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.

Accomplished reporter/writer, Los Angeles Daily News. Teacher's Aide, Los Angeles Unified School District. Bachelor of Arts, Journalism, CSUN. Over the years I gained a wealth of experience and training to work with professionals in journalism and in education. The two are related, because they are a part of communication, to work with people and to help someone get an education. My teaching style encourages a person to ask questions, to think independently, to challenge themselves, to use language they can understand, and my style is strict, but flexible.

With an emphasis on the Middle East I have privately tutored at least 8 people on various topics from Middle Eastern history and culture to Persian and English. I believe my academic background and communication skills, along with my passion for the Persian language and culture, will make me a great candidate as a tutor. I also try to make the learning experience for my students as fun as possible.

I do interactive tutoring with hands on lessons. I can also teach large groups at one time while focusing on the individual. I have tutored close to 15 young adults on subjects ranging from History to elementary grammar. I often tutor high school and college level students but I can also tutor younger students. I have patience and if I fail my task I will stay at no additional charge to make sure your son or daughter grasps the material. I can also bring along tutors in other subjects at no extra charge. I am very professional, I always show up early and bring along materials to help the student succeed.

As a University of South Florida college of education graduate I have a wealth of experience with teaching both in the classroom and on a one to one basis. I have successfully tutored students in english, reading comprehension, science and social sciences. During my internship I taught all manner of history classes including AP world history and Psychology. In addition I have tutored for 5 years at all age and skill levels. My teaching style is to show students how to make themselves successful. By motivating my students to do their best every time I can help them exceed expectations and thrive under any situation both academically and socially. Many students focus on what they think they cannot do. What I teach them is to highlight their strengths and improve their weaknesses. I do so with the use of clear directions, constant monitoring, and positive praise. I believe every child can l

I truly enjoy teaching and getting to know my students. I believe young adults are each unique learners and acquire and retain knowledge in their own way. It truly makes me happy when a student finally ‘gets it’ and understands a new skill, fact, or concept. Personality wise, I am very patient, laid back, and reliable. I was frequently praised by parents during my student teaching for my engaging lessons and friendly demeanor. I believe all students can reach their true potential if provided with the right learning tools and strategies to help them succeed. I also like to focus on the positives and what a student is naturally more talented at to help them in areas in which they might struggle. I look forward to helping more young students reach their academic goals and to better their educational experience. I have always possessed a strong desire to follow a career in education.

My training in rhetoric, speech, and debate has taught me the importance of speaking clearly and articulately. This means that I pay close attention to language and I try to bring out that quality in my students. Other methods that I use come from my time as a foreign language teacher. Here, repetition and practice of introduced concepts are key. It's not enough to simply pass on ideas and words, the student must engage with the material for it to become real. Even though I might teach to high standards I am a very easy going person! Having graduated with honors from a top university, the greatest asset I offer comes from my real world teaching experience. During my tenure as a substitute I have taught at all levels, from kindergarten to middle-aged adults, in all subject areas. Even as a young person I was involved with teaching others; I first began as a teacher's aid in high schoo

Teaching and helping students grow is my passion. I work well with students of all age groups and believe that everyone has the potential to succeed. I understand that everyone learns in different ways and accommodate myself to my students' learning styles. I try to explain all subjects to their fullest extent in a critical, analytical, hands-on manner and make sure my students have a strong foundation of knowledge they can build on today and in the future. I am very patient, thorough and easy-going. I strive to provide the best education and learning environment possible for all my students. Throughout my life I have been extremely dedicated to the education process, for both myself and others. I received my BA in 2007 with a double major in American Studies and Film. I am currently an advanced degree student studying towards a Master's in Library and Information Science. My chosen prof

I believe in an interactive approach. That is, I want my students actively involved, engaged, and participating. When a student is puzzled, I prefer to provide clues rather than just give him/her the answer. I strive to be patient and respectful at all times, but I will push my pupils in an effort to get them to exert maximum effort. I decided to pursue a teaching credential at an advanced stage in my career because I wanted to do something I really enjoyed. I had been a technical instructor for fifteen years and loved it. I have always been good in math, and a university counselor told me this was a high need area. Hence, I enrolled in a credential program. Because I have passed the requisite Csets in foundation level math, I am qualified to teach algebra and geometry at the middle or high school level. I have also tutored students ranging from third grade to high school graduat

I am very patient with students. I am not quick to tell them how to do a problem or what the answer is because the student will never learn how to do it on their own. I allow the student to work through the problem, offering my assistance along the way. I started tutoring high school students; helping them with anything from test prep to organizational and study skills. I then started tutoring younger children helping them complete their homework, understand their material, and how to study for tests. I have over seven years experience tutoring students and getting results. I love children and helping them succeed in school is my passion.
