Gabriel T - Seattle, WA 98101 (8 mi) - Sign Language Tutor - $41.00/hr.
Everyone has the ability to learn but not everyone has the same ability. Most people are visual or tactile learners whereas most teachers, in my experience, use verbal/aural instruction methods. I believe in tailoring my teaching to the needs of the student and not to what I am most relaxed with. I have personally taught several tactile students who had to have something in their hands or they could not grasp the concepts. Other times I've instructed students in strong visual methods incorporating drawings, artwork and short videos. During my studies at USU I worked at Adams Elementary both as a Teachers Aid as well as a Mentor during the After School Program. I worked one-on-one as well as in groups of students grade k-5. This position was one of the most rewarding and enjoyable that I've had and would love to continue.
I have also taught American Sign Language at the University in the

AnnaKatherine G - Tacoma, WA 98406 (8.6 mi) - Sign Language Tutor - $39.00/hr.
I have work with special education student, as well as advance placement student. I have only noticed one difference with each group and that is the pace that the classroom goes in. Although I enjoy working with small groups or one on one with student I believe that I am able to work with more then ten students at a time. I really try to let the kids explain to me how they interoperate the dictation first and then help them a long. I let all the students do as much as they can on their own, I believe is the best way to assists a child which I have done volunteering at the Land L Learning center, I worked with young age group going into first and six grade to help them get up to grade level in reading. My goal as I help every child that I work with is to get them to be able to do it on their own with out any help by the end of the year. As I have gone through my classes at Clover Park

Carolee W - Tacoma, WA 98445 (13.6 mi) - Sign Language Tutor - $39.00/hr.
Interactive--listening to and learning from student to determine "where they're at". Then, posing questions to enable them to find their own beginning/solution/answers. If session doesn't find a promising beginning, start from a base and progress with them. Interaction prevents or indicates "going too fast" or overwhelming them--"the eyes" are engaged or indicate "shut-down". Making the math or education "mean something" provides a reason for learning or further developing the concepts.
Encouragement and sincere compliments are very important. Sharing your own struggles or an "ah-huh" moment helps ease the role differences toward a comfortable, encouraging, learning relationship. I have tutored and educated staff to raise their knowledge and understanding in an effort to help them appreciate their role and the benefit of their effort toward the goals of the overall department an

Avrielle C - Enumclaw, WA 98022 (16.8 mi) - Sign Language Tutor - $42.00/hr.
As a teacher's-assistant for children ages 4-6 I have been able to gain experience working with them one on one and in whole groups for almost two years. This has taught me the value of identifying with the child's unique learning needs in order to encourage and drive their academic success. I believe children need patience from their tutors, steady encouragement, and to be in a positive environment that allows them to feel comfortable, focused, and ready to learn without distraction. The importance of good and fun learning early on is so vital to children, and I believe it is our duty as adults to encourage this on a daily basis. I have a B.A. in Technical Theatre. This knowledge in the backstage end of theatre deals greatly in literature, particularly the study of dramatic writing. Having already a strong knowledge of English studies this experience has further aided my skills in gr

Ruth d - Seattle, WA 98102 (17.4 mi) - Sign Language Tutor - $44.50/hr.
I love working with all kinds of children. As a third grade teacher I loved having: inclusion students, ELL children, Tit. I kids, and ELP children, all in one room. I encouraged many different teachers to work with me in my classroom. I enjoy meeting the needs of the full continuum of learners through the use of lots of movement, working with partners, and working in small groups. I use lots of praise, and consistent consequences for my management system. I love teaching. I have taught special needs for 25 years, and third grade for nine years. While teaching special needs I worked with many kinds of students, including those with: autism, physical disabilities, downs syndrome, fetal alcohol syndrome, ODB, and many others. I worked in segregated and inclusive settings. I believe in inclusion, if it is done by people who believe in it and know how to do it. While teaching third g

Alexis M - Woodinville, WA 98072 (26.7 mi) - Sign Language 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. I then obtained my BA in Organizational Management and I am now in a local graduate degree program. Because of my heavy workload I was able to develop effective and efficient study methods. I have been tutoring, mentoring and coaching children, teens and adults for the past nine years with great success to them academically, socially and emotionally. I also have a great desire to teach adults and have tutored many in computer skills Specifically, I have tutored students in English (literature, grammar, writing, etc.), mathematics, science, and liberal arts. Education, youth and adult continuing education are great passions of mine. I believe that every student has the capacity to learn and has room for improve

Alisa B - Lacey, WA 98503 (28.2 mi) - Sign Language Tutor - $43.50/hr.
I believe everyone learns best when the subject matter is interesting and engaging to that student. I have always tried to adapt my curriculum to the interests of my students. For example, I found many little boys felt they hated reading, but with the right books, could actually enjoy the experience. Learning should be fun! Progress of any sort should be rewarded. Children’s opinions deserve to become part of the teaching equation. Together, you, your child and I will find the best possible way to help them learn. I chose to receive a Bachelor’s degree in Liberal Arts, so I could study many different fields, rather than focus on only one. I was thrilled with reading and literature courses; history; fine arts; sociology and humanities. I have always had a love of reading and I was happy to share the joy of reading when I volunteered my time to help struggling and early readers in elemen
