Elementary Tutoring (For Grades K-9)
Welcome! Let me tell you a little bit about myself. I have been tutoring for over 6 years now and have teaching experiences as well. Although I love both experiences, tutoring brings the added benefits of being able to customize lessons in order to fit a particular child's specific needs. Watching the amazing growth that children make because of this is phenomenal. In addition, I believe that all children can become lifelong learners. Children are inherently curious and have a natural d... Read more
Robert
Experienced language professional and writer
When I started high school, I studied hard because my parents expected it. But then I had a French teacher who showed me that there were other and better reasons for studying. Her name was Frances Lutz. She found it exciting to introduce her students to the wonderful world of French language and culture. She inspired me to study---not only to please my parents or to get a good grade---but to experience the thrill of entering a foreign culture through its language and looking at life throu...

I have taught High School Math for the last 13 years. I love helping students to feel like math makes sense. I love seeing or hearing the "ah-ha" moment, when a student finally understands a concept, and it is like all the world makes sense. And their sense of accomplishment sky rockets! Math is all around us, in everything we do. The more we understand the math, the more we can understand the world. And understanding the world around us will help us to have well-educated citizens for the ... Read more

I have tutored college students in Math (chemistry and Physics as well) since February 2012 at a community college, as one of the hired professional tutors. I also took Calculus 1 and 2 during my college prerequisite years. I had several home and library appointments where I met with college and high school students for one-on-one tutoring. The usual compliments I receive have been that I break the Math down and make it look so easy. I guess I'm really good at that. I know how to get it thro... Read more
