Kelvin
Reading Comprehension & Essay Writing
Hello! I am a professor of English literature in the CUNY system, and have over a decade of experience teaching/demystifying the art of literary composition and analysis! Students are often drawn to literature because they are told that they are free to interpret texts in a number of ways, but then find they have difficulty achieving consistently good grades on their writing assignments. What's lacking, I have found, is an approach to reading & writing that provides students with concrete ... Read more
Dale
Wry Witty Writer
My philosophy towards education - To Read is to Learn, to Write is to Understand, to Teach is to Master. I feel that students must complete all the components of this philosophy to become truly proficient in literature and writing. Language is all around us: songs, poems, conversations, rhetoric, body language, signs, stories. To understand and apply language, we must take into account the wide diversity of language and learn what each can teach us. The final ingredient to becoming profic... Read more

I have over five years teaching and tutoring experience at both college and high school levels. I have received consistent positive feedback from students and administration. My background allows versatility as an instructor. I have studied... Read more

I've always loved helping people learn and improve, ever since middle school. Back then I would help my classmates study for exams, but eventually I moved on to a few different teaching jobs. I feel that my strength is breaking problems down into their most basic pieces which helps students quickly learn new things by making them more manageable. What are my qualifications? I graduated from RPI in 2019 with a dual degree B.S. in computer science and computational mathematics with a 3.77 GP... Read more

Successful Design Ninja
Howdy! I'm a successful corporate product and graphic designer who's always liked the feeling of teaching others something new. I am all about the old adage regarding teaching a man to fish versus just giving him a mackerel. My skills have brought me measured success in completing projects done for Walmart, Target, The Sharper Image, and other large retail channels. My philosophy in teaching is to not just teach the "how" -but more importantly the "why." Because I have experience from m... Read more

Hey, My name is Seada. I was a tutor a few years back for a child that lived in my building.
