Gina D. - Levittown, PA 19056 (4.1 mi) - Composition Tutor - $35.00/hr.
The Key for me is to Make Learning as Fun & as Easy as you can! Bc the more a student likes what he/she is learning the more he/she will want to learn! And to do that, you have to Know your student - his/her learning process. I also make a point to ask my students what they like & then I use that to make my lessons Fun & Enjoyable rather than a Chore or something they don't want to do! I also Explore Why they find a particular topic hard and then I present that same topic / subject matter in Another way to make it easier for them to understand. I have a gift of being able to see (& explain) things a different way - so I use that in my lessons. I have been tutoring since 2004 both privately and employed. I had worked at The Tutoring Center at St. Dominic's parish on Frankford Ave., in NE Phila. from 2004 until it closed in 2009. I have also tutored privately in the past and continue to do

Karen S. - Mount Holly, NJ 08060 (6.2 mi) - Composition Tutor - $32.50/hr.
I combine a variety of teaching styles to accommodate student's learning style. When it comes to GED instruction, I would say that math is my strong suit. I always try to find examples of how certain skills could be applied to real life experiences. I have experience working with students from Kindergarten through adult education. My earliest teaching experience was with primary grade children (K-2) in an inner-city school district. I taught basic skills to incarcerated men in a NJ Correctional Facility. I have experience working with first generation college students in need of remedial coursework before advancing to college level courses. I'm currently working (part-time) teaching GED writing and math, 2 evenings a week.

jon s. - Trenton, NJ 08618 (7.5 mi) - Composition Tutor - $75.00/hr.
I have been teaching writing for 30 years at LaGuardia Community College, in NYC. I have helped many students from around the world to become fine writers of the English language. I am patient and understanding. In my experience, the majority of students are highly motivated. This is, for me, the key to success. However, very often, students require assistance with a wide range of ‘remediation’ in many of life’s basic competencies: a skill set that includes such issues as time management, test taking, study habits, and, sometimes, acculturation. My teaching methodology follows these simple steps:
Step 1: Motivation
Step 2: Definition & Understanding of terms
Step 3: Explanation, exploration, discussion, debate
Step 4: Questions & Answers
Step 5: Practice: Time & Effort
Step 6: Demonstration (or proof)
I absolutely believe that motivation is required for learning. I have
