John
Strategic Problem Solving for Business, Economics, and Finance
I have been tutoring for over a decade, because I love the problem solving process not only helping you understand your material, but also the process of helping untangle you from the obstacles from your success. Unlike many tutors who focus on subject matter expertise, my focus is on finding better ways to link your understanding to your instructor’s expert presentation. Bluntly, your instructors are usually experts in their fields, so if subject matter expertise could solve your problems,... Read more

Myrrh
Mathematics Tutor
Throughout my long history as a teacher and principal in public school education, I have identified the best instructional practices that maximize student learning. I address all types of learning styles. I ensure that all prerequisite skills are mastered before moving through the next part of the curriculum.
