Your Personal Academic Coach

Responds within half an hour
(4)
I am a personal academic coach on a mission to help my students live up to their full academic potential. I have my very own academic coaching studio where I provide personal instruction. I also offer virtual tutoring sessions online. It's important to me that I make learning fun for my students by helping to build their confidence and challenging their minds. I started out as a director for a professional tutoring company. This is where I got most of my training. Now, with my own academic coaching service, I provide fun and engaging strategies to help students gain a deeper and more clear understanding of the subject material. Each student's academic coaching plan starts with an assessment, so that I can pinpoint specific areas to focus on and give personalized instruction in a way that is most effective, so that my students can SHINE academically!

Tutoring Especially For Home-Schoolers

Responds within 4 hours
(5)
I have been tutoring children since 1980. I love doing it and have had a lot of success teaching children. I enjoy teaching and I want my students to enjoy our lessons too. I have a great deal of respect for homeschooling and prefer tutoring those who are home-schooled. I am very good with shy or nervous children. I'm also good with children who have become discouraged and dislike doing schoolwork. I have 11 students I'm tutoring now, from my youngest student who is 4 years old, up to one who is 15 years old (I've been helping the 15-year-old since he was 10), and one adult guitar students. My after-school hours and weekends are quite full now, so I'd like to get homeschooling students or children I can work with during the day some other way.

My name is Krista. I'm an educator, researcher, and organizer in the field of education. I love working with students of all ages to help them set and meet their own goals. Not only am I a teacher, I am a successful student and test taker - I graduated magna cum laude from Washington University in St. Louis, and I scored in the 99th percentile of both the SAT and the GRE. I can teach for long-term understanding if that is your goal, and/or I can teach strategies to help you increase your test scores and grades if that is your goal. I am here to help you with whatever you need to succeed!

I have personally had Krista assist me with essays and time/project organization. Krista sees each student as a capable and important person. She is organized, engaging, creative, and kind; her goal is to nurture learners through innovative and inclusive teaching. Krista cares about each student's progress, and genuinely enjoys the opportunity to spark wonder, boost confidence, and make learning positive. Her ability to combine enthusiasm with goal-oriented methods makes her an exceptional educator.

Multi-Subject Grade School/ESL Tutor

Responds within a day

I have been a private tutor since 1998 and am a Wesleyan University graduate. I am now providing online tutoring to students enrolled in full or partial remote learning plans. I cover multiple subjects (including English, Elementary Math, and Algebra I), test preparation (including the ISEE, PSAT, and SSAT), and English as a Second Language (ESL) for children and adults. For six years, I taught writing proficiency and math at an after-school tutoring center to students of various ages. To aid in my English and ESL tutoring, I draw on my years of experience editing novels, graduate-level research papers, and news stories for broadcast on commercial radio and television stations.

Douglas, has been tutoring my daughter all summer in writing and math. We are very please with the outcome and experience. My daughter can easily get distracted and Douglas was great at redirecting her back on the task, and getting her to focus to finish her work. I definitely would recommend him as a tutor.

Experienced Mathematics Tutor

Responds within an hour
(11)
Need support? My goal is for your kids to be independent. Kids have a much different atmosphere than just 10 or even 5 years ago. They need the truth (hint: it's not easy), and to build good work habits. They need to be 'taught' how to study and how to filter immense amounts of data. They need that push that turns a 1-hour session into and an hour of resetting their minds on how to think and perceive. Math is an incredible tool to help get back to those priceless tools of Reasoning and Sense-Making. That's what I'd like to bring to the table. My TIME is dedicated to developing the chemistry needed to stay focused and to inspire independence in my students. I do not guarantee anything and no tutor should. I want them to think "I don't need Ray, I can do this AND SUCCEED." My rate is $100/hour of Reasoning, Sense-Making, Independence, Convenience, ease of scheduling, communication and peace of mind. *First session is FREE* Hope to hear from you!
