Hailah S. - Tuscaloosa, AL 35404 (11.8 mi) - Reading Tutor - $22.50/hr.
I am very patient. I will do whatever it takes to ensure that my clients are comfortable with me. Therefore, my teaching style really depends on the client. I teach which way will be best for my client. Before I begin teaching, I tend to ask my clients about their studying habits in order to understand the ways the best help them succeed and, also to see if there's any improvement need to be taking. I am a senior college student at The University of Alabama. I speak English and Arabic fluently and fully confident with the basics of the French language.

I have taught classes at the college level since 2004. These include U.S. History surveys, the Civil War, African-American History, and others. I have worked mostly with teenagers in these classes. Recently, I tutored high school students at Dr. Linda Pearson's Reading and Math Center in Birmingham, AL. I am very comfortable working with students to improve their reading and writing abilities. I try to set high standards in order to prepare students for future work. I like to ask questions which stimulate students to think about big ideas.

Austin P - Tuscaloosa, AL 35401 (9.2 mi) - Reading Tutor - $53.50/hr.
My teaching style exhibits a very individualized, hands-on approach. Even in a classroom with 20-30 students, I attempt to understand individual learning styles and work with students on an individual basis when possible. As a tutor, my approach is not to use a standard approach to which I expect the student to adhere. I feel it is my responsibility to understand how the student learns and comes to understand. Once I can get a feel for this, I use this individualized approach to make the student feel comfortable and confident that they can accomplish the task they are trying to complete. I have had numerous experiences teaching over the past few years through my degree program at the University of Alabama. As part of my clinical experiences, I have taught in middle school and high school History and Social Studies classrooms. Last year, I taught for an entire semester at Tuscaloosa Count

Julie R - Tuscaloosa, AL 35401 (9.8 mi) - Reading Tutor - $41.00/hr.
I love helping people achieve their goals. I try to find things that the kids enjoy and incorporate those things into my teaching style. I give the students plenty of time to figure out the answer and do not get frustrated with them if it takes them awhile. When the students get a correct answer, I praise them and try to boost their confidence. As a recent college graduate, I understand the time and commitment it takes to achieve success in school. I earned a bachelor degree in chemistry with a minor in liberal arts. As a member of the chemistry honor society, I tutored students in chemistry during my college career.

LaKenya M - Mc Calla, AL 35111 (27.7 mi) - Reading Tutor - $35.50/hr.
My teaching style follows one important rule: NEVER become so concerned with following my lesson plans to the letter that I miss what is truly important: teaching moments. A teacher has to learn to listen to his or her class and realize when the moment to abandon the lesson plan has come. This willingness to release some control over the class and allow it to develop more or less organically does not always come easily, however. Goal-induced anxiety can make a teacher reluctant to let go of the reins out of fear that the class will go off in some random direction. As an elementary educator of 3 years, I was instrumental in developing and implementing a working curriculum consistent with individual and group learning needs of my Language Arts students. I sought to improve on-task behavior by setting high expectations for student behavior, maintaining standards through classroom management

Tessa S - Bessemer, AL 35023 (34.6 mi) - Reading Tutor - $34.50/hr.
I love to teach and to work with children. I understand that children learn differently so I teach children on an individual basis. I decide what each child needs to be successful in their learning and base my lesson plans on the individual child. I am a very patient and outgoing person therefore I will be patient with your child as they go through the learning process. I believe that all children can be successful if given the right circumstances. I believe in setting the child up to succeed. Being successful increases the child’s confidence in themselves therefore making them more successful in the classroom. As a graduate of Auburn University, I earned a bachelor’s degree in Early Childhood. I have 10 years of teaching experience ranging from Kindergarten to 4th grade. Through the years, I have tutored children in various subjects, so I know what it takes to be a successful tu

John Wylee R - Columbus, MS 39705 (38.3 mi) - Reading Tutor - $32.50/hr.
I have spent the better part of the past 12 years teaching grammar, creative writing, literature, and basic English structure. I have my BFA in Creative Writing and my BA in English from Arkansas Tech University, and I have my MA in English from Highlands University. I have taught all levels of college composition, creative writing, and American Lit. Also, I have taught English at the high school level. Also, I have a minor in American History. I believe in personal interaction with students – making them write, making them read – going over every detail, looking at the issues (grammar, punctuation, syntax, coherent structure (logic, unity, transitions, parallelism,)) and then re-writing and re-reading. The key to doing well in English is understanding basic structure and making it become second nature when writing. Through personal interaction, the process can be simplified by wor
