Approved subjects are in bold.

Approved subjects

In most cases, tutors gain approval in a subject by passing a proficiency exam. For some subject areas, like music and art, tutors submit written requests to demonstrate their proficiency to potential students. If a tutor is interested but not yet approved in a subject, the subject will appear in non-bold font. Tutors need to be approved in a subject prior to beginning lessons.

Grammar

It is a personal quest for me to know and use grammar properly. One of my jobs at several schools was to prepare the school newsletter. I wanted to make sure it put a positive light on the school. There is nothing worse than publishing a newsletter from an educational institution with grammatical errors. Also I have taught English grammar to middle and high school students for 25 years. By writing grants, I was able to enrich the classroom materials available to my students. No one will award a poorly written grant.
