Kelly W - Bella Vista, AR 72715 (15.1 mi) - World History Tutor - $34.50/hr.
As I am a current Ph.D. student in English Literature, I have an immense interest in education--not only my own education but also the education of others. As I have been working on my two graduate degrees--an MA and a Ph.D in English Literature--I have been fully invested in preparing myself to become a teacher of English, literature, and composition. My BA and MA degrees are both in English Literature, and I am currently in the final stages of my Ph.D. work; therefore, I have a sophisticated knowledge of the English language, and my six years of teaching at the college level have made me a competent teacher of all concerns related to reading and writing. Additionally, I have worked as a tutor since 2001 in a variety of subject matters, but more recently in the field of English. I currently am a tutor at the University of Arkansas' Quality Writing Center. Here, I work to help students,

Carla K - Bentonville, AR 72712 (24.4 mi) - World History Tutor - $60.00/hr.
I have enjoyed substitute teaching since 1991; it was a part- time occupation that worked well as I re-entered the college scene in order to advance my AA degree to a BA in Political Science. Life and destiny urged me to earn a teacher's certification in Texas, where I later worked as an ESL 4th-5th grade teacher in the Waco (Texas) Independent School District for three years. A move to Kentucky to be closer to my aging mother resulted in six years of working as the Adair County School District's Gifted and Talented Coordinator and ESL/ELL Coordinator. I have recently married and my husband and I manage and run a horse ranch while I substitute teach. My background is myriad, including writing and freelance tutoring. My teaching style is highly creative to borderline eccentric! I have extensive training in the various learning styles and instinctively target the student's learning st

Lars K - Monett, MO 65708 (25.5 mi) - World History Tutor - $37.00/hr.
My goal in teaching is to provide the student with the tools to discover and learn new concepts and to apply this knowledge to the learning process. I do not beleive in giving answers, but rather helping the student learn how to find the answers. I am very patient and will go over a concept until it is understood by the student. I enjoy children who are eager to learn, but try to instill a desire to acheive. As an administrator of a school I oversaw the education of children from Kindergarten through twelfth grade. I have eight years experience teaching algebra I, five years teaching business math. I have eleven years experience teaching English grammar from third grade through twelfth grade. I have taught fourth grade for three years, fifth grade for three years and sixth grade for two years.

Edmund R - rogers, AR 72758 (27.5 mi) - World History Tutor - $41.50/hr.
For me, teaching is a calling, a passion, something you have to love. After a successful career in private industry I was unhappy and missing something. After some soul-searching I realized my dream and became a teacher. I feel that the teacher should help facilitate the learning experience for the student. I believe in setting the bar high and helping the student reach their full potential. My teaching style involves a variety of model to best fit the learning style of the student. It has been my experience that tying in what you learn about into the world today and applying that knowledge is key to student engagement. I became a teacher after 10 years in the private sector. I taught in California in the Westminster School District for 12 years (2 as a substitute/non-contract and 10 under contract). My subjects have included language arts, social science, and U.S. History. I have develo

Angela W - Columbus, KS 66725 (35.5 mi) - World History Tutor - $35.50/hr.
I am a graduate from Pittsburg State University with a Bachelor Degree in Psychology and about to graduate in May 2011 with another Bachelor degree in Recreational Therapy. I was valedictorian in my high school and graduated in the top 10% of my class in college. In addition to that I have 5 years of Spanish I have taken in high school and college and recently went to Oaxaca, Mexico on a study abroad trip for 3 weeks. I have three years of experience working with children and teaching them social skills, daily living skills, helping them with their homework whenever they need it, and I love to learn. I like to work with children of all types. I think that anybody has the capability to learn if they really want to. Everybody learns in a different way and I am willing to work with them any way I can. I am very patient, laid back, and willing to try new ways to help children accomplis

Leslie C - Fayetteville, AR 72704 (39.3 mi) - World History Tutor - $34.50/hr.
I firmly believe that every student can learn, given the proper environment and instruction. I make it a point to listen to my students and try to see intellectual confusion and impasses from their viewpoint so that I can teach them in a way that makes sense to them and allows them to fully understand the concept I am trying to relay. Tutoring is a learning process for both me and my students, and I am dedicated to seeing my students through it. I am patient and want to see my students succeed in their studies and am willing to alter my teaching style based on the needs of my students in order to help them achieve their goals. Throughout college, I held myself to a high educational standard, and maintained a 3.92 GPA. I majored in music, minored in chemistry, and completed extensive coursework in the math and science areas. Since graduation, I have worked in the chemical field, and p

Mitchell S - Fayetteville, AR 72703 (39.6 mi) - World History Tutor - $34.50/hr.
While in attendance at the University of Arkansas, I earned two degrees, a B.A. in Political Science and a B.A. in American Studies. In addition to these degrees, I also earned a minor in History. As I was completing my undergraduate degree, I participated in varsity athletics, maintained a part-time job, was active in student government, and volunteered through AAO. I am capable of aiding in history, geometry, algebra, and other basic courses. I love to help children learn all that they possibly can because I feel that a quality education is the great equalizer. I am easy-going, task-oriented, and very passionate about helping those who may be having trouble in learning something.

Adam C - Fayetteville, AR 72703 (39.8 mi) - World History Tutor - $39.00/hr.
Though I have not had any experience teaching in any school system in the United States, when I was a Peace Corps volunteer in Ukraine I taught both American history and American literature to high school aged students. I have a B.A. in history from the University of Arkansas and have had a great deal of experience working with youths as well. Currently I am in the Master's degree program at the University of Arkansas and have had experiences in researching, writing, and presenting my papers at conference. I will be graduating next semester and am currently applying to PhD. programs. As a teacher in Ukraine, I was not there to replace the normal history and literature teachers. Instead, I supplemented their lessons and focused on developing critical thinking skills and stressed one on one interactions with the students. With history, the real teaching comes not in the memorization o

Michael L - Fayetteville, AR 72701 (41.3 mi) - World History Tutor - $39.50/hr.
I have tried to apply a balance of patience and diligence to my teaching. I am always hoping for maximum results but, realize that learning is up to the individual and each person has a different learning experience. Being sincerely interested in a student's progress and success has no substitute. It is one of the most powerful resources a person has as a teacher. I graduated from Henderson State University with a BA degree in sociology and since then I have worked in residential treatment facilities as a therapist, a teacher, and tutor or councelor. I am currently a CASA volunteer in Fayetteville, assisting children who need advocacy in the court system. I have been a freelance writer here in Fayetteville for many years and have had much of my writing published. I feel that I have a strog set of unique skills to offer to this position and I would appreciate the opportunity to talk furt
