Math and science made accessible

Abigail
Experienced Tutor in ESL/ESOL and English
Learning can be fun as well as focused and productive. With each student, I work to achieve that balance by getting to know you first in order to build a cooperative work relationship. And then setting clear goals. My methods include assessing a student's level at the beginning, and then setting clear, measurable objectives in order to focus our tutoring sessions. I like to return to the student's goals and ascertain whether we have achieved those goals or not throughout our time together. C... Read more

Reliable retiree strong in several areas of education
I recently retired from the federal government. My sister is a long-time teacher and part-time tutor, and I would like the opportunity to pass on some of the knowledge I have accumulated in my lifetime. I began reading at age three, and never stopped. In grade school, my parents twice were offered the chance to allow me to skip a grade. I had a superb education from grade school through college. I was in advanced classes from fourth through ninth grades, and took many honors classes in h... Read more

Dean
Photoshop and Illustrator for Animation and Video production!
As a production manager at a small animation company, I currently train new graduates coming out of Art Institute as we hire them right out of college... and I'm finding that while almost all of new hires are great artists, very few of them are ready to actually 'have a job'. The portfolios and resumes are great, but when it comes to real life animation production, a project that they may have trained on in college may have had a deadline of 2 or 3 months; But in real crunch-time production ...
