John S. - Redfield, AR 72132 (51.8 mi) - Dyslexia Tutor - $52.50/hr.
I have worked with children for over 15 years in all areas of academic work, at all levels of proficiency. My students are successful in not only their academic work, but also in life through confidence building into the students. I enjoy the challenge of finding the path to achievement for individual students and have had great success in transforming the attitudes toward education for many students through after-school programs and initiatives I have pioneered.

Brandon M - Little Rock, AR 72202 (34.1 mi) - Dyslexia Tutor - $38.50/hr.

My philosophy of education is a student centered one. I strongly relate to the adage of serving as the “guide on the side” rather than the “sage on the stage.” I believe in focusing on individual needs, involving and motivating the students in the process of their learning. Their individual differences need to be recognized, respected, and even celebrated. I believe that all students have strengths, and that it is the goal of the teacher to assist them to identify and build upon these. To the world, a teacher might be just one person, but to one person a teacher just might be the world. After earning a Bachelor’s Degree in English, I married and worked at support jobs while helping to raise our two children. Upon finding myself a single parent, I decided to return to school and pursue my passion for learning and working with children by obtaining my Masters in Special Education. I have s
