I have Bachelor of Science degrees in Physics and Electrical Engineering and PhD in Physics. I have more than 10 years of experience in teaching math, physics, and engineering courses to science and non-science students at UMCP, Virginia Tech, and in Switzerland. I am a dedicated teacher and I always took the extra effort to spend time with students outside regular class hours to help them learn. It is from these individual sessions that I find the students learn the most. My tutoring sty... Read more

I started gaining practical teaching experience as a martial artist in high school, which ultimately encouraged me to major in English Education. Four years later, I graduated college with a dual degree in Professional Writing and in Secondary Education. But rather than take the route of teaching in a standard classroom, I opted to gain practical experience by writing for both online and print-based publications. My return to teaching happened in a dance classroom, and that is where I am c... Read more

Experienced Math and Reading Tutor, Teaching for 10+ years!

I set up victories for my students - by breaking things down into attainable chunks so that my students can taste success, build their confidence, and move on to more challenging work. More than teaching just a subject, I teach my students how to be resilient learners, and how use their teacher feedback for growth. How students feel about math, reading, any academic area will shape how they think - and I work with my students to show them they CAN do anything they put their mind to. I h... Read more

Hi, I love academics and I love teaching - I understand math from all angles (pun intended). I specialize in helping students see problems from a perspective that makes sense to them. If you understand the principles of a problem, there is no memorizing, it becomes natural and easy. I also enjoy teaching Science ( Physics, Chemistry and Biology), English (writing, reading, vocabulary, literature), Study Skills, Common Core subjects, SAT prep, and organizational skills. I taught in a conven... Read more

I learned to incorporate business training and development (T&D) best-practices, ... Read more
Dorothee
Certified Exam Prep. Tutor + Native Speaker: HS, College, Business
I love teaching because I constantly see how students thrive if they have the right tools to learn German. In my classes German is comprehensive, fun, and yet straightforward. I like to find ways that make learning German easier, and more time-efficient. Many students lose interest in learning a language because of a cookie cutter approach. Here, it's the opposite; lessons are very individual and carefully customized to the preferences, weaknesses, and strengths of my students. Native ... Read more

I have mentored emerging and experienced filmmakers (young and old) at all stages of the production cycle. Films that have been mentored by me have been broadcast on television, participated successfully in film festivals, won awards and have secured distribution. Filmmaking is like speaking a langua...

Bring your startup or other project to life
I love to help people to develop and communicate their ideas. Whatever you're trying to accomplish, it is essential to be able to effectively appreciate and convey how you are unique and what value you can offer. As an author of Valley Speak (highlighted in the Wall Street Journal, page one of the "Merc," and more), I am an expert on Silicon Valley and many of the technologies that thrive here. Whether you are held back by the English language, not sure how to effectively pitch your idea, or... Read more
Tim
Computer Science and Biology Tutor: Employee of MIT & Harvard Lab
Hello! My name is Tim and I have been tutoring since I was a high school student. I initially tutored introductory level math classes, but have since moved on into my field of specialty which is now Computer Science, Programming, and Biology. I graduated from the University of Maryland: College Park with a degree in Computer Science (UMD is a top 15 ranked CS school) and received high honors (very rarely given) by the honors program within the department. During my undergraduate years, I was... Read more
