Algebra, Biology, Social Studies, General Scien... Tutor in Minneapolis, MN

Thu, 29 Jan 2009 01:59:12 +0000

Tutor Profile

Gender:
Female

Preferred Subjects

Algebra, Biology, Social Studies, General Science, Geography, Study Skills/Organization, Psychology

Education

Alumni International Studies and other major at the University of Wisconsin-River Falls

Experience:

I would like to tutor your son or daughter because I believe that every student has the potential to do well in all of their classes! Sometimes all the student needs is a person to present the material at an individual basis. When I was younger, I always enjoyed sharing what I learned in school with my younger brothers. As a tutor, I would do the same with each student. Class has always been exiting to me, and I believe that I can share that excitement with the students. Student/teacher ratios are on the rise. It is easy for students to fall behind when the teacher is unable to give them the attention they need to succeed. I will do what it takes to help your son or daughter succeed in their classes.
