David
Cool and Simple Personalized French Tutoring
I graduated from the University of Virginia, where I obtained a BA in Drama. Since college, I've used translation, tutoring, and more recently, classroom education to help pay the bills.

I've been studying French since I was 12 years old, and I have a nu... Read more

Valerie
Writing Tutor with 5+ years of Experience
Hi, everyone! If you’re like most people, you’ve probably heard the quote, “Give a man a fish, and you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish, and you feed him for a lifetime.†This quote sums up my philosophy on teaching students to become better writers. Simply editing or proofreading a paper for a student will certainly help with that one essay. However, it is not the most effective way to help that student in the long run. Rather, I believe that teaching students to become better writers... Read more
