...as a second language to adults, and one-on-one tutoring in Math and Language Arts. I tutor Math up through Algebra II, middle and high school English & grammar, and the core subjects of middle school. My intent, when tutoring, is to responsively connect with students, so that they can engage in understanding their subject and acquire learning tools to attack new material confidently. My favorite subjects to tutor are English, Math, and Social Studies. Studying...

...enjoyed math. I enjoy being able to help others understand it. And I feel gratified when I can relieve the stress a student is feeling about not getting the math they have to do for a class or test. Outside of math, I have a degree in psychology and am very interested in the topic. In my spare time, I also like hiking, mountain climbing, table tennis, running, reading, Ethiopian and Thai restaurants, and chess.

...along with my fiancee and our dog Max. I'm in the process of transitioning into a career in software development, and am currently attending a coding bootcamp downtown. When I'm not wrestling with Ruby and JavaScript, you can find me exploring Portland parks or hanging out reading and playing video games. I think I'm a great tutor because I genuinely love learning, no matter the subject, and I think that kind of passion for learning...

...Bachelor of Arts in Political Science and a minor in Web Technologies and Applications. I currently work as a software developer in McMinnville, Oregon. I am tutoring the LSAT, and my strongest section is Logic Games. Through my own preparation for taking the LSAT, I have learned a lot about strategy and analyzing the different question types to improve one's score. I am excited to pass on this knowledge to the students I tutor.

...parents, supervised activities, and aided the instructors. Last semester, I also tutored an introductory biology course for non-majors at Kenyon College. I sat in on lectures and provided weekly and occasionally bi-weekly assistance outside of class at the college's Math and Science Skills Center. This job required a great deal of creative thinking, as I often had to explain a concept from different perspectives for the students and push them to discover answers for themselves.

...tests. After a summer teaching English in China and a whole school year as an active teaching assistant (personalized tutoring and lab instruction), I hope to continue my involvement with tutoring at 大象传媒! I've had extensive experience with Speech and Debate throughout high school, which not only helped me with my communication skills but also taught me how to be an organized and analytical student. Despite having a fierce passion for debating, I am...

...junior or senior preparing for college. No matter where you're at as a reader and writer, you will come away from my tutoring sessions with an appreciation for close reading and confidence about the writing process. I break down even the trickiest concepts clearly and methodically with targeted practice in the areas where you need it most. Most importantly, I'll make our classes fun. Outside of tutoring, I'm writing a novel and raising an Australian...

...and of writing overall. I tutored for two programs while at Princeton; one was the Petey Greene Prisoner Assistance Program, which provided one-on-one tutoring with inmates in the correctional education system. I also tutored for Let's Get Ready, which was a free SAT prep program. From these experiences I gained a broad knowledge of how best to tutor people of different ages and backgrounds. I recently took the GRE test and I performed well on...

...SAT, English, Computer Science, IB diploma classes, and more. I particularly like editing essays. Currently, I'm working towards a Bachelor's degree in Finance at Portland Community College. I have been a formal and informal tutor over the last eight years. My philosophy is that there are always a couple of simple, crucial keys to success in any subject, and I'm looking to pass what I've learned over the years to students. I'm into politics (I'm...

...Club. Additionally, I have also worked on my own as a private mathematics tutor and tennis coach. While I have tutored a wide range of subjects, I am most passionate about high school mathematics as well as the S.A.T./A.C.T., because I believe a strong foundation in both of these areas is critical for succeeding in college. With tutoring, I find it most helpful to understand how the student thinks in order identify why he or...

...outside and active, cooking and eating good food, playing guitar, climbing rock and ice, and being alive. I am extremely passionate about learning, and love to get people excited about it as well. I like to say that I teach "maieutically;" which comes from the Greek and means "to midwife, or aid in giving birth," in this sense, to an idea. I prefer to ask the student lots of guiding questions, instead of didactically infusing...

As an ME student at MIT, I've learned a lot about math and science, and I'd love to share that knowledge with students here. I've taught over thirty students in standardized test preparation, English, German, and various kinds of math and science. It's very important to find teaching methods that meet students' individual needs,so the first meeting will usually be largely about finding the perfect learning strategy for a student.

...easier. Do you need real world applications for it to make sense? Me too. Can finishing homework be a struggle because you lose focus or get bored? I love math, I'll share that with you and you may even have fun! I have been tutoring since I was a student at community college, now I have a Master Degree in Statistics. I am looking forward to sharing my math knowledge with you and helping you...

I am passionate about sharing my love of languages with students of all ages in a patient, encouraging and engaging tutoring approach. I grew up in a bilingual home and studied languages (grammar and literature), linguistics and psychology and completed a post-grad in higher education. I believe that being a good tutor also means being a good listener!

...from Oregon State University and my Masters of Education from Concordia University. It was during my time at Concordia as a graduate student that I discovered my love for tutoring! I currently tutor in the subjects of reading, writing, and English ACT test taking. My favorite subject to tutor is APA writing assistance; writing in the APA format can be challenging! I enjoy the challenge and especially helping students to improve their writing skills in...

I have a Bachelor of Arts in Spanish and a Masters of Education in Curriculum and Instruction with a focus on Bilingual Education. I have endorsements for Spanish, TESOL/ESL/Bilingual Education, and Literacy/Reading Specialist on my teaching licenses. I have taught Spanish, Humanities, Adult Basic Education, GED, Reading, Grammar, and ELL/ESL. I have taught children and adults and really enjoy watching a person's confidence grow along with their knowledge.

I have been dedicated to the education of students since 2003. I have taught a variety of subjects with history being the primary in almost every school. My passion for the subject makes teaching it a byproduct of my affinity and just makes it that much richer.

...with a Bachelor's in Elementary Education and a minor in Teaching English as a Secondary Language. I'm a licensed elementary school teacher certified in grades K-6. I taught 4th and 3rd grade, but have spent time in many other grades. My goal is to create a safe and positive learning environment where students not only grow but thrive. There is no better feeling than knowing you've had a small part in shaping a child's future.

...weaknesses. In my opinion intellectual growth occurs when the student is challenged, not just when the student is learning something new. I prefer students in high school and college, as those are the ages I have the most experience with, but if you would like me to tutor your child I would be more than happy to help them grow. I believe that I offer a unique and effective tutoring experience, with very flexible hours...
