Terunda D. - Greer, SC 29651 (9.9 mi) - High School Journalism Tutor - $60.00/hr.
Education, teaching in particular, gives individuals the opportunity to give back what they have received. It is communication on a broader level than just simply putting forth information to whomever chooses to accept it. I started my career in education before I set foot on a college campus, through a peer-tutoring program in my high school. This experience allowed me to work with severely disabled peers learning functional skills for independence. Since then I have worked as an aide in emotional/behavior and multiple-disability middle school classrooms, as well as LD-resource, ED self contained and SC occupational diploma program. In addition I have earned a degree of distinction with the National Forensic League, been name a scholar-athlete in South Carolina and a host of other accolades in scholarship. I have experienced both urban and suburban school settings and have had inc

Sarah H - Greenville, SC 29605 (2.1 mi) - High School Journalism Tutor - $38.50/hr.
As a graduate of a prestigious University, I was challenged to get into the competitive program and motivated to earn a bachelors degree in the field of Graphic Design. I have always had a passion for art and literature. I have always excelled at writing and pushed myself to obtain a Minor in English. This greatly improved my grammatical skills, vocabulary, and time management skills. During the last seven years I have tutored students and peers in English. I have plans to attend college to obtain a MAT in the future in the hopes to become an English or History teacher. I love teaching and am passionate about literature and art. I believe that all children have the ability to learn, and it's a teacher's responsibility to engage each student in the subject matter. I am patient, organized, and caring.

I am a knowledgeable, experienced and well-trained educator. Students appreciate me because I am firm but fair and down to earth.
Co-workers and administrators have described me as caring and creative. I have become highly effective in teaching strategies during 25 years of teaching.
My formal education began in New York. At the time, writing was my first love, yet I had a strong desire to teach as well. I combined both passions by majoring in English with an Education minor, and earned my B.A. in 1984.
I began my teaching career in New York and after relocating to South Carolina in 1998.
I completed a Masters degree in Education at Columbia College, 2002. My teaching style is one where I combine the approach that best suits the individual’s personal learning style with proven sound educational best practices. I have had successes with motivating students who usually do not l

Jenna T - Greenville, SC 29607 (3.1 mi) - High School Journalism Tutor - $38.00/hr.
I love English, and am comfortable with literary theory, paper writing, literary research, and topic evaluation. I like to share this passion with my students and show them ways to relate to the material they are studying. I enjoy helping others learn and showing them how to use their abilities to excel. I am easy to get along with and encourage students to view learning as fun and interesting. I am able to explain things in a variety of ways depending on the student's personality, age and learning style. I hope to share learning techniques that students can take with them in the future.

I have experience working with students of diverse ages and backgrounds, and enjoy helping these students excel in their education.

Yvette K - taylors, SC 29687 (4.7 mi) - High School Journalism Tutor - $39.00/hr.
ESSAYS, PAPERS, RESUMES
I have a passion for helping high school and college students learn how to write effective essays, papers, and resumes. Not only can I help with a specific paper, I will help you learn the tools for developing a clear, organized, articulate writing style. I help students realize that writing is fun and that everyone can learn to express themselves in a positive organized way. I call it helping you find your voice. I believe each student has good ideas, and my goal is to help them effectively express their ideas. Everyone can learn to love writing. In college, I studied Public Speaking and Journalism, both of which require extensive writing skills. I was an inter-collegiate debater, which also requires excellent communication skills. For the last 18 years, I have been writing magazine articles, ads, children's stories, and corporate writing. I have excellent gr

Tracy L - Easley, SC 21030 (12.1 mi) - High School Journalism Tutor - $33.00/hr.
I enjoy helping students build on their strengths and overcome weaknesses in writing. I believe the key to a stimulating composition stems from the interest the writer has in the subject. Equally important is technical aspect of writing. Using a subject of interest to apply the rules of writing is the best way to shake writer's block and increase a student's comfort in English composition. I recently finished my BS in English Literature at Towson University in Maryland. In the years I spent at Towson, I built a portfolio to include samples of my writing. I am interested in helping others build their writing skills to communicate creatively and effectively.

Craig B - Moore, SC 29369 (15.9 mi) - High School Journalism Tutor - $39.00/hr.
I set high expectations for my students, and I set high expectations for myself. My strongest assets are my patience and ability to convey difficult subject matter to variant learning styles. I evaluate each student as a unique learner and measure success through achievement of desired outcomes. My students are successful because I prepare efficiently, deliver instruction professionally, and I believe in their ability to achieve their personal goals. I use positive reinforcement to propel the learning process. When students reach their goals, I have succeeded. With a BA in English Literature from the University of South Carolina and an MA in English Education from the University of South Florida, I have 10 years experience teaching English Language/Writing Skills to secondary students, college students, executives, company representatives, and military contractors.
