Charlotte
Tutor with a degree in Modern Literature
- $65 / h
- Orinda , California ( 94563 )
- 15 miles
I have a bachelor's degree in Modern Literature from UC Santa Cruz. Starting in high school, I had tutors help me in so many different subjects. In college, tutors became my peers. The one thing that separated the great tutors from the good ones was good communication. I'm a big fan of listening to a student's specific goals and then creating a plan that will fit their learning style. Because of this method, I like to ask new students a lot of questions regarding what their long-term and shor... Read more

Whole Person Tutoring: respecting your unique style of learning
- $75 / h
- Rodeo , California ( 94572 )
- 20 miles
As a young student I struggled with traditional methods of learning because it often felt like large parts of me, such as my feelings, intuitive impressions, visionary capabilities, hopes and dreams, and instinctive responses (did I like what I was studying?) were being left out of the equation. In other words, the content of study was "out there" and rather than ‘it’ interacting with me, it seemed like I had to leave myself to interact with ‘it’. Also, I wanted my studies to be passionate,... Read more

Armin
Bestselling Writer and Editor with 20 Years of Experience
- $65 / h
- Oakland , California ( 94607 )
- 25 miles
I'm the father of three and I've been writing professionally for more than 20 years. When I first started out, the words came easily. But after I'd been doing it for a few years I came to realize that writing isn't easy. Sure, there are a few people who have a natural gift. But for most of us, there's no magic pill; translating thoughts into words on a page takes hard work and commitment. I'm convinced that while not everyone can be a great writer, everyone can be a good writer--and I can... Read more
