James Colligan
If you've developed an acute hatred of math homework, or you're stressing about a big exam coming up, give me a call! I have four years of experience tutoring middle and high school students in all levels of Math, Spanish, English, and Psychology, as well as the SAT and ACT. I have several glowing letters of reference from parents and teachers who can testify to my capabilities. I'm also a substitute teacher for several school districts in Yolo County. I graduated with honors in 2008, with a BA in Psychology. I intend eventually to be a high school teacher and an outdoor educator during the summers, leading high school students on backpacking trips.
I'm friendly and approachable, and I'm very flexible regarding schedule and location. I also offer my first session free. I charge $30/hour.
You can reach me at (831)-239-8653, or email me at jcolliga(at)gmail(dot)com.
