Justin
English Tutor and Proofreader: Critical, Creative Reading and Writing
English language and literature are passions of mine, and my approach to tutoring is to try to inspire the same enthusiasm in pupils. This requires conveying a sense of appreciation for storytelling and awe at the power of the written word. Engagement with texts that will interest students is key. My tutoring strategy involves helping students realize their own way of understanding and using language. I strive to encourage learners to create their own proper ways of interpreting and expressi... Read more
Alan
Alan-Photographer and Educator
As a person who has worked as a professional educator and photographer, I strive for excellence. That is my guiding principle.

My final project was a tutoring program I created between my third-graders and a kindergarten classroom. In my... Read more

Robin
U.C. Berkeley English Tutor: Reading, Writing, Results!
I was a child who hated reading. I became an adult who devours books. That evolution gives me a unique insight into what's possible. Everyone is a reader. Everyone is a writer. We just need to cultivate the seeds within. While I've been a professional writer for 25 years, tutoring has always been my most rewarding work. I met weekly with a middle-school girl of immigrant parents who was struggling with vocabulary, grammar, and book reports. Through our partnership and her dedication, she we... Read more

Cory
Passionate Tutor in Math, Logic, & Physics
I am a very passionate teacher with a lot of experience. My education begins with a Physics BA degree from Colby College in the beautiful state of Maine where I also served as a Teaching Assistant to my advisor. Later I realized that I had studied so much Philosophy at Colby that it inspired me to go to Virginia Tech to do my Master's degree in that very subject! Specifically I did my MA degree on Logic, which, just like my Physics degree, involves a great deal of Mathematics. Finally, I fe... Read more
