Olivia E. - Osseo, MN 55369 (33 mi) - Poetry Tutor - $24.50/hr.
I am currently a Sociology student at Augsburg College. I am also pursuing a minor in Psychology. This year will be my last, so I will graduate in 2014. Also, I have taken several creative writing courses at the Loft Literary center, as well as at my College. I received a 4.0 in my courses. Also, in high school, I was always a level above in all English and composition classes. I like to challenge people to think outside of the box. Although I know it is important to know how to take tests and write papers appropriately, I also know that showing skills that go above and beyond, is what makes a student stand out. I will challenge your mind but in a way that will help to see the bigger picture out of the details, and will also help to shape you into a well-rounded, thoughtful individual.

Laura M. - Stillwater, MN 55082 (37.9 mi) - Poetry Tutor - $32.50/hr.
My teaching style is relaxed, yet rigorous. I expect students to work hard and achieve their goals. I utilize a variety of teaching styles in order to fit individual student learning styles, and I design lessons with creativity and a focus on real life applications.

In addition, I have worked in publications and taught desktop publishing and writing at the high school and college level, and have worked directly as a managing editor for college publications.

Patricia J - Ramsey, MN 55303 (24.4 mi) - Poetry Tutor - $60.00/hr.
For the past thirty years, I have used my BS from Bemidji State Univeristy and my Masters of Education from St. Mary's as a secondary English/Reading teacher. The predominance of my experience is in middle school, but I have many years in high school as well. In both Texas, where I began my career, and in Minnesota the focus of my teaching mission has always been to guide each student to a skill level of reading comprehension and written expression that would not only prove mastery for the state testing requirements, but allow each student to excel in his chosen field. Passing minimum competency tests is important, but it is a short-term goal; I strive to help students learn to love using our language to enhance their lives. Since I do not believe that proving one's self by test scores is the same as being educated, my classroom is a place of fun, laughter and enjoyment of the role sto

Marit H - Champlin, MN 55316 (28.8 mi) - Poetry Tutor - $39.50/hr.
Being overwhelmed with information that is just not making sense can be frustrating and most teachers don't have the time to give individual attention to each student. Ever student has different needs and I can help them focus on areas they doesn't understand as well as others. I can also show students that studying can be fun. I have teaching and tutoring experience at the high school and college level. I love expanding their minds and sharing my knowledge with them. I will be a graduate of the University of Wisconsin Superior in just a few short weeks with my degree in English and Communications. I will be moving to Champlin just after the first of the year and am looking to continue tutoring.

Nancy H - Champlin, MN 55316 (29.6 mi) - Poetry Tutor - $45.00/hr.
I am an accountant by occupation, and my tutoring experience is primarily as a volunteer, because I love learning and helping others to learn. I gave beginning piano and music theory instruction to a student who went on to become a professional flutist. I also taught beginning piano and music theory lessons to my neighbor's son, who went on to learn violin and recently guest conducted at his high school orchestra concert. As a volunteer at the New Brighton Community Education Center, I provided weekly Basic Reading and ESL tutoring. As a long-time volunteer for the Center for Victims of Torture, I assisted clients with filling out job and other applications and with practice in conversational English. My teaching style is mentoring, or sharing of knowledge, in combination with promoting the understanding of consequences. I strongly believe that learning can and should be an enjoyabl

Ahna G - Foley, MN 56329 (34.3 mi) - Poetry Tutor - $32.50/hr.
I worked as a camp counselor for 3 summers, and understand that everyone has different learning styles. Personally, I am a visual learner, and I understand that when teaching lessons it is important to incorporate all aspects of learning: touch, sound, visuals, etc. I am energetic and creative and would rather do hands-on activities to drive the lesson home than to sit and memorize lists forever. Since I have a deep understanding of the English language from my Greek studies, I can help students remember the meanings of words with creative mnemonic devices. My college classmates appreciated my input when it came to test time! Attending a private liberal arts college taught me to push myself to be the very best I could be. I earned a Bachelor of Arts in Classics with an emphasis on Greek, and a minor in English. I tutored for a January term Beginning Greek class, as well as whenever stude

Tina L - New Hope, MN 55428 (36.9 mi) - Poetry Tutor - $48.50/hr.
I am a firm believer in a student-centered setting with an emphasis on differentiation and rigor. Each student has a different learning style and a specific skill they excel at. I am very empathetic with interpersonal skills and can use the skills students excel at as an advantage to advance others and help a student discover their own potential for learning. I also believe that personal experience determines the way a student is going to relate to the material, so my goal is to promote ways to relate to it and get students excited about finding self-efficacy. While working on my Bachelors, I volunteered in eight schools working one on one with students, small groups, and classroom settings for language arts. I also student taught junior high language arts. I received numerous teacher of the week recognition when I taught after school art classes. Since graduation, I have been a subs

Nick K - Roseville, MN 55113 (37.9 mi) - Poetry Tutor - $37.00/hr.
I will graduate from the College of Saint John’s University this spring with a major in English Education. Classes I have taken at CSB/SJU include extensive English and Education courses and a continuation of Spanish education. I worked as a paid English tutor during my 4-year college career through Upward Bound Tutoring program. I fell in love with helping middle school and high school aged youth in a small group and one on one setting. I find my favorite moments of education to be in a one-on-one or small group setting. I hope to find more of those memories at your institution.
I also participated in a summer internship in Katmandu, Nepal. I worked with the Whitefield School, teaching grammar, sentence structure and a writing workshop. I am in the Education field to make a difference in student’s lives. I hope to do this through instruction and example. I believe these two elements in

Ambre C - Minneapolis, MN 55413 (38 mi) - Poetry Tutor - $37.50/hr.
I have a very communicative teaching style with languages, where it is important for the student to hear and speak the language as much as possible to learn it better. I also actively teach memory tricks (mnemonic devices, songs, etc) to help with memorization.
I am very patient. I am always working to find ways to teach to students with different abilities, in my own classroom, as well as during my year's experience as a teaching assistant in a Special Education department of a local high school. I am a licensed MN French teacher. I speak near-native French. I taught ELL to French children and adults in Paris for 4 years, and in the US have taught ELL and French to kids from the ages of 5-18, and also have taught adults in community education programs.
I am happy to work with your student to target speaking, writing, memorizing vocabulary, understanding grammar... I offer the advan

Vandee Y - Saint Paul, MN 55130 (40.1 mi) - Poetry Tutor - $35.50/hr.
I am currently a Licensed Dental Assistant with a Bachelor degree in Pre-dental and Biology. My degrees have allowed me to gain an understanding in many areas of science and grammatical skills due to writing research papers, laboratory reports and literature reviews. As a licensed dental assistant, I educate patients on personal oral hygiene instructions and post-op instructions for major treatments.
In the past, I have taught Sunday school to children between the ages of 5 yrs-9yrs. I have tutored students in English and sciences. I enjoy educating children and providing them the resources to promote their academic understandings. I believe that patience, experience and communication is the greatest key in teaching children. I understand that each child learns a subject through a different style than another child. Therefore, I take the time to know the child as an individual student
