Caitlin C - Muscatine, IA 52761 (37.7 mi) - Testing Strategies Tutor - $59.00/hr.
I truly enjoy working with all students. My past experiences of interacting with children has shown me all children have the ability to learn, but learn at different paces and in different ways. I believe in finding out what learning method works best for each individual student and build from there. I am patient, understanding, and have a strong willingness to help others. I believe effort goes a long way. As long as there is effort on behalf of the student, as well as from the tutor, success can be achieved. My goal is to make simple improvements in small steps to obtain that sense of accomplishment and confidence for the student. As a mentor I will provide encouragement and support to make a difference in each student's life. As an University of Iowa graduate I have always held education as a high value. I have dedicated my time to personally achieving excellence in education, as wel

Toni P - Rock Island, IL 61201 (38 mi) - Testing Strategies Tutor - $39.00/hr.
I'm a strong believer in the Gardner's ideas of many different learning styles and types of intelligent. Some students are better audio, tactile, or visual learners. I feel it is the teacher's responsibility to find the best learning style for each student and build on that format through scaffolding. I love nothing better than to see the light bulb go off in a students mind. This also helps them to realize that learning can be a fun adventure. I've been a special education teacher and held positions in resource and in self-contained rooms. I've taught students with learning problems in reading, math, and writing. I have also worked in the Lights on for Learning program and have been a home tutor for home bound students in the district.

Sarah R - Rock Island, IL 61021 (39.7 mi) - Testing Strategies Tutor - $39.50/hr.
I have previously worked as a shift supervisor at Starbucks, which has given me experience training, coaching, and delegating duties to other employees. This position has in turn helped me to understand different methods of coaching others, as it applies to varying degrees of learning styles. I also am currently working as a swim instructor at Blackhawk College, which also gives me practice and experience in teaching students of varying age groups and levels and also provides me with an opportunity to learn more about how to interact with students. In addition, I work as a substitute teacher, which in turn helps me to also learn varying degrees of learning and delegation styles. I enjoy working with students and co-workers on all levels, whether they have little or no experience. I know when to recognize different styles in learning and methods I can use to accomodate each different styl

Jonathan W - Rock Island, IL 61201 (39.7 mi) - Testing Strategies Tutor - $35.50/hr.
I believe the best way to learn is peer-to-peer learning. As an auto-didact I have the study skills necessary to regurgitate information as taught by the current institutional models. This is an uncreative and highly unnatural way to learn. There's a reason no major discovery was made in a classroom -- true innovation, discovery and learning is an organic process. I'm a student at Augustana College whose academic record has ranged from public school to home schooling to community college and and even private education. I've worked as a tutor for over 2 years at Black Hawk College, at the same time obtaining an Associates Degree. Throughout those years I've encountered many special needs students and many bright students, tutoring in subjects ranging from English, Math, Social Studies, to Computer Science.
