Wendy P. - Okemos, MI 48864 (16.4 mi) - ACT Tutor - $22.50/hr.
I have taught a large array of children and adults, anywhere from a 2nd grader struggling with reading to adult Burmese refugees. I have the patience and flexibility to successfully work with anyone. I started tutoring when I was around the age of 13. I taught a young Korean girl English, where I would have to create my own lesson plans. While I attended Okemos high school, I partook in volunteering experiences that dealt with tutoring. For two years, I was placed at an elementary school where I would tutor 1st-5th graders biweekly with anything from basic math to practice with reading. I built strong connections with the children, which I could use to better their learning. At Michigan State University, I spent a semester tutoring at the Boys and Girls club of Lansing. I helped in any kind of homework the children had, and was flexible in helping the supervisor with any other needs that

Teagan D. - Ann Arbor, MI 48103 (25.7 mi) - ACT Tutor - $17.50/hr.
I am most experienced with young high school students but am willing to teach younger as well as older if the student feels I am qualified. I am very relaxed, yet organized: open, yet serious. Generally, I am very flexible to any student's learning style and will change my techniques to fit each accordingly. I am an eighteen year old female with with a High School Diploma and one year of University behind me. I graduated High School before I was seventeen and a half, one semester early when I was already a young student for my year. As a young teen, I was always a tutor to my friends and was willing and excited to help anyone with any academic difficulties. With time, I took tutoring more seriously and began to be a voluntary math tutor for the Math Department where I was enrolled, Community High School. I did this in my only semester of my senior year and tutored underclassman in everyw

Fatos K. - Ann Arbor, MI 48104 (28.7 mi) - ACT Tutor - $39.00/hr.
My teaching philosophy centers around encouraging student learning instead of straightforward lecturing. While training students during these years my approach has reflected the discovery that the process of leading students to the correct answer is more effective than lecturing them the answer. I employ various exercises, continuously look for examples outside the discipline, and generally avoid over-reliance on scientific jargon. For example, I once compared the rise of white blood cells fighting an invading pathogen to the way a governor may activate city guards upon suspecting infiltration by spies – a metaphor that may tap into student knowledge of video game scenarios. One student told me that the comparison was more helpful than pages of detailed description of the mechanism of the pathogen invasion and human response. Originally I am from Albania. I graduated from Molecular Biolo

Samantha B. - Waterford, MI 48329 (32 mi) - ACT Tutor - $30.00/hr.
Three years of experience in writing and editing as a staff member at the Grand Valley Lanthorn, a student-run newspaper at GVSU. I began as an intern and held various writing and editing jobs throughout my tenure, ultimately departing as editor in chief. My writing has been recognized on the national and statewide level by the American Collegiate Press and the Michigan Press Association. I recently graduated with a B.A. in journalism. My experience as a newspaper editor helped me to develop a collaborative teaching style. I want to work with students to understand their questions and help them work through them and arrive at the conclusions on their own. I have a non-intimidating teaching style and want my students to walk away from the sessions not only understanding the answers to their questions, but also be able to apply that knowledge in future situations.

Karen B. - Lapeer, MI 48446 (41.9 mi) - ACT Tutor - $55.00/hr.
I have a deep passion for learning, and it's always my goal not only to help students learn skills but to find their inner motivation too. I currently work as a substitute teacher, and I appreciate the chance I have to see the best of what teachers and paraprofessionals are using in the classroom and how they help their students. I have much experience students of all ages with their homework and projects as a nanny, babysitter, and older sister of four. I was also a certified therapeutic riding instructor, so I taught individuals with disabilities to ride horses.
I was a top student myself, and I have a B.A. in English with a minor in history. I attended graduate school for writing and editing. I currently work for an equestrian travel television show, writing and editing quality articles for the website. I believe that learning is so much better and more effective when you enjoy the

Margaret H - Whitmore Lake, MI 48189 (20.9 mi) - ACT Tutor - $41.50/hr.
I believe that many students do not know how to study, and are unsure of where to begin. This is especially true for students entering college, or high school, who never really had to study before. As a tutor, it is my job to help the student break down the material into manageable parts and teach them to identify what is important, and how to get organized. The role of a tutor is to not give you the answers, but to help you get the answers on your own. I can show you how to problem solve, and help with test stress. I am available most evenings, and anytime on the weekends. I am also a member of the International Tutoring Association, and feel free to view my profile on LinkedIn at: http://www.linkedin.com/in/margaretholda I graduated from MSU in 2001 with a degree in Int'l Relations and Business. In 2007 I returned to school. During that time I took all the pre-reqs for the Accelerate

Gregory D - Milford, MI 48381 (21.7 mi) - ACT Tutor - $42.50/hr.
I have a BA in History from UM, which, of course, entailed not just learning and researching history, but also tremendous amounts of writing papers on a myriad of topics. I am currently a law student at Wayne State, and so am also well versed in legal and social issues, as well as, once again, lots of writing and grammar. I also have a background teaching and tutoring 100's of students how to prepare for the SAT, ACT, GRE, GMAT and LSAT examinations. Teaching has always been a passion of mine. I know that much of my success has been a result of learning from great dynamic teachers who really cared about me as a student and as a person. I believe that teaching is done best by adapting to the student, finding common ground, and then relating that connection to the topic in question. I would love to help your student find these connections and learn to be enjoy the process of education
