Natalie R. - Richmond, KY 40475 (46.4 mi) - Spelling Tutor - $21.50/hr.
I am a current Honors Student at Eastern Kentucky University, studying both Spanish and the Visual Arts. I am in my seventh year of Spanish language and cultural studies, and have had many opportunities to improve my language skills through my courses of study, translating for Spanish-speakers, and immersing myself in the Hispanic community. In High School, I took AP Spanish and genuinely enjoyed it. Visual Art has always been my passion. In high school, I took courses such as Art 1, Painting, Ceramics/ Pottery 1 and 2, Independent study Ceramics/ Pottery, and Crafts. I am currently working towards an undergraduate degree in this field as well. As an Honors student, I have been pushed to improve my writing organizationally as well as stylistically, thus developing my vocabulary as well as spelling and grammatical skills.

Veronica C. - Richmond, KY 40475 (46.4 mi) - Spelling Tutor - $30.00/hr.
I've been writing and thinking about writing since I learned to read. I have, in the past decade or so, finally gotten serious enough to start publishing and teaching, while establishing my post-graduate education in order to increase my capabilities. For the past two years I have taught varying levels of freshman English at EKU after working two years as a writing tutor at EKU's new Noel Studio for Academic Creativity.

Denise L - Woodbine, KY 40771 (19.3 mi) - Spelling Tutor - $37.50/hr.
I love teaching and working with all children. I believe all children can learn, but each in different ways. My goal is to work with your child where they are and help them find academic success. I am patient, understanding, and compassionate. I understand that when students struggle, they become frustrated. My goal is to find what method will work with your child so that learning becomes fun. I am a firm believer in teaching through discovery and in providing a constructivist approach to learning. I believe all children can meet their potential if they are given the appropriate surroundings and learning experiences. As a 2010 graduate of Eastern Kentucky University, I was very much driven to achieve a high level of excellence in education. I was President of our local Kentucky Education Association and Chair of our Student Government Association. I have earned two bachelor degr

Megan J - Corbin, KY 40701 (24.2 mi) - Spelling Tutor - $36.00/hr.
I graduated summa cum laude from Berea College with a Bachelor of Arts in Biology. I haven taken many courses in biology and chemistry. I am also very proficient in algebra and trigonometry, and I have taken one course in calculus. As a high school student I worked in an after school program tutoring children in grades 3 to 8 in reading and math. During college I volunteered in “one-on-one tutoring” where I met weekly with a student to tutor her in basic math. I also worked as a teaching assistant in the biology department of my college. My teaching style varies depending on the age and needs of the student. When I worked with younger children, I often made up a game to help the children learn the material while having fun. Even with older children I tried to make learning interactive and suit their personality. I also varied the amount and type of aid given based on the student’s

Ezra K - Berea, KY 40403 (36.1 mi) - Spelling Tutor - $34.50/hr.
I really like the Sanskrit word, “Namaste,” which I consciously use as a point of guidance in encountering people. One interpretation or meaning of this word is: The Light in me sees the Light in you. I want to honor others so that I can be of better service to them. If I am asked to tutor anyone, young or old, I hope that this can be the foundation of our meeting so that the learning process is a joyous one. I have the tools to help assist in this learning, both academically and intuitively. I am also willing to learn and glean what is valuable and helpful for my own experience. The journey to Wisdom is interactive. I graduated with a BA in English Literature from Berea College. Berea is known for its rigorous academic program. I worked in the Public Relations Office as a News Writer, doing research and writing news releases for upcoming events. Post graduation, I’ve edited a

Ginene R - Berea, KY 40403 (37 mi) - Spelling Tutor - $35.50/hr.
Since graduating from college, I have pursued further education through supplemental education. While working, I have attended classes in the evenings to keep current with teaching trends, practical classroom skills and the social-emotional needs of children in learning.
For 8 years, I was an instructional assistant, but also substituted and served as an after school tutor. For the past 5 years, I have been a pre-school teacher with Migrant Head Start. Spanish was the home language of all the students in the classroom and, as teachers, we used both languages. I feel qualified to teach pre-K or first grade Spanish speaking children and to teach Spanish to pre-K or first grade English speaking children. I work best with pre-school, kindergarten, and first graders and have had lots of experience with Spanish speaking children. I consider myself a hands-on teacher. I believe

I really enjoy working with children and have done so in many different capacities. I believe in learning through participation and repetition. I am laid back, but persistent.I feel that a child has to find their own style of learning and I am dedicated to helping them achieve that. I graduated Magna Cum Laude from Eastern Kentucky University in 2010 with a Bachelors of Science in Criminal Justice. I am currently in my third semester at EKU pursuing my Masters in Public Administration. Through my coursework in my undergraduate and graduate programs I have gained skills in conducting research, writing all forms of papers, public speaking, and statistical analysis. Over the last five years I have worked with children and young adults of various ages as a camp counselor, track coach, mentor and tutor. I have tutored students in English, college introductory skills, political science, and so

Alison M - Richmond, KY 40475 (47 mi) - Spelling Tutor - $34.50/hr.
As a person who is passionate about children, I have worked alongside them for four years. I was a camp counselor for three years running and I also took part in extra tutoring at the school where I did my student teaching. I worked alongside a child that needed some extra help in reading and math. His test scores were raised significantly in that time that I was working with him.
I am very passionate about teaching children and I love to watch them succeed. I believe that every child is capable of learning, it just might take a little extra effort to relize how to achieve this goal. I love teaching and working with all different types of children. I have worked with children from all socioeconomic backgrounds and I am familiar with multiple teaching styles. I am a firm believer in teaching in a way that caters to each child.

Kathryn A - Richmond, KY 40475 (52.1 mi) - Spelling Tutor - $36.00/hr.
Most of my teaching experience has been in classrooms with students from the toddler stage through 6th grade. My favorite areas to teach are phonics, reading, and elementary math. However, in the passed five years I have tutored pre-school age through adults in many areas, and homeschooled all areas in elementary and middle school. I also taught English as a second language. I love guiding a student through some difficult or misunderstood content and getting the "ahha!" of understanding at the end. My experience has taught me that all children can learn, but often in different ways. Finding the mode of learning for each student is the key. I try to find different ways to present the information until the child understands. It is also important to review and practice in order to reach the learning goal. I am a patient teacher and respectful of each student.
