Hi there! I am a graduate of Pepperdine University, with a degree in business administration and minor in applied mathematics. Since graduation, I have worked for U.S. Bank as an anti-money laundering investigator and tutored students both remotely and in person. While I tutor a broad range of subjects, I am most passionate about mathematics, with considerable experience tutoring anything from pre-algebra to Calculus 1. I have also tutored for the ACT, covering time management and strategy as well as problem solving. I like to get to know my students, learning what drives them so I can better motivate them to succeed.

English Tutor • +10 Subjects

I have the Master of Arts degree from Pepperdine University. From my under- graduate college days on, I have taught ages from older elementary through older adults in one-on-one, class room, camp, auditorium and church settings. These presentations have also taken place during hosting a 21-day Israel, Jordan, Egypt and Greek Isles Tour and 7-day tour to Brazil. In addition to Brazil I instructed through a translator for 1 month of college in Port-au-Prince, Haiti, and on various occasions in Mexico and the Navajo Reservation in the SW U.S.A.In summary, I have served in leadership roles with various non-profit boards where skills were developed in interpersonal communications. I have conducted well over 50 special event activities in 11 states and 4 foreign countries, with over 2500 participants, as well as consulting on many topics for churches and businesses.With my education, ministerial, college instructing, non-profit and life experiences, I am looking forward to those who would be interested in any of a broad range of subjects, including but not limited to those I am most excited about: History, Social Studies, Ethics, World Religions, Religion, and Theology.Believing it to be absolutely necessary for an improved quality of life, I am a proponent of not only education but of continuing education. Some of my continuing education included: Marriage Preparation and Enrichment certification, Managing Conflict seminars and workshops, special faculty training from University of Phoenix and many other professional, specialty training workshops. I trust this enthusiasm and appreciation will be imparted to all of my students.In my spare time, I enjoy family time, reading, an active church participation and some sports, all which enriches my life!

Elsbeth

Biology Tutor • +6 Subjects

I recently graduated from Indiana University (IU) with a Bachelor of Science in Molecular Life Sciences with a concentration in Molecular and Cellular Biology and a Bachelor of Arts in Gender Studies. While I was at IU, I was a teacher's assistant (TA) for Molecular Biology. While this can be a difficult subject, I loved being able to explain the intricacies of it to students during office hours. I was also a member of Alpha Chi Sigma, a professional chemistry fraternity, for three years; we provided free Chemistry tutoring once a week and helped students with test prep. My favorite job I've ever had was as at an IU summer program for freshmen, where I was a TA for a class about feminist and psychoanalytic film analysis of horror movies. I absolutely loved working with my students and introducing them to the new, weird world of horror movie analysis. Currently, I tutor for Biology, History, English, and Social Studies. I'm very excited about this opportunity to be a tutor because I know what it's like to struggle in a class, and I wish I would have reached out to a tutor myself. It's so important for students to have the resources they need to succeed in and even enjoy their education. My hope is that through tutoring, I can show students another way of looking at the subject. In my spare time, I've been devouring audiobooks and podcasts about history, race, gender, and colonialism while I play Pokemon on my Switch.

Greetings! I am an instructor of writing at Northeastern University. American literature and culture is my passion and my specialty area. I am also an experienced researcher and academic writer. In the spring of 2016 I finished my PhD in English at Northeastern University, and since then I have been teaching college writing courses and tutoring international students, mostly from China, Korea, and Russia. Working with students to help them succeed in the areas of literature, cultural studies, writing, and grammar brings me great joy. There is nothing better, and more fulfilling than helping others find success.

Melissa

Academic Coaching Tutor • +24 Subjects

I am a 2016 graduate of the University of Southern Maine. I have my Bachelor of Arts in Economics and a Minor in English. I was selected to be the student commencement speaker for my graduating class and have additional experience with public speaking and group facilitation. I graduated at the top of my economics department while in undergrad and served as a teacher's assistant (TA) for two of my economics professors while in school. I was also a part of the women's outdoor track and field team and was co-chair of multiple student groups on campus. I tutored my classmates in English, writing, public speaking, economics, and business primarily but have assisted with other subjects as well, such as statistics.I truly enjoy working with students as it is most rewarding to help students reach their full academic potential, which is not always realized in a classroom setting alone. While I tutor a range of subjects, I am most passionate about tutoring writing because good writing is truly foundational and essential in so many areas of life. I also enjoy teaching students good study habits and organizational techniques that are conducive to greater learning and set students up for higher academic achievement and success. I would describe my teaching style as focused and collaborative, but also casual so as to make my students feel like they can ask questions at any time throughout the learning process. One of my overarching goals with tutoring is to inspire student interest in subjects that have been troublesome to them, because oftentimes it is not the subject itself, but how the subject is taught that can inspire interest.

College English Tutor • +12 Subjects

I am a graduate of Ripon College. I received my Bachelor of Arts in History and Spanish Language and Literature with high honors. I have four years of experience tutoring both Spanish and English. Since graduation I have spent the last two years living in Spain where I taught and tutored private English classes. My favorite subject to tutor is Spanish because I am passionate about the language and about helping students understand and master its intricacies. I am an avid proponent of education because I believe that an enriched education is key to both personal and professional success. I believe that a tutor is a bridge between the student's potential and the subject matter. I believe in helping students become independent learners by fostering critical thinking skills through asking questions, presenting the information in a new light and encouraging them to feel confident and inspired while learning. In my spare time I enjoy enriching my body and mind through reading, hiking, dancing and traveling.

I am currently working towards a BS in Music Education at Case Western Reserve University. In the past I have worked with middle school orchestra students at an arts summer camp, where I was a volunteer Teacher's Assistant. During this camp I ran sectionals with small groups of students and sat in with the violinists to help individual students in large group rehearsals. I have some tutoring and organization experience by working with my high school's chapter of the California Scholarship Federation, where we offered free tutoring to other high school students. I am most passionate about tutoring algebra and pre-calculus, because I really enjoy the problem-solving aspects of math. I also tutor English and SAT prep. In my free time I enjoy cooking, reading, and practicing as many different instruments as I can get my hands on!

Kimberla

Elementary School Tutor • +24 Subjects

I knew I wanted to teach by the third grade. I went into teaching right after high school and graduated from Wayne State University with a Bachelor of Science in Elementary Education four years later. I eventually acquired a Masters in the Art of Teaching from Marygrove College. I've taught grades K-6 as a full time classroom teacher in Michigan, Arkansas, and Texas. I've taught online to Ohio and two different countries. I worked as a math specialist for two years of my career. I've also worked as a scorer for standardized tests in math and writing. I opened my own daycare and tutoring services (Mrs. Teacher's Tutoring Lab) while raising my own little one. Therefore, I've been involved in all aspects of education and enjoyed every bit of it. I've developed a lot of skills over the years to close learning gaps, enhance the high achiever, and help the average student reach new goals; so that all can have a pleasant and interesting learning experience. I'm looking forward to working with you.

If there is one thing I have learned from my years working in neurobiology labs, it's that brains learn best in engaging, low-stress environments. I take great pride in creating those environments with students, especially during times as chaotic as these.I firmly believe that there are no boring or inaccessible subjects--only ones that haven't yet been presented in the right context!When students are inherently interested in the material at hand, I enjoy stoking those flames. When students find an assignment boring or intimidating, I enjoy finding just the right resources to help relate it to fun and familiar concepts.I've found that it's easy and fun to get a feel for molecular biology fundamentals by looking at models of DNA/RNA/protein--thousands of which are available for free at the Protein Data Bank.I'm always trying to encourage more people to play with this free and easy-to-use resource for biomolecular art/education. I would love to show you how to use it in your studies (or just for fun)!The Protein Data Bank offers a wealth of other educational materials, too. (I don't work for them or anything--I just really, really like structural biology art!) http://pdb101.rcsb.org/

Frequently Asked Questions

Students typically struggle with several key areas: understanding the universe design layer and how objects relate to the database, managing complex report formatting and conditional logic, and optimizing query performance as datasets grow larger. Many also find the transition from basic queries to advanced features like parameters, filters, and cascading prompts challenging. Additionally, users often underestimate the importance of understanding their underlying data structure before diving into report creation, which leads to inefficient designs. A tutor can help you build a strong foundation in these core concepts and develop a strategic approach to tackling more complex projects.

The best tutors have hands-on experience with SAP BusinessObjects across different modules—whether that's Web Intelligence, Crystal Reports, or universe design—and can teach both the technical skills and real-world best practices. They should be able to explain not just the "how" but the "why" behind design decisions, help you understand your organization's specific data model, and guide you through actual reporting scenarios you'll encounter on the job. Look for someone who can break down complex concepts into manageable steps and adapt their teaching style to your learning pace and background.

The timeline depends on your starting point and goals. If you're learning the fundamentals of Web Intelligence or Crystal Reports with basic SQL knowledge, expect 4-8 weeks of consistent study to build competency with core reporting features. Mastering universe design or advanced features like complex filtering and nested queries typically requires 8-12 weeks or more. With personalized 1-on-1 instruction, you can accelerate this timeline by focusing on your specific gaps and learning pathways that match your job requirements, rather than generic training materials.

Absolutely. A good tutor helps you connect classroom concepts to your actual job scenarios—whether that's building dashboards for your department, troubleshooting slow reports, or designing reports that meet specific business requirements. Personalized instruction means you can bring real data (or similar data) to your sessions and work through actual challenges you're facing. This applied approach not only accelerates your learning but also ensures you're building skills that directly transfer to your workplace and increase your immediate value as a team member.

While not required, familiarity with databases and SQL basics significantly speeds up your learning—especially for universe design and advanced queries. If you're new to these concepts, don't worry; a tutor can teach you the necessary SQL fundamentals alongside BusinessObjects. Understanding your organization's database structure and basic business logic also helps. Starting with foundational knowledge ensures you build reports efficiently rather than through trial-and-error, which saves time and reduces frustration as you progress to more sophisticated features.

The core concepts—universe design, report building, filtering, and formatting—remain consistent across versions, so foundational learning translates well between them. However, newer versions (BI 4.x and Cloud) have different interfaces and some enhanced features compared to older versions (XI 3.x). Your tutor should be familiar with the specific version used in your environment so they can guide you through actual workflows and help you leverage version-specific tools. If you're preparing for a certification or job that requires a particular version, make sure to discuss that upfront.

The best approach combines structured lessons on core concepts with hands-on practice on real or realistic datasets. Start by building a strong understanding of universe design and data relationships, then move to creating simple reports before tackling complex features. Between sessions, practice what you've learned on your own and bring questions about challenges you encounter. Personalized 1-on-1 instruction lets your tutor identify your specific weak areas—whether that's SQL logic, report formatting, or performance optimization—and focus time where you need it most, rather than spending weeks on topics you've already mastered.
