Ronald M. - North Liberty, IA 52317 (8.2 mi) - Poetry Tutor - $30.00/hr.
Published poet, mostly free verse, some Italian sonnets and surreal My primary goal is to help students understand the "why" of studies. "Why" do we look for differentials in calculus? "Why" do we describe imagery in poetry instead of just saying how we feel? "Why" do we enter compound keys in some SQL tables but not others? "Why" do we need a conclusion on our essay?
If we understand why we do something, we are far more likely to remember how to do it.
I also strive to keep the homework the work of the student. They do the work, I guide them to the correct (or at least best) answer. Students are more likely to remember how to complete the problem if they are in the driver seat, not the tutor. I am an 15 year IT professional, the last 3 with the University of Iowa. I also have 6 years of chemical/biologincal operations and technical writing experience with Abbott Laboratories and SC

Jacquelyn B - Iowa City, IA 52240 (1.5 mi) - Poetry Tutor - $37.50/hr.
I enjoy getting to know my students' strengths and areas in need of support, so that I may better facilitate learning in those areas. By learning of their strengths, I have access to their interests, which guide my choice of materials. I believe students are more motivated as learners if information is presented to them in interesting forms. As an ESL, grades 9-12 teacher, I am very familiar with identifying students' individual strengths and areas in need of support. Every one of my students learns differently. I must design curriculum that can be easily differentiated. This makes me an excellent tutor, because this is what it takes to tutor.
As a college student, I tutored many other graduate students that were attaining their degrees in this country and needed to hone their English language skills before returning to their home nations.

Patrick N - Coralville, IA 52241 (3.7 mi) - Poetry Tutor - $63.00/hr.
I am currently a PhD student in Chemistry and hold education in high regard. I believe education is the key to success in any field. I have a excellent grasp of the Sciences and Math coupled with excellent writing skills. From my undergraduate years I have tutored and mentored students in subjects ranging from Chemistry to Math, SAT, both Verbal and Quantitative sections, and English. I strive to make the student better and ultimately independent. I teach to instill the love of education in the student and give the student my best. I work with the students and adapt well to the students needs, as each student is unique and may require a different approach. My goal is to ensure that the student understands the material without being rushed and can fully comprehend how different problems are solved.

Krystal M - Cedar Rapids, IA 52404 (17 mi) - Poetry Tutor - $32.00/hr.
I currently teach in an interim classroom for secondary students who have been suspended or expelled. I teach all subjects, but am most comfortable with LA and math. Before this, I taught in a high school classroom for students with behavioral disabilities. I taught LA and social skills. I also have been a para-educator in a junior high school, a substitute teacher, and taught dance lessons. I have worked with students of many different backgrounds, ages, and abilities. I love to help a student find that "a-ha" moment where he or she finally understands a concept that has been a struggle. I enjoy teaching new concepts or working with students to master a concept.

Ken H - Richland, WA 99352 (38.8 mi) - Poetry Tutor - $41.50/hr.
I expect myself to be prepared for the lesson; to research, create and discover strategies to help each student to learn. Reciprocally, I expect each student to have completed his or her work, and come prepared to learn. There is a great sense of satisfaction and accomplishment for the instructor and the student, when a pupil develops skills and begins to excel. I am patient, creative and determined to help any student to achieve. Using my English Rhetoric degree and years of classroom experience, I have developed a multitude of teaching ideas and strategies for students. I am highly experienced at developing IEPs for students. I have assisted many students to achieve grade level competency or beyond and advanced students desiring to improve English skills. I am skilled in both writing and reading instruction. Among my accolades in teaching are all students passing the 10th grade WASL fi
