The techniques I use are dialogues, reading articles from magazines, books, newspapers, ... Read more
Katy
College Counselor Focusing on the Right Fit
There are many great Educational Consultants and Independent College Counselors out there. However, you will pay for those services in a big way. I am unique in that I focus on students who are generally active with their college process but need a little bit of extra help. I can work with you intensely for 3-4 weeks to get that last essay or resume crafted or over the course of 6 months to a year to really dig deep and prepare. That is why I charge an hourly rate, versus a package rate. I ge... Read more

Urmee
Science / English / tutor
I am a college graduate from University of Nevada Reno. My area of concentration was biology and other sciences. I always wanted to teach but never had the right opportunity. I have lots of cousins, at different ages and I always help them with their homework. I have experienced being a teaching assistant several years ago and it was a joyful adventure. Children learn differently at different ages and as a tutor/ teacher it is important to keep that in mind. Not all kids will learn at the ... Read more

Tina
German native helps you to enhance your conversational fluency
Hallo und Guten Tag, I am a German native speaker with several college degrees from Germany and the US. Though I don't have a teaching degree, I have tutored many German students to help them become more fluent in English, and I can teach you my mother-tongue as well. As an immigrant I truly believe that the best way to learn a foreign language is to talk in complete sentences rather than learning single words, which you then have to put together in the correct order and tense. ...
