Holly B. - Pearl, MS 39208 (9.7 mi) - Composition Tutor - $40.00/hr.
I have taught a mixture of 9th, 10th, and 11th grade English over the past 4 years. Teaching is a second career for me and is something that I absolutely love! Being able to help children read, comprehend, and prepare their minds for the future is so rewarding. Much of my experience is in the state tested area of English, focusing heavily on grammar and reading comprehension. Reading is a huge past-time of mine and something that I heavily incorporate into my classroom.

Steven S. - Brandon, MS 39042 (11.8 mi) - Composition Tutor - $27.50/hr.
I have been an AP Literature and Composition teacher as well as Twelfth grade Language Arts instructor for over 16 years. I am acutely aware of the needs of students as it relates to mastering reading and writing skills. I have also taught an ACT Prep course for the past 5 years after extensive training at workshops and conferences. I know the importance of identifying weaknesses in reading, writing, and on standardized tests such as the ACT and directing my instruction to those weaknesses. I am especially skilled at targeting writing weaknesses as it relates to both rhetoric and mechanics as I am a practicing writer myself. Though reading ability is gained with much practice, there are practice methods to increase speed and cognition. I differentiate my instruction both in the classroom and individually to work at all writing and reading levels so that maximum benefit is achieved by the

Lucky D. - Jackson, MS 39211 (16.2 mi) - Composition Tutor - $25.00/hr.
I believe sometimes it is the teacher failing not the student. To become a Doctor we don't always have a choice. i was blind in my left eye and completed on a level equal to all other students. Now they call them special needs. I believe in cognitive dissonance is best way of knowing the retention is high. Repetition is not like having the knowledge of the empirical charts in chemistry and memorizing. A scientific method is used to achieve this by chemist.

Kristian M. - Jackson, MS 39206 (16.8 mi) - Composition Tutor - $32.50/hr.
The child chooses the style. What I mean by this is that every child is different and every one of them learn differently. Teaching on a more personal level
is how to aid the best results. My experience started in my high school years helping my brother and sisters with homework while our mom was working. Presently I am employed at a day care center/ school, were everyday is spent engaged with the kids and their educational needs. I love interacting with the children at work so much so, that the idea of taking on tutoring sounds more so like a new hobby.

Travis J. - Clinton, MS 39056 (19.8 mi) - Composition Tutor - $27.50/hr.
Perfect practice makes perfect. I like to have the student look, listen, then do and teach me; because when you can teach the subject you have truly mastered it. I'm a junior at Mississippi College with a 3.60 GPA. I major in political science and minor in communications. i have interned at law offices and voluntarily taught civics to elementary students. I am the brother, nephew, and husband of teachers: all of my relatives have given me ample opportunity to be involved in traditional class rooms.

Shaurita H. - Canton, MS 39046 (32.3 mi) - Composition Tutor - $62.50/hr.
I've been a tutor for the past 8 years. I started tutoring/teaching as a college student, and I've loved every moment. It's so rewarding to see a student's growth in a subject area. I've provided Praxis and ACT prep to students as well as provided help for subject are state tests such as Biology and U.S. History. I love all math and science related subjects and excel at helping students relate to them. I prefer inquiry based learning in which I utilize the facilitator and "personal model" methods to help students improve their independence, increase their confidence to explore subjects independently, and show them first hand how to comprehend concepts

I have owned a business for over 17 years. I have been involved with several ministries help people understand their potential in the world. I have be a teacher of the bible for over 15 years at different locations. I am currently a senior Pastor and business owner. I have years of experience giving speeches and different presentations. Depending on the area of study, my style of teaching is to allow the subject material to be come a personal part of the student. I feel that until a student makes it his or her own, he or she will not get the full potential od that subject.
