- 15 miles
Both of my parents majored in English when they were in college, and they passed much of their knowledge on to me throughout my childhood. As a result, English was always my best subject in Elementary and High School. I love the English language, along with its nuances and its quirks. Late in High School, I discovered I also love Public Speaking. I competed three years in Forensics (Speech and Debate) on the High School level, and another three on the collegiate level. I like to think of ... Read more

English, ACT reading and writing, college essay tutoring
I have taught ESL for 15 years in many different types of schools. As I taught ESL, I also prepared pre-college ESL learners for the ACT in reading and writing.

Michael
Interdisciplinary Educator: Physical Science and its requisite Math.
I understand what it's like to feel completely lost, or just need some extra guidance. I worked in youth mental health (BA in Psychology) before returning to college to study physics after taking no math courses for about 9 years. I had to re-teach myself high school math before starting on my journey, after which I was thrown into high level math courses in rapid succession. I know what it's like to be intimidated by the material and unsure of my abilities. Online self-help resources were v... Read more
