Neetu P. - Berlin, CT 06037 (16.4 mi) - GED Tutor - $40.00/hr.
As a tutor my strength lies in supporting, motivating and encouraging students along with teaching them the importance of discipline and staying focused on studies. I have noticed that for some students the actual problem is not the subject/curriculum, they need help with time management and study skills. I try to teach students how to learn better and faster by managing their time efficiently and by organizing how they study. Hi! I am a certified math teacher with 20 years of experience working with students from elementary school through college. I have a Master's degree in Mathematics and a Master's degree in Education also. I am very comfortable teaching all different age groups and enjoy working with students one-on-one. One-on-one teaching helps me understand their strengths and weaknesses. I try to listen to my students' needs and evaluate that first, and then based on that I prov

William F. - Bethpage, NY 11714 (52.3 mi) - GED Tutor - $22.50/hr.
In tutoring any of the traditional subjects (Latin, Greek, formal/informal logic, rhetoric, critical thinking), I emphasize the objectives common to them all: (1) acquisition of context-specific vocabulary, (2) a feel for the flexibility and polysemy of a given word's lexical-semantic meaning, (3) a comprehension of the text's thematic, stylistic, and evaluative undertones and progression. The three, taken together, require us to formulate arguments by sifting through material, with an eye to analysis on how texts are crafted for presentation in terms of form and content. The result is an understanding on how these three are essential for reading, arguing, and, ultimately, thinking critically.
Subjects Tutored:
Besides the aforementioned subjects, I also tutor for calculus and chemistry. I earned my B.A. from Tulane University magna cum laude in classical languages and philosophy. I

Frank S - North Haven, CT 06473 (10 mi) - GED Tutor - $44.00/hr.
I have four semesters of calculus, numerous chemistry, physics, engineering, computer science, statistics, finance, accounting, marketing, management, and liberal arts courses. I also have a temporary CT teaching certificate for secondary education math. I believe any student is capable of learning any subject when they are taught in a gentle and patient manner. It is important to help the student gain confidence with the subject and to build his self-esteem. As the student increases his knowledge and problem-solving abilities his confidence and curiosity will also increase. Learning will become a lifetime pursuit.

Kelly N - New Haven, CT 06510 (11.4 mi) - GED Tutor - $45.00/hr.
I love teaching people of all ages. My easy going demeanor and enthusiastic attitude have allowed me to make a strong connection with all my students. This connection is crucial because I have a what I believe is a traditional teaching style which emphasizes organization and analytical skills through constant and sustained practice. By connecting with my students and treating them as individuals, I foster the sense of responsibility required to follow through and become a successful student in any subject. As an undergraduate at NYU, I earned that extra spending money by tutoring Latin. As my customer base grew, I branched out into mathematics and general study skills. After college I went to Europe to earn an MA in Linguistics. Upon return, I immediately began a PhD program, and I used my previous experience in a number of side jobs teaching English as a second language. Over the

Marcia G - Cheshire, CT 06410 (13.9 mi) - GED Tutor - $47.50/hr.
My teaching style is primarily geared toward errorless teaching, and giving the student many opportunities to respond. It is very important that the student practice sufficiently without making errors, supported by prompts that are faded as material is learned. I meet the learner at his current level, and then progress in small increments, testing frequently for mastery. In this way, it becomes very apparent what skills need the most attention, and frustration is avoided. I love helping students see that they can be successful learners. I strive to provide an atmosphere that is positive, interesting, and fun. In college, I double-majored in math and economics, and my SAT scores were 700 math/ 700 verbal. My GRE verbal score was 760. I have eight years of professional experience working with regular education and special educational students from preschool through the upper elementar

Cheryl A - Orange, CT 06477 (16.6 mi) - GED Tutor - $37.50/hr.
I came into education as a career later in life. I have never experienced such a rewarding career. Due to my love for this profession and working with children I have recently starting pursuing my teaching certification. I believe that every child should have the opportunity in school to meet their potential and achieve academic success in schools. Many times this requires assistance outside of the classroom setting. I am patient, easygoing and encouraging to my students. I also feel that every child learns differently so I take an unstructured approach and open approach to learning. My main goal is to make a difference in a child's life and help them to succeed and feel confident in school. I have been working as a Special Education Teaching Assistant for the past 5 years. A good portion of my job is working one on one with children outside of the classroom. I have experience in a varie

Roland F - Prospect, CT 06712 (17 mi) - GED Tutor - $41.00/hr.
After over decade of classroom teaching and preceding experiences teaching as a manager, I have developed a style that would be considered eclectic, at once rooted in the cognitive behavioral and infused with existentialist expectations. The key element is to reach each unique individual, assessing strengths and weaknesses, and facilitate an atmosphere in which students can find personal success while engaging the group dynamic. I spend a great deal of time examining just what it is I am doing as an educator, how I feel about outcomes and how I can adjust curriculum, practices, and in my case, administrative functioning to better serve my charges.
Existing educational practices in no small way determine the modes and methods one uses to engage learners in and out of the classroom. However, teaching style and empathetic relationships to a great extent determine how students are engag

Emily D - New Haven, CT 22903 (17.3 mi) - GED Tutor - $35.50/hr.
My career in secondary education began in high school, when I was hired to tutor beginning Spanish students from local middle schools. As an undergraduate at Randolph-Macon College, I continued to tutor as a faculty-appointed employee of the college's Higgins Academic Center. There I coached my fellow students in Spanish, writing, and Art History. After graduation I accepted a position as a Spanish instructor at Trinity Episcopal School, an excellent independent secondary school in Richmond, VA. During my three years at Trinity, I taught Spanish at all levels (from beginning through Advanced Placement) and was mentored by truly inspiring foreign-language teachers. I returned to school to earn a Masters degree in Spanish Literature, and there I served as a Graduate Instructor of Spanish courses from beginning through advanced intermediate.

Tracy S - Waterbury, CT 06705 (19 mi) - GED Tutor - $46.00/hr.
I love teaching because helping a student finally understand something he or she has been struggling with is very rewarding. Through patience, understanding and creativity, I feel students of all ages can overcome any academic subject they are having difficulty with. I believe that working one-on-one with a child or a teenager delivers an easy going atmosphere where the pupil feels free to ask any question. I believe in making teaching fun through hands-on lessons so students learn to desire education, and not fear it. I am the first and only person in my family to graduate from college. Growing up, I saw how difficult life can be when one lacks formal education. I was determined to learn as much as I possibly could and landed scholarships to pay my way through undergraduate school. I graduate in three years by taking overloads. I then pursued my MA because I loved being in the classroom
