I am passionate about teaching. In my career I have taught many students at all levels including middle school, high school , college and graduate level students . More recently , I’ve noticed the increasing need for better home schooling and the important role focused tutoring plays in the development of learning skills that build a strong foundation for lifelong learning . I believe the first and foremost duty of a teacher is to encourage the curious mind and allow for a judgement free mental playground where they feel free to explore and learn the skills to approach any subject or topic with confidence and curiosity and not be held bac

Hello, My name is Toby-Ellen Finley, and I recently retired after 34 years of teaching in Minneapolis Public Schools—31 of those years at the same school. I’ve primarily taught third and fifth grade, with the last 11 years focused on fifth graders. Reading and writing are my passion. I help students become confident, independent readers and expressive, organized writers. My experience in an International Baccalaureate (IB) school also allows me to bring a global perspective to literacy instruction. I’d be an exceptional tutor because of my deep knowledge, dedication, and ability to connect with students. I’m flexible, patient, encouraging,

I teach and tutor Mandarin Chinese language and English. English is my native language. My BA from the U of MN is Asian Languages & Literatures, focused on Chinese language & culture, with a 2nd major in Global Studies. After studying Chinese at the U here, I went thru the U to study in China. I subsequentlyl spent near 20 years in Asia, mainly in Mandarin speaking areas. I studied at universities in both China and Taiwan - in Taiwan I studied 4 years of Classical Chinese language, and received scholarship for one year while there. I taught English all the time I was in Asia, and have taught English in other areas upon Earth. I currently tea...

As an almost high school graduate, I can help students K-8. I specialize in math and English but could possibly be open to other needs. I believe that students won’t learn without connection so I will take my time to get to know them in order to help them connect things they learn in school to things they do in their outside life. I am good at adapting so I will go as slow as I need to in order to help the student learn. I also believe in prioritizing goals so we don’t walk into things without a purpose.

I am a retired teacher with over 20 years of teaching experience in language arts and social sciences. I taught middle school students and high school students. I love the subjects I taught and looked forward to teaching every day. I connected with my students by learning about their interests and learning styles. I used that information to tailor my lessons to those interests and learning styles. One of the most rewarding parts of teaching is to experience the moment when a lightbulb goes off in the student’s head and what was not understood or confusing becomes clear. I really work hard to get students to experience those moments in my t
