Danny M. - Berkeley, CA 94703 (34.3 mi) - Literature Tutor - $25.00/hr.
Law student based in Berkeley, studying in Ireland. Educated in Clongowes Wood College (Ireland), achieving top grades in English, Music and Geography. Received the RIAM silver medal at 15 for piano, and the gold medal at 18 years of age. Played drums for 12+ years. Certified TEFL English language teacher and runner-up in the 2011 Beckett-Joyce award for creative writing. Tutored for ages 15-18 in the English category and can teach piano and drums to all but advanced performers. Emphasis and understanding of the fundmental material is crucial, and I would focus more on simplifying how certain topics should be understood rather than over-complicating the problem.

In addition to teaching and tutoring English, American, World and Contemporary Literature courses to middle and high school and college students, I have also taught and tutored elementary students about grade level literature. I am an avid reader of great literature. I have been a dynamic, successful elementary, middle and high school teacher as well as college instructor of Art, English, French and History for many years.

While teaching, I have always taken courses in the best practices of teaching as well as courses in subject matter content. I have tutored people of all ages, learning styles and needs in a range of subject matter, including testing; I ascertain how each student learns best to develop the most fitting, effective teaching

Elizabeth M. - San Mateo, CA 94403 (45.4 mi) - Literature Tutor - $35.00/hr.
I believe in a highly individualized approach. We all have different learning styles: visual, auditory, kinisthetic... and many more. What's yours? Learning shouldn't be a chore, but an avenue to becoming a more successful person. I like to set goals with my students and help them knock them out one at a time, creating a lasting sense of accomplishment and heightening motivation for future endeavors. I began my teaching career even before graduating High School. I started volunteering my time with homework help and study skills at the local Boys and Girls Club when I was 16 followed by teaching Remedial English to a small group of ELL students at a partnering elementary school. During college, I continued my passion by joining an organization that teaches life and social skills to developmentally delayed young adults. After graduating from SFSU, I persued my TEFL certification which

LeAnn R. - Menlo Park, CA 94025 (52.8 mi) - Literature Tutor - $30.00/hr.
I have been in education for 16 years. I specialize in working with students with ADD/ADHD, specific learning disabilities as well as students who underachieve. I have a Master's Degree in Special Education and have successfully worked with students all over the Bay Area to help them realize their full potential. Not all students are successful and the trick is to identify the reasons behind the lack of success. The issues that students have with school are diverse; procrastination, lack of organization, failure to plan, lack of awareness, ineffective habits, learning disabilities, and differences are all possible explanations for school failure. I work with students one on one to help them pinpoint where things break down for them and then work with them to find strategies to help them manage the skills and material they are asked to learn and master. I am there to guide, not just

Marc P - Camp Meeker, CA 95419 (18.6 mi) - Literature Tutor - $41.00/hr.
I was a community college English teacher for 12 years at Vista Community College in Berkeley, CA (now Berkeley City College). I taught in a special program tailored to working adults who had returned to school in order to earn their Associate of Arts degrees. This was not an academically confident population. They required enormous encouragement, personal attention, and coaching. I was very successful in this position because I was willing to talk with students on the phone, meet with them after class, and even respond to their essays at length on cassette tapes--my own idea! My approach to teaching is to provide what is needed, and sometimes that is not limited to the explicit task at hand. As an English teacher/tutor, I have often found that, rather than merely showing students how to recognize a complete sentence and use correct punctuation and grammar, the more important thing is to
