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 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

One of the biggest challenges in language learning is getting meaningful speaking practice. In traditional classroom settings, students often get only a few minutes to speak per class. With personalized 1-on-1 instruction, you get dedicated conversation time with an expert tutor who can engage you in real dialogue, correct your pronunciation in the moment, and adapt the difficulty to your level.

Tutors can guide you through natural conversations on topics that interest you, help you work through the specific phrases and grammar you need, and provide immediate feedback on accent and fluency. This focused speaking practice is one of the most effective ways to build confidence and develop your ability to communicate authentically.

The best approach combines both. Understanding grammar rules provides a foundation for accurate communication, but language learning research shows that people internalize grammar most effectively through meaningful use and practice rather than memorization alone. Expert tutors balance explicit grammar instruction with natural, conversational usage so you understand the "why" behind the rules while also building intuition for how language actually works.

A skilled tutor will help you move beyond just knowing a rule to using it automatically in real conversations. This integrated approach—learning the structure while practicing authentic communication—accelerates both accuracy and fluency development.

Vocabulary retention relies heavily on spaced repetition and active retrieval—reviewing words at increasing intervals and retrieving them from memory rather than just reviewing lists. Expert tutors integrate new vocabulary into your conversations and writing assignments, so you encounter words multiple times in meaningful contexts.

Rather than isolated flashcard studying, personalized instruction weaves vocabulary into the topics and situations you care about, which helps your brain consolidate and retain new words. Tutors can also help you understand word families and connections (like how related verbs and nouns work together), which makes vocabulary stick better than memorizing isolated terms.

Verb conjugation patterns become intuitive through frequent exposure and use rather than through repetitive drilling. Expert tutors focus on the most common verbs and tenses you actually need for conversation, then build conjugation practice directly into speaking and writing activities so you're conjugating verbs in context rather than in isolation.

A skilled tutor will identify which conjugation patterns give you trouble specifically and design targeted practice around those patterns, integrated into real communicative situations. Over time, conjugations you practice regularly become automatic, while you'll learn less-common patterns as you need them.

Yes. Accent and pronunciation improvement requires hearing the correct sounds modeled repeatedly and getting feedback on your own pronunciation attempts—something that's difficult to develop on your own. Tutors can demonstrate proper mouth positioning and articulation, listen to your speech in real time, and give you specific corrections paired with strategies to retrain your speech patterns.

Expert tutors understand that some pronunciation challenges are common for speakers of your native language (like certain consonant clusters or vowel distinctions), so they can focus your practice on the sounds that will have the biggest impact on how clearly people understand you. Consistent, guided pronunciation practice with immediate feedback genuinely does improve accent and clarity.

Language and culture are deeply connected. Words, expressions, humor, and communication styles are all shaped by cultural context. Expert tutors often weave cultural knowledge into language instruction—explaining why certain phrases are used in specific situations, sharing cultural references, and helping you understand communication norms in the language communities you're studying.

This cultural context makes language learning richer and more meaningful, and it also helps you communicate more authentically. Understanding cultural nuances helps you use language more naturally and understand native speakers better. Many tutors can share insights from their own cultural backgrounds, which adds depth to your learning experience.

The answer depends on your current level and goals. For beginners, mixing your native language with the target language is often more effective than pure immersion, as it helps you understand explanations and reduces frustration. As you progress, expert tutors gradually increase the percentage of instruction and conversation in the target language.

A good tutor adjusts the immersion level to challenge you productively without overwhelming you. They might use your native language to explain complex grammar concepts or when you're stuck, but conduct most conversation and practice in the target language. This balanced approach keeps you engaged and building confidence while still pushing your language development forward.
