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 (22.5 mi) - Political Science Tutor - $67.50/hr.
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. 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.

Marc D. - Enfield, CT 06082 (26 mi) - Political Science Tutor - $32.50/hr.
Everybody deserves a safe and equal opportunity to enhance his or her knowledge. It is imperative that teachers create a classroom environment in which every student feels as though he or she is valued, belongs, and can make a contribution without fearing ridicule or humiliation. Students will feel more confident and will be more willing to take chances if a comfortable learning environment has been established.
Part of creating a comfortable learning environment depends entirely on the teacher’s personality. If the student feels as though the teacher is open, honest, sincere and caring, he or she will not only respect the teacher more, but will also feel comfortable learning from that particular teacher. I have been able to establish very good rapport with my students, and because of this, many students have been willing to go the extra mile on my behalf. Establishing good rappo

Nathaniel A - Middletown, CT 06457 (7.4 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

Caitlin R - Killingworth, CT 06419 (9 mi) - Political Science Tutor - $37.50/hr.
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 excel when given more time, focus, or a new take on their academics. I truly believe that tutoring is an excellent supplement to any child's education because I know from experience that every student truly wants to learn, just in their own way. It is my goal as teacher and tutor to instill not only a better understanding of the subject matter in my students, but a love of learning and a sense of capability. 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 En

DebraLee R - Glastonbury, CT 06033 (11.1 mi) - Political Science Tutor - $44.50/hr.
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. 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.

Joseph G - Rocky Hill, CT 06067 (11.5 mi) - Political Science Tutor - $53.50/hr.
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, graduating with honors while I earned a BS degree with a double concentration in financial accounting and business management, including a minor in psychology. I then pursued my MBA degree, achieving an honors grade point average.
Computer skills are essential in today’s climate and I can proficiently use Microsoft Excel, Word and PowerPoint. Community involvement is also important and I have served in the Boy Scouts, U.S. Army, and Knights of Columbus. 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

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.

Jayson M - meriden, CT 06450 (13.6 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.

I have wanted to be a teacher since I was in elementary school and now that I have graduated I am excited to finally live out my childhood dreams. I am very enthusiastic, patient, and creative.
