We see education as a meeting of minds, where every participant is on the same level. While a tutor may well have more knowledge of a subject than the student, learning is a communicative and collaborative process; the transmission of ideas can only happen when we acknowledge we each have something to learn from one another. Part of what makes Logic Studies so successful and distinctive is that we refuse to fall into the prescribed teacher-student dynamic. Never condescending and demonstrating mutual respect, the tutors at Logic Studies treat their students as peers, or coequals .

The Tutor that is Your Perfect Fit!

I have taught and tutored at all levels ranging from Elementary through College in both "Mainstream" and "Special Education" environments. In addition, I have a great deal of experience teaching and tutoring ESL and Law Students at the college and post-graduate levels. In conjunction with the instructional piece, I have designed, authored and implemented curricula in all of the above areas.
I am extremely individualized in my approach; by creating a Plan for each student based on a careful and non-threatening assessment of his/her needs, strengths and challenges. I feel very strongly about authentic and credible teacher reinforcement for every increment of effort and progress made toward each objective and goal within each respective student's Plan. I am also ardent about incorporating a method of Self Reinforcement for the student so that he/she can feel proud and successful a ... read more

Let's start working together to reach your goals of success!

My teaching style is fun: relaxed and engaging for my students and for me too. I am serious about giving my clients the best and richest learning situation as possible. I use a modality designed just for that student and perhaps not offered at school. Since I am in a one on one setting I can ideally focus on just that one student's personal needs. I communicate clearly with all stake holders to ensure I am meeting the learner's needs and expectations. I know some of our relationships will be short term to get past an academic challenge and others may be longer to meet your needs. Whatever the length or circumstances I want it to be the best, positively memorable and educationally worthwhile experience for my student.
Throughout my successful career as a teacher and school counselor, I've instructed every level from kindergarten to college level. Likewise I've had the privilege of ... read more

Graduate student looking to help students achieve their goals!

I think teaching styles should differ based on the preferred learning style of the student. The teaching style should play on the strengths and preferences of that particular student. That being said, I foster a student-centered approach to learning. This approach encourages the student play an equal, active role in the learning process, rather than a passive role. A cooperative approach is important so the student can feel like he or she is an active and capable participant in learning the material. I also believe in leading by example and allowing the student to use me as a resource for reviewing their work.
I have tutored children off and on since I was in high school. More recently, my time has been spent volunteering with The Giving Tree, where I tutored inner-city children after school and helped organize activities (museums, zoo, etc.) on the weekends. I am currently in the ... read more

My teaching style is simple. In my classroom, I am the teacher, the gate keeper and the executioner. This is premised by my belief in the contingency theory, tempered in some ways that an open, honest and frank discussion in the class is a vital and productive way to educate.
I am professional, and would love to apply my ideas in innovation regarding the education environment, duration and implementation. My bachelor’s degree in chemical engineering, while accomplished a while back, is a plus in that I’ve learned to apply my analytical skills in the years gone by. I am presently an AVID tutor, and this is another badge of my working skill that I am proud to mention. I had dealt with students which were not emotionally or physically set-up for the classroom that needed to be addressed on a daily basis. I have taught math and algebra in a college setting. I have been in the educatio ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I enjoy teaching and creating interest in the subject that is being taught. I have learned from experiance that the more interested the students become in the subject, the better they learn. I have found that many students have a psychological barrier when it comes to mathematics and the sciences. Once that barrier is brought down, the students interest in the subject starts to perk, and it's all uphill from there. I strive to break the subject down for easy understanding, and at the same time create as much interest for the students as possible.
I have an MS in physics and a BS in mathematics. I have twenty years tutoring students in math and physics, starting while working on my BS. I taught trigonometry as a teaching assistant at portland State University while a graduate student. I also taught at Chemeketa Community College as a supplemental instructor, holding group tutoring s ... read more

Getting my Ph.D. in English has given me the ability to communicate clearly both verbally and in writing. During the last seven years I have been tutoring students at all grade levels, from elementary school through high school, as well as teaching classes in English at several universities. I have tutored children in test-taking skills (including math, vocabulary, and critical reading skills) for the SAT and for private school entrance exams. I have also helped students with their writing at all grade levels, on such common problems as grammar, clarity, and learning how to elaborate on one's ideas.
I have always seen teaching as a matter of reigniting a natural curiosity which all students have, and directing it toward an academic subject. My priority as a tutor is to help students feel confident about their own ability to master the material. For each student this requires a diff ... read more

I have extensive experience as a provider and manager of human services in the field of mental health, and am recognized for my contributions to the field of children's mental health both locally and nationally. I write items for the Association of Social Work Boards licensure exams (LCSW) in order to keep my hand in cutting edge clinical topics and to contribute to my first love: clinical services. I am also licensed as a CPA and as a municipal auditor, and currently I teach CPA review exam preparation classes. Over the years, I have given many presentations on topics as wide-ranging as attention deficit disorder in young children and financial management of federal grants.

More About This Tutor...

While I have six years of classroom teaching experience, I've spent the 20 years since my MA in Counseling as a teacher and trainer for a variety of nonprofits. I have trained volunteers, developed manuals and curricula for children through adults, and offered seminars for as many as 200 people. My five years as a writing instructor for a community college honed my skills in all aspects of writing and drew on my BA in English, as well as my avocation as a writer. My background in counseling makes me well-suited to connect with all kinds of people. I am confident I would make a great tutor.
I love learning and communicate that enthusiasm when I teach. I am patient and kind, and very good at breaking down assignments and problems to manageable tasks.

More About This Tutor...

I am a strong believer in interrelating knowledge in diverse areas and illuminating its applications to real life in the belief that students are more motivated to learn when the relevance of that learning is clear to them. Students must not simply believe that they have acquired knowledge, but that they have gained understanding if the knowledge is to make any real difference in their lives. I believe it is important, especially with children, to respect the intelligence of the student, and to that end I employ a great deal of Socratic method. I seek to broaden the horizons of all my students, and impart a deeper appreciation for the world and the cosmos that we inhabit through every subject.
I hold BAs in History and Modern Languages (German/French), and have done graduate work in Theology and French Translation. This background has given me a broad understanding across the huma ... read more

I love to teach people of all ages, developing great relationships. I am an interactive teacher, in that I believe in hands-on activities directed to that person's style of learning, determined through my experience in psychology and counseling. Thinking of learning as an adventure, I utilize discussion, creativity and a holistic approach with firm parameters believing they will enable the learner to feel empowered by the knowledge they receive. There are no failures in learning, only opportunities to challenge oneself and rise to success.
Teaching has been my focus for the past 25 years, resulting in a bachelors degree in Psychology and a masters degree in Classical Archaeology and Art. I was an Assistant Curator of Ancient Art, teaching the university's Honors courses in Classical Studies and giving numerous lectures. By writing various papers and a master's thesis, I am experien ... read more

I am a patient, creative person, with an ever-present sense of humor. I have a strong work ethic, and consider academic success as both a great necessity and a great gift in a child’s life. My goal is to make learning fun, as well as successful. Once a student feels success, the fun then comes naturally. I try to build confidence and self-esteem in children through academic success, as I believe they are irrefutably linked. My hope is to be the teacher that is remembered, the one who made a positive academic and personal impression. Ultimately, I hope to help your child achieve his or her academic goals, to meet your parental expectations, and to share a love of learning.
As a tutor, I offer a variety of experience and skills, including two bachelor degrees, BA in English and BA in French. My advanced skills are in the language and language arts areas, but I am qualifie ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I am an adherent of the one-size-doesn't-fit-all policy. I always try to identify with each student's strength and weakness for a course and adapt to their pace. I make my teaching interesting by being passionate about it, well prepared for the class and also explaining concepts with humor and clarity while holding their interest and attention span. I do not make assumptions on student's strengths--I try to make sure they know what they are presumed to know. Oftentimes, it was helpful when I gave a crush course on concepts they are required to know. As we study together, we work to build student's confidence through understanding and command of the subject, alleviating their fear and making test taking a wonderful experience.

My love of reading and writing has led me to excel in 2 languages. An English major at Carleton College, I mastered the art of putting thoughts on paper to persuade, compare, or explicate; as well as how to read for meaning. Later at the Sorbonne in Paris, I transferred these talents to French. I have since taught and tutored reading, writing, and speaking in both languages in the U.S. and abroad.
My teaching style is active and enthusiastic. I show students clues and shortcuts in all sorts of subjects so that learning can be fun and even easy. I am tolerant and patient, while at the same time I request diligence and assiduousness. I revel in the success of my students, thanks to their efforts and hard work. I love to see students finally understand something they find challenging.

During the summers of college I was trained in Project Read and organizational skills. I then tutored youth from grade school to high school in math and science from grade school math to algebra and geometry the same for science. I worked with the teachers to determine when assignments were due and worked on planning with the students to plan out how and when to work on projects to complete them on time. Also, from 2000 to 2007 I was a youth advocate which involved teaching career readiness classes, tutoring students for GED and continuing organizational skills.
My teaching philosophy is first to have the knowledge for the subjects. Then, I think you need to understand the youth learning styles and to find out where they are with their knowledge and then begin from there. Certainly some refreshing maybe necessary, but most of the time the youth is behind so the teaching would focus ... read more
