I am a certified and highly qualified secondary English teacher in the metro Detroit area. I am looking to help middle and high school students with any area of English they need - grammar, vocabulary, writing, reading, analysis, etc. - in addition to helping them stay organized with school work. I have taught and tutored many ages in many places - all the way from elementary students in rural China to college students in a university writing center.I can also help with ACT/SAT test prep and college admissions essays, and I am happy to work with students of all academic and English levels. I look forward to working with you!

I have taught as a math instructor and tutor for the last few years. I began tutoring mathematics as an undergrad in the math learning center at Michigan Tech, where I earned my BS in Applied Math. I then started teaching as a graduate assistant at Oakland University, where I earned my MS in the Spring of 2014. My goal is to help any individual, no matter the age, succeed in mathematics. Outside of academia, I enjoy various summer and winter sports, such as snowboarding, running, and volleyball.

I'm a fourth year medical student in Michigan and an avid learner. I have years of tutoring and mentoring experience from high school and undergrad. My expertise lies in the sciences, as well as standardized exams such as ACT and MCAT. I can also help students with essay writing, whether for English classes or for college/graduate school applications. Often students get perplexed by complex ideas that can often be broken down into much simpler parts. I am here to help with that. Everyone has different ways of learning and through my experience, I've learned how to work with that for the benefit of the student.

I am a graduate of The University of Michigan-Ann Arbor and Oakland University. I received my Bachelor of Arts in Political Science with a focus on American Politics from the University of Michigan-Ann Arbor and my Masters of Public Administration from Oakland University. Since graduation, I have worked as a healthcare consultant for a number of leading firms, which has afforded me some real world examples that I can use with students. During my graduate studies, I worked as a long term substitute teacher. This is where I developed my passion for teaching and educating. I also have experience tutoring private clients in the Metro Detroit area. While I tutor a broad range of subjects, I am most passionate about Math, Writing, and Social Studies. In my experience helping struggling students, students need a tutor who is very patient and willing to move at the student's pace. I am a firm believer in the power of education. I think education is critical in helping people maximize their potential. In my spare time, I enjoy playing sports, reading, coaching, and blogging.

Hi. I am an experienced social studies teacher who loves helping students reach their goals. I also try and make the subject as relevant to your life as possible. I can teach in a variety of ways so I can customize the experience to meet your needs. I hope to hear from you!

I am a current doctoral student, studying Educational Leadership. Additionally, I am a Dean at a middle/high school. I hold a Master's in Special Education and a Bachelor's in Journalism. I believe that all students can learn, but the teaching strategies should vary. I enjoy teaching and tutoring because it is a chance to open academic doors and turn on the light for students.My areas of tutoring includes English (Reading/Writing) - elementary, middle, high school, college and other adult learners; social studies, college essays and PSAT, SAT and ACT prep.Additionally, I have taught College English and Writing for more than five years.My background includes extensive writing experience, as I have also worked as a journalist and public relations professional.Outside of academia, I really enjoy cooking, baking and football.

I am very fortunate to be able to tutor students. There is no better feeling than to see the "light bulb" go on during a session. After building rapport, especially with reluctant learners, I always stay positive and compliment my students on even the smallest gain in understanding. Certainly, a little light-hearted humor goes a long way! In addition, I spend a lot of time preparing customized lessons, and being sure I present material in a variety of ways, so that a student's learning style is supported. Also, I remain flexible with booking sessions, and keep communication with parents/guardians open, honest, and frequent. I also teach study skills and techniques to students to help them become lifelong learners. Ultimately, my goal is to help students feel more confident, raise self-esteem, and become more successful.

I have spent the last 15 years working with students so that they can feel successful. I will work hard to find a way to help you understand the concepts! I have two engineering degrees from the University of Michigan, one in Chemical Engineering and one in Material Science Engineering. I also have an MBA from the University of Michigan Ross School of Business. Finally, I have a Master of Arts in Teaching from Oakland University. I am certified to teach Chemistry, Math, and Physics, and I have an Integrated Science Endorsement.

Motivated Teacher dedicated to children's educational needs and development. Well-versed in presenting comprehensive lesson plans and assessing and recording student progress. Focused and diligent professional with in-depth knowledge of teaching best practices and strong moral values.

Every student learns in their own unique way. My passion is to discover that learning style and to customize my teaching style in order to fit that unique student. A student who struggles with a certain subject does not necessarily mean lack of ability; it may simply mean that the student is being taught in a manner that is incompatible with his/her learning style. The key is to deliver the material and concepts in a way that is compatible with the student. Next it is encourage and affirm the student as he/she begins to understand what was once unclear."The creation of a thousand forests is in one acorn" Ralph Waldo Emerson

I'm a college student from Michigan currently building my own business. I spend a lot of time on my computer toying with programs, playing video games, and learning about chess. I currently attend Oakland University, and I also take some classes at Macomb Community College. I currently tutor algebra, business, marketing, writing, and cost accounting. I believe all students have the skills in front of them to learn, but sometimes just need help understanding. I am always around to help anyone that believes they could use my help. I am always willing to listen to your needs, and do whatever I can!

Learning should feel joyful, and I love turning tough skills in reading, math, and writing into fun, confidence-boosting wins. With years of teaching and tutoring experience, I break concepts down in simple, friendly ways and tailor lessons to what each student loves. Those "I get it!" smiles are my favorite part of every session.

I am an experienced Mechanical Engineer currently trying to make my way into the product design arena. I recently moved to Oregon from Michigan in pursuit of this goal! I have always loved and had a skill for math and physics. This was only strengthened through two degrees in engineering.Although my formal tutoring didn't start until college, in high school I did some volunteer tutoring and was often helping my friends with their physics and calculus homework. When I did tutor, I tutored mainly in all levels of math.

As a passionate tutor with a Bachelor's in Industrial Engineering from Oakland University, I specialize in math and science subjects, including Algebra, Geometry, and AP Biology. With over 2 years of tutoring experience and a background as a teaching assistant in college, I thrive on creating tailored lesson plans that meet each student's unique learning style. My approach emphasizes hands-on problem-solving, as I believe that students learn best when actively engaged in the material. I find joy in helping students grasp challenging concepts and discover the answers to their questions. Outside of academics, I enjoy coaching gymnastics, which has enhanced my ability to connect with students of all ages. My goal is to foster a supportive and motivating environment where every student can succeed. I love reading in my spare time!

I am an elementary teacher. I received my Masters in Elementary Education, grades K-8 and a Bachelor's in Linguistics with a certification in ESL. This is my 4th year as a teacher. I have been a substitute teacher, tutored all ages in reading and math. I believe that every student can learn and I am looking forward to helping you achieve your academic goals. Outside of teaching.

I'm a current senior undergraduate student majoring in Biomedical Sciences who recently took the MCAT. I scored a 520 (131/126/131/132) when I took the exam this summer, self-studying for only 3 months and starting from a 502 diagnostic score. I was able to balance a job, volunteering, STEM tutoring, and my MCAT studying over this period.I specialize in tutoring all of C/P and B/B (primarily biochemistry). I have an extensive history tutoring high school students in various STEM courses, transitioning into being a supplemental instruction leader for my Physiology and Organic Chemistry 1 and 2 courses for university students. Working with me as your tutor, I guarantee that you will be able to overcome any weaknesses that you may have in the sciences. I adopt a personalized approach for all of my students, individualizing my resources, instruction, and tips for everyone that I tutor. I also have countless tips for time management, resources, and scheduling that I can offer which will assist any student's study plan.

I believe good teaching begins with curiosity, patience, and the belief that no one should feel incapable simply because something hasn't clicked yet. I enjoy finding the explanation, example, or approach that makes a difficult idea finally make sense. Whether I'm helping someone prepare for an interview, strengthen their writing, speak with confidence, or learn a new technology, my goal is to help them understand, not just memorize, and leave knowing they can do it themselves.

I am a graduate of Purdue University. I earned a Bachelor of Science with majors in physics, mathematics, and statistics. I am currently attending Oakland University where I earning a Master of Science in physics. I teach an introductory physics lab and perform research in the field of cosmic inflation. I tutor a wide range of physics and math topics. I believe that students learn the material best when they understand why it's true and can relate it to situations that they are familiar with. I try to connect the material to real world situations whenever possible.

Knowledge is power. This is very true. And the more knowledge one has, the more power they obtain. My goal, as a tutor, is to take this knowledge I have and transfer it to someone else. Thus, creating a very powerful environment.

I believe that everyone has a story. We can enjoy them all if we're willing to listen and just "be" in the moment. There are many times when I shake my head and think to myself "only me". I find shenanigans in the most unlikely places, I'm always being told not to make friends in the grocery, and I am a huge nerd (self proclaimed). I am married, and I have five children. All of my children have four feet and tails (betcha I got you for a second). I have two dogs and three cats.I am interested in all things crafty, and I spend more time on Pinterest than I'd care to admit. I love making things, and I take great joy in spending hours in the craft studio that is set up in my basement. I also love shoes. I have a Carrie Bradshaw sized obsession, and although I couldn't draw you a house with all the tools in the world, I can sketch outlines of shoes and have several in a book. In my next life, I want to design them. I also love being outside, and when the weather is nice, you can find me on the deck, in my hammock with a book, my notebook, and sun tea. I also obnoxiously take pictures of everything.I started writing when I was in middle school, and I have not stopped since. I used to write stories about my friends and I would often type them (on a TYPEWRITER!) and give them as gifts. My family didn't own a computer until I was in high school. I continue to write flash fiction and poetry as well as creative non-fiction. I have been to several writers' retreats and I was a summer fellow last year in the Meadowbrook Writing Project.I detest the poetry of T.S. Eliot, but I owe him for the day I decided to go to graduate school. I felt changed after leaving a modern poetry class one day, and I credit that class with helping to turn the tide for me.My favorite writers include James Joyce (although I have not finished Ulysses), Sylvia Plath, and I adore Frank McCourt. I also enjoy some more modern fiction, and some of my favorites are Cecelia Ahern and Marissa de los Santos.I teach writing, and there is not another job in this world that I ever want to do. I am a writer, and that's what makes me whole.

I'm back to tutoring and editing after spending a few years in sales and management. Before I took time off to be at home with my son, I taught at Oakland Community College as an adjunct English instructor, and wrote and edited for Gale Cengage, an educational publisher.I started tutoring at Oakland University in the Rhetoric Department the year I graduated.

I earned my B.S. in Elementary Education with a Language Arts endorsement from Oakland University in Rochester, MI. Shortly after graduation I moved to Arizona to teach fourth grade. I taught an inclusive fourth grade classroom for four school years. In the classroom I was responsible for teaching all subjects (Reading, Writing, Math, Science, Health, and Social Studies). I was also responsible to help my students be prepared to take and pass the 4th grade AIMS standardized test. In addition to teaching I stayed after school to tutor students that were struggling in math and/or reading two times a week.During my third year of teaching I went back to school to earn my Master's degree. I have since graduated from Arizona State University with a Masters of Education with a focus on Applied Behavior Analysis. Once I earned my Master's degree, I resigned from teaching in public school and now work with children with autism 1:1 in their home and community (including school).Even though I have experience in all subject areas, I am most passionate about math, reading and writing up to the 6h grade level.Though I do not work specifically for schools anymore, I am still passionate about education. I believe everyone is capable of being successful given an encouraging and supportive environment. Furthermore I believe there is no right way to learn and I have many different concepts and techniques to teach each subject and help my clients be happy, successful, and confident about learning. In my spare time I enjoy hiking, reading, and visiting new places.

I enjoy being able to share my knowledge. I like to try to teach not only how to do something, but also why it works and the reasoning behind it, especially when it comes to math.

I have degrees in Elementary Education, English as a Second Language Arts, and Reading from Michigan State University and Oakland University. I have been a teacher for ten years, teaching kindergarten, third grade, fourth grade, and fifth grade. I also worked as a reading specialist for fourth-sixth graders. I love working with students to help them achieve their academic potential! I bring a fun, approachable viewpoint to learning. My favorite subject to teach is literacy, because I love working with students to get excited about unlocking the world through reading and writing. I am very passionate and enthusiastic.
