Over twenty years success in teaching, including homeschooling my own four children, has made me an exceptional tutor. I love children, care about their lives and academic progress, and have the experience of classroom teaching to help me relate to students' needs. I am equally at home in the classroom, in groups, in person one-on-one and online. Caring, concerned, earnest, fun, relaxed

Terunda D. - Greer, SC 29651 (41.1 mi) - Sociology Tutor - $60.00/hr.
Education, teaching in particular, gives individuals the opportunity to give back what they have received. It is communication on a broader level than just simply putting forth information to whomever chooses to accept it. I started my career in education before I set foot on a college campus, through a peer-tutoring program in my high school. This experience allowed me to work with severely disabled peers learning functional skills for independence. Since then I have worked as an aide in emotional/behavior and multiple-disability middle school classrooms, as well as LD-resource, ED self contained and SC occupational diploma program. In addition I have earned a degree of distinction with the National Forensic League, been name a scholar-athlete in South Carolina and a host of other accolades in scholarship. I have experienced both urban and suburban school settings and have had in

Jason Y - Leicester, NC 28748 (6.7 mi) - Sociology Tutor - $39.00/hr.
I am a recent graduate with a Master of Science in Environmental Studies with a Conservation Biology concentration. This education has required that I become acquainted with a wide variety of subjects including mathematics and the natural sciences. This also entails having a high level of written and oral communication skills needed to bridge the gap between science, law, and policy. I have worked in the college setting as a community service coordinator and collaborated with several faculty to incorporate community service into their classroom curriculum in a wide variety of subjects. My teaching style varies greatly depending on the needs of the student; however, I always try to meet the student first and then decide which approach will be the most effective. My philosophy of teaching revolves around the theory that a tutor or teacher's primary role is to support the student so tha

Gary P - Asheville, NC 28806 (6.7 mi) - Sociology Tutor - $34.50/hr.
Working as an assistant teacher in Davidson College encouraged me to pursue a career in educating children. I currently work at Eliada Homes helping teach at-risk children the skills required to lead a successful life. I focus on details and I guide the students to develop a general understanding of the topic or material studied. I often use humor to animate interest and participation among the students. I am dedicated to teaching others, confident in my abilities, and patient during times of stress. As a graduate in one of the top liberal arts colleges in the nation, I received an education that enhanced my skills as a writer, as a leader, and as a thinker. I worked as an assistant teacher for the Spanish department where I conducted speaking drills to improve the proficiency of Spanish for elementary level students. I also frequently led class discussions to garner confidence in sp

Marcianna C - Asheville, NC 28801 (8.9 mi) - Sociology Tutor - $39.50/hr.
As an undergraduate student, I became a substitute teacher for Fulton County Schools and taught in this capacity for four years K-12, focusing on primary grades. Prior to that I taught in adult private, health related programs for another four years. Since 2000, I have taught high school and undergraduate students in the subjects of wellness education and English (as a second language, writing, and reading). My teaching style is holistic, relying upon the philosophy of Dr. Parker J. Palmer who attempts simultaneously to maintain humility, keep the focus less on himself and the students, and more on the subject. With the subject at the center of the room, I prepare myself beforehand to fan the flames of interest as needed to keep the students engaged. This works by first encouraging students to focus on themselves and using their own experience or questions as the best approach to the

Laura P - Asheville, NC 28803 (9 mi) - Sociology Tutor - $42.00/hr.
I am a mother of 3 children who are all very successful students. My eldest will graduate a semester early from college this month. My middle child is a junior in college and my youngest child is a senior in high school who will be entering college next fall. I speak of my children because I have helped them whenever they have had problems with their studies. When my older two were in elementary school, I was a coach for their Odyssey of the Mind teams. I pride myself on my understanding of grammar and am very good with math as well. I tutored elementary school students as a part-time job in college and later tutored students in my son's class. I understand that any child can run into problems with schoolwork. I try to find out why the child is having a problem before trying to help them. Did he miss something and fall behind? Is she simply bored with the subject? The approach I t

Rachel L - Asheville, NC 28801 (9 mi) - Sociology Tutor - $32.50/hr.
I enjoy working with people and helping them gain the confidence to complete their assignments. Each person is a unique individual with inherent talents and skills, as a tutor I help to facilitate the use of these strengths to build confidence, to help the student enjoy the learning process and to help them succeed in academics and life. I absolutely love to teach, I love to see the spark when a student finally understands a difficult concept and the smile that comes from success! I have been teaching in some capacity since High school. During my diverse experiences working, traveling and studying, the commom denominator has always been my love and passion for teaching and education. I have worked with children and adolescents from infancy through college, and with adults as an ESL instructor. I have a Bachelors degree in French and Environmental Studies, a teaching credential for Multi-

Naomi U - Asheville, NC 28801 (9.2 mi) - Sociology Tutor - $38.00/hr.
I am a strong proponent of self-directed learning. The best retention of material and new skills comes when a student finds the subject engaging and is able to relate the subject to their own experiences, passions, and goals. All people learn differently; therefore, it is helpful when a student is able to learn particular methods and study skills that will continue to benefit their future learning. I love asking questions that allow a young person to reach their own conclusions. As a child, I felt very much empowered when teachers and mentors supported my own explorations and created the spaces for me to learn in my own way. I graduated from Stanford University with two bachelor degrees, BA in English Literature and Creative Writing and BA in Art and Art History. I am extremely competent in reading comprehension, composition, editing for grammar and content, and in constructing crit

Melissa B - Asheville, NC 28801 (9.2 mi) - Sociology Tutor - $39.50/hr.
My teaching style is based on the needs of each particular student, and, in cases where ability levels are varied, I find ways to use the strengths of each student to help the group as a whole. In my experience as a tutor, I have found that children often just need extra attention to thrive. Some of my most difficult cases, as a result, have become the most rewarding. My focus is on the natural abilities and creativity of each individual child and on fostering those abilities through well-organized and thoughtful instruction. The ability to learn and thrive is innate in everyone; it is the teacher's task to bring those qualities to the forefront. As a participant in a bilingual tutoring project, I thrived in connecting with my students and tailoring the lesson plan to their specific needs. I accompanied my students in the classroom, translated assignments from English to Spanish, and pro

Lisa R - Asheville, NC 28803-1858 (9.4 mi) - Sociology Tutor - $36.50/hr.
I believe that all students, regardless of gender, socioeconomic environment or ability, can learn and should be challenged with creative and applicable opportunities to achieve their best. Understanding that not all individuals learn in the same way, at the same rate or retention level, my responsibility as an educator is to create a safe learning environment that facilitates academic, social, and emotional growth that is developmentally appropriate. This enables those students entrusted to me to become active and contributing members of the community and encourages life-long learning. I obtained my licensure through NCTEACH in Specific Learning Disabilities. I am Highly Qualified by way of Praxis exam. I have taught grades 6-12 in almost all disability identifications primarily math and language arts; however, have supported various other subject areas.

Zachary H - Asheville, NC 28801 (9.7 mi) - Sociology Tutor - $36.50/hr.
I begin teaching each tutee by first observing their own approach to studying, listening to their explanations and questions about the material, and indentifying their strengths and deficincies with respect to knowledge of the subject. Then I attempt to mold my approach based on these observations, course requirements, and my own personal belief that we are all capable of learning most anything as long as it is presented to us in a way we can understand and that is enjoyable and exciting for the student. Since childhood, my hunger for knowledge has driven me to study and learn about almost as much as I possibly could. My high estimation of learning has often led me to help others to learn whenever I can. Always drawn to math and science, I pursued chemistry in college and received my B.S. from North Carolina State University in Chemistry in 2002. In grade school and high-school I was alw

david k - asheville, NC 28804 (10.2 mi) - Sociology Tutor - $35.50/hr.
I have worked with a large spectrum of skill levels & motivations, & have developed skills to meet all levels. I have extensive experience working with learning disabled children, & many of my strategies are geared to diverse learners. I have mainly tutored upper level/motivated students, but I try to fuse my methods together. I discuss problem solving techniques, word problem approaches, patterns, non-calculator skills, & vocab in order to promote self-confidence and understanding of their weaknesses/strengths. I encourage them to ask questions, interrupt for clarification, & to feel comfortable with me. I am known amongst peers as having excellent rapport with students of all social groups, and being respected by them, not just liked. I graduated Brandeis with degrees in Psych. & Engl./Amer. Lit, with a Sec. Ed. minor; I also was a TA for a humanities course as a senior. Though I
