"Arts and English tutor with a focus on art history and writing."
I have 5 years of tutoring experience and 3 years of teaching experience. What I love about tutoring is being able to watch someone grow in a subject that they assumed they would not see progress in. I am currently a college student as well and understand that there is a power in having a peer as a resource for things that are difficult or hard to understand.
I have more than five years of experience tutoring English writing. I have participated in several writing workshops and creative w... ... More

Amelia is a fantastic tutor. She tutored my daughter in Latin this summer. We were worried about teaching styles and the ability of someone to have an impact for just one hour a week. Amelia is patient, interested in Latin, as well as Greek, and truly enjoys tutoring and teaching. She absolutely appreciated having a dedicated student who needed a reliable, organized and personable tutor.
I definitely recommend Amelia. My daughter met with her a short distance from home. She is very flexible and easy going. My daughter just wanted to stay ahead of the game over the summer so that everything is fresh in her mind when she returns to school. She didn't need to be tutored but wanted and enjoyed the experience with Amelia. My daughter is a superb student who enjoys to learn, and Amelia is a fantastic teacher who loves to teach others.

My son has greatly improved his math skills working with Alex. He was resistant to tutoring but goes every Sunday without an argument. I would highly recommend Alex.

Ahmed is well-versed in test-taking strategies and has a calm manner. He is observant of problem areas and addresses them directly and goes back to them appropriately. I am approaching the GRE from a point of many years out of school and am pretty rusty in math (with some math-anxiety) and test-taking strategies, so his input has been very helpful.

Marc is a great tutor and really knows his stuff. He has a great passion for AutoCAD and drafting and loves to share his knowledge. After my second tutoring session with Marc I felt so much more comfortable using the commands and drawing. I'm an interior design student and drafting does not come naturally to me but Marc made it interesting and easy!
