John
Duke Grad Specializing in Writing, Math, and Study Skills
Hey there. My name is John, and I am a teacher, tutor, and academic coach. Through my experiences as an educator, I've recognized that many students are not being taught the fundamentals of learning. Additionally, many families are underserved by the educational system and traditional tutors. Both options often focus on memorization over understanding, testing over critical thinking, and passing over growing, problem-solving, and living to one's full potential. Based on these observations,... Read more

ESL can be fun!
Back in 1977 I got my undergraduate degree in Spanish...(But) since then, I have fallen in love with reading English---be it poetry, representational fiction, biography, philosophy, you name it; but most of all the short story-novel media. This means native English authors (eg. Hemingway, Eliot, Lawrence) and folks who have their art in English translation (Hesse, Mann, Jung). My interest, activity was not academic in nature, but escapist. I am also somewhat of an amateur poet and story wr... Read more
Christopher
Harvard grad with perfect SAT & ACT who coaches to top results
I mainly offer two services: test prep and college counseling. TEST PREP: I obtained perfect scores on both the SAT and the ACT, as well as 99th percentile results on the PSAT, GRE, and LSAT. I aim to help students maximize their performance on test day through a combination of analytics, neuroscience, and psychology. My lesson plan is tailored for each student, and my approach is highly interactive. And the results speak for themselves; my students' score gains regularly triple or quadrup... Read more

I am retired from teaching resource in California. I love helping students learn to read and I am good at it. My favorite thing about tutoring? The kids, of course, and seeing them learn. Seeing eyes light up when a child "gets it." Seeing the self esteem go up too. I was trained in a unique program through UC Berkeley. We learned to plan lessons at just the right level for the student after close analysis of their reading style. These lessons coach the child to notice and use the me... Read more
