Richard
Multiple Level Tutor
As a teacher with 20+ years of experience, I have planned, implemented, monitored, and assessed classroom instructional programs with effective measures and techniques which help improve student participation and learning.

Classrooms I have taught have achieved rates of 97% at or above average on the ISAT in math, as well as 85% achievement at or above av... Read more
Gustav
Creative, Versatile Tutor in Music, English, and Social Studies
For the last 8 years, I have been tutoring people of all ages in writing, social studies, and music. As a result, I'm able not only to craft individual lesson plans for each student, but also to develop a casual rapport that conduces to the learning process. My goal as a tutor is to help students share my excitement for music, writing, history, and the social sciences, and to make lessons fun without sacrificing academic rigor. I specialize in working with young kids (4-10) and high school st... Read more

Adrienne
Adrienne the MIT Grad
I've been tutoring since I was 16 years old-- I began tutoring my peers and continued tutoring school-aged kids through college and even graduate school. My areas of preferred expertise are K-12 Math and science and I'd include statistics in there as well. I went to MIT for my undergraduate education... on the back of a 1450/1600 on the SATs (way back then the SATs were out of 1600 points). I think math is cool. Very cool. And it can even be fun. I love math because it is the same in e... Read more
Valentin
Certified Latin tutor with 5 years of experience
I am Valentin, I am 26 years old and I am a certified Latin tutor. I learned this language in school when I was 12 years old and since then, I have not stopped learning. From that moment I was teaching my most relegated colleagues, so that what began as a spontaneous favor became my vocation in life. When I finished high school, I studied to be a certified teacher of classical languages, which also includes Ancient Greek (which I already knew from school) and Ancient World history. Then...

Joseph
Fusion/Prog. Rock Guitar Tutor
As an accomplished guitarist and Composition major at Columbia College Chicago I am constantly being tested on my knowledge of musical styles, forms, and most importantly to me, theory. When it comes to music theory and my guitar playing I try to interconnect the two so that my playing sounds educated and informed, but still tasteful and full of emotion. I've been teaching lessons for the past year and with each student I try to instill a sense of just how important theory and knowledge of th... Read more

Real Education begains with Self,before knowing something else!/?
I believe education comes from experience and Free thinking. What comes first the textbook or the context of experiences. I have tutored, mentored, and coached different ages and cultures of children. The universal key to teaching diversity is free thinking. The children have to understand that there are different ways to get the right answer. Just like they have different schools and subjects its all for the purpose to learn.... Read more
