Samuel

Math and Science Problem Solving For All Experience Levels

Throughout my education, I’ve tried a lot of study strategies. I’ve found that what works best for me is not reading or lectures, but conversation. That knowledge is what informs my tutoring approach. I talk to my students until I can focus down to the core of their understanding, then I build out until they have a confident grasp on the material. I began tutoring as an undergraduate at the University of Rochester, where I worked as a Teaching Assistant for some introductory geology courses. ... Read more

Beth

Experienced, Patient and Loving Teacher/Tutor

As an experienced teacher of 22 years, I have worked extensively with children with ADD/ADHD. In general, I find these children to be quite intelligent and able to learn as long as the learning environment is suitable. In the classroom they should sit near the front of the instructional area and should be gently guided to maintain attention. I also Read more

Chris

Actuary with Consulting Skills

I am the son of a teacher, and have tutored friends and peers while in high school, college and also after college. Both having a teacher for a mother and also working with friends has reinforced the following reality: teachers are people too. These experiences taught me that the teacher is a friend or a partner in the challenge of attaining new knowledge. Accordingly, I want students to conquer unknown material by acquiring knowledge facilitated by my energetic, fun, patient, persistent, ... Read more
