Christiane E - Whitefish Bay, WI 53217 (17.9 mi) - Latin Tutor - $39.00/hr.
I have been a foreign language teacher and tutor for 25 years (including English, reading and writing). I have taught all levels, all ages, mostly French (my mother tongue), German (my second mother tongue) Hebrew and English. I taught in private schools - 3rd to 12th grades - and in the public sector too: middle and high schools.
I took teen-agers abroad, to Europe, (I was their only chaperonne) to supplement what we learned in class.
I also tutor adults and children, mostly in languages.
I strive to make learning the most fun and relevant as possible. I am a fervent believer of Gardner's mutiple intelligences, because I know that each person has a unique learning style, and unique interests. Therefore I will do all in my power to discover each and every student's learning preferences, so that learning becomes a responsible, joyful experience.
Consequently, I use eccletic methods

Benjamin W - Mequon, WI 53092 (25.3 mi) - Latin Tutor - $40.00/hr.
I was an exceptionally driven high school student, taking the most difficult schedule my small private school would offer. My course work included AP calculus and AP US government, on both exams I received good marks. In college I studied a wide variety of classes in pursuit of a degree in the liberal arts. My main foci were history, foreign languages and English literature and grammar while maintaining a love for the sciences and mathematics. I have spent the last two years teaching English as a second language in China. My time there was spent teaching the oral skills and tutoring in reading and writing. As a student I enjoyed most the teachers who facilitated learning. Teachers who lead students on a road of discovery as they learned, who taught me how to think and not what to think. I model my teaching after the same style I enjoyed as a student. Helping a student discover fo

Bernadette K - Mundelein, IL 60060 (32.5 mi) - Latin Tutor - $42.00/hr.
Learning happens when students are not only engaged by the teacher and the material presented, but also sees the relevance of the subject matter in their own lives. Learning occurs in classrooms where students are comfortable making mistakes. Learning results when expectations are high, the praise forthcoming, and the criticism gentle. I consider teaching a form of parenting. It is my job to provide order, structure, and security. It is also my job to regard each student as an individual, to challenge each student appropriately, to recognize individual strengths and weaknesses and to provide various approaches for learning so that all students can be successful. As a graduate of Northwestern University with a B.A. in Classics and a parent of an Ivy League graduate, I place a high value on quality education. My experience as an adjunct faculty member of the Pace Program at National-Lou
