Knowing how to be more effective in studing makes learning easier. My students have improved their grades across the board with the help I have given them. The parents and teachers noted the improvement after using me as a tutor. I believe learning should be two way. Students should learn from a teacher and the teacher should be willing to learn from the students. My lessons are personalized to the student needs. My lessons are interactive.

Hayli T. - Gardnerville, NV 89410 (28 mi) - Elementary School Study Skills Tutor - $27.50/hr.
Throughout my academic career, I have acquired many useful study skills from different schools and teachers. I have various way of taking notes and remembering formulas and criteria. I believe proper studying is the way to pull honor roll GPA's. The only thing I cannot provide is proper sleep and a snack to keep their brain fueled and energized. Throughout my academic career, I have done in-class tutoring in exchange for credit. I have also helped my family members, neighbors, and friends to study, complete homework, and even do reports. My range of subjects is very versatile, anything from Oceanography, to Intercultural Communications, to Culinary Arts, and even 3D sculpture and design. Of course outside of these elective type courses, I have a 3.7 GPA in my general education, including Math, English, Science, and Social Studies. I attended a charter high school, where we took ou

Pamela T - Carson City, NV 89706 (14 mi) - Elementary School Study Skills Tutor - $38.50/hr.
I love working with students. As a teacher I enjoy the learning process and love watching the students discover new concepts and ideas. As as school counsleor I assisted students in working at their emotional and challenging behaviors. In both positions I strongly believe each student has the potential to learn. I teach to the different learn styles of my students. When I was working as a secretary I knew I wanted to further my education. I returned to school and completed my bachelor of science in education. As a classroom teacher I realized the many problems my students had to deal with. This prompted my to complete my master in school counseling. I have attended several workshops throughout my career to enchance my teaching and counseling methods with Reading, Writing and Grammar for students of any age.

Kristin P - Carson City, NV 89703 (14.8 mi) - Elementary School Study Skills Tutor - $37.50/hr.
As a tutor, I am professional and pleasant, well-organized and prepared. I explain concepts clearly and thoroughly. In tutoring sessions, with individuals or groups, I am empathetic and listen well. Early on, I will assess my student's strengths and areas for improvement--as well as interests and learning style. This helps me be even more effective in helping students progress. I am a patient and articulate tutor/teacher. I have truly enjoyed the many years I have helped my students. I am an award-winning educator, with 10+ years' experience teaching community college level English (095, 098, 101, 102) and Strategies for Academic Success. I also have 5 years' experience tutoring in study skills and all aspects of writing, including researched writing. I am excellent at teaching and love it, especially working one-on-one with students. I am a strong test-taker and enjoy coming up

Devon H - Carson City, NV 89702 (15 mi) - Elementary School Study Skills Tutor - $41.50/hr.
I have been working with children and adolescents in a variety of capacities for 20+ years. I truly enjoy their energy and their desire to be successful given the right encouragement and direction. For the past 4-5 years, I have been a substitute teacher and tutor for K-12, working with a culturally diverse mix, in the areas of math, English, science, health education, music, journalism, and theatre. I have received pictures, flowers and numerous other tangible "thank you's!" from parents and children and love this work! Given the right atmosphere, I honestly believe anyone can learn. Unfortunately, many individuals are given labels, especially regarding their learning capacity, and once that belief system is in place, the expectations are often lowered and self-esteem suffers. I believe in positive encouragement and support, while working through difficulties with a 'can do' attitude on

Randy G - Carson City, NV 89703 (15.1 mi) - Elementary School Study Skills Tutor - $36.50/hr.
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.

Peggy D - Reno, NV 89502 (18.4 mi) - Elementary School Study Skills Tutor - $37.50/hr.
I have been preparing and conducting adult coursework for a variety of computer - based applications and software for 15 or more years. The courses were done in large lecture environments (30 or more at a time) and also small or individuals sessions, and remote (phone and web-ex) deliveries. I am experienced in assessing group attitude and individual needs and am told that I am very adept at putting my "students" at ease, both through delivery style and in customizing and breaking down the materials for the particular person or group.
I am a mother of 2 grown children and one young grandchild. When my children were in elementary school I volunteered at least 1/2 day each week in their classrooms - helping as needed. Sometimes that meant a little extra time with a student learning to tie his shoes, and other days reading to a circle of children. I love helping others learn and grow

Elizabeth J - Minden, NV 89423 (22.5 mi) - Elementary School Study Skills Tutor - $38.50/hr.
I have been an elementary teacher for over 21 years in Wisconsin,
Ohio, Arizona, and recently in Reno, Nevada. I hold a Masters Degree in Counseling from Kent State and acquired this in order
to better serve the children in my classroom with their
needs.
I have taught all the subjects successfully and have also taught
Music, Art, Dance, and Drama to the children in my classes.
I have also worked as teacher to Learning Disabled children for
four years. I believe that our children hold the future of our world in their
hands and hearts and for this reason I have a deep desire to
assist them in learning all of their subjects as well as they
can.
My approach is democratic in that I ask the child for his/her
input on what they like to study and learn too. Finding out
a childs loves is important for a teacher. An example is:
Going to the library to find books for students

Leanna J - Sparks, NV 89431 (22.5 mi) - Elementary School Study Skills Tutor - $42.50/hr.
Not only working with children, but teaching them has always been a passion of mine. I have worked at the YMCA of the Sierra for almost 4 years, and tutoring children through UNR has been such a pleasure and privilege. I have gained the insight and honest understanding that any child, with specialized help, can move far beyond their educational and emotional expectations and abilities, proving to especially themselves their own potential. I used the method of Behavior Analysis during my tutoring of Autistic children, which has truly taught me a lot in respect to creative methods and organized procedures for teaching and/or tutoring children. In attending the University of Nevada, Reno, I was introduced to and involved with several programs working with youth. I was a CASA (Court Appointed Special Advocate) working with children who were removed from their home for various reasons. (Paren

Elizabeth R - Gardnerville, NV 89410 (22.7 mi) - Elementary School Study Skills Tutor - $37.00/hr.
I love teaching and believe it is my calling in life. I do believe all children can learn, but in different ways.I look forward to teaching your child in a customized manner, which best meets their needs and learning style. My goal is to help all children reach their full potential, whatever that may be. I use a variety of techniques to help children reach their goals and keep myself updated on new theories yet I also feel comfortable using many tried and true techniques as well. I have taught preschool,elementary and adult students for the past 8 years. As a preschool teacher, I developed my own curriculum and taught 3 year olds. I also worked for four years as a elementary teacher for Douglas County School District, in which I was responsible for organizing and following state and district K-2 curriculum. More recently, I have been employed at Family Support Council of Douglas County t

Bradley G - Sparks, NV 89431 (22.9 mi) - Elementary School Study Skills 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
