William K. - Ipswich, MA 01938 (33.9 mi) - Literature Tutor - $30.00/hr.
I have worked at the Salem State University writing center for the last two years. At the writing center, I work with students on papers in all subjects, from math to English. My experience at the center has helped me develop methods for helping students plan and organize papers, and also for addressing grammar and style issues. I also have a lot of experience working with ESL students. I consider myself a very laid back person and am flexible in terms of addressing the student's concerns. I primarily work in subjects related to writing. My training is in philosophy, so I tend to focus on helping students develop strong reasoning/arguing skills and a precise voice. I find that these skills, which are heavily emphasized in philosophical writing, carry over well into all forms of academic writing.

Straight forward and student centered. UMAINE graduate with ample ESL teaching experience can help you build confidence. I've over eight years teaching experience in both Korea and Japan.

Allison L. - Beverly, MA 01915 (40.7 mi) - Literature Tutor - $32.50/hr.
Extensive knowledge of classic/contemporary literature and authors. My teaching attitude is patient, articulate, and meticulous. I have clients come to me with a writing purpose - an essay, a specific assignment, or the desire to write creatively purely for fun. I make sure I help an individual say exactly what they want on paper in a non-generic way. I encourage clients to be creative and to challenge the formulaic patterns of writing, while still respecting writing assignment expectations and goals.
I help in the following areas:
- Grammar & Editing
- Organization, Outline & Structural Development
- Exploratory creative writing exercises
- Teaching literary elements and techniques using the Bedford Literary Glossary
- Essay Writing (Persuasive, Critical Analysis, Evaluative, Personal, Feature, Editorial etc) I recently graduated from Gordon College with a degree in English Liter

Rebecca G. - Manchester, NH 03103 (41.8 mi) - Literature Tutor - $20.00/hr.
I believe strongly in adapting to the students style of learning. There is no "one size fits all" in learning. I think it is important to go beyond teaching the facts by exploring the bigger picture. Development of critical thinking skills should go hand in hand with teaching the test materials. I have a degree in English Literature and graduated with a 3.66 GPA in 2012. I have written hundreds of college level essay and research papers. I have a Master's Degree in Creative Writing and I am currently attending Southern New Hampshire University to obtain a Master's Degree in Education. I work as an educator and specialize in Language Arts.

Virginia B. - Chelmsford, MA 01824 (51.8 mi) - Literature Tutor - $37.50/hr.
I am a fan of Howard Gardner- I believe each student has his/her own learning style. Knowing these learning styles can help both teacher and student accomplish academic success.
I also believe in a gradual release of responsibility on the student's part.
Teaching vocabulary before the actual lesson can help the student understand more completely. I have recently acquired a Master of Education degree in Education-a lifelong dream.
I have taught in both private and public schools in grades PreK-6.
I have tutored many students along the way-including summer school for struggling readers and writers.
My most recent assignment was a permanent substitute position in the first grade.
I am currently tutoring in ELL AND ALL ACADEMIC SUBJECTS.
I have passed all the MTEL exams and have helped fellow colleagues with these exams.
I also hold License to teach Special Needs.

Richard F - Cape Neddick, NH 03902 (2 mi) - Literature Tutor - $38.50/hr.
In working with young adults, I try to unlock my students' potential by helping them discover the immense power that language can convey and that can be at their disposal as both readers and writers. As an avid reader and writer myself, I attempt to instill my own enthusiasm for lifelong learning and to instruct students to hone their critical thinking with an eye to deepening their understanding and to expressing their ideas with clarity and precision. Since attaining my Masters Degree in 1972, I have worked at various jobs in educational and literary publishing, both as an editor and writer, and have taught English and Creative Writing at the high school and undergraduate levels. As a secondary language arts editor and writer, I have broad experience in the creation of grammar, composition, and literature textbooks. I am also an award-winning author of five collections of poetry and ha

Deborah L - Kittery, ME 03904 (8.8 mi) - Literature Tutor - $58.50/hr.
I taught Language Arts from grades 7-12 for 27 years.
I maintained a classroom,organized my curriculum as well as
doing interdisciplinary projects.
I retired from active teaching in 1999, but I did a brief
period of tutoring with a young child with academic disabilities.
I would really enjoy teaching again and would appreciate any opportunity to achieve this My teaching style was both original and personal.
I have had the opportunity to travel to many parts of the world, and I brought those varied experiences to my teaching.
The students would ask me to tell them stories of my travels.
This was partly to get off the subject matter, but they also enjoyed hearing about different parts of the world as qwell.

Kenneth B - Portsmouth, NH 03801 (10.6 mi) - Literature Tutor - $36.00/hr.
I like to take the dry facts and rules of a subject and engage the students -- primarily through Harkness Mehtod discourse -- on the relevance of the subject and text to contemporary life, whether to absorb material or simply for the learning experience of deconstruction. Having the students write accomplished papers -- essay, research or argumentative -- is always a rewarding experience for myself and my students. I began teaching high school Drama while still in college in 1982, and went on to win four state championships. I began tutoring SAT students and teaching prep classes for the Princeton Review in 1989. I have taught GED prep for Rockingham County Services. In 1992, I began tutoring special needs students and teaching summer school social studies at Portsmouth High School (1992-1997). That year, I returned to college and earned a degree in English.

Jonathan S - Portsmouth, NH 03801 (11 mi) - Literature Tutor - $45.00/hr.
I am very comfortable working with students of all ages. I am extremely patient and easy-going with a good sense of humor. I believe in enabling students to become proficient life-long learners. I try to encourage my students to look beyond the textbook in order to achieve greater enrichment in their lives. Learning should not stop at the school doors. In order to be successful in life, students need to learn how to find and utilize resources to help them grow and mature intellectually throughout their lives. It is my ultimate goal to enable students to think critically and become successful life-long learners. Over the past several years I have helped students achieve their potential in a wide variety of educational settings. I have taught several different subjects including social studies, math, reading, and French to students ranging from kindergarten to seniors in high school. Altho

Justin G - Dover, NH 03820 (11.2 mi) - Literature Tutor - $38.50/hr.
As an undergraduate I worked at the mathematics tutor lab in our department. As a PhD student I both taught and assisted in the teaching of mathematics courses at the university level. Also I have experience with privately tutoring elementary, jr. high and high school students. I help point to the truth, aiding the student in discovery. I try to avoid being overly didactic, and prefer to work by asking questions. The most satisfying thing about teaching is being able to witness and participate in the process of comprehension.
