Fun in learning is how I approach tutoring with my students! A good balance of oral, written, and reading work, combined with the students' unique interests, keeps the sessions interesting!

Matthew H.
Case Western Reserve University
Expert Test Prep Tutor for ACT, SAT, GRE, GMAT and More
My name is Matthew H. I have been tutoring full-time for over 12 years. Many of my students have dramatically improved their proficiency and test scores. I am one of the top tutors because I am so easy to work with. I graduated Summa Cum Laude from Case Western Reserve University. I also earned a Provost Academic Scholarship for my excellent test scores, including 34 in ACT math and 780 in SAT math. I teach K - 12th grade, as well as college students and business professionals. I am patient, creative and friendly. Many of my students tell me that I explain concepts more effectively than their teachers. I am available weekdays or weekends, days or nights, for the entire year. Test Preparation Methodology a) A student will complete several manageable assignments throughout the week. b) During our tutoring session, we will identify specific errors and deficiencies. c) For each area of weakness, I will cover all facets of the topic to identify the root cause of the issue. d) We will develop a customized strategy turn problematic areas into strong foundations. e) Students will apply material covered to similar problems and scenarios. f) I will suggest practice test sections that will focus on subject matter needing reinforcement through targeted self-study. Typical score increases range from 3-8 points on the ACT. Some of my elite scholars have earned perfect scores on one or more of sub-sections. Study resources and practice tests and are available at no additional charge.

I believe learning should be enjoyable. Engaging teaching helps us enjoy the process of learning, and allows the information to stick much more easily in our minds.
Hi! My name is Steve and I live in Ottawa. My focus is on English literature since that's what I studied in university but there are several other topics that I help tutor as well. My strengths are patience, communicating in different styles, and creativity in teaching.

Reading and Writing are What I Love And Teach!
I am a passionate logophile, who loves nothing better than to discuss and teach grammar and literature with people. Learning parts of speech, sentence structure, and composition techniques doesn't have to be a stressful undertaking! I can remove the panic and frustration from your battle with words and turn your studies into an interesting, if not fascinating journey of discovering the power of writing. When I'm not scribbling down story ideas or reading countless books, I enjoy playing mandolin or hanging out with my Muscovy ducks. I enjoy teaching grammar, English, ESL, literature, as well as other related subjects for grades K-12. PLEASE NO ADULT OR COLLEGE STUDENTS. Please note! I will not accept requests for assignment help where a student asks me to write his or her entire essay, response to literature, or any other written work. I will write alongside or do revision/ final draft work on students' projects. However, to give a pupil a finished product that came 100% from my pen only is professionally and ethically wrong in my viewpoint. I am a teacher and peer reviewer, not a writer for hire or an accomplice to plagiarism. Thanks!

Need help with math, language, logic, science, or technology? I'm here for you!
Aloha, friend! My name is Lucas Jarrett, and I’m an online tutor! If I had to characterize my approach to helping people learn in simple terms, I would say that I believe education is a matter of teaching adaptability. The ability to adapt, or the capacity to change, is the fundamental skill of learning all things. We must always be prepared to adopt new ways of being. When we study life, we study the infinite; and when we study the infinite, our mindsets must be similar, or else we will not see everything that we could have seen. To realize that learning is the art of changing is to begin learning everything more easily. My primary goal is to help my students see and apply this awareness when studying anything they hope to do well. I have professional experience teaching many subjects, including arithmetic, algebra, trigonometry, geometry, philosophy, biology, history, psychology, music, billiards, writing, research, literature, English, Java, Python, HTML, CSS, SQL, and more. Furthermore, I’m happy to offer insight into cognitive habits that often bring academic trouble, such as perfectionism, motivation, inattention, depression, and anxiety. I do not limit my educational strategies to any single methodology; I believe that every individual has a unique path in life, and I therefore work to be responsive to the specific, immediate needs of my students. Context is everything. If I'm trying to help a student become a better reader and writer, I may recommend that we explore good literature together; if I am helping someone prepare for a test in geometry, good practice problems and instructional resources will likely be part of the process. I tutor many subjects not listed here, so feel free to ask about anything! If I know how to help in a reasonable timeframe, I will help! 🙂 Note: I offer discounts to people who have financial need or pay in bulk. Please feel free to contact me directly to discuss options if my posted rate is beyond your budget!

Expert Chemistry, Biology, Anatomy, CASPER & MCAT Lecturer + Tutor - 10 years experience - Medical Resident
I am a junior medical resident with over 9 years of experience tutoring university courses and the MCAT. I scored in the 97th percentile for the Chem/Phys and 99th percentile for the Bio/Biochem sections of the MCAT (2017). I have also taught university exam prep and MCAT science lessons to in-person classes of over 150 students, as well as recorded over 1000 hours of 1-on-1 tutoring. Additionally, my work experience as a TA has taught me the ins and outs of how university exams are written, along with what students can expect from them. In chemistry and biology courses I can consistently predict the types of questions (and occasionally exact questions) that come up on exams. On top of my lecturing experience, I have also helped students to prepare for the MCAT exam. If you're writing the MCAT, I can work with you to design a study schedule, recommend high yield resources, as well as teach you an approach on how to tackle important MCAT questions/passages. In general, when tutoring I like to break down complex concepts into smaller steps using silly and efficient tricks. I've additionally completed a Master's in Neurosciences/Neuroanatomy and finished medical school in Canada. I have expertise tutoring the following tests/subjects ($100/hour): MCAT (Chem/Phys, CARS, Bio, Psych/Soc) Organic Chemistry (>3000 hours between tutoring + TA + class instruction) General Chemistry Biology (TA experience) Physics I also have expertise in Medicine, Musculoskeletal Anatomy, Neuroscience and offer sessions in Medicine/NBME/Nursing/Physiotherapy/MSK Anatomy/Neuroanatomy/Pharmacy/CASPER exam for ***$50/hr (50% discount) Scored in the top quartile on the CASPER examination (2022) Below are sample tutoring resources that I created to complement my lessons. Also, I have attached some of my student's MCAT scores before versus after our tutoring sessions! Reach out if you're interested in setting up a session! :)

Nick W.
University of Maryland College Park, Montgomery College
Anthropology Major at University of Maryland With Extensive Experience Tutoring English and Essay Writing
I have been tutoring for the past 7 years, and am an avid reader, writer and learner. My focus is mainly on essay writing, with a secondary emphasis on English. With clients, I aim to shape the way they are able to structure and articulate their thoughts, as I believe anyone can write well and effectively if the right focus is developed and techniques used. I help students with things like mechanics, formatting, and structure. Whether a research paper, college admissions essay, or just a creative writing assignment, I have a proven record of success with students of all ages and learning styles. I view writing as a craft, and I tailor my teaching style based on this.
