Deron B - Algoma, WI 54201 (8.1 mi) - Literature Tutor - $39.00/hr.
I believe that applications to everyday life should be stressed if a tutor/teacher is to pique the interest of their student(s).
Rather than stressing rote memorization, I believe it is more important to relate overall concepts in a "partnering" style.
It is important to remember that one of the cornerstones of teaching is making the subject matter interesting and relevant to the student's experiences. I believe it is also important to focus on a student's strengths rather than their weaknesses. As in many areas of life, teaching also requires patience. From my experience, children benefit greatly from an easy-going approach where they are regarded as equals and treated with the utmost respect and dignity. During my enrollment at the University of Arizona in Tucson, I tutored several students in advanced psychology courses as well as advanced English composition courses to under

Michael G - Green Bay, WI 54301 (19.6 mi) - Literature Tutor - $58.50/hr.
I have often been cited as an engaging instructor. Able to make complex concepts eminently understandable. I like to work in an open forum type of environment and encourage class interaction as a primary learning vehicle. Nothing in my life or career has provided me with greater personal satisfaction than to impart knowledge to those who truly seek it. I was a member of the AT&T Regional Education Center staff where my primary responsibilities included development/delivery of custom technology presentations and delivery of required sales certification courses. I was a member of team that developed comprehensive call center curriculum offered as a fee-based product by AT&T Call Center Consulting. This included courses specific to associate, supervisor and manger in the areas of customer service, inside sales and account management. These courses were later adopted as accredited course off

Jeff O - Suamico, WI 54173 (20.8 mi) - Literature Tutor - $55.50/hr.
If I could choose one word to represent the way in which I do things it would have to be integrity. I choose this word because it implies a transition from knowing to acting in accordance with one's sense of self as a whole. By bridging the gap between tutor to student I participate in an act of truthfulness which is mutually beneficial. I encourage intelligence, creativity, and development in myself and those around me. I am fun loving and eager to help others. I also have plenty of group-work experience from my communication minor and English comp workshops. While in college my professors often paired me up with the struggling students because of my strong writing skills. I recently graduated cum laude (3.704 GPA) from the University of Wisconsin Green Bay earning a BA in English with an emphasis in creative writing. While attending UWGB I served as the fiction editor for The Sheepshea

Summary of Experience
Dan B. Carlson
Worked for Ford Aerospace in Palo Alto CA. Worked with detailed and complicated procedures in the construction of communication satellites. Proof read and wrote procedures at the Palo Alto facility and Cape Canaveral. Was test conductor in charge of launch operations.
Since 1984 I have pastored churches in Wisconsin and Santa Cruz CA. This has involved thousands of hours of study and composition of sermons and lessons. I’ve written articles that were published covering topics such as a two week trip to New Orleans after Hurricane Katrina to do crisis de-briefings for police officers there. The wise King Solomon wrote,"As a man thinks in his heart, so is he." One of the most crucial parts of teaching children or youth is bringing them to the place where they truly believe they CAN accom

Kristine K - Green Bay, WI 54313 (22.9 mi) - Literature Tutor - $36.00/hr.
I believe establishing a solid personal report of respect with a student, and finding and focusing on positive characteristics, establishes a good foundation of trust and insentive for achievement for all parties involved.
My good would be to provide the skills that accomplish this focus by reviewing the current status, contacting the subject teacher with proper permissions, and in-put from what the student is experiencing and how he/she feels about the educational matter. With this information a plan would be developed with specific study skills and review and subject goals.
My goal would be to show the student that the choices he/she makes will provide the results that he/she desires from his education. As an on-call substitute teacher, I covered the K-12 grade levels from 1986-2000. I also was a religious education volunteer teacher during 1981-1991.

Lauren M - Green Bay, WI 54313 (24 mi) - Literature Tutor - $36.00/hr.
I am a second year UW Madison student pursuing a math degree. I have completed Calculus 1, Calculus 222, Calculus 234, Calculus 3 based engineering statistics, and Actuarial Science (a class designed to prepare actuarial students for the P exam). Next semester I will take Linear Algebra and the Basic Concepts of Math. I enjoy working with young people very much, and I have an intense passion for math, so I have chosen to pursue a career in Math education.
During my freshman year at UW Madison, I volunteered weekly at Sennett Middle School to tutor students in math and science. It was exciting to watch these young students improve their knowledge and skills. From my tutoring experiences last year, my teaching style would best be described as very proactive. Many of the students were extremely frustrated by the concepts that they did not understand. This created an apathetic atti

Brian R - Pulaski, WI 54162 (29 mi) - Literature Tutor - $36.00/hr.
I enjoy teaching and investing in children. I was credentialed as a Substitute Teacher. When I taught in public schools teachers would request me by name to teach for their classes. I have experience working with elementary ages through high school and even adults. When teaching I try to break complex materials and concepts down into practical illustrations and concepts so the student can see the big picture then fit the concept into that picture. I don't believe in just teaching raw data for kids to memorize, but instead try to illustrate concepts in ways that they can understand to enable them to best understand the material. I have two B.S. Degrees, one in Humanities and the other in Technical Project Management.
Computer experience - Microsoft classes and college courses in networking and web design. My most recent job I was an IT Project Manager. I have 15 years of experien

Terceira M - Manitowoc, WI 54220 (29.6 mi) - Literature Tutor - $40.00/hr.
My pedagogy is summed up in a basic belief that everyone is capable of learning. With this understanding, I am aware and try to be observant of each individual's own unique manner of acquiring knowledge. I then am able to access and better fit their needs. And always with patience and respect because the self esteem of us as learners is crucial to our future success. I currently am achieving my BA in a double major in English Literature and Creative Writing. However, I did previously study Secondary Education and English at a former institution. Through both discourses, Education and English, I am both strong in content and method. I have three years of experience as a tutor and teacher assistant in the areas of Math, English, and Science. I have worked with a variety of ages and levels of learners; from high school to infants. And have even acquired my infant and toddler as well as chil

Heidi R - Manitowoc, WI 54220 (29.7 mi) - Literature Tutor - $40.50/hr.
I have recently returned to school to pursue my teaching license in secondary education in English. I have a passion for reading and writing and can't wait to pass on my excitement to future students. My first degree in Journalism and Mass Communication. I love helping kids learn and recently worked with Autistic children over the summer. I have a great deal of patience and love seeing kids reach their maximum potential. I believe everyone has the chance to succeed if they are given the right opportunity. I believe everyone learns differently and therefore catering to one's individual needs is important. I myself am a visual and hands-on learner and because of this would most likely try to incorporate this in my teaching style.

Joseph H - Appleton, WI 54911 (41.8 mi) - Literature Tutor - $38.50/hr.
I enjoy hands-on teaching and one-on-one interaction with students. Good writing can simplify the thought process, and leads to students becoming better thinkers and communicators.
I am easy-going and patient, but I take language and writing very seriously. There is no excuse for poor or careless writing, and I believe that an easily-taught, simple approach, can unlock the potential of any writer. I achieved an English degree from the University of Wisconsin-Madison, where my senior thesis was selected as a finalist for the UW Creative Writing prize.
I am passionate about the English language, but I think that writing is becoming a lost art. Quality writers are quality communicators. As writing in general falls into disrepair, those who can write clearly and read critically will have an edge in every institution they enter--from the University, all the way to the workplace.

Molly B - Appleton, WI 54915 (43 mi) - Literature Tutor - $36.50/hr.
I enjoy teaching students of all ages, and the challenges and rewards that go with it. I believe that students learn at their own individual pace, and as the teacher I need to accomodate this while encouragin progress. My studies in psychology taught me the importance of positive reinforcement and constructive communication to the learning process. I believe learning occurs in small steps and concepts need to be broken down into smaller pieces for learning to effectively occur; these steps need to be mastered before the student moves on. By mastering these smaller steps, students will be motivated to learn. I enjoyed the challenges and rewards of my college education because I was motivated to acheive my personal best. I earned a BA degree in Psychology with an emphasis in Behavior Analysis, and a minor in Animal Behavior. I also chose to take several english and writing courses to

David S - Grand Chute, WI 54914 (43.8 mi) - Literature Tutor - $34.50/hr.
While studying for my Masters in Education I realized that in order to be effective as an educator, I must be a lifelong learner. My goal is to pass on this philosophy to all my students. Children and adults find me capable and successful in teaching content. I strive to make my lessons engaging and interesting and pride myself for creating and implementing a safe and friendly learning environment. The key to success is to reduce the stress level for my learners and I find when that is done learning comes easier. My undergraduate degree and work experience was in criminal justice. Since retiring from the investigative field I have obtained my Masters in Education specializing in literacy and learning in the content areas. I have been teaching full time in South Korea for the last four years. I started out teaching young learners phonics for one year, English conversation to high school s
