Isabel G. - Renton, WA 98059 (16.9 mi) - Typing Skills Tutor - $20.00/hr.
When I teach, I try my best to be open minded, and to give choices to the student, rather than follow a closed-box cookie cutter curriculum. I've found it's important to find a personal way of learning for a specific student.
Variety is important, because every child learns a little differently. Some kids learn by listening, others by seeing. Some kids learn only when they're making things.
Encouragement and recognition when progress is attained by the student is a great incentive. I'm currently a student in school who has had a wide range of experience in various different subjects, specifically working best with mathematics, science and language arts in the elementary and middle school level. I'm familiar with I've been doing my best to educate myself in as best as I can, not simply for the sole purpose of filling a resume, but for the sake of learning.

Wesley S - Fall City, WA 98024 (7.4 mi) - Typing Skills Tutor - $46.50/hr.
I like to instill in students a desire to learn. It makes it easier for them to have fun learning and easier for me to teach them new subjects. My first goal as a tutor, especially in reading and writing, is to connect with the student and find a topic that interests them. One of the biggest issues faced by struggling students is that they often don't identify with the problems. For a struggling reader this might mean not enjoying the subject matter of his/her book, and a for a student behind in math it may mean not seeing a real world application for the problems. Establishing a good relationship builds trust and also inspires the student to want to learn. I spent most of my high school and college career honing my writing and reading ability, and through four years of English classes I have developed excellent writing skills. Additionally, my computer and internet knowledge has grown

Lawton W - Issaquah, WA 98027 (13.9 mi) - Typing Skills Tutor - $46.00/hr.
I've taught in a Preschool classroom at my church for 1 year, and I've been a substitute teacher for the 2nd grade classroom at my church for 2 years. I've homeschooled two children for the past 11 years, and I've spent two years as a math instructor at a homeschool co-op. I've also worked as a tutor for Eastern Washington University's Computer Sciene Department for 2 years, and I've mentored several co-workers in software development over the past 28 years. I treat math phobias and anxiety with respect. I teach students to be relentless when conquering their math problems. With the younger crowd, I often turn it into a game. With older kids and teens, I stress the importance of exposure and repetition.

Alexis M - Woodinville, WA 98072 (18.9 mi) - Typing Skills Tutor - $46.50/hr.
I place a high value on practical education. I graduated high school at the top of my class and received my AA degree just a few of months later- all while working full-time.

Eleanor B - Renton, WA 98056 (20.7 mi) - Typing Skills Tutor - $41.50/hr.
I taught to engage the audio, visual and kinesthetic capabilities of each student in the learning process. I encouraged note taking by creating handout outlines of the information being covered and students inserted notes into each section of the outlines and I used physical objects to demonstrate how computer systems work and students took apart, put together and troubleshot their classroom computers. Midterm tests were take-home exams for students to research information and final exams were closed book taken in class with questions taken from the take-home exams. Students worked on a project related to computers and write a final paper describing the project using writing skills outlined in class. With nearly a lifetime of teaching youth and adult learners, I have focused on teaching computer skills in the more recent period of my career. Computer skills include the physical use o

Pete O - Seattle, WA 98103 (26.4 mi) - Typing Skills Tutor - $42.00/hr.
In college I volunteer tutored at the Crawford Country READ center to a pupil struggling with reading comprehension, writing and mathematics. In addition to this, during my senior year at Allegheny College I was a teaching assistant for a Research Design and Statistics I and II course. Furthermore, I am currently living in Pittsburgh as a private tutor. As a recent college graduate I can understand the difficulties some students may face in grasping course material and feel capable of connecting and conveying information in an effective way. In the past I have worked with students both one and one and within a group setting, and feel comfortable adapting to any particular group or individual's needs. I believe effective teachers must compose a delicate balance of meticulous discipline and natural concern. The best teachers and professors of my academic career were not only intelligent, b

Joel S - Shoreline, WA 98133 (27.3 mi) - Typing Skills Tutor - $50.00/hr.
I got my BA in linguistics from the University of Washington, and earned an MLitt and PhD in English language from the University of Glasgow, Scotland. My training in English and linguistics has equipped me for critical thinking from both the literary and scientific angles, and given me detailed knowledge of English grammar. Past positions as a proofreader for EFL students, an IT tutor, and a reading tutor for primary-level students each add further dimensions of experience and versatility to my teaching repertoire. I enjoy writing, and ten years of college and postgraduate studies in two countries have honed my skills, allowed me to teach in a wide range of settings, and provided many chances to share my knowledge with others. I love to introduce students to new ways of thinking about language, literature, culture, and history; there's nothing better than "seeing the light go on". My ai

Michelle W - Enumclaw, WA 98022 (28.4 mi) - Typing Skills Tutor - $43.50/hr.
It is my belief that teaching truly works only in partnership with learning. My preferred approach to teaching is to start by finding out about students' needs and interests to help them develop and meet their goals. By planning out what students have to learn and showing how these things can lead to what they want, teachers bring students into the process of taking responsibility for their own education. Finally, accepting responsibility for their own education allows students to become life-long learners, which improves their ability to adapt and change with future challenges. I have worked with students of almost every age and level. My first teaching degree was a Bachelor's in Early Childhood Education. With that degree, I worked in a preschool, and I have substituted extensively in elementary schools and in middle and high schools for 12 years, learning to work with math system

Mark B - Federal Way, WA 98023 (34.5 mi) - Typing Skills Tutor - $42.50/hr.
I present the information or concepts at hand in several different ways. I draw on the learners personal experiences to make the information or concepts relevant to them. I help the learner tie the information or concepts to their own knowledge base thus establishing ownership. I tutored for the Federal Way, WA campus of DeVry University from spring of 2007 to fall of 2008. I tutored students in English, multiple maths, programming, game design, logic, and test prep. I stopped tutoring to devote my time to the final project of my degree. Now I'm an independent video game developer tutoring to make "ends meet" while I'm working on my first commercial game project.

Yolonda W - Tacoma, WA 98418 (38.6 mi) - Typing Skills Tutor - $43.50/hr.
My experience as a teacher began in my Church, I taught for 3 years in one of our Sunday School classes. My students ranged in age from 2-11 years old. After graduation from the University of Washington I was unsure if Education was what I wanted to do. So I chose a different path, and found out just how much I loved to teach. I decided to take the certification exam for Reading and Elementary Education I passed the Reading exam and missed the Elem. Ed by 5 points. I decided to go into Adult education to see if it was for me. I began teaching communications at Bates in November of 2009, I now teach Interpersonal Communications and a Human Relations course. I just completed training to become a certified online instructor. I love to teach, and I believe my teaching style is very laid back. I like to allow my students to attempt things and try to figure it out with the information I provid
