Melissa V. - Lowell, MI 49331 (29.2 mi) - Writing Tutor - $37.50/hr.
All students learn best in various ways. I create lessons for the specific needs of each student. I am a college graduate of Central Michigan University with a degree in Elementary Education, a major in science and minor in English. I have obtained 22 credits of my masters degree in Teacher Leadership for School Improvement and am 1 course away from my Reading Endorsement. I am also ESOL certified.
I am a certified teacher and experienced tutor. I have experience teaching 4th and 5th grades, all subject areas, reading intervention for 2nd and 3rd grade, and reading and math tutoring experience all the way from pre-k through 9th grade. My reading graduate courses have given me great knowledge and understanding about reading difficulties, diagnoses and solutions. My years in the classroom have given me plenty of experience with various ways of teaching math “outside the box.”

Mrrudhula P. - Ada, MI 49301 (34.1 mi) - Writing Tutor - $12.50/hr.
I usually teach by reviewing the lesson that kids don't understand, but I'm open to changing my style according to each type of student! Hi! I am a sophomore in high school and I love tutoring kids! I've done some tutoring before in my neighborhood, and at my school. They all seem to like my teaching style and all of the students I've tutored have reported better results. I do tutoring mainly because I love helping people and seeing them succeed under my guidance. Please reach out to me if you're interested!

Christopher G. - Ada, MI 49301 (34.1 mi) - Writing Tutor - $32.50/hr.
I like to get down to the assigned task and mix the class up with serious teaching and also humor to help break up the lesson. I have been living in China for 8 years and have taught every age group from 2 to 60 and every skill level from basic to TOEFL and business English. I enjoy the diversity of students and helping them improve their English abilities. Teaching one on one is the most beneficial as I can really target the students weaknesses and help them excel.

Joy D. - Belmont, MI 49306 (38.1 mi) - Writing Tutor - $35.00/hr.
I graduated from Spring Arbor University with a BA in English-Writing. Throughout my classes, I have honed the skills of writing and communicating effectively, whether it be creatively or analytically, as well as expanded my knowledge of literature by taking classes such as Shakespeare and 20th Century British Literature. I am a very well-read person who has a leaning toward classic authors such as Bronte, Dumas,and Hemingway. I completed a senior honors thesis, which was 70 pages of analyzing the works of J.R.R. Tolkien and continuing my own creative project, a novel in the making. This honors thesis received the Marsha Daigle-Williamson Award in English in May 2011. To go along with my English degree, I acquired a minor in History while at Spring Arbor University, which led to me tutoring an American History course. Along with this, I have published short storied and poems in smal

Alexa W. - Grand Rapids, MI 49525 (39.8 mi) - Writing Tutor - $25.00/hr.
I prefer a style that empowers the students to take ownership of their work so they will become better thinkers and writers. I prefer discussion-based learning opposed to "lecture-style" teaching where I can interact freely with the student as a peer-tutor. More specifically, I like to use white boards and visual aids in sessions. I have worked in Cedarville University's Writing Center as a tutor for two years. As a tutor, I conducted one-on-one sessions with college-age students to help them improve their writing and critical thinking skills. I also led several workshops on various skills required for college-level writing, such as "How to write a historical/biographical analysis" and "How to write a Marxist analysis." In addition, in training for my tutorship, I wrote a research paper on how to tutor various types of LD students, focusing on students with ADD/ADHD, dyslexia, and variou

Bridget A - Lansing, MI 48906 (18.8 mi) - Writing Tutor - $33.00/hr.
Education is one of my major passions, and I love to share my knowledge with those around me. I am available to help your child find academic success. I am patient, easy going, and considerate. Learning is not a one size fits all process and does not stop when a student leaves the class room. I believe that it is important to incorporate a student’s particular interests into the subject they are learning. I feel this increases the student’s personal involvement with the subject, thus enhancing the comprehension of the material. A student builds confidence through academic success, and it is extremely rewarding when their hard work pays off. This has been my personal experience, and I am very passionate about helping others succeed through academia. As a Michigan State graduate, I am still very passionate about education, and believe that learning does not stop when you leave the c

Anthony P - Lake Odessa, MI 48849 (22.2 mi) - Writing Tutor - $33.50/hr.
I have had many experiences in education both during and after my college education. I have been put into many situations that have required using much of the curriculum content, classroom management, and lesson plan developing skills that I have acquired. I have a major in science, but I also have extensive mathematical skills due to the many math classes I have taken for my BS and while currently pursuing a Master's Degree in Accounting. I have had the opportunity to tutor students in math, science, reading, writing, and social studies. I truly believe that as an educator you must establish a connection with your students. This not only builds a great relationship, but also helps to develop a real understanding of your students and develop the best way to teach them through differentiation and accomodations. I have learned over the years that you can't teach all students in the sa

Stefanie P - Okemos, MI 48864 (25 mi) - Writing Tutor - $37.00/hr.
I love working with younger people who have a passion for writing. From a young age I enjoyed writing and because I have invested time in learning about and working on my writing, it makes me happy to see a younger generation love it as much as I do. I hope to inspire those who write to keep with it and support them in their endeavors. I wouldn't have enrolled in writing programs had it not been for the teachers and professors who supported and encouraged me. Writing has been my way of expressing myself and I would love to bring that out in others. As a graduate of a writing and publishing Masters program at DePaul, I learned and practiced the art of writing in many genres including Non-Fiction, Poetry, Travel Writing, and others. I also took a course on Teaching Literature, where I learned about pedagogy and what it takes to teach literature to students. Throughout my undergraduate and
