Kimberly W - Plainfield, IL 60544 (29.1 mi) - Sculpting Tutor - $50.00/hr.
Every student is different, therefore every student has different needs. Every student also can learn differently, whether it be by incorporating more or less visual learning strategies, auditory learning strategies, or using more of the "hands on" approach. Learning can be and should be fun! I love teaching a student to success and when they enjoy what they are doing they are much more likely to succeed! As an active member of my community, in the form of pageantry, volunteering, and leadership, I have always enjoyed instructing others. Currently, I love my job at Midwest Generation as an Instructional Designer of Training. I get to train Engineers and Office Managers on subjects I knew little about, and have grown in responsibility and development. I love kids, since my summer camp instruction job I held all throughout High School as well as an active instructor at my church. I just gr

I believe that the role of a teacher is to capture the curiosity of students by providing them with lessons and activities that require them to think outside of the box. Such activities should be hands-on and encourage the students to use their senses. I agree with John Dewey, the famous education philosopher, who believes that it is beneficial when teachers use experiential learning because it engages students and presents them with direct experience and focused reflection, which in turn, increases knowledge, develops skills, and clarifies values. I believe that when teachers provide students with hands-on activities, they have a better chance of becoming actively engaged in each lesson. I am an energetic and dedicated teacher who strives to encourage students to go beyond their very best by creating a positive and respectful learning environment. I establish high expectations for all o

Isaac W - Chicago, IL 60615 (45.6 mi) - Sculpting Tutor - $58.00/hr.
The advantage of one-on-one tutoring is the productive, personal relationship that arises between tutor and student. As a tutor, I use this relationship to make lessons more fun and more significant. Rather than providing a mundane and meaningless list of facts, I explain the significance of the material by linking specific principles to larger themes. Towards these ends, I adjust my tutoring style to meet each student's academic and personal needs. I listen to my students, encouraging them to ask questions about the material I present. My background in mathematics enables me to provide difficult challenges for even the most able student, but I am also patient and thorough enough to get a struggling student back on track. While pursuing my honors degree in mathematics at the University of Chicago, I supported myself through numerous tutoring jobs. I have taught mathematics to students of
