I have a Master's in Geography and a MBA. I've taught at two community colleges and tutored students at the collegiate level. I know the importance of elementary education and the trouble students have when they fall behind from personal experience. At times students need one-on-one attention with someone who listens to them to understand how they learn. No two students are alike and their tutoring should be customized to their needs. I enjoy tutoring individuals and groups and make it a... Read more

Christina
Fun learning; productive and result guaranteed
I taught myself English back in the early '80s in Beijing, China. When I came to America as a college student in 1988, nobody believed that I was not born and raised in America.

I used to teach English in China, I have been teaching Chinese at my church, and I tutor Chinese for high school and colle... Read more
