Carrie
Carrie
My named is Carrie. I currently work at a special needs school. I enjoy working with students to make learning fun for them. I like to have fun while teaching, especially math since it can be boring. I'm currently getting my master's in special education as well as math. Math has always been my favorite subject. Algebra would by far be my favorite out of all the math classes. I have tutored before and brought a girl who was failing up to an A with lots of practice.... Read more
Kathleen
Retired Spanish/French Teacher
I am recently retired after 33 years of teaching Spanish-beginning and intermediate levels. I would like to keep current in my languages by helping those students who are struggling. I enjoy working with high school level students since I taught grades 9-12. I am enthusiastic and a good listener. I try to find the best way to teach each student. I am schooled in the meta cognitive method of language instruction; I build on a secure foundation of knowledge and progress from there. I also li... Read more

Richard
Biology and Math - Middle School * High School * College
I have found most students need to hear material twice. Rarely do they fully understand nor appreciate the first time a lesson is presented to them. They still need to have the information presented at least one more time and maybe more. The sciences require a new way of thinking for the traditional student to fully appreciate it. This is where I can be beneficial. My usual approach to tutoring is to first get the students to enjoy themselves and feel comfortable with learning. Once this is... Read more

John
excellent tutor
Hi. My schooling and work experiences give me a unique combination of skills needed to help you through your Cobol instruction. I received a BA degree in Management Information Systems 30 years ago. The main computer language I studied was Cobol due to my interest in business data applications. During my schooling I was a Deans' List recipient for 5 consecutive semesters. I graduated in the top 10 percent of my graduating class. During this time I did tutor students in Cobol and other fie... Read more
Byron
They call me Mr. R.
My areas of focus are History, English and Research. In addition I am trying to finish my PhD in Parent and Community Involvement and how it affects student achievement. I help students to think about the big picture of why they are studying, not just the practical side of how and what to study. I have four basic rules for students; (1) Students need to be respectful, (2) I will respect students, (3) We always learn something new and have fun and (4) We always try to do good in the world. ...
