Christy B - Ocean Springs, MS 39564 (32.1 mi) - Composition Tutor - $37.00/hr.
I believe learning should be fun and creative and that children should have an environment that is friendly and caring to learn in. I think teachers should be patient with their difficulties and take time to give them the one on one attention that they need. I like thematic units and hands on activities. I like to teach reading and english. I like to use whole group, small groups, paired reading activities. I like to use magazines, newspapers, children's books and other materials that interest the students to teach reading. I greatly enjoy seeing the students achieve their learning goals and their yearly progress
In 2000, I began to teach special education and teaching special needs children with learning disabilities. I taught grades 3rd-5th in a self-contained, reading, math, and language skills and middle school grades 6th- 8th.

Jeffrey P - Gautier, MS 39553 (36.7 mi) - Composition Tutor - $37.50/hr.
As a native of the Mississippi Gulf Coast, I am eager to see students of this area excel in their studies. Fortunately, I was able to grasp the subjects of Mathematics and Chemistry, and this has allowed me to enjoy a successful career as a Chemical Engineer. I recognize the challenges that students face, especially in the areas of Mathematics and Chemistry, and I am confident that with hard work, they will be able to develop their skills and understanding of these subjects. I have tutored family and friends, in college and high school, and have found that repetition feeds confidence, and confidence feeds success. As stated above, I believe the keys to successful training and tutoring is through repetition. I expect a great deal from each student, because I am convinced that we all have the capacity to learn. I feel that the role of a tutor is to facilitate the learning of the stude

Lillian W - Merairie, LA 70002 (45.5 mi) - Composition Tutor - $39.50/hr.
I think the most useful tutor emphasizes critical thinking. I have noticed that many students focus on memorization instead of really understanding the processes behind science, math, and foreign languages. I try to focus on how and why things are, rather than just the fact that they are. I believe that this approach provides students with a deep understanding of the material and an ability to problem-solve on their own. They can then develop better comprehension, and tend to be more interested in learning. I graduated with my undergraduate degree in marine biology in 2002 and then worked as a research biologist for two and a half years before returning to school to pursue my master’s degree. I believe that my hands-on scientific experiences combined with my academic background allow me to convey difficult concepts to students. As a researcher and as a student, I have had to put together

Christie D - New Orleans, LA 70118 (46.6 mi) - Composition Tutor - $52.50/hr.
I believe that anyone is capable of learning anything. I believe that it is up to the teacher to make the subject at hand interesting, and relate it to the real-world needs of the student. It is important to instigate an open dialogue, to understand the student to then formulate a plan that fits with the student's learning style. Open communication and patience are the cornerstone to getting any student to open up and begin the learning process. I have a passion for learning, would love to help any student become aware that learning can be fun and productive. I am a completely dedicated person, who is focused on strengthening my life skills and my knowledge base to continue to grow as a stronger and more well-rounded person. My background in psychology, public health, and social work have heightened my sensitivity to all ranges of people and cultures, and the needs they possess. My passi
