Jonathan
Passion for Math and Writing
Hello! I love working with elementary and middle school kids to boost their math and writing skills and to spark their joy of learning. I recently completed an M.Ed. in curriculum and instruction, and I worked for two years as an assistant elementary school teacher. I use research-based methods of teaching to help students discover and build knowledge, and my goal is always to help students gain mastery in their learning by nurturing their excitement and self-confidence.

Fairy godmother helps prepare children to begin Kindergarten
As an Infant Nurse, Preschool Teacher, parent and Nanny, I have always loved working with children and respect the uniqueness of each one. Learning should be non-threatening and fun. Because no two children are alike I try to find the best methods for yours. Most children this age love lots of hands-on activities including games and colorful graphics along with verbal explanations and discussions. Whatever skills we are working on my job is to find the key to your individual child. Tea... Read more
Cynthia

For the past five years I have been teaching English, including AP Composition, AP Litera... Read more

Experienced and energetic tutor with a wide range of interests.
I was lucky enough to be inspired at a young age by some amazing teachers. Because of them, I am a lifetime learner, I love learning new things. That is one of the reasons why I love teaching and tutoring so much. It does not matter how often I have taught something, I feel like I learn something new every time. Sometimes it is just a matter of the students I am working with helping me see something in a completely different light. I always strive to motivate my students to want to learn like... Read more

My love for teaching started when I saw I was capable "to disect"
My love for teaching comes when I was so young (15 years old). For the leaving hard conditions, as soon as I finished my middle school, I had the opportunity to be a teacher in a rural area in my country, Mexico. After a fast track Summer preparation, I was approved to take full care of the rural elementary school, with only first, second and third grade of elementary education. At this time I knew the purpose of my life: TEACH. After years of study I got my Bachelor degree in Chemical Engi... Read more
Kady
Secondary Ed. Speech/Performance Arts and History Tutor
I have had the blessing and privilege of teaching junior high and senior high students for the past 9 years in a fabulous Christian School, summer camps, and drama camps – I’ve even traveled overseas with students to 10 countries! In my mind, learning pries the gift of life wide open by opening the mind to understanding, increasing wisdom, and cultivating a sense of gratitude for each new facet of life one achieves. The greatest joy of a teacher/tutor is that 'one on one' opportunity to ... Read more
