I'm a very bright high school senior with a rigorous AP schedule at New Britain High. I don't have any tutoring experience but I've worked for two years at a christian summer camp, so I have a lot of experience with children of all ages. I've always had a talent for explaining material and making it fun, and I'm interested of pursuing a career in post secondary education.

Erin M. - Bristol, CT 06010 (19.6 mi) - Political Science Tutor - $67.50/hr.
I have been a teacher for the last fifteen years. I teach social studies, but my specialization is teaching argumentative (college level) writing.I have done plenty of SAT prep and tutoring for students at the high school and college level. I am also a school counselor and can offer a vast array of services including FASFA, Naviance/Common Application and college/career counseling. My style of education is to teach by modeling. Students need to see things in a step-by-step format with instructions, followed by an immediate example. I also provide sample argumentative essays for students who learn by seeing a complete model. My counseling style is to work with students, first by building a rapport and then using that as the foundation to get a feel for their college/career interests. I then look at their grades to help them build a custom transitional plan into early adulthood.

Marc D. - Enfield, CT 06082 (25.3 mi) - Political Science Tutor - $32.50/hr.
I have taught history/social studies in Somers, Connecticut for the past eight years. Additionally, I have an extensive background in writing. I have taught students from a variety of backgrounds. My first three years of teaching were at the middle school level, teaching courses in Ancient and World History. Currently I teach at the high school level. I have taught courses in U.S History (early and late), World History, Civics/Government, Current Affairs, and Psychology. However, I am not just a teacher of content, but also writing. My school district continues to place a tremendous amount of emphasis on reading and writing skills. All of my courses emphasize research techniques, essay writing and primary source analysis. Due to my experiences and efforts of motivating, challenging, and encouraging my students, I feel that I could and would be a very helpful, memorable, and eff

Nathaniel A - Middletown, CT 06457 (4.6 mi) - Political Science Tutor - $43.00/hr.
I greatly enjoy finding a way to inspire a child to understand the problem at hand. Through from my experience in grade school and my observation of students that attend tough schools I've realized the monotonous class schedule and disciplinary philosophy of most schools deflates most student's desire to succeed. While I can relate to this rebellious reaction I also know that it is no excuse for not trying very hard in school because the main path to success as a young adult is a high school diploma with excellent grades. I am very patient and friendly with students of all abilities. A diverse education at Wesleyan University has prepared me to tutor many high school subjects. I earned my BA at Wesleyan in Music but I almost double majored in Environmental Science. The high expectations of professors at Wesleyan pushed me to greatly improve my writing ability, with my music thesis e

Joseph G - Rocky Hill, CT 06067 (8.9 mi) - Political Science Tutor - $53.50/hr.
All students can achieve success. As an educator, it is finding the means in which each individual student measures success and the best environment for them to learn in. Understanding what the students find interesting and relating the subject matter to this environment simplifies their learning process. This is best achieved through a one-on-one learning environment. I have found this to be true whether teaching at the elementary, secondary, college or graduate level.
The reward of seeing a student’s expression of success and understanding is a pleasant reminder that educators build success in others. Whether in the environment of education, work or community, leadership and mentoring has always been my focus.
My strong educational values were developed throughout my elementary and high school levels, graduating with honors. This level of achievement followed me through College,

Caitlin R - Killingworth, CT 06419 (9 mi) - Political Science Tutor - $37.50/hr.
My MAT is almost complete, and focuses on Secondary English Education. During the past two years, I have been working as an intern and teacher on both the middle and high school levels. Before teaching, I completed by BA in Political Science and English and continued on to work for a large political consulting firm in Washington D.C. Due to all of my schooling, I have written many essays and reports, but I also write for pleasure. I have prepared students for both the CAPT and CMT tests, as well as PSAT exams. During my teaching experience I have focused on literature and language arts, and have often tutored my own students before and after school. As a teacher, I am well aware of the many different ways that children learn. As I said previously, I have been art of both the middle and high school environment, and have worked with students of many different levels. Some children e

I enjoy watching students use their natural curiosity to learn new things. By helping them ask the right questions and encouraging them to reach and utilize their imagination, students can achieve so much. As an English major at Trinity College I expanded on my knowledge and love of reading and writing. During my tenure at Trinity, I was a teaching assistant for an introductory writing class and assisted other Trinity students with developing their writing abilities.

Brian A - Berlin, CT 06037 (9.8 mi) - Political Science Tutor - $39.50/hr.
I have taught music and guitar since I was 20 years old. I continued to teach guitar throughout college where I double majored in Political Science and Theology and minored in philosophy. My grammatical skills are excellent as I currently write for two different publications on the internet. I have been tutoring for the past year in Math and Reading in all levels from 6th grade math to SAT math. I also tutor GRE math. Math and reading are certainly my strong points now as I have been working in these subjects for this past year. I am looking to expand my students though and your institution caught my eye. I have taught with students from the age of 6 to the age of 29 in all subjects from math and reading, to philosophy and history. I am relaxed and zealous when teaching students. I have a known record at teaching my guitar students all the basic chords within 3 lessons. I also ha

Jayson M - meriden, CT 06450 (10.8 mi) - Political Science Tutor - $48.50/hr.
I teach people to learn and find answers on their own. I guide the student through exercises in any field and try to avoid straight memorization by putting the subject is some kind of context.
I keep up with current trends and technology and can use that to aid in relationships and teaching. I studied education at Montclair State University for 4 years but I have a always been a teacher. From leadership roles in high school to corporate training, I have a talent for being able to boil subjects down to their basics and provide true understanding.
My strongest subjects are Math, Music, and Literature. I can also do work in Science, English and Humanities/Social Studies.

Kevin N - New Britain, CT 06053 (13.4 mi) - Political Science Tutor - $38.50/hr.
I love teaching and working with kids. Each child learns at his/her own rate and in different ways. I am always there to help them to find alternative sources to achieve their goals. I believe anyone can achieve something in life. I first started tutoring in 2001 as in-house tutor at New Britain High School until June 2005. I have earned bachelor degrees in International Business/Finance which has enabled me to gain understanding in areas of math and business. Furthermore, I have tutored students in Reading, Math, and Writing from Kindergarten to High school students as NCLB Supplemental Educational Services. In addition, I have completed Special Needs for Special Student class at University of Connecticut.
