Elizabeth K. - Wellsville, NY 14895 (31.4 mi) - Creative Writing Tutor - $27.50/hr.
I have a goofy, hands-on style. I try to make it fun. I am very strict, however, when it comes to grammar, respect, and completing proposed tasks. Obviously I have different styles for adults and children. My lessons are always custom designed with the client in mind and age-appropriate. I have an arsenal of materials and activities which I constantly draw from. I aim for a balance between games of all sorts and drills/assessments. I have to be very flexible and creative while teaching, and I enjoy it very much. Thanks for reading my profile. I have tutored French and Spanish at my community college. I have conducted "baby groups" for children 6 mo. - 1 yr in a multi-lingual center for children where I worked in Moscow for three years. I have taught groups of adults English as a Second Language at Inlingua language school in DC. I have taught middle school Russian and Critical Thinking,

I meet students where they are at and have a unique ability to take them to where they want to go. I try to tap into strengths and inspire students to invest in learning by identifying their interests and making connecti

Hakim J. - Rochester, NY 14623 (37.4 mi) - Creative Writing Tutor - $35.00/hr.
Socratic, and lecture. It really depends on subjects. For example, case analysis in a political science or philosophy course can be more constructively learned through the Socratic method - that is, an open and inclusive discussion in the form of question and answer. Other subjects, such as psychology or geology may be best taught in the form of direct lectures with the opportunity to ask questions. I have years of excellent experience with analyzing, writing, and assisting others in academic as well as professional settings. I have done extensive research on various topics in Political Science and my experiences have taught time that there is never an end to learning, and there is no one single perfect answer to questions about natural or man-made phenomena.

Jenifer W. - Fairport, NY 14450 (37.7 mi) - Creative Writing Tutor - $35.00/hr.
I believe in meeting students right where they are, and letting them progress at their own rate. I make learning as relevant as possible and incorporate many hands-on learning opportunities. I present information in a multitude of ways, using modifications and graphic organizers. School should be fun, and most importantly, it should make sense!! After teaching for 12 years, I decided to step away from the classroom in order to spend more time with my own two kids. I taught in both Rochester City and Brighton, with kids in grades 7-12. Many of my students struggled in school for all different reasons. I would love the opportunity to work with you. School can be really frustrating, but it doesn't have to be. I know a few tricks to help it go more smoothly, and I'd love to share them with you!

I completed a concentration in Creative Writing while obtaining my undergraduate degree at Rochester Institute of Technology. I received all A's for my work in creative writing courses. I was awarded the Creative Writing Award at RIT for 2013. I have always had a passion for learning. Part of my passion includes helping others learn, grow, and succeed.

Greg L. - Rochester, NY 14618 (39.2 mi) - Creative Writing Tutor - $62.50/hr.
The key to my tutoring approach is that every student is unique. After we discuss what each student wants to focus on, I ask them to write a paper about a subject that we agree on. Then I take them through several revisions, with each revision focusing on key things they need to work on. I often recommend that students practice creating sentences and paragraphs that focus on each separate concept or skill they need to become proficient in. I follow that procedure over several appointments in which they write additional essays until my students are ready to move ahead without my assistance.

Ann P - Conesus, NY 14435 (15.8 mi) - Creative Writing Tutor - $49.00/hr.
Teaching is the business of taking a student from one place to another. I begin with an individual assessment that takes account of the student’s perception of the problem and the academic goals he/she needs to meet. Then, having determined what it is reasonable to accomplish, I work through repetitive assignments and increasingly complex examples to raise the student’s standard of satisfaction and equip him/her with the critical skills necessary to recognize where his work succeeds and where it does not. My approach is interactive and designed to satisfy the student’s aspiration for independent achievement and confident self-assessment. Writing has been the passion of my life: I love words, doing things with words, making words work, a capability I can readily transmit to others. I am extremely well read, a published writer, with a ready recall of literary texts to illustrate effectiv

Sara C - hemlock, NY 14466 (18.8 mi) - Creative Writing Tutor - $44.00/hr.
I have been teaching and tutoring for the past 10 years. I have a large variety of teaching supplies and resources to use to enhance the learning experience. I enjoy using hands on materials and other recourses to meet the needs of all kinds of learners. I have a “what ever it takes” attitude when it comes to teaching. I have found that creativity is an essential quality of a tutor.

Michelle H - Hemlock, NY 14466 (19.1 mi) - Creative Writing Tutor - $48.00/hr.
I am interested in tutoring because I love teaching regardless of the subject matter. I’ve been lucky enough to be given the opportunity to try several different content areas such as Special Education 7th grade Science in a Push-In model, ESOL, Home and Careers, Career and Financial Management as well as substitute teaching in many areas K-12, in addition to teaching technology in multiple districts. My background as a manufacturing engineer gives me a vantage point of what is required in the real world for success and survival in the working world. Even though teaching is my second career, it is truly what I love to do. Working one to one with students to help them find success in school, while enjoying learning, is my personal goal. Once in a classroom I realized that I was meant to teach. I love working with students who are challenging and those who challenge me. I believe that I ca
