Peter C., Accounting Tutor
- $35 / h
- Vancouver , Washington ( 98683 )
- 20 miles
As an accounting tutor, I realize that many of the concepts and techniques are not intuitive. At the same time, I can see the logical flow from one point to another. I have a knack for breaking big problems down into small bites and connecting procedures to the big picture. Also, as a returning adult student, I have great empathy with students who are trying to juggle school, work, and family commitments and I am flexible in working around other people's schedules. While I am a native E... Read more

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

Russell
Math Genius Makes Algebra through Calculus Fun and Easy
! Due to health problems, I am temporarily unavailable for tutoring.! For many years I've tutored math, been employed as a mathematician, and worked on mathematical discoveries. I've worked wonders with students one on one using two deep principles: (1) If you understand the math, you will easily remember the formulas and know how to apply them. (2) Solving complex math problems involves breaking them up into small easy steps (which is teachable). I teach students how to tap their inner g... Read more
