I have taught for over ten years in NYC and in Connecticut, and I currently sub at Easton High School. My specialty is history, but I have a great deal of experience - depending on level - with science, writing, & English. The most regular complement I've received from students who have trouble is that I explain things in a way they understand. It's perfectly acceptable if a student is frustrated and even angry toward school work. And if you're genuinely interested in improving, I promise...

The most regular complement I've received from students who have trouble is that I explain things in a way they understand.

I have a proven rubric that will identify specific areas for improvement. We'll address those areas with strategies that suit you as a student, and redraft to that point that your work is publishable.
This is my thing. I know the conventional version, lots of theoretical versions, and can help you apply serious analytical reasoning.
I can honestly say that I can help you, regardless of the subject matter. Drilling you again and again won't help, and it's not what I do. More like a trainer, I'll identify your weaknesses and difficulties and address THOSE so that the subject becomes more graspable.
