The Right Personal Connection Can Lead to the Right Brain Connections
Allow me to quickly describe my own educational history. I attended Santa Clara University directly out of high school because Dad, my adoptive father, thought I'd make a good engineer like himself; this was mostly because I had a superior aptitude for math and was pretty good at drawing and computer programming, at least for that time. I attended school there for a year and a term before I began experiencing health problems--since resolved--and tried to switch to performing arts, and my pa... Read more
Irwin
High school Math and Science Tutor
I'm a retired Engineer who has transitioned to a new career as a tutor. My specialties area math, chemistry and physics 6-12th grade. I enjoy the challenge of helping students figure out the material and problems themselves by asking the right question at the right time. I tailor my style to the specific students learning style. I guide them through the material rather than doing it for them. I've been a homework helper volunteer at the Beaverton Library for the past year and have co... Read more
Richard
German/ English tutor
I am a former Middle School/High School freshman level German language teacher. I learned German as a native English speaker, so I know it's not easy to learn another language, but it can be done. I had to travel to Germany to get proficient, and I recommend that to anyone who wishes to get very good at learning German, however I also recommend having a good knowledge base before embarking on such an adventure, as you will get so much more from the experience. I like to use active learning te... Read more
