Stephanie D - North Waterboro, ME 04061 (8.5 mi) - Grammar Tutor - $39.00/hr.
I believe that learning is ongoing throughout life, and that we all differ in our learning styles. I like to present a topic so that it is fun, usually with tactile work using math manipulatives, or flash cards, props, and games that teach conceptual thinking skills, and methods of learning using visuals, as well as auditory cues. I have been educating people since 1987. I began in music education, which I taught successfully for 9 years, and also taught piano lessons. I then worked in special education for 1 year as an educational technician, where I tutored math, reading, and students with severe disabilities. I continued on a transitional certificate teaching elementary grades two and four, and most recently have taught post-secondary medical assisting students at a post secondary institution as well as teaching night courses in adult education in medical terminology and medical t

Louis S - Saco, ME 04072 (8.9 mi) - Grammar Tutor - $38.00/hr.
I have 12 years of full time high school English teaching experience. Beyond that, I taught theatre at the college level for four years and worked as a teaching artist in New York City for four more. I earned my Master of Fine Arts in Theatre from Florida Atlantic University, graduating with highest honors. My Bachelor of Science in English/Speech/Theatre helped me to establish a career in education that is characterized by a driving passion for excellence and a creative learning technique that is second to none. My teaching style adapts to the needs of each individual student. I am very specific in terms of direction, thorough when it comes to facts and details, challenging to promote excellence and fair in evaluation. I encourage discussion and gear specific material to meet an individuals current level of ability while allowing them to reach for their highest goal. Learning can also b

Colleen R - Scarborough, ME 04074 (10.4 mi) - Grammar Tutor - $38.00/hr.
Teaching is a facilitating process. I believe it is my job to aide the student in developing a more solid understanding of the coursework in front of them. This may involve explaining the same concept to the child in a variety of ways to help them understand. The child may also just require a patient instructor who is willing to keep practicing until they have reached the mastery stage of learning.
Whatever the case may be, a high level of patience, understanding and gentle persistence is necessary in order for the child to feel as though they are making progress and not get discouraged. I have two years of experience teaching adults in college-level and public adult education settings. Additionally, I have about 3 years of experience working with children from infancy to adolescence and was a lead after-school teacher.

Andrew F - Arundel, ME 04046 (11.6 mi) - Grammar Tutor - $32.00/hr.
I've always enjoyed helping someone else. There is a certain satisfaction after seeing the look on their face of appreciation. I believe that one on one assistance is very helpful for students who are struggling because sometimes they are afriad to raise questions in the classroom, in fear of only them having trouble. As a recent graduate from Salem State College, I have earned my BA degree in English, with a minor in History. Writing and reading is something I am very passionate about. I have learned different forms of writing, such as analytical, persuassive, reading responses, creative, and so on. With that experience, I have learned grammatical rules for writing that was very important to my success. I have never tutored, but I feel that with my knowledge or writing and reading can be useful to someone who is having difficulties in that area. I work very well one on one and be

Jaime P - Portland, ME 04103 (13 mi) - Grammar Tutor - $38.00/hr.
My teaching career began at Lyndon State College in Vermont. During my time at Lyndon, I was able to participate in many internships. Lyndon put me into the school systems/districts as early as my sophomore year. While obtaining my education degree, I also became very interested in psychology due to the nature of some of my students. Along with Education, I also obtained a Liberal Studies degree with a concentration in Psychology. I graduated Lyndon with the "Most Outstanding Senior" Award in the Education department. After graduation I received a job teaching sixth grade. I love learning and so while teaching I enrolled at the University of New England to work towards my Masters degree in Education. After 2 years I received my degree and also obtained a job teaching 4th grade in Windham, which is where I am currently teaching 5th grade.

Christopher C - Portland, ME 04101 (13.7 mi) - Grammar Tutor - $36.00/hr.
Teaching is both a skill and a passion that runs in my family. Both my mother and my brother are experienced teachers in English grammar and literature, while my father is a respected lawyer.
My style is easy going and helpful. I make sure that if a student is not understanding something one way, I take a different approach to that particular subject until the student really and truly understands. I believe that every student has the potential to excel when they find the motivation and joy in learning. I'm there to help them find that joy. I am a Cum Laude graduate of Marist College with a degree in Communications. I am a television production professional with a background in writing and English. I speak to corporate and educational institutions on a regular basis on subjects ranging from journalism to communications. My grammatical skills have been reinforced by a family of well ed

Robert D - Standish, ME 04084 (14.2 mi) - Grammar Tutor - $37.50/hr.
I love helping others learn and reach their personal goals. My greatest satisfaction is the success of my students. I am an easygoing person and sensitive to my students’ needs, concerns and interests. While practice makes perfect, I help students use the best methods to learn more easily for their continued lifelong success. I teach students but in doing so I learn about them individually so that each experience is adjusted to the particular student. I am a creative thinker and continually work to improve myself and offer more to my students. Education never ends for me and I enjoy helping others continue with their own progress. Working smart and using the best study skills makes learning easier and more fun. I worked with the US Department of Education for over 30 years investigating civil rights complaints from kindergarten to graduate school. I know how education works and how to he

Allison T - Portland, ME 04101 (14.9 mi) - Grammar Tutor - $38.50/hr.
Improving the lives of children has always been a passion of mine. While my academic background has had a focus, primarily, in the social work realm, my overall philosophy for working with youth emphasizes patience and education. I have sought opportunities working with both young children and adolescents. My interest began when I tutored elementary age children during my high school career. Since then, my experiences range from being a school social worker, to teaching anger management group therapy to adolescents, to encouraging education among the youth in my community. My academic interests lie across all subjects, but I have always had a particular fondness for mathematics. I believe that education is the most efficient way to combat any issue. I, therefore, feel that it is essential for youth to find success throughout their academic journey. I approach work with youth from

Danielle C - Lebanon, ME 04027 (21.8 mi) - Grammar Tutor - $36.50/hr.
I enjoy teaching and use a variety of different methods. I incorporate different activities into each lesson to reinforce what we have learned. With my younger students I also incorporated a lot of music into the class that helped them with their verb conjugations, pronouns, etc.
To keep the students' attention I am always keeping them moving, whether it be with an activity or just simply writing phrases on the board. I encourage them to be speaking in French constantly throughout the class. I have been teaching at the Community College. I have students that range in age from 17 years old to 55 years old. I am enjoying teaching very much and would like to add to the teaching I do. I also taught for one year at the Tri City Christian Academy in Somersworth, NH. In that class I had students ranging in age from 11 years old to 18 years old.

I enjoy learning and helping others learn as well. My way of teaching is very straight forward because I like to work with students who want to learn. We all can learn if we want to. I am very understanding, hard working, patient, and a true helper. I am very committed to my students. I want to help students to be the best they can be at what they working on it. I hope to make a difference in their lives and the community. I grew up with a teacher in the Dominican Republic. When my Mother needed a tutor, I was the one to help. I tutored children in the 3rd grade for a year. I also helped family member and friends with homework and exams. Now I have a degree in Accounting and a certificate in Billing and Coding and lots of experience in both areas.

Steven P - Milton, NH 03851 (24.1 mi) - Grammar Tutor - $37.00/hr.
The Psychology Ph.D. program at UNH has the goal of producing educators, and accordingly includes a teaching practicum consisting of two semesters of seminars in educational methods, plus 4 semesters of critically reviewed, undergraduate college teaching. I taught 2 semesters of Introductory Psychology and 2 advanced courses.
At the time, undergraduates were notably lacking in writing and composition skills, and most instructors found themselves tutoring these skills on an individual basis, simply because the students needed it.
I have a good deal of actual writing experience, primarily of scientific papers and reports, grant proposals, technical documentation, and instructional and marketing materials. My teaching style evolved to be well-structured but informal and entertaining. I am a comfortable and natural speaker and have had little trouble engaging the majority of stude

Virginia L - MIlton, NH 03851 (24.1 mi) - Grammar Tutor - $38.00/hr.
The hallmark of my teaching at Colby was my availability to students who needed academic help. I offered individual assistance to students during pre-arranged hours or when they simply dropped by my office. I found this type of contact with students to be particularly rewarding. My starting assumption is that any student can master any subject given sufficiently clear explanations and enough time to absorb the material. It is crucial to first find out what the student knows and what the points of confusion are. In the process, I encourage students to verbalize both their knowledge and their questions. Thus, tutoring is the opposite of lecturing and it lets students take charge of and set the pace of their own learning. I taught undergraduate Physics for 9 years at Colby College, a liberal arts college in Waterville, Maine. I emphasized both conceptual understanding and problem solving. S
