...years, predominately working with high school students, and have completed over 300 hours of volunteer tutoring.

My goal as a tutor is to prepare students for academic evaluations while also setting them up to...

Learning these languages has also helped me in English. I have a strong knowledge...

...I place an emphasis on giving each child the tools they need to figure things out for themselves, especially for math and hard sciences such as chemistry. When students learn the correct way to approach problems, they learn not only their subject, but they learn "how to learn". Learning technical subjects need not be cold and rigid - creativity is valuable in any subject! In short, I like to teach in such a way that...

As a lifelong student and newly emerging teacher of many areas of discipline, I not only want to help you find your own unique way of learning, which will allow the subject to become fun and interesting.

...of the students I've been able to work with. Working together to get through a tough concept or problem is made totally worthwhile when the student then says, "Ok, let me do this next one on my own. I've got this." That's when I know knowledge has truly been shared, and that both the student and I have done our jobs. When I'm not tutoring, I love to be outside! You can find me either...

Getting to know students is part of the fun, and the lasting relationships I build with fellow German-learners motivates me to give tutoring my all. Aside from studying and tutoring German, I enjoy playing the drum set and writing nerdy, amateur fiction!... I find getting your student out of their...

I really love teaching, whether that involves writing songs, plays and poems with my younger students to make reading...
