Joseph L. - Aylett, VA 23009 (27.2 mi) - Social Studies Tutor - $32.50/hr.
As far as I can remember I have always appreciated quality education. As a small boy I remember going to the small local library in Portsmouth, Virginia where the Librarian once said that she knew that if she would only have one patron for the day that it would be me.
I have worked in three libraries during my career. During college I was selected as a Librarian Assitant based on my interest, academic achievement and overall poitive conduct at the university. After college later on in my carer after college I worked at both the Main Branch and one of the other locations in the City of Richmond, Virginia.
I believe that education is key to success early in life and that a good education make a sound foundation for later success in life. This is one of the driving forces that causes me to have an interest in tutoring to assist students in becoming strong in areas of weakness. Further

Phillip M. - Mechanicsville, VA 23111 (33.9 mi) - Social Studies Tutor - $30.00/hr.
I have over 10 years of experience in the education field with a special love for tutoring Mathematics. My experience is extensive as I ran my own tutoring business for 3 years doing mostly freelance work in college. The unique thing about my experience is that I have tutored ages 8-28 through my many recipients. I have a knack for getting children and adults excited to learn whether it is through motivation outside the subject area, or showing them that they can in fact do this. My teaching style is upbeat and positive. If I cannot be excited for my subject areas. Why should any student I tutor?

Merry W - Urbanna, VA 23175 (13.8 mi) - Social Studies Tutor - $54.50/hr.
Having been devoted to the welfare of children and families and valuing education highly throughout my life, I find tutoring a satisfying occupation. After vounteering my services for many years, I attained formal degrees in education, psychology, and counseling, with very high GPAs. I taught psychology and sociology for several years and have also tutored K-college individually and in groups for many years. Recognizing that each person has his/her own learning style, I emphasize "application" of material learned. I do this primarily by providing examples of information taught and require my students to do the same. My approach to teaching is to create a friendly environment with positive expectations to enhance the learning experience.

Jessica M - White Marsh, VA 23183 (31.8 mi) - Social Studies Tutor - $39.00/hr.
I believe in a multi facet teaching style. Children learn by many different ways. Some children learn by audio, visual, or kinetic. So, I would teach in a style that suited by the student's needs. I love teaching and working with children. I understand differen conditions such as Autism and Attention Deficit Disorder. I really enjoy working with special needs students because they are great and I thrive helping these special students. I worked at Majesty Christian Academy for two years. During tha time I was a Teacher's Assistant. I assisted lead teacher with student instruction. I also supervised children and were responsible for taking care of children. I was offered a position and taught a computer course to elementary students. I have a Bachelors Degree from Old Dominion University in Education. I enjoy working with children, I prefer working with elementary students.

Adam R - Williamsburg, VA 23185 (35 mi) - Social Studies Tutor - $40.50/hr.
I enjoy instructing others, especially through the use of analogies and personal stories. Growing up in a very different, rural environment often provides me with various examples and personal situations that are often pertinent to the subject at hand. In addition, I actively attempt to connect the subject material with non-academic subjects, such as musical interests or athletics, two areas which I also enjoy. I understand the concerns students have with being assisted by a tutor and attempt to make that process as fulfilling as it is necessary. As a college graduate, I decided to pursue graduate studies in the field of Historical Archaeology and History. A recipient of a B.S. in Anthropology/History and a minor in Biology from Radford University, this new focus is a continuation of my concentrations from my undergraduate career. I am fluent in US and World History as well as fundamenta

Kevin D - Mechanicsville, VA 23111 (36.3 mi) - Social Studies Tutor - $36.50/hr.
I am an Account Executive with Epitome Networks, a Richmond tech firm. I have more than 20 years of experience in business development and journalism, and I have worked at companies of all sizes -- from start-up firms to Fortune 100 companies. I have an MS in Mass Communications and a BA in English. I have tutored children and adults in English and French for about four years in my spare time. I love sharing my knowledge and helping others as a tutor, and I am fortunate now that my flexible work schedule allows me to continue this kind of teaching. I am a patient, friendly, and fun individual. Like I tell my own children, I believe that teaching and learning is a two-way street. It's important for teachers to engage students, to help them discover, to guide them in their learning. There's a good deal of back-and-forth initially to determine a good learning program, and it takes constant

Bonnie T - Highland Springs, VA 23075 (38.3 mi) - Social Studies Tutor - $41.50/hr.
I am a creative teacher, meaning that I assess the individual and do not have an agenda that I adhere to. Normally, I am able to advance a child a grade level in reading with three months of tutoring and reinforcing homework, during the summer. However, I will go the extra mile to help a student be able to totally understand what I am trying to help them learn. I have numerous children's educational CD-ROMs for the children who learn better with that visual help. I love to watch children learn and love to be the one who makes them able to succeed. I have a number of visual and written tools and will find out what works with the student and find a way to make that available. I have been a volunteer for various literacy programs for the past several years, focusing primarily on phonics rather than sight reading. I have worked in two group homes for dually diagnosed adults, meaning both

Christopher C - Richmond, VA 23222 (41.6 mi) - Social Studies Tutor - $38.50/hr.
Working with children requires different methods or styles of teaching. Once working with a child, you'll be able to see what there needs are. You can try different methods and see which one they respond to most accurately. I have worked with students in grades 9 - 12, taught material from approved curriculum, and developed daily lesson plans. Most importantly I participated in school retention initiatives by providing regular, accurate and timely feedback to students and school concerning academics, behavior and attendance. I can motivate students to actively participate in all aspects of the educational process. I’ve mastered displaying problem solving, cooperative negotiating skills and conflict resolution strategies. I know how to use classroom instructional time appropriately and wisely. I have also completed 50 Practicum hours to include observation of the classroom as well as taug

Eric W - Richmond, VA 23220 (43.8 mi) - Social Studies Tutor - $44.00/hr.
As a Cum Laude graduate of VCU, I achieved my academic goals with a major in chemistry and a minor in mathematics. Upon earning my BS in Chemistry, I also provide much of my chemical and mathematical expertise to fellow classmates by being the leader of study groups and chemistry and mathematical informational sessions. Outside of the university I was also a mentor at a local elementary school where I taught math, reading, and other elementary curriculum. After being a mentor for two years and the leader of different study groups for different age levels, I have learned that everyone learns differently and at a different pace. My display of patience, persistence, and constructive suggestions, make it easy for children and fellow classmates to learn at a level in which they are comfortable. My organized, honest, and straight forward teaching tactics make it easy for children to understand

John S - Colonial Heights, VA 23834 (48.7 mi) - Social Studies Tutor - $42.00/hr.
I have considerable experience working with college/high school students and I really enjoy impacting their lives by imparting knowledge and skills to them. I know that all students face challenges in learning certain concepts or ideas, and that each has their own learning style. I strive to present information in a number of different ways - visual, verbal, practical, theoretical, etc. that are tailored to the learning style of individual students. I believe in instilling a strong grasp of fundamental, underlying concepts and building from those to more detailed or advanced ideas. I have over 14 years experience in applying statistics, mathematical modeling and operations research techniques to complex national security policy problems at a major "think tank". In addition, I recently completed teaching an international relations theory course at the University of Richmond. In addit
