Elin E - Duluth, MN 55812 (45.9 mi) - Drawing Tutor - $35.00/hr.
I have taken more than the amount of credits I need to graduate with a BA in mathematics from Luther College. I have minors in physics and chemistry. I have always enjoyed math. I have assisted an elementary school teacher in tutoring mathematics. I have assisted middle and high school aged children in learning mathematics when they have not attended class or have fallen behind. When tutoring I usually ask prompting questions to assist the person in working through a problem. By building off of the skills the student already has it helps them better understand the process. If a student is learning new material or does not understand the way something was explained I will try to come up with an alternative method. I will go through an example with them step by step ensuring that they understand what happens along the way. I try to relate problems to real life so that they will rem

Kelsey H - Duluth, MN 55806 (47.4 mi) - Drawing Tutor - $33.50/hr.
I am currently a medical student at the University of Minnesota Medical School Duluth. Before I started medical school I worked as a tutor for six years with two teenage boys with autism. Under the six years of my tutoring, both of these "disabled" kids were completely mainstreamed and even taking some AP and challenge classes. I believe that any kid can learn if they are taught in a way that is fun and structured. I tutored these kids in Math, Science, Social Studies and English. I also spent a semester as a Teaching Assistant in an upper level Philosophy course during my undergrad. Most of my TA tutoring was helping college students write papers. I tend to teach things in a visual way. Drawing pictures, diagrams and using visual aides are the best ways I have witnessed to teach kids. I also think a structured reward system is HUGE in motivating kids to succeed. You need to find out wha

Beverly S - Duluth, MN 55811 (48 mi) - Drawing Tutor - $33.50/hr.
My approach to teaching involves finding the best learning venue for each individual student. I don't believe in 'fitting' the student to the method, rather finding the method that works for each individual. I use phonetics when that is the simplest method, the challenge of games/competition when that is what clicks for my student. I have even used graphics to create a learning environment for students who lack imagination! The goose-bumps I get when I see the 'lightbulb' of recognition turn on in a student's eyes remains my reason for wanting to share the pursuit of knowledge with everyone! I understand and use the proven academic methods for teaching, but am still open for the venue that works. After getting my degree in Printing/Desktop Publishing/Graphic Design, I ran my own successful business for 11 years. Tutoring was my link to the creative challenge of showing people a way to en

Pamela S - Superior, WI 54880 (49.6 mi) - Drawing Tutor - $36.50/hr.
From childhood, "playing" school was a passion! Afforded an
excellent education by teachers, mentors, spiritual guides and
community leaders - I'm thrilled to meet today's promising learners
with the same measure of affirmation. Every child is talented and
gifted. The teacher's role is to design a context for success
within which problems are resolved, obstacles dismantled,
weaknesses strengthened and doors opened for continued enrichment. In my Senior Honors study, I worked with a group of special needs children. I matched nontraditional learning methods to identify and develop talents and interests.
I have taught music privately, for music stores, and taught and assisted with music in public and parochial schools.
My teaching Internship was at Robbinsdale High School in art and
commercial design.
I served as Teaching Assistant to the Dean of Students while
earning my Mast
