Harry S. - Reno, NV 89506 (20.1 mi) - Poetry Tutor - $44.00/hr.
I prefer a "hands on" approach in a one-on-one environment. I have had success with classrooms of up to 120 students, but I prefer the individual monitoring. It yields the best results.
I have tutored remedial reading at the Elementary level for a tutoring service out of Phoenix, AZ for the Washoe County School System in Reno.
While in my undergraduate study, I tutored fellow students who were struggling with beginning music theory. Another classmate and I taught classes in 4 levels of theory for up to 120 students while at U of P-West Chester.
I teach Music Reading, Voice production and beginning theory to individuals in my church choir as well as microphone and performance technique. I hold a BS in Mus. Ed. and an MM in Music Composition.

Hannah P - Reno, NV 89523 (23.4 mi) - Poetry Tutor - $38.00/hr.
I think that kids light up life and make it interesting. That's why I love working with them. I love the intellectual stimulation of the older age groups and the academic challenge they present. However, I love working with the younger kids as well, learning their fresh take on life and watching them learn HOW to learn is like watching life happen before your eyes. I think the most important concept for me, as a tutor, to remember, is to allow the student to arrive at the answer themselves. To get them to think, and by thus doing so, empower them to sharpen their skills and learn independently. I have experience tutoring anything from phonics to college level writing. I taught preschool for a year and a half at the Lion and Lamb Christian Preschool in Reno, NV. I have also tutored at the UNR Writing Center (when it still existed) during the Fall semester of '08. Since October 20

Nicole L - Reno, NV 89503 (24.9 mi) - Poetry Tutor - $33.50/hr.
I thoroughly enjoy teaching, especially the satisfaction of watching a student that was previously struggling start to succeed as a result of your time and instruction. I am an extrovert, personable, intelligent, and am not limited to one specific style of teaching. Moreover, having an extensive background in sports(collegiate athlete/captain), I have developed and improved a critical attribute which allows me to personalize my teaching/instruction style based on understanding/knowing how various individuals think. Overall, I want to make an impact by allowing other students to have the opportunity to receive a strong education provided by individuals that care. Currently, I am a senior at UNR nearing the completion of a nutrition-dietetics major and psychology minor. From a young age, I was driven to exceed academically, which have positively influenced my success in the classroom.

KimberlyAnne D - Reno, NV 89512 (26.4 mi) - Poetry Tutor - $54.00/hr.
I have a friendly, encouraging approach with my students; I like them to feel comfortable working with me, but I also let them know that I have high expectations and that our tutoring sessions are not social time. My goal is to get students to understand the material and feel comfortable discussing and applying it, so my tutoring sessions are often very conversational. I provide a lot of feedback and will have students practice difficult concepts multiple times before moving on because I believe that practice is a key component to learning. I like to get to know my students and pinpoint their academic strengths and weaknesses so that together we can build on those things. I recently graduated from University of Nevada, Reno summa cum laude. I was also my high school valedictorian. I have always excelled in school because I love learning and have great organization and study skills.

Jason L - Sparks, NV 89431 (27.1 mi) - Poetry Tutor - $38.00/hr.
I love to work with all children and college students. I believe that everyone can learn in his or her on way. I want your child to succeed and become better learners and get better grades. I believe in teaching with a calm voice and to be postive towards the students and not bashing. I believe that if a child or college student is motivated to work and become better he or she will be a better student and better in society. As a graduate of the University of Nevada Reno, I am driven to succeed in education. I have earned a bachelors degree in English writing, which has allowed me to understand many techniques in writing papers for different audiences. I also have a minor in Speech Communication which enables me to help students with speech writing and prepartion.

Bradley G - Sparks, NV 89431 (27.7 mi) - Poetry Tutor - $38.50/hr.
My experience in tutoring computers for the last 6 years and facilitating study sessions in college for the last 4 years has refined my skills in directing absorption of knowledge in a direction that is organized and on-task. As an avid and trained grammarian and writer, my strengths are in English. As such, I was a paid tutor for Syntax, Principles of Modern Grammar, Phonology and Sociolinguistics classes over a few semesters. However, I am malleable to teach any subject to which I am exposed (astronomy, science, etc). You can always expect a professional approach to the job from me. A strength on which I have always prided myself is my ability to relate complex concepts with useful analogies and from different angles. I never underestimate a child's ability to learn something, so long as it's in a way in which they understand it. Curriculum development is also important. By that

Michelle B - Sparks, NV 89436 (28.7 mi) - Poetry Tutor - $32.50/hr.
Most of my life has been focused on obtaining my education and improving my educational goals. I have a deep desire to assist others in reaching their full potential. I know that everyone learns in different ways, so my teaching style varies on the needs of each student. Overall, I am a calm and relaxed person that works towards keeping students on task and tries to make learning a fun process. I began tutoring my freshman year of college. I participated in a Sparks High School program designed to assist and motivate at risk students to achieve their educational goals. Tutoring continued through my own educational career, as I have spent countless hours assisting fellow peers and younger students with their school work. Now as a young professional, I would like to continue to assist today’s youth. My Law degree, along with my Bachelor of Science and Associate of Arts degrees in Bu

Jodi S - Crescent Mills, CA 95934 (37.3 mi) - Poetry Tutor - $48.00/hr.
I enjoy helping others and thereby learning about myself in the process. I believe my teaching style revolves around communication, compassion, and finding the best way for the student to grasp the lesson or idea presented. I feel that everyone has their own way of comprehension and the challenge is for me to discover it.
I have taught primarily college and university level students ages 18+. I have tutored Math, English, Wildlife Biology, and Cell Biology. I never claim to have all the answers, only many ways of finding them. My professional background is primarily in marine mammal behavioral biology. I have 10 years field experience studying whale and dolphin habitat use, foraging behavior, and human interaction occurances. I also have a strong background in terrestrial wildlife conservation and natural resource policy.

I am a registered Professional Civil Engineer and have worked managing construction projects around the world. I am proficient in math and english and enjoy showing others how to improve their lives through education. Albeit I have not taught in a school system, I have taught my own three children in our own home school. I really like children and love seeing the light go on when they finally comprehend the area of study that has been troubling them. I want children to learn to think for themselves in problem solving, not just go through the steps to get to an answer. Learning can and should be fun.
