About James


Bio

Hi I'm James! Have you ever been frustrated when you do not get a concept no matter how much your teacher/instructor explains it to you? I’ve been there and I’m here to help! I love helping people find new ways to look at concepts and love tackling challenges they have learning them.

I’ve been an educator for a diverse range of ages and subject areas. I studied Middle Childhood Education in undergrad (specifically ELA, Math, and Social Studies) and also received a Masters in Business...

Hi I'm James! Have you ever been frustrated when you do not get a concept no matter how much your teacher/instructor explains it to you? I’ve been there and I’m here to help! I love helping people find new ways to look at concepts and love tackling challenges they have learning them.

I’ve been an educator for a diverse range of ages and subject areas. I studied Middle Childhood Education in undergrad (specifically ELA, Math, and Social Studies) and also received a Masters in Business Administration. I've taught grade levels from elementary, middle school, and even a few college courses. I have worked one-on-one tutoring students for a number of years from SAT and ACT prep, working on nailing basic concepts, and even college level courses, like micro economics, and algebra for calculus.

I consider myself a jack of all trades for subjects, as I have had a lot of experience and for topics I am not familiar with I am generally able to pick up quickly.

I have worked at the college level as an access coordinator with students who have a variety of disabilities so I am familiar with all types of learning challenges as well.

I want to do my best to help you reach your goals, get core concepts down, and maybe even have fun along the way!

Approved Subjects

Acting

Acting

I am currently part of an internationally touring comedy group called Scriptless in Seattle. I received a minor in Theatre Performance in undergrad and have appeared in a variety of roles on stage. I have lead workshops around the country and have directed a few shows as well (both scripted and unscripted shows). My speciality is improvised comedy.
American History

American History

I studied and was certified to teach History in undergrad. I took a number of American History courses both in high school and college and still study the topic today. I like trying to make history more exciting and love to see the connections from the past and how they interact with today.
Elementary Math

Elementary Math

I studied to be a Middle School Teacher and specialized in elementary math. I took a number of math courses geared towards elementary math topics and how to teach them. I also tutored the subject in college for 2 semesters.
English

English

I studied ELA education in undergrad and took a variety of English courses. I enjoy grammar and language arts (taking AP Lit in high school). I also worked as an English teacher as well as a writer/editor in my last job.
Geography

Geography

One of my teaching concentrations in undergrad was Social Studies so Geography is a topic that I have studied many times. History is also closely linked to Geography which is another one of my specialties.
Microsoft Word

Microsoft Word

I took a few business classes in high school, undergrad, and in my Master's program each of them highlighting Microsoft Word. I used the program daily in my previous role and still use it very frequently now. For topics I am unfamiliar with, I am happy to research and provide step-by-step instructions to make your writing easier.
Prealgebra

Prealgebra

Mathematics was my favorite subject in high school and college and was my speciality when I taught on the college campus. I taught all areas of Algebra from pre-Algebra to Algebra for Calculus. I was certified to teach mathematics in 4-9th grade. I love breaking math down into easier to understand pieces or coming up with a new way for a concept to click.
Social Studies

Social Studies

I studied Middle Childhood Education (specifically Social Studies) in undergrad. I taught a social studies class for half a semester and have substitute taught in many social studies classrooms. I have taken many social studies courses in undergrad as well (Geography, History, Government, Sociology, Psychology, etc.)
Spanish

Spanish

I studied Spanish for all 4 years of high school and took 2 years of Spanish courses in undergrad. I had a Spanish minor at one point and had courses where we had to talk completely in Spanish. While I wouldn't term myself bilingual, I understand Spanish grammar and pronunciation and am good with topics like verb conjugations.
World History

World History

I studied and was certified to teach Social Studies in college. I taught some history courses and still study the subject today. In college I took a number of world history courses as well.
