Amelia G. - Nashville, TN 37215 (21.4 mi) - Communications Tutor - $45.00/hr.
As a tutor, I find that it is important to present the material to the students in a way that they can relate to. My job as an educator is to teach them how to learn it and make them want to learn it. I personally do not believe that negative reinforcement is beneficial. Positive responses to students are extremely valuable, even if they may occasionally give the wrong answer. This will give them the motivation to do well. My philosophy is that teaching is part knowledge, part communication, and part intuition. My intuition is necessary to understand where a student is getting stuck. I myself already understand the material; the challenge is to understand why a student does not. A variety of communicative teaching approaches is best. I have learned that different students respond to visual, auditory, or tactile methods. As always, continuous practice is extremely important. I also must

Ricky H. - Nashville, TN 37221 (23.7 mi) - Communications Tutor - $32.50/hr.
I am currently completing my final year at Vanderbilt Law School. Over the past three years, I have taught a class and provided one-on-one tutoring for students preparing to take the LSAT. I also taught an upper level course while in grad school (it was in radio production). While I was in undergrad, I spent time tutoring elementary and middle school aged children over the internet. All together, I have helped dozens of individual students in a private setting and nearly a hundred students in the classroom.
Personally, I love numbers and have always been very comfortable with math. But my grades and test scores have always been just as strong in other subjects, and I am confident that I can help you or your child in any of the areas listed below.

Joseph D. - Brentwood, TN 37027 (26.1 mi) - Communications Tutor - $27.50/hr.
I've been an informal tutor for as long as I can remember. I've tutored my peers and my juniors in English grammar, spelling, vocabulary, writing, composition, essay, formal reports, reading comprehension, and anything else involved in English. I also have formally studied Japanese and tutored in that.
Formally, I have worked as an ESL teacher for The Salvation Army. I've been both a classroom teacher and a one-on-one teacher with my students. It's all about you, the students. We all learn differently, so I like to tailor my style to the person I'm teaching. Let me know what you want to learn, and I'll work with you to get the best result.
The only requirement I have is that I want you to care. If you come to me, you have to work. I'm not a ogre, but I won't let you come to me and not try to learn.

Jasmine W - Goodlettsville, TN 37072 (4.2 mi) - Communications Tutor - $34.00/hr.
Throughout my life I have been tutoring and teaching my peers. In elementary through high school, teachers would ask me to take time to explain one-on-one the coursework with my classmates. In college I naturally became the go-to person for help with coursework. My official experience, however, did not come until I was in graduate school. There I taught laboratory sections in animal and dairy science as well as tutored my classmates after hours. There is nothing that I enjoy more than figuring out how to convey information in such a way that my pupil will begin to really understand what they are doing and even be able to explain it back to me. Although I have approximately two years of official teaching experience, it has been a lifelong endeavor for me and one that I hope to continue to pursue. My style of teaching is one that strives to bring an overall understanding of the impor

Deborah R - Nashville, TN 37216 (13.2 mi) - Communications Tutor - $38.50/hr.
Teaching is not a job to me; teaching is a calling that places a responsibility on me to provide my students with the tools they each need for success. I consistently design my lesson plans based on Tennessee State Academic Standards--making high stakes assessment items a priority. When creating lesson plans, I use multiple assessments to evaluate students' comprehension of the material presented; use a variety of research-based methods, activities, and materials to present new information; and integrate intructional experiences that mirror students' real life to better help them relate to the material. As an award-winning writer, my track record offers you a fresh perspective on how students can tap into their critical thinking to better prepare them for Tennessee Comprehensive Assessment Program (TCAP) tests as well as other real world writing skills necessary to be responsible citizen

Regina M - Nashville, TN 37218 (13.6 mi) - Communications Tutor - $35.50/hr.
As a student, I was promoted from hostess to assistant controller of a restaurant within the period of one year and prior to graduation from the community college. I have over 20 years experience working in accounting and the last 12 of those years as the supervisor of the accounting department in roles titled accounting manager and controller. I have always hired new graduates and mentored them through their first accounting jobs. I have also encouraged each employer to pay their interns and have trained them as well. I'm patient and understanding the complexities of accounting and the ensuing panic that it sometimes causes. In my experience the fundamental reason people need tutoring boils down to a failure to truly understand the concept of the debit and credit. I always begin by reviewing these concepts and ensuring that the student/intern fully understands the logic behind the

Marc D - Hermitage, TN 37076 (17.1 mi) - Communications Tutor - $42.00/hr.
I hold two bachelor's degrees from Mississippi State University. Both degrees were award under an International Business Major. I have taught German labs at the University level and can teach math whether geometry, trigonometry, algebra or pre-calculus. My teaching style is facilitative. I ask a lot of questions and require my students to practice a minimum of 3 examples in front of me for every technique I explain. I have a fun style and enjoy watching the confidence grow in my pupils. The only child that ever lost interest in what I had to say was my own. :)

Andrea R - Gallatin, TN 37066 (17.3 mi) - Communications Tutor - $38.50/hr.
I have been teaching and tutoring students of all ages for the last ten years. Having graduated with a BA in English, I have learned much about writing and the writing process that I believe could help students at all levels. I have tutored students in English, reading, science, social studies, math, music, and French. It has been said that no one rises to low expectations. I believe that every child CAN learn, but that the process of teaching each child must vary depending on their learning style. Tutoring gives teachers the unique advantage of having students one on one, and allows us to truly discover what methods work best for those students.

Sabron R - Nashville, TN 37209 (17.9 mi) - Communications Tutor - $34.50/hr.
While in college, I have worked with numerous tutoring programs both paid and volunteering. I worked for two years as a tutor mentor for the Upward Bound Program, where I managed a group of 12 college students that tutored and mentored 75 low-income and first generation students in grades 9-12. Also while in college, I have have had the opportunity to work closely with numerous Metro Public Schools around the Nashville area. Currently I am working with the Martha O'Bryan Center at a Reading Achievement Program Tutor. I believe that each child has its own learning style, therefore as a tutor you must be able to adapt quickly to the specific needs to every child. I think that the most important thing in tutoring is gaining the attention and confidence that you know what you are doing and talking about. I also live by the belief that repetition is the father of learning.

Nathaniel S - Nashville, TN 37212 (18.3 mi) - Communications Tutor - $34.00/hr.
Because I have an extensive background in Psychology, I have a strong understanding of the learning process, as well as many other factors that affect it. I focus on each individual child's strengths and use that to bring their weaknesses up to a higher level. Through patience and encouragement, I believe that most children can experience dramatic improvements in their abilities. I am able to explain complex ideas clearly, in simple terms that are understandable. Then I expand on what the child already understands until they have mastered the more advanced concepts. I greatly enjoy the excitement, challenge, and reward of enriching a child's life through education. I have a Bachelor's Degree in Psychology from Southern Illinois University. This gives me a broad knowledge base in many educational arenas. I have tutoring experience with the program "Second Chance Saturdays" for high
