Meghan C. - Worcester, MA 01607 (47.1 mi) - Poetry Tutor - $32.50/hr.
I have struggled with the areas I am not proficient in, so I understand what it is to be frustrated and confused. My teaching style is presenting various approaches to the same idea, in hopes that at least one will click, and better yet, each approach with solidify an idea or concept that much more. Being an undergraduate at WPI and haven taken several Advanced Placement classes in areas outside of math and science, I consider myself a very well rounded student. I was also strongly considered for a MASH program here at the University, or "Math and Science Help", as a Section Leader/Tutor. Going through a lower-middle class urban high school, I was known as that "smart kid" and would often led study groups outside of class to prepare for tests.

As a person who truly values learning, I have continuously engaged in being both a student and a teacher in academically rigorous studies.

I hold a Bachelor’s degree in English with a minor in History, a Master’s degree in Education, a Certificate in College Counseling, and valid teaching credentials in both Massachusetts and California.

Robyn C - Townshend, VT 05353 (22 mi) - Poetry Tutor - $37.50/hr.
Because I have had to meet the needs of so many different students in so many different environments, I am flexible with teaching methods. A lack of resources overseas drove me to be creative and exercise methods of experiential learning: hands-on and engaged learning.
I believe in creating a safe and comfortable learning environment for students, with some room for fun. I acknowledge that every student possesses a different learning style and I strive to compliment that, especially while tutoring. I maintain high expectations and expect considerable progress.
My hope is that armed with an education, youth will be incorporated into more decision making around the world. I graduated with honors from a formal university, where I tutored fellow classmates; however, I gained most of my tutoring and teaching experience overseas, in a universal classroom. I have taught youth and adults

Shelley V - Ware, MA 01082 (30.5 mi) - Poetry Tutor - $55.50/hr.
I enjoy getting the student excited about what they are learning by showing them the practical and useful side of what they are being taught. I believe that when learning is fun and students enjoy what they are learning they will do better. I try to use a hands on approach so that the student learns by doing. I provide lots of examples and change my teaching methods according to each students needs. As a tutor at Springfield Technical Community College, students would specifically request my services as they felt my teaching methods were easy to understand. I have over 15 years experience in the Accounting field as well as have owned several successful businesses in the IT industry of which I functioned in the daily business operations and all financial accounting duties. I also homeschooled my children from pre-school up to grade five, as well as taught Sunday school at church for

Tiffany M - Bennington, VT 05201 (30.7 mi) - Poetry Tutor - $36.00/hr.
As A recent graduate from a Liberal Arts School, I found it easy to connect with teaching as my calling. I have always driven for high levels of excellence in and outside the classroom and work force. Having an English and Philosphy background, I find it easy to critically think and annotate extensively works of literature. And from that I find that my skills are up to par due to writing research papers and annotating other people's work. My experiance as a student teacher at a private school in rural VT, allowed me to expand the pupils' minds to outside their comfort zone in order to learn about the world we live and the connection it has to literature. Teaching is not for everyone, but I knew it was for me when I started student teaching and felt the adrenaline rush of 25 eyes staring up at me for guidance. I feel the need to spread as much knowledge as possible to the up and coming ge

Ellen L - Bondville, VT 05340 (35.1 mi) - Poetry Tutor - $36.50/hr.
I base my teaching on the pholosophy of Eli Siegal: "Aesthetic Realism". It states that "All beauty is a making one of opposites, and a making one of opposites is what we are going after in ourselves" Thus, I relate the subject matter in hand to students' personal lives. For example, if we are learning Le Chartelier's Princlple, which concerns the response of a chemical reaction to stress, I have my students discuss the types of stress they experience, and their responses. We compare this to the beautifully precise and appropriate reaction in Chemistry, where the response is never inapproriate, insufficent or in excess. This method has also taught me that I have much to learn from my students and their life experiences. . I have taught for over 25 years in settings as varied as inner city schools in NYC to a small public school in Arlington Vermont, and an elite private school at Str

Michelle S - Fitchburg, MA 01420 (36.4 mi) - Poetry Tutor - $47.50/hr.
My tutoring experience consists of friends over the years, however it has always been something I was very good at. I decided to make a career change after working at Fidelity Investments for five years now to something I have a passion for, teaching children. I passed the MTEL exams and am working towards my license. I'm very excited to begin this journey and would be extremely appreciative for an opportunity to share my knowledge and experience. I believe my MBA in Business, BA in Management, minor in Leadership as well as my HR Cert has provided me with the level of education needed to tutor. Every subject I can tutor: Economics, Finance, Math and English, I received honors in College for as well as completed MBA coursework in the subjects. I am a very well organized person who can multitask and prioritize extremely well, however to me this important but yet secondary aspect of t

Jillien G - Manchester Center, VT 05255 (36.9 mi) - Poetry Tutor - $53.00/hr.
As a graduate of Bard College, where I earned a degree in English literature, I have acquired an excellent background in the discipline of writing and composition. I have built upon this experience by earning two Master's degrees, one in Special Education and the other in Library Science. I enjoy and excel in the field of research as evidenced by my career choices, for example, Lead Librarian for an IBM Research project and School Media Specialist at two high schools in Fairfield County Connecticut. I have tutored students in English throughout my tenure as a media specialist. I believe in letting children be themselves, in developing a comfortable rapport with each student so that true learning can take place.

David P - Leominster, MA 01453 (40 mi) - Poetry Tutor - $38.00/hr.
As a 2008 graduation of Westfield State College with a Bachelor of Arts in English Education I have enjoyed being a high school English teacher for two years. My training prior to my career involves experience with English at all four high school levels, drama (both academic and extra curricular,) speech methods and instruction, and urban school environments. Additionally, career opportunities while teaching have allowed me to pursue new and progressive methods of teaching literature and writing. I have a passion for teaching and working with students, and I am highly energetic and enthusiastic in the classroom. I make it a priority to help students understand that even if a subject isn't enjoyable to them, it is still rewarding to achieve success with it. I make an effort to adapt to each students learning style, whether visual, kinesthetic, auditory, or something different. By reaching

Emma L - Fiskdale, MA 01518 (41.2 mi) - Poetry Tutor - $43.50/hr.
In the classroom, I tried to achieve a comfortable atmosphere in which students might voice their opinions and raise questions about the texts at hand. While professionalism is important, I also firmly believe in maintaining an approachable relationship with my students; communication through email, individual conferencing, and work-shopping of papers are essential in helping struggling students with their writing. I have found that once a student’s ideas and imagination are joined with organizational skills and proper essay structure, anything is possible; however, students often need someone to coax these ideas out onto paper, or aid them in organizing these thoughts in a logical manner. My passion for literature and writing led me to study English for both my undergraduate and graduate degrees. This interest and enthusiasm for reading literary and academic texts transferred into my fr

Courtney N - Holden, MA 01520 (41.4 mi) - Poetry Tutor - $41.00/hr.
During my four years at Roger Williams University, I was involved with a number of activities that helped me in my desire to become an English teacher. Volunteering with the Girl Scouts of Rhode Island as a leader, editing my college newspaper and sitting on a number of committees are just a few of the opportunities I had at my college. Now, as a first year teacher, I am using my love of teaching and aiding others to not only help my students be the best students they can be, but I am also encouraging my students to get involved in their community and the world around them.
While in college, I was a writing tutor for 2 years. I have also tutored this year as well. As a first year teacher, I am using my creative impulse to establish a relationship with my students. I am fostering a love of learning in my classrooms, as well as a desire to learn more about the world. I am someone
