especially single-variable calculus. In addition, I have tutored high school calculus and other math classes. I love working through problems with students and seeing when they grasp the methods and are able to apply them to solve new problems. I enjoy working with students at all stages, ... Read more

My passion for ESL started while I was a student at the U of Miami. I volunteered to help teach English as a second language to the Cuban refugees that fled Castro's Cuba. For many years I worked with the Philadelphia Board of Education and the Atlantic City Board of Education. Not only did I teach ESL to students (from kindergarten to adults), I also taught teachers how to teach ESL. I teach using life's everyday experiences.... Read more

I have used QuickBooks for many years. It was the program my own company used from the early 1990s to 2007, and when our company was acquired we continued to use QB. For many years I was the primary accounting person responsible for entry; even after that, I was the primary supervisor responsible for ensuring accuracy and consistency. I have not us Read more
Meryl
Engineering graduate specializing in chemistry
Hello! I'm a Portland native with a love for math, science and the outdoors. Combining these passions I studied Environmental Engineering at Cornell University. I especially enjoy chemistry and the amazing insights it can reveal about the world around you! Learning is not easy, it takes time, dedication and perseverance but with someone at your side to encourage you, answer questions, and help see things differently it can be much easier. This is why I decided to tutor, I want to help others ... Read more
Steve
Neuroscience PhD
I love to teach. My style, which got me A's in undergraduate and PhD school, is to extract the key concepts from a topic. This not only made it interesting but made it more natural memorizing lists of things (something I was never good at). Not only that, I feel my training method has helped my retain knowledge in my career as a Neuroscientist. Passing exams is one thing, but when people look to hire they want you to be fluent, confident, and (above all) interested in what you do. I ... Read more
Tim
I'm a college graduate looking to use my knowledge to help!
I recently graduated from Lewis & Clark College with a double major in Physics and Math. I have been an avid learner my whole life and love the beauty found within the sciences. Numbers and I have always gotten along, so math has always come naturally to me. Physics is just math in disguise so it seemed natural to pair the two in college. I like physics more because it tends to produce results that are more tangible than simply equations. I was a Lab TA for physics throughout my entire col... Read more

I think this technique will be useful for you as it was useful for me to... Read more
William
Historian and Writing Tutor
I'm Will. I graduated from Portland State University with a master's degree in history. I have worked as a college teaching assistant, a high school tutor, and volunteered in an after school homework club. I value taking complex ideas and communicating them in simple, clear language. I believe studying history is more than learning names and dates. I believe my knowledge and passion can bring history to life for students. While working as a teaching assistant, I graded student essays and ... Read more
