Ann Marie
6th Grade AP Language Composition Tutor • +27 Subjects
My decision to pursue a teaching career is because I have a strong desire to make a difference in the lives of my students. I see teaching as the best way to do this. I also have a strong love for learning and as an educator, having this quality is essential if one is to instill a love for learning in his/her students. I am helping students reach their fullest potential. I am laying the foundation for lifelong learning and achievement and to me that is the greatest job of all.I have taught a wide variety of students in both early childhood and elementary grades in both public and private settings. I have also helped colleagues prepare for different standardized exams such as the GRE, PRAXIS and the New York State teacher examination. My experiences have taught me a lot about what are best practices and how best to implement these best practices. They have taught me the value of being patient and the importance of differentiated instruction.I have my Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from Pace University. I also have a Masters in Science in Childhood Education (1-6). In addition, I have a 15-Credit Post Masters in Early Childhood Education (Birth-2nd Grade). I am able to tutor reading (comprehension, phonics); writing (style, grammar); math (number operations, measurement, geometry, problem solving, and number sense); science (biology, health, physiology, astronomy; weather, earth science); and social studies (civic engagement, geography and history).My favorite subjects to tutor are reading, writing and math. As an educator I take the time to get to know my students and what really interests them. I believe this is essential to learning how to best teach the students I am teaching or tutoring. It is important to help make the content relatable and accessible. This means getting to know my students and their learning styles.Outside of academia I enjoy doing yoga, reading, traveling and spending time with family and friends.
Adam
Conversational Spanish Tutor • +5 Subjects
Hi, I'm Adam. I'm 29 years old, and have recently moved back to the US from several years of living in Australia. I've had lots of experience doing many things over the years. I've always had a passion for digging into different skills and learning whatever I can get my hands on. I've also always had a knack for taking whatever I've learned and conveying it to new learners easily. I love the experience and process that comes with learning new things, and love to facilitate the excitement of learning & growth in others however I can.Some more personal details and credentials:have a major in Community Health with a focus on Health Education from Texas A&M University, as well as a Minor in Spanish Language. I have lived abroad in Seville, Spain, Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic, and have spent quite a bit of time in Mexico and Costa Rica throughout my life. I currently live in Texas, and am able to practice my Spanish regularly.I have over ten years of guiding youth groups during the summers in team building activities, ropes courses, and other challenging activities. I've worked with groups from ages 4 to 16 years old of all genders and backgrounds, and have experience with special needs and varied learning abilities as well. My last outdoor youth guiding position focused on middle school to high school aged expeditions, team building, rappel/abseil guiding, and overnight survival skills expeditions.I have a long background in emergency and wilderness medicine, and pursuing emergency services and search and rescue focuses is my main goal. I have completed the nationally registered EMT and Wilderness EMT courses, and wish to pursue either a Paramedics or Nursing degree next.I have travelled extensively throughout my life, especially during my twenties, and get extreme enjoyment in absorbing whatever I can about the cultures and languages belonging to wherever I find myself.During my three years in Australia I found myself around a lot of Brazilian friends, so I picked up a decent amount of Portuguese, and am currently starting to teach myself Arabic as well.I adore the outdoors and time spent adventuring in nature. Hiking, bushwhacking, swimming, surfing, climbing, SCUBA diving, wakeboarding, snow skiing, rappelling, ropes courses, cliff jumping, and the list goes on. If it involves being outside and something extreme, challenges me, and gets my heart rate going, I'm there.I have also been around martial arts for most of my life. I have a first degree black belt in Tae Kwon Do and a year or so of practice in Krav Maga regarding self defense & urban combatives. I started practicing Muay Thai ago it a year ago, have had one amateur fight, and am currently practicing Muay Thai and jiu jitsu.I have a long standing background in sports shooting and self defense tactics with firearms. I worked in private law enforcement for over a year, and have given private lessons to family and friends in self defense & basic firearms safety training.My longest and most persistent passion has a always been music. I began playing drums at the age of 9, and have been playing ever since. I took music lessons from then on throughout high school. During my years at school I captained my 5A high school drum line, played with strings and full wind orchestras, percussion ensembles, musicals, and solo performances at the Texas state level. Beyond that, I continued to play and teach myself, write and play live performances with various musicians, and have since been in a band for a few years with heavy doses of large live performances, studio recording time, and several tracks on Spotify.As you can see, I've gotten my hands on quite a few things over the years. I am absolutely an open book, so if you have any interests in any of these areas or any questions on my background, teaching styles, or anything at all, so not hesitate to reach out to me!My personal cell phone number is: (817)-964-9402

I have taught thousands of soldiers in a variety of subjects and I would love to assist anyone here to learn more about any topic that interests them, or they just need to learn to pass ; ).

I am a graduate of Marquette University holding my bachelor of science degree in Biomedical Engineering and master of arts in philosophy. I have 9 years of experience tutoring and teaching students ages ranging from ages 6-20. My main area of expertise is computer science based subjects, but I have worked with students on every subject.When it comes to tutoring, I believe that each student learns best according to their own needs. Therefore, I work with the student to determine what works well and what doesn't beginning with what the student already knows and building from there.
Kelsey
Algebra Tutor • +28 Subjects
I am a current undergraduate student pursuing my Bachelor of Science degree in Biochemistry and Nutrition. Additionally, I have completed Biology and Chemistry at both the Ordinary and Advanced Level as well as Spanish at the Ordinary level and so I mainly tutor Biology, Spanish and Chemistry. During my high school years, I often tutored and assisted my peers and younger sibling with whatever subjects they needed help with. Since I am fairly young, I believe that my tutoring style is more relatable to students younger or the same age as me. Personally, I love Biology and every time I learn something, I become more and more fascinated with how amazing nature is designed. I spend my downtime reading, playing the steelpan and cuddling with my dog.

Frequently Asked Questions
Honors English typically requires deeper literary analysis, more complex essays, and faster-paced instruction than standard English courses. Students read more challenging texts, engage in sophisticated discussions about themes and symbolism, and are expected to develop stronger critical thinking skills. Honors English also often involves more rigorous writing assignments with higher standards for organization, thesis development, and argumentation.
Personalized tutoring in Honors English focuses on the entire writing process—from thesis development and outlining to revision and final editing. Tutors provide detailed feedback on your argument structure, help you strengthen your evidence and analysis, and guide you through refining your writing voice and style. Rather than just correcting grammar, tutors work with you to understand why certain choices strengthen your writing and how to apply those strategies to future assignments.
Literary analysis requires connecting textual evidence to larger themes and meanings—a skill that benefits significantly from one-on-one guidance. Tutors help you develop a systematic approach to reading, teach you how to identify symbolism and character development, and show you how to construct arguments that go beyond plot summary. With personalized instruction, you can work through challenging texts at your own pace and build confidence in your interpretations.
An effective Honors English tutor should have strong expertise in literature, composition, and critical analysis. They should be skilled at identifying where you're struggling—whether it's thesis clarity, evidence selection, or argument organization—and helping you develop lasting strategies to improve. The best tutors also understand the specific demands of your course, are comfortable giving detailed feedback on written work, and can help you develop your unique writing voice rather than imposing rigid formulas.
Writer's block often stems from unclear thinking about your main idea or fear of starting imperfectly. Tutors help by breaking the writing process into manageable steps—discussing your ideas first, helping you develop a strong thesis, creating an outline, and then tackling the first draft without pressure. This scaffolded approach reduces anxiety and gives you a clear roadmap, making it easier to get words on the page. Once you have a draft, tutors guide you through revision, which is often easier than starting from nothing.
Yes—many Honors English students find citations confusing because the rules feel arbitrary. Tutors explain not just the mechanical rules of MLA or APA formatting, but the reasoning behind citation (giving credit, allowing readers to find sources). Once you understand the purpose, the specific formatting becomes easier to remember and apply. Tutors can also help you integrate quotations smoothly into your writing so citations feel natural rather than awkward.
With consistent personalized tutoring, students typically see improvements in essay organization, thesis clarity, and analytical depth within a few weeks. Over time, you'll develop stronger critical reading skills, more confident writing voice, and the ability to tackle challenging texts independently. Many students see grade improvements, but the deeper benefit is gaining the skills to approach any English assignment strategically rather than struggling through trial and error.
