Michael B - Wilton, CA 95693 (15.7 mi) - Musical Tutor - $46.00/hr.
As a recent college graduate with a BA in Spanish and a BA in International Affairs, I possess current experiences from my studies in the United States, Europe and South America. Since attending college in Spain and Argentina I understand word usage and vocabulary differences within the Spanish language. Mixed with my superior Spanish skills I am able to discuss and explain political differences in Spanish and explain, on a historical level, how government has evolved internationally. As a past member of the Sacramento Jazz Society I also have a strong background in music both in practice and theory. Since high school, I have tutored others in Spanish, government, music and sports. I come from a family of teachers and, like my parents, I enjoy helping others and reaching the end goal of aiding a student in attaining their own aspirations both long and short term. I understand the di

Al H - Auburn, CA 95603 (30.2 mi) - Musical Tutor - $45.50/hr.
My first visit is just an assessment of where the student began to get lost regardless of the age or level. More often that not, they have to memorize their fractions to decimal to percentage conversion from 1/2 to 1/12. Given this underlying knowledge allows me to focus on the subject at hand. I usually recommend purchasing a Spark Notes or something similar for the subject as a reference guide. I use examples from the book to review, and assist in homework. I do not do the homework for them, however, do ask how they will approach it before diving in. I add tips and tricks and different ways to approaching the problem. I also assist in anxiety control, study and organization habits. I started tutoring classmates in seventh grade and tutored friends in college in Trigonometry. I have earned two BS degrees in Landscape Architecture and Computer Science with a minor in Math. this diverse e

Shanna S - Sacramento, CA 95822 (30.6 mi) - Musical Tutor - $45.50/hr.
I earned my Bachelors of Fine Arts in 2003 and I have taught creative writing, theatre, playwriting, and acting since then. In 2005, I gained my substitute teacher credential and have taught all around Sacramento, substituting for teachers in all subjects. I also write plays and poems. I have always had an interest and talent for teaching kids. I have taught kids from one on one, all the way to audiences of 300. I have also worked as a nanny for 10 years, so I know what kids are into, what they like, and how to get them to respond. I believe that kids learn better when they are enjoying themselves and sometimes even having fun! I try to make the things they are learning interesting and entertaining. If a child does not want to learn, they won't, by adding fun into the equation, you have created the desire to learn in that child. I am very patient and easy-going, but I also know when to l

Bonnie M - Sacramento, CA 95831 (31.9 mi) - Musical Tutor - $40.50/hr.
“Shoot for the moon…
Even if you miss you’ll land amongst the stars.”
I believe that there are no limitations to the amount of knowledge that a student can acquire. I have high expectations of each and every child, keeping in mind their own personal potential at all times. Private tutoring allows me the opportunity to do what I enjoy most in a more relaxed environment. I conduct my tutoring sessions in a demanding, yet nurturing atmosphere. I don't believe in busy work. I believe that through intense one-on-one guidance and practice a student can succeed in leaps and bounds. Each student's success, both personal and academic, truly is my greatest goal!! For 13 years, I have been teaching at Merryhill Schools at the 4th, 5th, and 4th/5th grade levels. As the designated Lead Teacher for 5 years, I was responsible for orientation and supervision of new teachers. In ad

Bernadette B - Stockton, CA 95206 (37.8 mi) - Musical Tutor - $48.00/hr.
I believe children need to feel success in the classroom. Making a mistake is not necessarily bad. Sometimes making a ton of mistakes is the route to understanding. Repetition is necessary to building strong skills. I try to create a positive environment for learning, stress free. I'm an upbeat individual who's highly motivated to working with students of all ages. Prior to receiving my BA in Music, I worked for over twenty years in the medical and pharmaceutical field as a medical transcriptionist, medical biller/coder and pharmaceutical technician. I attended many courses to obtain a medical transcription license and pharmaceutical technician license in California. During my early college years, I tutored music students at Diablo Valley College in Pleasant Hill, CA and math students. I made a decision to return back to college to pursue a degree.
I graduated from the University

MabelJoy D - Yuba City, CA 95991 (53 mi) - Musical Tutor - $40.50/hr.
As a former military child, I have learned to adapt very quickly to any situation and believe every experience is a learning one. I have worked with both military and non-military with my duties in some jobs included helping people with software and computer skills. My undergraduate degree in Mass Communications strengthened my ability to communicate effectively and sparked further interest in education. Since my graduation in 2003, I've completed over 60 units of college classes. I am currently working on a second degree, in Nursing. Exposure to the sciences and many other classes that require extensive reading, critical thinking, communication through discussions and writing papers has prepared me for a tutoring position such as this. I am a believer of diversity. I don't believe that learning is "One size fits all". I am aware that children come from a variety of backgrounds and th
