Kelly L. - Des Moines, IA 50312 (40.2 mi) - Spelling Tutor - $22.50/hr.
School has been the most important structure in my life since I was a kid. My parents taught me that school comes first above anything else. I took their statement very seriously. I earned a 3.9 GPA at my university with Summa Cum Laude honors. I was a dedicated student who wants to help others succeed in school. I am a babysitter, which comes hand in hand with tutoring. I often help the kids with homework when I'm babysitting. I help my old high school speech and debate team. I must be able to constructively criticize the students but make speech and debate fun and challenging. I work well with kids, from elementary school to high school. I will reiterate whatever the student is struggling with until they really understand. I am very patient and fun!

Aaron S - Indianola, IA 50125 (35.5 mi) - Spelling Tutor - $51.50/hr.
I believe education is very important to children, both now and in the future. I encourage students to become lifelong learners, constantly seeking to gain knowledge and skills. I love to help children learn, and I strive to make learning enjoyable for all students. As I teach, I try to tie the content into a student's interest, thus getting them excited about learning. My teaching is very individualized toward each child. I use a variety of teaching styles to meet the needs of different students. This places each student in the best possible situation to succeed. I work to form relationships based on respect and caring with all students. I believe teachers have a unique opportunity to greatly impact students' lives. As a student I have always been very ambitious and excited to learn. I graduated from high school in the top 5 of my class and graduated from college with honors. I

Jesse M - Waukee, IA 50263 (37.8 mi) - Spelling Tutor - $37.00/hr.
I enjoy teaching with individuals of all ages. I believe that every person should learn something new everyday and to succeed in doing this all that is needed is a common link. My patience and determination show to my students that I am there to help them. Coupling this with a view at the big picture helps a teacher better understand which ways a student learns. Since all students do not learn in the same manner it is pertinent to establish a game plan in the first meeting and help them work through any difficulties that they may learning the subject manner. Once your teaching style is on the same page as their learning style, everything should work out in the end. Not only are you a tutor but you should also be a role model. As an Iowa State graduate, I was very driven to not only achieve a great education but to actually learn the material set forth by my professors. At Iowa Stat

Kathryn W - Clive, IA 50325 (38 mi) - Spelling Tutor - $34.00/hr.
I have always had a passion for literacy and working with children. After graduating summa cum laude with a B.A. in English, I began working at an educational publishing company as an editor to help create textbooks for students. In 2008 I returned to school to get my M.Ed in Curriculum and Instruction for Children's Literature, which was a mixture of literature and education (theory, psychology, curriculum) classes. The last 3 years I have worked as a volunteer with the Everybody Wins! literacy program and have volunteered weekly with high school students at my church. My tutoring strength is obviously reading and English language arts (grammar, composition), as my education, work experience, and tutoring experience are all in that area. I've always loved interacting and working with children (through nannying, volunteering, and tutoring) but after finishing my master's degree I believe

Burton C - Des Moines, IA 50321 (39.3 mi) - Spelling Tutor - $36.50/hr.
Since graduating from college, I have been instructing professionals and employees in safety behavior and safety management processes. I have learned extensive grammatical skills in the military, during my assignment as an inspector on the Inspector General (IG) team. I performed proof reading and report writing for two years. My parents were elementary and algebra teachers. There were numerous occasions I assisted them with correcting tests during my high school years. My best accomplishments have been tutoring my four children in their subjects, primarily math, over the last five years. I have always been successful at teaching children to understand and believe that they can learn anything from hitting a baseball to doing algebra. Each child learns differently, as I have learned from my own children. Starting slowly and building on the fundamentals will open the child's eyes and

Daniel D - West Des Moines, IA 50265 (39.7 mi) - Spelling Tutor - $34.50/hr.
I really enjoy getting people of all ages to learn. My day job is with Easter Seals where I work with all ages and disabilities. With both Easter Seals and tutoring, I found that it requires a wide variety of approaches to get my clients to learn. I have learned a lot of patience and creativity in this time. I have been constantly surprised and pleased when my students and I are able to achieve new heights in life-skills and the classroom. At Amherst College, we were encouraged to pursue a wide variety of subjects in addition to our major. I studied math for several years, some Biology, Latin and Greek. I had a semester of graduate school at Iowa in Classics. At Tulane, I studied advanced statistics as well as marketing. I had two years of Spanish at DMACC. I also studied Bosnian and German at DMPS Continuing Education. For all standardized tests, I always scored in the top 1% including

Ellen F - Des Moines, IA 50322-1650 (41.1 mi) - Spelling Tutor - $34.50/hr.
I am a patient teacher who strives to identify goals and help learners achieve those goals. People learn in different ways, and I have background experience in determining what works best and applying those methods. A teacher's positive, encouraging attitude is key to learning success. I taught English at the secondary level for 17 years (2 years - jr high, 15 years - high school) in Iowa (12 years), Texas (4 years), and Ohio (2 years). I taught all English curriculum courses over time, with a focus on composition, speech communication, American & British Literature, and World Literature. In addition I directed plays and coached students for speech contests.

Dennis S - Urbandale, IA 50322 (41.8 mi) - Spelling Tutor - $54.50/hr.
I have an extensive background in the mass communications field. My formal education includes a bachelor's degree in journalism and a master's degeee in mass communications, both from Drake University in Des Moines. Professionally, I have written for daily newspapers and for the public relations and marketing efforts of major Iowa corporations. I am patient, easy going and considerate. I understand that students learn in different ways, so I try to adapt my style accordingly. For example, perhaps one student learns best from oral instruction, while another prefers hands-on experience. My goal is to shape my teaching approach to best fit the needs of the student.
