Toni
Toni, a tutor equally at home in Humanities and Sciences.
Not so long ago the goal of education was to shape the thinking of younger generations so that, with solid background knowledge, they could, in turn, add wisdom to the common store. Since reasoning, interpretative, and problem solving skills are needed across the spectrum, different disciplines were interwoven and 'classics' -that is, the common pool of knowledge that had proved valuable and fertile over time- highly respected and heavily studied. All that has changed, in a misguided effort ... Read more
Joseph
Instructor in Public Policy and Political Science
After leaving the US Navy in 2004, I started attending UNC Charlotte because it was located near where my parents lived. From 2005-2008, I earned two Master's Degrees, one in Liberal Studies and one in Ethics and Applied Philosophy. From 2009-2015, I earned a PhD in Public Policy. I consider myself to be an expert in public policy and political science, based off of my doctoral education, with a wide variety of research experiences ranging from education policy to urban policy.

Sierra
Kindergarten to 8th grade tutor
I believe that each child has the ability to learn. They should be given the time, attention and help they need in areas where they are not as confident in, in order for them to succeed. There is not just one way to learn. I try to get to know the child in a way that I can get to know their learning style. By learning his or her style, I will be able to adapt lessons so that he or she is able to better understand the material. It is not fair for someone to have to feel lost or continue to str...

Science and Math can be fun
I tutored Biology, Chemistry and Pre-calculus classes during my junior and senior years of high school. It was a one-to-one interaction with 4 students, in which I had to tailor concepts to their individual learning methods. For example, one student liked to know every reason behind every fact, or every connection between materials, while another student only understood concepts through analogies. Even though I am a visual learner, I adopted the different styles the students best understoo... Read more
