Thomas H. - Asheville, NC 28801 (8.8 mi) - Writing Skills Tutor - $27.50/hr.
I try to meet the needs of the prospective student, and teach them in a way that will be beneficial to them. I have taught Spanish as well as tutored people in Spanish, music (guitar) and English composition. Also, I have some experience with teaching English as a Second Language. I taught beginning level Spanish to 8-12 graders for one year. I have tutored three different individuals in music (guitar) and love helping people to find out how to be creative in their pursuit of music. And, with English, I have tutored one individual with grammar and composition. I thoroughly enjoy writing, and have an eye for good writing.

Gennell L. - Asheville, NC 28803 (9.2 mi) - Writing Skills Tutor - $38.00/hr.
I have over 20 years of experience working as a university instructor and private teacher for students ages 11-50. Most of my experience has been in English as a Second Language programs for community colleges and research universities, including M.I.T. and Tufts University. For the past several years I have been assisting middle and high school students with Latin (I have studied over 11 years of that language) and have also tutored beginning German and English writing. Personal, humorous, and energetic. I tailor games and activities to each class and do not think teaching directly from a text inspires many to learn. Typical key elements of my courses include flexible lesson planning, personalized tests/quizzes, adding cultural content, and incorporating student ideas as much as possible.

Mikal H. - Hendersonville, NC 28739 (17.8 mi) - Writing Skills Tutor - $15.00/hr.
I am a very hands-on teacher. I try to help students by showing them how it is done and then letting them practice. I have experience in all of the fields that are listed. Most of the skills I have acquired were either through learning them during my time at school or through doing personal research because they interested me. I have done some tutoring in the computer/i.t field as a side job. Chess has been one of my favorite things to learn. My experience with chess has been a regional tournament where I made it to the last-round of the semi-finals.

Terunda D. - Greer, SC 29651 (41.1 mi) - Writing Skills 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 inc

Carol F. - Duncan, SC 29334 (43.9 mi) - Writing Skills Tutor - $87.50/hr.
Relaxed but exacting. I have tutored writing at the college level since 1985 when I finished a formal course in tutoring methods. Since then, I have tutored writing and other subjects for people as young as 12 through college-age. For 15 years, I also taught college writing courses including basic writing, English composition, research composition, creative writing, and advanced poetry writing. I am the recipient of a Nation/Discovery award for poetry, and my poems have appeared in many literary magazines and some anthologies. I recently put out a novel. Additionally, I scored 198 out of 200 on the literature Praxis examination, which is a national teacher certification exam.
In addition to teaching writing, I ran an interdisciplinary learning center for 11 years. There, I hired, trained and supervised tutors in many disciplines--usually at least 90 per semester. The Center normally

Shannon D - Leicester, NC 28748 (5.9 mi) - Writing Skills Tutor - $34.50/hr.

I have earned a bachelors degree, in both English and Anthropology and a certificate in American Sign Language. I have furthered my learning through volunteer positions in my community as well through my chosen career path. During the last ten years I have tutored students on elementary and high school levels, held substitute teaching positions, taught study abroad programs in New Zealand, Australia and Fiji and worked as a journalist and editor and a number of different publications throughout the southeast. Among my many passions, I consider children and education to be two of my highest priorities. I believe that all children have the ability to learn, but each in different ways;

Jonathan M - Asheville, NC 28806 (7.2 mi) - Writing Skills Tutor - $38.00/hr.
I strongly believe that the success of education depends on how well it targets a student's learning style and values. Everyone can learn, but individual attention is a vital part of that. We don't all learn the same way or at the same speed, and these differences should be addressed in a positive and creative way to both convey the subject material and strengthen a student's ability to learn in the future. I received my B.A. in English from Appalachian State University where I also received training in education. Afterward, I became an instructor at Richmond Community College, teaching basic reading and math to adults with learning disabilities as well as a course on PC literacy & business training. In addition to classroom instruction, I've had one-on-one experience tutoring university students in English and Learning Skills.

Catherine S - Asheville, NC 28806 (7.7 mi) - Writing Skills Tutor - $38.00/hr.
I believe in connecting the learner with the content in order to make the whole process real and relevant, not just isolated pockets of fact-finding. I do this by creating a non-judgmental, non-threatening learning relationship in an environment where students feel comfortable expressing themselves. I determine what kind of obstacles a student may be constructing that can undermine his/her ability to be successful in the classroom. I pride myself in being able to help students discover their own best methods for overcoming roadblocks to learning while understanding how to think about how their own thinking! Students enthusiastically and thankfully find that this process serves them for the rest of their educational careers! I have taught both middle school and high school students, and I have extensive experience understanding how adolescents learn. I'm skilled at determining why a stude

Sharon S - Asheville, NC 28803 (8.8 mi) - Writing Skills Tutor - $40.00/hr.
As tutors we must recognize their individual learning styles along with their strengths and weaknesses to help them succeed. Most children seem to learn best visually and kinesthetically. Through pre-testing, we can learn where the child needs to start instruction and to look for gaps in learning that often cause confusion interfering with their ability to learn a particular concept. We must most of all be patient to reduce anxiety which can interfere with learning and build a rapport with each child. After receiving a B.S. degree in elementary education (1-8) and an ESL certification, I taught K-6 for 13 years. After that, I was a math consultant for one year. For the next 6 years, I tested, diagnosed, and wrote psycho-educational reports for students to see if they qualified for placement in special education classes and set up their individual educational programs. Later, I taugh
