A Little Bit About Me...

We are a team of experienced teachers and tutors each specializing in our own subject strengths. We provide excellent customer service, possibly immediate or same day for homework help or project completion. Online tutoring is also available with a shared online whiteboard for step-by-step problem solving. We strive to get to the root of the problem be it a test-taking challenge or a problem with foundational concepts. Not very fond of your teacher? Unfortunately, this is often the case. We follow your own pace of learning to achieve results. We love the moment when a student finally understands a topic and starts building self-confidence. We can then use this to change the way a student thinks about a subject resulting in continual improvement and achievement.

Everyone is a genius when given the right tools

I have been working with students as a private tutor for over seven years, and have become addicted! There are a million ways to explain a problem and a million different points of views to understand it. I have an enormous amount of patience when explaining solutions and comprehending a student’s true understanding. Hands-on learning is my philosophy as I believe that studying should be done through creation. I look forward to sharing my knowledge with those who are in need of my assistance!

Customized German and English for all ages and levels

My teaching style is eclectic. My background as a yoga instructor and massage therapist inform my teaching style in that I teach the student as a whole rather than teaching a subject to a student. I like to use current outside sources whether they be from science or art so that learning stays relevant to today.

My comments on tutoring Writing : I write a weekly column called The World This Week that is followed by leading professors, CEOs and public servants.

I am Socratic and like to make students think. My education is a classical Old World one and I focus on drilling down to assumptions.
I have lectured in universities around the world from Harvard and MIT to University of Delhi and IIT. I studied Philosophy, Politics and Economics at Oxford on the Radhakrishnan British Chevening Scholarship. I qualified as a lawyer in London and worked for a firm that represents the Queen and the Bank of England. In the US, I did an MBA from the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania. Currently, I teach a class on Political Economy at the University of California, Berkeley.

Writing is one of my top subjects!

My teaching style is aimed at making the child feel good and happy with learning. Often children need tutoring in subjects that frustrate them, they miss one aspect and while they're spending time on that in class the teacher blazes past them adding more confusion. I take it upon myself to back track to the initial place where the confusion stemmed from and spend the time working through these rough patches. I gear everything as a game or story to create excitement in a subject that would normally earn groans. I want your child to feel proud of what they do know already, and use that happiness to fuel further learning.
I have always had an interest in tutoring, starting in Elementary school where I would leave during recess in the fourth and fifth grade to spend time in my past Kindergarten teacher's classroom. There I would read to students, reinforce the teachings lead by th ... read more

Specializing in Spelling, Reading and Writing.

Public school teacher for 25+ years. I love my job & students. I believe in explicit direct instruction and I understand the length of time students can work at one sitting before needing a "brain break". I know numerous teaching strategies and how to implement them for the best learning experience for my students. I am looking for students ages5-Adult who struggle with spelling, writing and reading. After 25 years as a public school teacher I am now tutoring students who can't remember spelling words, sight words, high frequency words as well as those who are slow and inaccurate readers and whose penmanship is difficult to read.
