...sessions, or with a small group. Teaching others is a great way to expand understanding of how other students think and develop ideas, and it allows myself to see new ways to look at problems. While I'm not studying (or helping my friends study), I love to play music (piano, flute, guitar), take a walk through the forest preserve, draw, design/sew clothing, chat with friends, etc. I look forward to contributing to students' learning endeavors!

Zane: Japanese course instructor
...college-age students, with students in America and with students in Japan, I have helped new ideas and information take root and blossom to the satisfaction of student and tutor alike. I love those moments of recognition as someone internalizes knowledge, when an unfamiliar idea becomes familiar, and the creative ability such moments foster. My aim as a tutor is to understand how my students learn, so that they can do so most efficiently.... The material should be made real for the students. They should be able to see why it matters to them and how they can utilize it. Rote memorization is not the same as knowledge, and it's good to be a bit pragmatic.

During my undergraduate years I tutored students for three semesters and saw how I could gently encourage making the subject “one’s own” in a friendly, supportive way. I’m patient and flexible when it comes to...

As an educator who spent 10 years teaching English as a foreign language in Japan and Macedonia, it is my goal to teach English as a means to have students think more critically about their own identity, the identities of others, social, cultural, and global issues rather than merely as a subject to read, write, and memorize. My teaching philosophy is centered on encouraging students to use all...

...math, English, reading skills, study skills, and English and reading ACT prep. My specialty in math is in helping students who struggle with the abstract nature of math to understand why the steps are the way they are, and in helping to improve the student's fluency with math vernacular. Because I come from a verbal background, I work especially well with students who excel at verbal subjects, but struggle at math.... My philosophy for teaching largely lies in giving children the tools they need to feel in control of their education. Rather than approaching education as a series of directions to be followed, I work to see that my students understand why they are doing what they are doing, and how one lesson connects with the next to build their overall education. Students who feel in control of their learning are free to pursue their educational interests both inside and outside of school.
