As a masters degree holding physicist I have an extensive background in both physics and mathematics. Additionally, as a published author and the author of many research papers and lab reports I have considerable grammatical skills, and writing experience. My whole educational career tutoring my classmates and siblings has come as second nature to me, but I have had official teaching assistant and course assistant roles in helping edit student essays, and in introductory physics courses. Additionally, I have tutored students in astronomy, chemistry, history of science, and mathematics at levels ranging from basic arithmetic to calculus. I also have considerable experience with standardized testing, drawing and painting. I am a calm, patient, and easy-going person who loves learning and loves helping others to learn.

Finally, in Michigan, I tutored master's level students in their statistics courses, both individually and in study groups.

JoAnna S - Durham, NC 27712 (20 mi) - GRE Tutor - $34.50/hr.
I love tutoring and mentoring. I naturally adapt my style to that of each student. As part of the instruction, I often ask easy questions to help them discover the rules of math for themselves. By doing this, my students quickly find concepts that were difficult for them begin to make sense! I also encourage them to ask about everything in the lesson they don’t fully understand. I am very patient, caring and encouraging. I help my students build confidence, self-esteem and a positive attitude. I have taught, tutored, trained and mentored students of all ages for more than 15 years. My background includes being a math teacher and adjunct professor. I taught at colleges in New Jersey and at Duke University. The students I tutor are often in grades 5-12, in college or preparing to return to school. I also have several years experience applying math to real world situations, includ

CASEY W - Durham, NC 27712 (21.1 mi) - GRE Tutor - $36.50/hr.
I try to be as prepared as possible when I teach. I try to have the clearest lesson plan possible. Once this is in place, I try to be as energetic as possible in order to engage the student with the material in question. Additionally, I believe that a teacher must remain patient with all students. If one is prepared, patient and passionate, then success is much more likely. I also try to always remain flexible and ready to adapt to the needs of the student or students. If possible, I try to get to know the student or students in order to have a better bond with them. I always respect students and expect the same in turn. I began teaching at the University of Florida (where I earned an MA) as a Teaching Assistant for large lecture courses. I did have my own students whom I interacted with in a more personal environment. I taught philosophy there. Before this, I earned my BA in English and

Chuin Hong Willie O - Durham, NC 27705 (25.2 mi) - GRE Tutor - $38.00/hr.
My teaching philosophy is best summed up by the Confucian aphorism "I hear and I forget, I see and I remember. I do and I understand". In engaging students, I attempt to make the subject matter appealing and relevant to their lives, and highlight areas of common misconception. I encourage active participation in the student asking questions when in doubt. To build confidence in problem solving, I will be working problems in a style consistent with the students way of thought. Am most flexible in tailoring my teaching style to the individual's abilities and requirements. I am a graduate student working towards a PhD in Physics at Duke University. My previous experience in teaching has ranged from individual to group tuition at the high school and college level for subjects ranging from Mathematics to Chemistry and Physics. I have won teaching awards for teaching Physics to students at Duk

Fritz M - Durham, NC 27707 (27.5 mi) - GRE Tutor - $41.50/hr.
I believe that any child can learn and that we all have various learning styles. We just have to find the style that is best for optimum learning. Some of us are visual learners and some are auditory learners, and many of us learn with a combination of styles. I believe that by working with students to finding their unique and individual learning style a tutor is the most effective. I have always had an interest in English, writing, and Communications. I have tutored students in both English, reading, and writing. In my undergraduate program I earned a BA in English and spent time working as a writer and Sports Editor for my college newspaper, worked as an intern at a newspaper, and worked in Public Relations as Communications Manager for a nonprofit organization.

Marc M - Greensboro, NC 27405 (28.4 mi) - GRE Tutor - $38.00/hr.
As an educator and a biologist, I am continually striving to excite students’ interests in the unknown. I also work constantly to instill proper study habits in my students, allow them to learn using their eyes, hands, and ears, and approach each topic with the proper amount of guidance, attention, and enthusiasm it deserves. Moreover, I believe that children should be shown how solutions are achieved; students should be given the tools to complete academic tasks, not merely have those tasks done for them. With that being said, I believe my extensive experience from teaching science gives me the ability to provide students with the tools needed to learn and discover their hidden abilities to be as smart as they desire. After graduating with top honors from high school, I began my college career at the University of North Florida, receiving my BS in biology with Baccalaureate Honors in

Ashley T - Carrboro, NC 27510 (28.5 mi) - GRE Tutor - $34.00/hr.
First and foremost, I believe it is important to establish a trusting relationship with those you teach. Throughout my experiences in the field of education, I have found the most fruitful of those relationships to be those in which I was able to work with a student or group of students regularly over an extended period of time to develop a routine and a strong relationship in which great amounts of learning and understanding could be accomplished. Although many people experience obstacles in learning Mathematics, I believe that by presenting multiple ways to approach a problem, every student can find a method that works for them. Every student should be allowed the resources and opportunity to realize that they CAN achieve their goals. I am here to help students who have had difficulty with Math in the past to succeed, and feel confident in both their abilities in Math, and in life. As

Samuel N - Carrboro, NC 27510 (28.9 mi) - GRE Tutor - $42.50/hr.
I have a lot of experience working with all ages of children. As a teacher, I try to maintain a respectful but friendly dialogue with the student. Especially as a tutor, I want to be able to have an open and honest dialogue with the kid about the work. I am happy always to talk about why certain work is included in the curriculum. If a child is struggling, I know that an initial response is to quit. To assert that certain work is worthless or of no meaning in their life. I would devote a lot of energy to challenging that assertion. By grounding the lessons of the day in the larger context of the world, I would lead the individual to a recognition of the intrinsic value of schoolwork. I graduated from UNC Chapel Hill last Spring with a BA in Anthropology and a minor in both Creative Writing and Chinese. I graduated with a 3.99gpa and Highest Honors. I was selected to the Phi Beta Kappa Ho

Virel G - Durham, NC 27713 (29.6 mi) - GRE Tutor - $49.50/hr.
I am a highly skilled math student, with a degree in computer science from Clemson University. I have about 2 years of private tutoring experience in Math where I taught the student from Freshman to Junior year in high school. I really love sharing my ideas with students and help them learn the subject efficiently. I developed some tricks and techniques on my own which have really helped me in solving problems very fast. I will be happy to share some with the student if he/she is willing to learn. The student needs to be hard working because I am not there to give them a magic formula to solve problems. They will be able to learn to apply their analytical abilities and solve problems with proper reasoning. I have rarely used textbooks in Math, the only reason I used books was to find more problems to solve.
