Kristin
Passionate English/Language Arts Tutor
Hello! My name is Kristin, and I am a New York State Certified English Language Arts Educator for Grades 7-12. I am very passionate about reading, writing, and teaching, and I would love to help you grow as a person in the literary world! I have taught in various school districts in Upstate New York, ranging from grades 2-12.

Adam
Physics, Math, Bio, Chem and Standardized Exam Tutor
I'm an expert tutor for academic science (Physics, Biology and Chemistry) and standardized exams (SAT Suite, ACT, AP) with 20 years of experience.

Philip
An English tutor with a knack for essays and literary criticism
- $30 / h
- Big Indian , New York ( 12410 )
- 30 miles
My name is Philip, and I know all about how a little bit of extra help can turn a student's academic career around. When I was in 3rd grade, I had problems learning the rules of writing. I just couldn't understand how much space I was supposed to put in between words, why I couldn't make some words bigger than others, and why I wasn't supposed to quadruple space my journal entries (I had seen a double-spaced document and thought it looked nice). Thus, I was instructed to visit an in-school tu... Read more

Feeling frustrated?........

I returned to school as an adult because I found my strengths and knew what I wanted to do in my lifetime: help children find confidence and feel successful in the learning environment! I ran my own preschoo... Read more
Elisabeth
Experienced and Individualized Instruction
- $50 / h
- Maplecrest , New York ( 12454 )
- 40 miles
Teacher certification only formalized my natural inclination to nurture the inquiring minds of children. I have a patient and realistic approach framed on identifying and assessing each student and topic individually. Student-led and discovery learning methods are augmented by direct instruction as needed to maximize interest and ownership of information being shared. Timeliness, work ethic and neatness are inherent expectations of lessons and quality of character is imparted as mutual res... Read more
