Steve
Neuroscience PhD
I love to teach. My style, which got me A's in undergraduate and PhD school, is to extract the key concepts from a topic. This not only made it interesting but made it more natural memorizing lists of things (something I was never good at). Not only that, I feel my training method has helped my retain knowledge in my career as a Neuroscientist. Passing exams is one thing, but when people look to hire they want you to be fluent, confident, and (above all) interested in what you do. I ... Read more

Paul
Exceptional English Tutor Specializing in Writing and Test Prep
I've been teaching and tutoring for over fifteen years and to me the most important aspect of teaching is that the student learns how to think for him or herself. Without that, there is no real learning. This begins with the relationship between teacher and student. There must first and foremost be trust, so that the student feels comfortable learning with a particular person. This is also important for the teacher so they begin to understand how the student thinks, how the student learns and... Read more
