Zachary H - Asheville, NC 28801 (0.6 mi) - Spanish Tutor - $36.50/hr.
I begin teaching each tutee by first observing their own approach to studying, listening to their explanations and questions about the material, and indentifying their strengths and deficincies with respect to knowledge of the subject. Then I attempt to mold my approach based on these observations, course requirements, and my own personal belief that we are all capable of learning most anything as long as it is presented to us in a way we can understand and that is enjoyable and exciting for the student. Since childhood, my hunger for knowledge has driven me to study and learn about almost as much as I possibly could. My high estimation of learning has often led me to help others to learn whenever I can. Always drawn to math and science, I pursued chemistry in college and received my B.S. from North Carolina State University in Chemistry in 2002. In grade school and high-school I was alw

Naomi U - Asheville, NC 28801 (0.9 mi) - Spanish Tutor - $38.00/hr.
I graduated from Stanford University with two bachelor degrees, BA in English Literature and Creative Writing and BA in Art and Art History. I am extremely competent in reading comprehension, composition, editing for grammar and content, and in constructing critiques of reading material. I am additionally well versed in the Social Sciences, including History, Government, Sociology, Anthropology, and Psychology. I am currently a graduate student in the field of Community Health, Medical Anthropology, and Ethnobotany. I have tutored, mentored, and taught for the past 9 years through non-profits, public charter schools, and outdoor education centers. I am a strong proponent of self-directed learning. The best retention of material and new skills comes when a student finds the subject engaging and is able to relate the subject to their own experiences, passions, and goals. All people l

Melissa B - Asheville, NC 28801 (1.1 mi) - Spanish Tutor - $39.50/hr.
My teaching style is based on the needs of each particular student, and, in cases where ability levels are varied, I find ways to use the strengths of each student to help the group as a whole. In my experience as a tutor, I have found that children often just need extra attention to thrive. Some of my most difficult cases, as a result, have become the most rewarding. My focus is on the natural abilities and creativity of each individual child and on fostering those abilities through well-organized and thoughtful instruction. The ability to learn and thrive is innate in everyone; it is the teacher's task to bring those qualities to the forefront. As a participant in a bilingual tutoring project, I thrived in connecting with my students and tailoring the lesson plan to their specific needs. I accompanied my students in the classroom, translated assignments from English to Spanish, and pro

Shelly G - Asheville, NC 28805 (1.5 mi) - Spanish Tutor - $34.00/hr.
Each child learns in a different way. I enjoy finding what works for each child. In the current state of education, children often find themselves burdened with an exorbitant amount of work that seems endless and impossible to conquer, and parents often find their children stressed and frustrated by a lack of comprehension. Learning should be an adventure into a previously unknown world, not a job. I strive to make that possible for each and every child. As a fellow during my graduate work at Indiana University, I taught undergraduate courses focused on helping students improve their written and oral communication skills. While pursuing a double major during my undergraduate years at the University of Notre Dame, I served as a university tutor, helping students in chemistry, communications, English and Spanish. Additionally, I have served as a volunteer for Head Start, a national governm

Kyle K - Asheville, NC 28806 (1.7 mi) - Spanish Tutor - $39.00/hr.
Through the experience of pursuing my degree at Boston University, I was exposed to many different styles of learning and teaching due to my interdisciplinary concentration in Latin American Studies. After spending two months in Peru on a study abroad program, I utilized my Spanish language minor by volunteering as an ESL teacher of adults at the Brazilian Workers Center in East Boston, MA. My college experience culminated in a personal research project where I was personally both class and teacher, facilitating an understanding of how I best learn. During my studies I participated in approximately one year of peer tutoring organized through the dorm I lived in, allowing me to see how others learn. The diversity of my studies provides me with the ability to tutor in many liberal arts subjects including History, Government, and English at the higher levels, though I also scored high in ma

Richard L - Asheville, NC 28806 (1.7 mi) - Spanish Tutor - $37.50/hr.
I'm most interested in tutoring on the high-school or college level, but I do have experience teaching young children as well. I believe that the biggest impediment to learning a subject is anxiety, often from a bad classroom experience, so my approach focuses on beginning at the learner's level and making sure to check every concept before moving on to the next one. This works. I offer a patient, learner-focused teaching style that is able to use a broad variety of examples and experience from everyday life and my experience to illustrate points. I'm practiced in complementing a primary teacher's style to fill in gaps and get results. I have an enthusiasm for language that, I am told, is infectious. I have Bachelor's Degrees in English & Spanish, a Master's Degree in English, and am rated 'advanced low' on the Arabic Oral Proficiency exam. My Spanish training includes 42 college l

Catherine S - Asheville, NC 28806 (1.8 mi) - Spanish Tutor - $38.00/hr.
I believe in connecting the learner with the content in order to make the whole process real and relevant, not just isolated pockets of fact-finding. I do this by creating a non-judgmental, non-threatening learning relationship in an environment where students feel comfortable expressing themselves. I determine what kind of obstacles a student may be constructing that can undermine his/her ability to be successful in the classroom. I pride myself in being able to help students discover their own best methods for overcoming roadblocks to learning while understanding how to think about how their own thinking! Students enthusiastically and thankfully find that this process serves them for the rest of their educational careers! I have taught both middle school and high school students, and I have extensive experience understanding how adolescents learn. I'm skilled at determining why a stude

Timothy A - Asheville, NC 28803 (2.2 mi) - Spanish Tutor - $32.00/hr.
I've devoted my life to working with youth. My teaching style is to make the material as interactive as possible. Not all students learn in the same fashion. As a teacher my job is to use a method that best suits each individual student. My style is patient and easy going while making learning fun. I strive to provide the tools and techniques to allow each student to work toward their potential. As we all know from our years in school, there were a small number of teachers that really made a positive impact by how they taught and facilitated the class. I strive to be one of those teachers. I have spent the last 30 years working with children and families in providing education, information and entertainment. I've been a full time teacher, a substitute teacher, and a tutor for children grades K-12. My company creates education product for the family market. I have earned a masters degree,

Elspeth H - Asheville, NC 28806 (2.3 mi) - Spanish Tutor - $35.00/hr.
In order to effectively teach, I feel it is important to recognize and understand each student's metacognitive learning style. Once that is understood the material can be introduced to them in a way that they can perceive. I also feel that it is important to empower students to have the confidence to think for themselves and understand their own ability to make connections about the material. Therefore, when I teach, I think it is important to constantly ask the students questions and direct them towards the answers as opposed to feeding them information that they memorize. Putting meaning behind the information is crucial for effective learning. After graduating from UNC-Chapel Hill, I spent 8 months working at a wilderness therapy program. At this school I taught students life skills in a wilderness setting. After leaving this school, I spent the summer teaching art at a small su

Mary Beth S - asheville, NC 28803 (2.4 mi) - Spanish Tutor - $36.50/hr.
Coming from an academic family with a father who is a Philosophy professor and a mother who studied child developmental psychology, I understand the importance of a quality education. I earned two bachelor degrees, one in Spanish and one in Anthropology. I have linguistic and cultural competence because of many years of traveling. I am an avid reader in Spanish and English. I hope to go back to school to get my PhD in Applied Anthropology. I have written ethnographic research papers as well as various other types of essays and vignettes. When I traveled to Guatemala last summer, I volunteered as an English teacher and taught a class of about 15 teenagers. I also tutored 3 children who were about 11 to 12 years old in English while in Guatemala. Now, I am tutoring a 25 year old mother from El Salvador; we meet every week for 2 hours.

I am very patient and encouraging with a lot of positive feedback. I design my lessons by looking at the specific needs and learning styles of my students with welcomed input from their parents and teachers. Each session is filled with very interactive activities including educational games which I tailor to meet individual needs.
