I've always enjoyed one-on-one work with students, since this best allows me to pinpoint and address the student's areas of confusion. Every learner is different and I believe it's important for tutors to identify and adapt to the learning styles of their students. I aim to be flexible and creative; since we live in a physical world, I like to use familiar phenomena as examples to discuss physics and astronomy concepts. I have 13 years of experience teaching in both formal and informal e... Read more

Greetings! There are two simple secrets to writing well - solid organization and clarity. Organization develops clear thoughts; clear wording prevents redundancy and over-writing. But I also believe this process must be guided by an individual's personal learning style. Together we can find your natural study rhythm and develop strong writing skills. I hold a master's degree and candidacy in cultural anthropology from the University of Michigan and have spent 8 years as a freelance writer. D... Read more

Learning a new language can be fun and rewarding

Initially, languages did not come easily to me. My first year of middle-school Spanish, I was boggled by the idea that verbs conjugated and, once I started studying Latin, that nouns declined. It all seemed so...foreign to me. But with the help of a very patient host family while on a ninth-grade exchange program in Mexico, I realized not only how useful speaking and understanding a foreign language could be, but how beautifully that language could express feelings English could not. ...
