Devon W.
University of California - Los Angeles, Milton Academy
UCLA student passionate about helping students with writing, Classics, and English!
*** First half-hour session FREE *** Hi! I'm Devon, and I love to learn. I also know how much the process of learning can suck. Sometimes, no matter how hard a student tries, they just can't keep up. The content simply isn't being taught in a way that's compatible with how they learn. That's where I come in! I want to help you learn in the way that's best for *you*. Figuring out how to tailor my approach and reframe topics so that you can best understand them is my favorite part of tutoring! Whether that's coming up with custom practice problems, annotation systems, study guides, or just working things through together, I am here for you. Specifically, I'm here to help you with English (grammar as well as creative and academic essay writing/editing), Latin, ancient Greek, and introductory statistics. (For those interested in statistics, message me for free access to my R cheat sheet!) Now, on to the boring stuff. I'm a member of the UCLA class of 2024 currently pursuing a B.A. in Linguistics and Classical Languages with a minor in Professional Writing and a specialization in computing (GPA 3.973). Before college, I graduated Cum Laude from Milton Academy, #8 on Business Insider's "The 50 most elite boarding schools in America," where I served as a peer tutor for three years, helping students with Latin, English, writing, and math.

Rajini C.
Wilfrid Laurier University
English and academic writing tutor
Hi! My name is Rajini and I am an experienced English/ writing tutor. I will help you to improve your writing and literary analysis skills with my tailored lessons. In our sessions, you can expect empathetic, patient instruction and helpful strategies to enhance your reading and writing abilities. I specialize in grammar and expression and literary analysis essays, but I am open to creating custom plans based on your needs. My typical session will consist of us going through a piece of your own writing. Before we look at the writing I will ask a few questions to get an idea of the scope of the assignment and what you think needs improvement. Then we will go through the piece line by line or paragraph by paragraph to find opportunities to improve your grammar, expression, linkage of ideas and spelling/punctuation. Finally, we will wrap up by summarizing the lesson and you can apply the takeaways to future writing assignments. Please note I will not do your assignment for you as the idea is to become a better writer yourself, not just to complete the assignment and forget the process. I pride myself on being thorough and professional but also an approachable and friendly person. Our sessions are for you to ask questions so don't be shy! There's no such thing as a stupid question :^) Don't hesitate to contact me if you want to take your reading and writing skills to the next level! I look forward to setting up a lesson.

I'm a very patient tutor who believes that with the right mindset and eagerness to learn, we all have the power to achieve whatever we set our minds to. I have experience in helping students master the English language and becoming confident in reading, writing and speaking in English. In our class, we're going to focus on grammar, pronunciation, comprehension and vocabulary, as these are the core concepts of mastering the English language. I am a very relaxed yet professional tutor and understand that the learning process can often be very stressful already, so I do not want to add to that. I'll create a holistic environment that stimulates constant growth and challenges oneself to improve through getting out-of one's comfort zone and stretching one's mind so as to see how far one's capabilities can reach with mastering new language learning skills.

This will allow me to structure our conversations in such a way as to eventually fulfil your goals of speaking your desired language as fluently and as confidently as possible. It does not matter what language or languages you currently speak, all that you need is the eagerness and the willpower to learn.

Emily K.
Stockton University
Experienced College & K-12 Tutor- Math, Physics, Economics, Science, & Writing
Key Words: Discrete Math, Discrete Mathematics, Proofs, Pre-Calc, Pre-Calculus, PreCalc, PreCalculus, Calc or Calculus, Alg or Algebra, Trig or Trigonometry, Geometry, College Math, College Mathematics, Quantitative Reasoning, high school math or mathematics, Common Core, 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th, 7th, 8th grade I tutor students in College/University & K-12 and have 5+ yrs of experience as an online/remote Tutor. I specialize in undergraduate Math, but also frequently tutor Physics, Economics, Taxation, and English/Writing. I love Math & always hope that my enthusiasm/encouragement can help students, whether they are looking to progress in Math or just complete their required courses. I have found that all students will hit a group of Mathematical concepts that just do not click, whether it is early in K-12 or not until 3rd-4th year university level Math. It can be very frustrating, especially when it is difficult or even impossible to obtain the necessary help from teachers, campus tutors, etc. The primary goal of hiring a tutor is to receive individualized assistance & a customized approach. That is why I tailor my explanations to each student's learning style. For instance, some students prefer that I look over their work & just give them hints when they get stuck. Other students prefer to provide me with specific questions they are stuck on, & have me show them as a tutorial. I particularly try to focus on the underlying concepts & provide the student with context as to how each concept matters. Far too often, students are told to do things a certain way, but they are not told why nor even how it pertains overall. I have a BS in Mathematics from Stockton University. During college, I developed study groups in Partial Diff Eq, Engineering Graphics, & Adv Discrete Math. I was also Treasurer of Stockton's Math Club, which focused primarily on assisting local students & hosted an annual Math Mayhem competition between 12 N.J. High Schools.
