Laurie H. - Chico, CA 95926 (7.2 mi) - Tutor - $21.50/hr.
I have been teaching all my life. Last year, I lived in Prague, Czech Republic, and taught English to students aged five through adult. They included children, accountants, analysts, engineers, energy experts, and lawyers. I've also taught swimming lessons to individual students and group classes for over ten years. I have a Master's in Creative Writing and poetry, and I have worked as a freelance writer, editor, proofreader, and teacher for many years. I love teaching and the diverse students I meet. I love working one on one with a student. Wherever the student needs help or wants improvement, that is where I meet them. I'm very patient and extremely friendly, and I am determined to help a student understand in any way I can! I also think cookies help studying :) Sometimes, unusual methods like movie clips, cartoons, reading passages, or other "real-life" experiences help to solidify a

ken k - chico, CA 95926 (5.4 mi) - Tutor - $46.00/hr.
I feel after all these wonderful years that I can assist any student who wants to learn as well as those who think they don't. My style depends sometimes on each indiviual's need. As a classroom teacher and a tutor I have experienced tremendous success due to the fact that I am always at work and always early, I thrive on education and wathcing children develop,and nobody on Earth loves teaching much more than I do.
My style of teaching is direct,often humorous and always replete with review and reiteration. I am always energetic and motivated to help any student anytime. I have been an elementary school teacher for nearly 18 years. I taught for 7 years in Elk Creek and 10 years in Los Molinos where I currently teach 2nd and 3rd grade. I earned Glenn County Teacher of the Year in 1998 and Tehama County Teacher of the Year in 2007.
I was also named Glenn County Teacher of the Week

Jeffrey P - Chcio, CA 95926 (5.8 mi) - Tutor - $41.00/hr.
Having earned degrees in PE, Exercise Science, Exercise Physiology and Biomechanics I have a strong science background in subjects such as Biology, Anatomy, Physiology, Kinetics, Biomechanics, Cellular Biology, Physics and Chemistry. In turn many of these subjects require knowledge of advanced mathmatical formulas and statistics. Therefore I am also very strong in math. I have published many articles as well as scientific research which emphasizes my skills in writing and grammar and again supports my knowledge of statistical analysis.
Institutions for which I have taught are CSU Chico, Butte College, Yuba College and The American College Of Sports Medicine. All in all I have well over ten years experience teaching at an advanced level. My teaching style would be that of Guided Discovery. This is a highly interactive style which leads the student to uncover the answer themselves as op

ADNAN K - CHICO, CA 95926 (6.1 mi) - Tutor - $45.50/hr.
I have earned a bachelors degree (BS in Biology) and I have excelled in my classes. I have taken 2 semesters of both general chemistry and organic chemistry. After performing at a high level in these courses, I ended up tutoring students in organic chemistry for about 2 semesters. Since I am currently studying for the MCAT exam (Medical College Admissions Test) my organic chemistry knowledge is fresh. I am able to effectively relate/teach to people from different age groups, educational backgrounds, etc. My professor/mentor (Dr. Larry Hanne) has complimented on my ability to take complicated or difficult concepts and simplify them and then present them in a understandable way. I also teach students to actively think and challenge themselves academically so they can prosper.

Christopher B - Chico, CA 95926 (6.4 mi) - Tutor - $48.50/hr.
In teaching, I believe it to be very important to gain the student's interest within the subject matter. With an interest comes greater understanding and retention. Providing a structure that can be worked through systematically can be very helpful in the learning process. Not all students are the same, so one-on-one interaction can help provide a teaching/learning style conducive to the individual involved. I hope to provide an adaptive and effective teaching experience for students in need with patience and dedication. During my time as a student studying Biological Sciences, I encountered varying levels of math and science ranging from statistics to calculus and basic biology to various types of advanced physiology. I have taken the opportunity to tutor fellow classmates and younger students in science through the biological honor society, Omicron Theta Epsilon. I have also tutored ch

Fritzgerald J - Chico, CA 95926 (6.6 mi) - Tutor - $45.00/hr.
At the tender age of 25 I have already been admitted into the California State Bar as an attorney. I graduated from the University of California, Irvine earning my Bachelor's degree, with cum laude honors, in only 3 years. Shortly thereafter I attended Southwestern Law School where I was a member of the Trial Advocacy Honors Program. I am an excellent writer with exemplary grammatical and communication skills. During my time in college and law school I have helped students better understand multiple subjects, including: Writing, Law, Political Science, Speech and Debate, and Philosophy. In addition, I have helped students apply and gain acceptance into various colleges and law schools. I am a firm believer that everyone learns in different ways. This being the case, I like to identify a person's strengths and weaknesses so that I can create an individual plan that is tailored to th

Trevor R - Chico, CA 95926 (6.9 mi) - Tutor - $49.50/hr.
As Cal Poly SLO has one of the most competitive engineering programs on the west coast, I have a depth of knowledge in both math and sciences. After earning my B.S. in Biomedical Engineering, I lived in Germany, Ohio, and Central California while trying to figure out my place in this world. I settled for two years in Salinas, California where I taught pre-algebra, algebra, and geometry to junior high and high school students. I believe this level of math is the most important as applications to everyday life are abundant. As the school I taught at was private, the students were very competitive. I found my lectures and class activities reached 90% of the students. The remaining 10% were the students I especially loved to instruct. These students had difficulty learning the subject in a traditional fashion, so I was forced to explain the subject from a different angle. The individu

Josh J - Chico, DC 95973 (7 mi) - Tutor - $48.50/hr.
I always try to be very patient and supportive when I'm tutoring. I am a strong believer in the Socratic method of teaching, which from my understanding, means asking the student questions regarding what they already know about a concept in order to customize the lesson and/or "lead" them to the answer. I also try to use analogies and real life examples that are tailored according to the interests of my student. For example, if my student is interested in sports, then I try to use sports analogies and examples to describe difficult concepts. If my student is interested in science, then I use science analogies and examples, etc. I also try to break down complex concepts into smaller "pieces" so that I can help my student analyze and understand the concept one piece at a time. It is a well known fact that there is a direct relationship between the average educational level of a natio

Dustin S - Chico, CA 95926 (7 mi) - Tutor - $40.50/hr.
Children are amazing! I have been around children of all ages for most of my life due to a large family. Every child has an opportunity to be the next Albert Einstein however I feel that it is the lack of understanding on the teachers behalf on how to teach to the different needs of the children that keeps the children from learning all that they could. Every person learns differently and I feel that I have the ability to help the children learn at their own pace and relate the material to them so they can better understand. Though some children can be difficult to teach I feel that I am very patient and endearing and have the ability to work with all different types of children to help them succeed and increase their knowledge. Recent Chico State University graduate, in December 2009, offering a strong academic background. Consistently recognized for trouble shooting skills and cost-

Anna M - Chico, CA 95928 (7.2 mi) - Tutor - $44.50/hr.
"How many different ways can I teach a concept?" is the mentality I use when working with students. Every student learns in his/her own unique way. Being creative, adaptive, and fun are essential. I live for that "ah-ha moment" where everything clicks. It's no secret that we succeed in the things that we love doing. I love working with children and I strive to create a learning experience that engages my students. My goal is to leave my students eager to see what's in store for them in the next lesson. I have a bachelor's degree in Elementary Education. While earning this degree I was given the opportunity to gain experience in working in various classrooms at many different grade levels. I feel most confident in my teaching skills when working one-on-one with students or in small groups. My age areas of expertise are Kindergarten-6th grade.
