I have completed my bachelor's degree in Psychology for the University of Pennsylvania and wish to continue my education to become a school psychologist.

Phillip M. - Mechanicsville, VA 23111 (21.8 mi) - ACT Tutor - $30.00/hr.
I have over 10 years of experience in the education field with a special love for tutoring Mathematics. My experience is extensive as I ran my own tutoring business for 3 years doing mostly freelance work in college. The unique thing about my experience is that I have tutored ages 8-28 through my many recipients. I have a knack for getting children and adults excited to learn whether it is through motivation outside the subject area, or showing them that they can in fact do this. My teaching style is upbeat and positive. If I cannot be excited for my subject areas. Why should any student I tutor?

Stephanie B - Chester, VA 23831 (6.3 mi) - ACT Tutor - $43.00/hr.
The most important skill I can teach someone is how. I believe in not only helping students to understand the material but instilling in them a joy of learning. I want students to understand how to get to the answers, why the answers are correct and how to do it themselves. This skill boosts self esteem and confidence.
I also believe that it is very important to teach study skills and techniques that can be applied to master any subject or exam. Sometimes students get overwhelmed, but one of the most important things a student can learn is how to plan ahead and use their time efficiently. These skills can then be applied to any subject both inside and outside the classroom. I have a Bachelors of Science in Chemistry from the College of William and Mary and will be returning to finish my Masters Degree at Georgetown University in January of 2011. I graduated with a 3.2 GPA from William

Alonda A - Richmond, VA 23223 (15.6 mi) - ACT Tutor - $38.00/hr.
I love working with children. When i was younger I had a job helping my aunt with her daycare business. I have five nieces and nephews, six siblings, two god children and one Daughter. I have always been a patient woman and Nurturing comes natural because I am a mother. I too, believe that all children can meet their potential. They all have to be in an calm secure environment. Children also have to feel comfortable around there peers and teacher in order to learn. My goal is to not only teach children, but also to help build character. Children are the future; they should be intelligent and be a good person. Completing my four years at Savannah College of Art and Design, has helped me to reinsure myself that I am capable of completing all of my goals that I set for myself. The creative skills that I have had instilled in me have also been acknowledged and rewarded. I have received my Ba

Dayna P - Glen Allen, VA 23059 (19.1 mi) - ACT Tutor - $41.50/hr.
In working with any student, the key is to be genuine and enthusiastic. A large part of successful communication is a sense of humor (!) and a willingness to work hard. My strategy is to be confident in the subject matter, comfortable in the relationship with the student, and clear on the goals. The positive accomplishments result. My educational and professional background (B.A., Masters, Doctorate of Law) supports my experience in teaching both young students and adults, tutoring at high schools and colleges, and private in-home instruction. Teaching English, History, Composition, Public Speaking, and Government and Politics, provided the opportunities to also use skills acquired practicing law.
As a public school teacher, law school tutor, and retired attorney, it is vital that my experience and communication expertise result in enthusiastic and successful learning.

Isaac R - Ashland, VA 23005 (22.7 mi) - ACT Tutor - $41.50/hr.
As a typically destitute college student, I chose to supplement my income with the knowledge I knew best. This covered non-biological sciences and mathematics, as well as conversational Spanish and English literary composition up to the sophomore college level, Over the last five years, though the three years of my undergraduate education were the most busy, both peers and high school students took advantage of my services. Post-pubescent persons have a great capacity to learn abstract material; all that is necessary to open that potential is to motivate them. I do not specialize in that motivation. I do, however, excel at taking a puzzled student and explaining the difficult material in a way that makes sense to him or her. Mnemonic devices, simplifications, and advanced tools contribute to progress for any student of mine.

Lester B - Powhatan, VA 23139 (23.3 mi) - ACT Tutor - $39.00/hr.
For just over a decade I have been involved in some form of peer education or mentoring. As a senior in high school, I tutored students in mathematics and science. As an ACS Certified Chemist, I have been exposed to upper level mathematics, chemistry and physics, but am still required to use writings skills in preparing various reports and papers. The opportunity to be a Teaching Assistant in upper-level chemistry and mathematics was rewarding and reinforcing at the same time. I have served in a variety of leadership roles, both academic and extra-curricular, that have shaped the person I am today. The chance to tutor peers in high school was the initial spark towards considering education as a career. During my undergraduate studies the desire has grown as I was given the opportunity in the role of Teaching Assistant. I found from those experiences that I have an ability to gauge a stud
