My teaching style inists of utilizing all aspects of learning. Visual elements are incorporated into a study to help students conceptualize and memorize the highlights of our session.

Gloria M - Rockford, IL 61107 (15.6 mi) - Creative Writing Tutor - $35.50/hr.
I strive to develop each student's interest in the subject at hand. He or she is far more likely to enjoy learning and retain information this way. I follow a method of individual trial and error supplemented with examples and corrections. I have recently graduated from the University of Delaware and intend to pursue a Ph.D. in chemistry within the next few years. My major was in Chemistry with a minor in Biochemistry; I also focused on Theatre, Japanese, French, English, and Biology. I spent two semesters as a Teaching Assistant for General Chemistry and held personal office hours for tutoring regularly. I have worked at a learning center teaching students of all ages. In addition, I tutored various subjects in high school including ESL.

Terri M - South Beloit, IL 61080 (24.4 mi) - Creative Writing Tutor - $56.00/hr.
I tutored online for AOL for ten years. This included all grades, with emphasis in the science and music fields. I also edited articles for their knowledge database. Editing involved examining articles, making sure that each one was clear, concise, and free of mistakes. I wrote many articles for the database, as well, in several different areas of study. I enjoy working with students of all ages and needs. I have worked with children in our public schools, as well as with autistic children in their homes. I have learned that patience and praise are major tools in teaching, enabling students to experience success and confidence in their education.
