ACCUPLACER ESL - Reading Skills Tutor • +33 Subjects

I believe that every person can get better at their task if they put their mind to it. I am a fifth year teacher who has taught both social studies and language arts at the middle school level. I've tutored at the elementary and adult levels, as well. My goal as a tutor is to help and guide students where they need/want to be. I want to know that my students understand the subject or topic at hand. As a teacher already, I know how to make connections and meaning to the topic and can help guide others into understanding, as well. I am driven to helping others accomplish their goal no matter how many sessions it takes, because that is my job.

I have nine years of experience teaching in the bilingual classroom. I have taught three different grade levels: pre-K, first grade, and third grade. I have implemented two different bilingual programs, "Regular Bilingual Classroom" and "Two-Way Dual Language." I have worked with students who functioned below, on, and above grade level. I have been very successful at meeting diverse students' needs by facilitating different learning strategies, offering individualized support, encouraging critical thinking, and integrating a variety of resources.Teaching in a bilingual classroom is challenging and motivating for any educator. Bilingual students are in need of special care and attention in the learning process throughout the year. Although some learners might have strong linguistic skills in their native language, they may have deficiencies in their second language; it is the task of the teacher to help guide the student through this learning process.

Scott

BASIC Tutor • +50 Subjects

Since I was a small child, I knew that I wanted to help people. When I am old and fragile, I want to be able to look back on my life and smile about what I have accomplished. Joining the PhD program for Kinesiology at Wayne State University greatly supports me in this mission. As part of my education, I have had the privilege of being immersed in disability culture; this prepared me to pursue my Doctoral Degree in Kinesiology in Education.My interest in becoming an educator dates back to my early elementary years. As with most students, I had experiences with instructors that varied between the good, the bad and the ugly. When my experiences were good, I excelled, took risks, learn, and I would push myself to master a skill. With the bad instances, I would shy away and try not to be noticed by the teacher. I quietly attempted to look busy. The ugly experiences were where I would become embarrassed and completely disengage with a lesson and from an instructor. Even at a young age, I saw which one of these people I would want to model. So the seed was planted in my head to become not just an educator, but a person to inspire others to reach for the stars and strive to achieve their full potential. In my free time I enjoy basketball and teaching.

Nana

ACT Writing Tutor • +35 Subjects

Hey there! I am a programmer, writer, computer technician, and poet originally from Ghana, West Africa. I'm in my second year of college and pursuing a BS in Computer Science at the City College of New York. I have taken numerous college classes since high school such as Calculus, European History, and Physics. Additionally, I have completed a Data Strucutres and Programming course with a grade in the A range. I have been able to excel in these courses, by using online study tools such as videos and developing effective routines. I understand how frustrating it feels to spend so much time struggling to learn a topic and I also know how applying the right strategies to learning can make all the difference. For example, strategies such as close question analyzation can help students to mentally digest complex problems and help them assess the tools they can use to solve them.I look forward to helping all students to achieve more than they imagined and to develop the cognitive skills needed to succeed in the face of new challenges. Since my second year in high school, I have always searched out for opportunities to help others succeed in their courses. In my second year, I joined a club that assisted middle school students in preparing for their state exams. By means of persistence and effective studying techniques and continual practice, I assisted students to successfully complete both their Math and English state exams. Most recently, in 2019, I participated in a STEM summer program where I assisted middle school students to apply basic engineering principles such as prototyping to build various cardboard structures powered by Arduino circuit boards. I tirelessly worked to help all of them complete their projects and patiently worked with the needs of each student Furthermore, I assisted them in improving their critical thinking and problem-solving skills in order to effectively analyze problems and develop solutions to problems that they would encounter. I encouraged them to use the plethora of resources that are on the Internet to increase their knowledge. All these tactics enabled all 15 students I worked with to successfully demo their final projects.Currently, I am utilizing online resources to communicate with and assist students in math subjects such as Algebra and Calculus in programming languages such as C++ and even Middle School subjects. The students I work with have been able to successfully complete homework assignments and prepare for exams. I give each student an opportunity to assess their own knowledge first and then assist them, by means of questions and reasoning, to improve and master their coursework and gain skills. Helping students to successfully master concepts in their courses is certainly my top priority. I will work vigorously and effectively to help the students I tutor to achieve their highest However, this is not my only goal. I want to empower all my students to use all the tools and resources that are at their disposal to excel in whatever endeavor they take on. For example, when I work with a student on a problem I will not only help them understand and solve the problem at hand but I will teach them the techniques and strategies to solve similar problems, strategies such as problem deconstruction and examination. Truly, I want my students not only to reach for the stars but to get there and strive even farther.

Christina

Arithmetic Tutor • +22 Subjects

I am an Assistant Director and 8th grade history teacher at a charter school in downtown Phoenix. I previously taught 3rd and 6th grade all subjects (math, science, history, language arts, writing and phonics). I have a teaching license in elementary education and have obtained a Master's in Elementary Education at Arizona State University. I also obtained my B.A. from Michigan State University with a double major in Humanities-Pre-Law and Women's Studies.I have been tutoring children for five years. While attending Michigan State University, I tutored 5th graders at a inner city elementary school as well as a preschooler and kindergartener whom attended a Montessori school. While in Phoenix, during my first year of teaching I tutored a 1st grader as well as students of various grades K-8 at my school. While I am passionate about every subject I teach, I especially enjoy math, english language arts and history. Mastering these subjects are pivotal to the success of elementary students and I enjoy creating different activities to help kids become excited about and invested in the subject. I believe that it is important to treat each child as an individual and customize the work to fit their needs and interests. Tutoring is much more than providing academic assistance to children, it is about building trusting relationships and instilling in them confidence to help them reach their full potential.I am very well rounded with many different interests. I love to spend time with family and friends, read, exercise, enjoy the outdoors, camp, roller blade, travel, cook, music, movies, arts and crafts, and the list goes on!

I love to learn, and I love to teach; I hope we can soon learn from each other!I believe in the potential of Dr. Carol Dweck's "growth mindset," and strongly feel that any student can succeed at what they really want--if they have access to the right tools. My goal is to help students find those tools so they can use them effectively and independently in the future.My primary experience has been in reading, writing, various kinds of science, and the arts, but I am happy to research and help students with other subjects as well!

It has been wonderful learning about how childhood development changes with each year. I look forward to being able to work one on one with more children so that they can develop a lifelong passion for learning!

Soren

American Literature Tutor • +14 Subjects

I began teaching at the college level nearly ten years ago, and have taught courses in writing, literature, philosophy, and history. I have taught a wide diversity of students in a variety of contexts at several different institutions, including a one-an-a-half year tenure in Senegal working with West African students. As a professor, I have always highly valued opportunities to work with students on a one-on-one basis, and this experience led me to seek out work as a tutor. As a tutor I am most passionate about teaching writing, critical thinking, history and philosophy.I am a currently a doctoral student in the Philosophy Department at Stony Brook University, presently in the dissertation writing phase of the program. I have a MA in Art History and Theory from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago and a BFA in Painting from Maryland Institute College of Art.When beginning to work with a student no matter the level of the student or the subject matter to be covered I always make sure that the student and I are on the same page. This means, in the first place, that I understand exactly what the students goal is and what she or he wants and needs from me. It also means that the student understands how I plan to facilitate the achievement of her or his goal. I am also sure to learn from the student what she or he feels to be their greatest weakness or source of difficulty in the pursuit of their goal. Establishing all of these things at the outset allows me to devise the most effective lessons and the ensures that the tutoring process is as effective and efficient as possible.

Frequently Asked Questions

Junior year is when course difficulty peaks—students juggle AP/honors classes, standardized test prep (SAT/ACT), college applications, and increased homework loads simultaneously. After-school tutoring provides focused time to tackle specific problem areas before they compound, whether that's calculus concepts, essay writing for AP Lang/Lit, chemistry lab reports, or test-taking strategies. A tutor can help students manage the cognitive load by breaking complex material into digestible chunks and creating sustainable study habits that prevent burnout.

Many 11th graders need to balance maintaining strong grades while preparing for standardized tests—a tutor can strategically connect the two. For example, improving reading comprehension skills directly boosts both AP Literature performance and SAT/ACT reading scores, while algebra mastery supports both precalculus grades and math test sections. Personalized tutoring allows students to identify which foundational gaps are holding them back across both academic and testing contexts, then address those gaps efficiently rather than studying in isolation.

Successful 11th graders need to master active learning techniques like spaced repetition, practice testing, and retrieval practice—skills that significantly improve retention compared to passive review. They also need to develop metacognitive awareness: understanding which subjects require deep conceptual work versus which need procedural practice, and how to allocate limited after-school hours accordingly. A tutor helps students build these executive function skills by modeling effective study strategies, teaching them to self-assess their understanding, and creating accountability systems that work with their schedule.

The jump from standard to honors or AP courses requires not just content mastery but also shifts in analytical thinking and academic rigor. Tutors help students develop the deeper conceptual understanding these courses demand—moving beyond memorization to understanding the 'why' behind concepts, making connections across topics, and engaging with more complex problem-solving. For students new to AP courses, tutors can also teach the specific exam format, pacing strategies, and free-response techniques that differ significantly from traditional tests.

Effective 11th grade tutors combine strong subject expertise with understanding of adolescent learning and junior-year pressures. They should have demonstrated mastery in their subject area (ideally including AP-level coursework or equivalent), experience with standardized testing, and the ability to diagnose why a student is struggling—whether it's a conceptual gap, a test-taking strategy issue, or an organizational problem. Beyond academics, strong tutors are skilled at building rapport with teens, recognizing signs of stress or overwhelm, and helping students develop confidence during a high-pressure year.

Progress extends beyond grade improvements—students should demonstrate increased independence in problem-solving, better retention of concepts over time, and stronger performance on cumulative assessments like midterms and standardized tests. Observable improvements include students asking more sophisticated questions, catching their own mistakes, and applying learned strategies to new problems without prompting. Parents and students often notice reduced stress, improved confidence, and more efficient study sessions within 4-6 weeks of consistent tutoring.

Math (especially precalculus, calculus, and statistics), chemistry, and AP humanities courses are where 11th graders most frequently seek tutoring support. Math struggles often stem from accumulated gaps in foundational algebra or geometry; chemistry requires both conceptual understanding and problem-solving skills that many students haven't fully developed; and AP courses demand essay-writing, analytical reading, and synthesis skills that need explicit instruction. Language-based courses also see increased tutoring needs as students tackle more sophisticated literary analysis and argumentative writing.

Ideal frequency depends on the student's goals and challenges, but research on spaced practice suggests that consistent, regular sessions (1-2 times per week) produce better long-term retention than cramming before exams. Students tackling a single challenging subject often benefit from weekly sessions; those juggling multiple courses or test prep may need twice-weekly support. The key is consistency—regular shorter sessions build better study habits and catch misunderstandings early, compared to sporadic intensive sessions.
