Halle J. - Petersburg, VA 23803 (25.2 mi) - Speaking Tutor - $35.00/hr.
I am a recent high school graduate. I graduated in the top fourth of my class. My GPA is a 3.48. My best subject is math. I enjoy helping and working with others to help them succeed. I completed a class in high school named Teach Cadet where I learned the basics about education and the importance of being a versatile teacher. I was able to work with children from head start to elementary level. I also was a member of two organizations at school where I worked with sixth graders about the importance of goals and worked with fourth graders about the importance of team work. I try to adapt to the way the student prefers. I understand that there are various ways people obtain and grasp knowledge.

In Writing...
I generally give my students a mild assessment to see how I can best help them. I also conduct all of my own lesson planning. However, I am certainly accustomed to helping students with current academic work they may already have from their current classes.
The first thing that I typically help students do is get pass the creativity block (if needed). Even I, like all writers have suffered from the inability to start my essay because I didn't know what to write about or how to collect ideas for my topic. So the first thing I do for my student writers is help them employ a couple brainstorming techniques to get their ideas going.
The second thing I show my writers is what I call the Order of an Essay. This involves arranging and writing the ideas in the order that constructs a well-written essay. This is usually the biggest thing that most student writers strug

Lester B - Powhatan, VA 23139 (14.2 mi) - Speaking Tutor - $39.00/hr.
For just over a decade I have been involved in some form of peer education or mentoring. As a senior in high school, I tutored students in mathematics and science. As an ACS Certified Chemist, I have been exposed to upper level mathematics, chemistry and physics, but am still required to use writings skills in preparing various reports and papers. The opportunity to be a Teaching Assistant in upper-level chemistry and mathematics was rewarding and reinforcing at the same time. I have served in a variety of leadership roles, both academic and extra-curricular, that have shaped the person I am today. The chance to tutor peers in high school was the initial spark towards considering education as a career. During my undergraduate studies the desire has grown as I was given the opportunity in the role of Teaching Assistant. I found from those experiences that I have an ability to gauge a stud

Audrey V - Midlothian, VA 23114 (17.3 mi) - Speaking Tutor - $41.00/hr.
My teaching style embraces differences among learners to understand why they respond the way they do. As an instructor, I want to understand how members/groups learn and maintain the balance in the classroom. I provide learning through a variety of ways such as powerpoint presentations, lectures to supplement the weekly readings, provide additional resources to support the material. The most important benefit that I can offer my students is to be accessible to them at all times. Assessments would reflect the learning objectives through problem-solving, open discussions, group work, role play and journal writing. As the only member of my family to achieve a Master's degree, I am committed to lifelong learning. I have earned an Associate's degree in Business Management, Bachelor of Science degree in Economics, and a MBA in Business Administration. Currently I am finishing up coursewo

Anna K - Richmond, VA 23238 (22.2 mi) - Speaking Tutor - $39.00/hr.
My teaching style varies depending on the needs of each student. Because students learn in different ways, I feel it is important to start with a basic teaching method and evolve from there for each individual child and his or her level of learning. I feel that motivation goes a long way and that students should feel rewarded for any level of progress they accomplish. My experience includes two years of full time teaching at the PreK level. I also have experience working with grade level students through practicums, student teaching, and substitute teaching. I have assisted teachers with middle school students during a summer technical program as well. I currently hold a M.S. in Education specializing at the Elementary grade levels. I also have a B.F.A. in Photography with a minor in Journalism.

Ann W - Richmond, VA 23229 (23.1 mi) - Speaking Tutor - $56.00/hr.
My father was my first math mentor. He graduated from West Point - and tutored his roommate John Saxon. John developed the Saxon method. The next influencer was Investigations - the math program used at West School in New Canaan, CT where I did my student teaching. That program taught me to do "break apart" math - which teaches math independence. I have done more substitute teaching at all grade levels - and often play "Mental Math" with white boards -which the kids love. They work in teams and get the adrenaline rush of beating the clock and the teacher. This methodology - has worked really well for AD&D kids. Teach it. Repeat it. Practice It. Discuss it. What went right? WHat went wrong? What did they learn. Egg Cartons and White boards are my favorite manipulatives. Often mistakes are the best teachers.

I was a tutor for the School of Business and Economics in Elizabeth City where I earned by BS in Business in 2003. I tutored beginning through Intermediate accounting, Principles of Marketing and other business subjects from 2000-2003. I was a formal tutor for one year and a student tutor for 2 years. I currently tutor family members, friends and church members in all basic elementary through college subjects. (ex.

I feel comfortable and I am qualified to tutor through Spanish II. As a tutor, I review previous test, quizzes and work with the student to see where the "disconnect" lies. Most students are very capable, they just need someone to explain the material in a way they understand. Some students are visiual learners, other

Melissa B - Henrico, VA 23294 (25.8 mi) - Speaking Tutor - $43.00/hr.
I love teaching all ages, but have experience working with college freshman. I believe that these students are at an age where they need to realize their dreams and need help to gain confidence within themselves. My strong point is within Math, but also comprehension. Written words and puzzles are not always easily understood. Some people need facts to help them learn or examples. I have worked with college students in the past, working with comprehensive learning and mathematics. I learned that each student understands in their own personal way; some learn by seeing something concrete and for others it is working through the steps in the problem that helps them understand. I have also had the experience of teaching a freshman seminar class where the focus was finding the students strong point or drive and having them research their major or likes to find what job fields might fit them

Virginia B - Richmond, VA 23227 (27.6 mi) - Speaking Tutor - $43.50/hr.
My teaching experience includes: underwriting skills enhancement for professional insurance agents; tutoring for Sylvan of kindergarten-age students through high school seniors; and introducing the building blocks of reading skills and math skills to elementary age children.
Learning can be interesting, fun, challenging and enriching. I find I can assist students by using my sense of humor; adapting to a student’s most effective way to learn (auditory, visual, contextual, etc.); and using my work experiences to help students make real world connections to abstract learning. I love seeing that flash in a student’s eyes because of something I did or said that allowed them to grasp the material we are studying. I am certified to teach students of kindergarten age through the 6th grade. I taught all subjects including math, reading, history, science, social studies, etc. This certif

Joseph L - Port St. Lucie, FL 34952 (28.2 mi) - Speaking Tutor - $39.50/hr.
We do not all learn to speak, read and write languages in the same way. Some of us learn by mostly hearing or saying; some of us learn by mostly seeing and looking; and some of us learn by mostly doing, using touch and moving parts of our bodies or things. I use all three ways to learn when helping others improve their English. I use hearing, seeing and doing. I check what students learn in one way with the other two ways of learning. There is a name for this kind of teaching. It is called the neuro-linguistic approach to teaching English. For the last seven years, I have taught and tutored English to adults who speak other languages. In the last two years, I have added tutoring students in grades 3-12. While teaching English as a Second Language at a local college, I was a lead lab instructor for two years. Students work with me on pronunciation, reading, writing and grammar. They also
