Martin L - Cedar Rapids, IA 52402 (19 mi) - Economics Tutor - $35.50/hr.
With more than nine years of business experience in both Finance and Operations management and five years as a homemaker raising my four children, I have a very diverse level of experience which I will provide as a tutor. I have developed a complete battery of skills in English, Business, Mathematics and Social Sciences. Currently emerging from several years of medical disability, I have a lot to offer as I begin my return to the workforce. Tutoring is the next step on my journey. I will soon begin my educational pursuit to move to a teaching profession. Effective teaching requires goal-setting and patience on the parts of both the instructor and the student. We are a team! I am simply there to facilitate their education.
Most of what I teach is enhanced by my approach to helping the student learn. I seek to ask them to "teach" me by offering questions to them. This has proven very ef

Michelle M - Cedar Rapids, IA 52403 (19.4 mi) - Economics Tutor - $38.00/hr.
I have always had a strong appreciation for education and learning new things. My educational experience was strengthened when I attended Cornell College, which has a strong liberal arts program. I immediately took an interest in the sciences and pursued a Bachelor's degree in Biology/Pre-medicine. My education was additionally complimented when I immersed myself in several language, mathematic, English, and humanity courses, which gave me a strong diversity in the liberal arts curriculum. Due to the smaller class sizes at Cornell, most of the exams were given in essay form, which strengthened my writing skills immensely. During the course of the last 11 years after graduating, I have tutored students in English, mathematics, and the sciences. It is both amazing and fulfilling for me to utilize my education and communication skills to assist both children and adults in learning to better

Can D - Iowa City, IA 52240 (30.1 mi) - Economics Tutor - $55.50/hr.
I am a firm believer that most students may dislike subjects they may not completely grasp. I focus on foundation skills, real life examples, and making the material relevant for students. Keeping material fresh, entertaining and interactive are vital and key components in winning students over. Once students understand key concepts and foundation skills, I believe it important to keep a challenging and accelerated material and learning environment, to keep the students interested and intellectually satisfied.

Adam E - Iowa City, IA 52446 (31.1 mi) - Economics Tutor - $37.50/hr.
I will find a positive way to teach a student of any age. Although I always say I don't have the tolerance for negativity, I consider myself an expert when it comes to turning it into positive thinking. I also have extensive experience teaching students that are either hesitant or reluctant to put forth effort to learn. In the past I have countered this with positive comebacks and humor, which is usually greeted with a smile. For the last year I have tutored University students in Iowa City for 2 subjects. From 2003-2004 I tutored various subjects at the University while in school to finish my bachelor's degree. In addition, I started my tutoring career in high school through personal and professional references. The subjects I have tutored throughout my career are: Economics, Algebra, Statistics, Computer Science, Financial Accounting, and Cost Accounting. I am currently working

peiwen h - iowa city, IA 52246 (31.1 mi) - Economics Tutor - $36.50/hr.
I believe a teacher should encourage his/her students to discover the subject and ask good questions. Approachability and Authority should be balanced during teaching, thus the teacher would be both trustworthy and approachable. I student would appreciate a teacher who is really prepared and willing to be a good source for the student's curiosity. 2006 Teaching Assistant at China Youth University for Political Sciences

Lindsey M - Davenport, IA 52803 (49 mi) - Economics Tutor - $35.50/hr.
I have worked extremely hard to develop a well rounded educational background. I have earned a BS in Exercise Science, with a minor in Business Administration. I also have completed several elective math and science courses as prerequisites for a Doctorate of Physical Therapy of which I will be starting in the 2009-2010 school year. I have had the privileged of completing countless written assignments, scientific papers, and homework assignments. I have no experience in tutoring however, I enjoy teaching others what I have learned. My experience as a teacher has been gained through my work at Easter Seals, a pediatric physical therapy center, for which I have taught many children skills in life, communicating, and other various skills. I believe that a good teacher student relationship is imperative. Also I think that learning is best done in a stress free environment. I strive to provid

Jonathan W - Rock Island, IL 61201 (50.4 mi) - Economics Tutor - $35.50/hr.
I'm a student at Augustana College whose academic record has ranged from public school to home schooling to community college and and even private education. I've worked as a tutor for over 2 years at Black Hawk College, at the same time obtaining an Associates Degree. Throughout those years I've encountered many special needs students and many bright students, tutoring in subjects ranging from English, Math, Social Studies, to Computer Science. I believe the best way to learn is peer-to-peer learning. As an auto-didact I have the study skills necessary to regurgitate information as taught by the current institutional models. This is an uncreative and highly unnatural way to learn. There's a reason no major discovery was made in a classroom -- true innovation, discovery and learning is an organic process.

Stephanie N - Bettendorf, IA 52722 (50.6 mi) - Economics Tutor - $36.50/hr.
My teaching philosophy is to provide a safe and welcoming learning environment for my students, in which they feel equal and confident as learners. Creating a positive learning environment begins with building a strong rapport with students and coworkers. Another aspect of building a strong classroom community is motivation. As a teacher, my goal is to help student build strong self-efficacy so that they feel inclined to work hard and develop an inner sense of motivation. I use scaffolding in my instruction, so the students are able to watch me demonstrate the skill or strategy, and slowly I turn over more and more responsibilities to the student regarding that skill until he or she is able to do the skill without my assistance. I graduated from the University of Iowa on May 15, 2010 with a BA in Elementary Education and a reading endorsement. Apart from my area of specialization, r

Justin L - Moline, IL 61265 (51.3 mi) - Economics Tutor - $39.50/hr.
At the University of Illinois I decided to follow my passion and study both mathematics and finance, this lead to a degree in Actuarial Science. After working as an Actuary for the better part of 5 years, I decided to come back to school to study Finance and Marketing at Northwestern University's Kellogg School of Management. I have been tutoring students in statistics since I was an undergraduate in college. I enjoy helping students learn the concepts of mathematics/statistics and helping them to understand how to use these concepts in the real world. Math can be quite challenging, but with the right amount of effort, patience, and guidance, anyone can learn. I know this because I've tutored students as young as 12 and adults as old as 30. I enjoy tutoring and helping others to learn how to solve challenging problems.
