Deanna K - Bangor, ME 04401 (24.6 mi) - Social Studies Tutor - $35.00/hr.
As a current graduate student I have had the opportunity to learn a great deal about the effective techniques and skills it takes for one to succeed within the classroom. I have so far earned my BS in Clinical Psychology and am currently working on my Masters in Business Administration, which have both given me a much greater appreciation and understanding of the importance of organization, promptness, and communication as each pertains to being a successful student. During my time as an undergraduate student I was able to tutor my peers in a variety of areas, all pertaining to English-related materials, which in turn allowed me to enhance my own skills as a student and tutor. Working with people, particularly children, has always been a passion of mine. Through the psychology program at Husson College I was able to gain a better understanding of human interaction, interpersonal relation

Valerie S - Bucksport, ME 04416 (36.1 mi) - Social Studies Tutor - $38.00/hr.
As a music therapist, I learned to apply my creativity to design instruction that allows the learner to be actively and successfully engaged in learning.
As a special educator, I learned to quickly problem-solve if a support strategy is not successful. I've worked with students with all levels of learning challenges (those with and without formal disability labels) and can help each learner become confident in their abilities.I understand how teachers are trained, keep current with research, and know how schools function structurally, which helps me think about where things may break down for the individual learner. FInally, learning should be enjoyable at least part of the time-another critical lesson from music therapy! I first determine the student's learning style so I have an idea what works for him or her.
Learners who have experienced repeated failure need successful experie

Richard M - Clinton,, ME 04927 (47.2 mi) - Social Studies Tutor - $36.00/hr.
I have a refined ability to interpret and to write about the best writers and critics in the English language. I have also learned to express my understanding to tough, cynical and easily distracted teenagers, as well as to more motivated and capable students. I have worked at GoodWill-Hinckley, where for more than five years I taught behavioral and social skills to teenagers. I have also worked for many years as both staff and as a supervisor in homes for the developmentally disabled, where I have been responsible for training new staff. In the CADD Certificate program at Kennebec Valley Community College (where I earned high honors) I worked as an algebra tutor to adults. I am a very patient listener and think that I empathize well with everyone. While student teaching I learned to pay attention to all of the students in a very diverse student body. I chose texts from a variety of back

Robyn S - Waterville, ME 04901 (54.2 mi) - Social Studies Tutor - $33.50/hr.
I have always loved working with children. Through my experience as a special education instructor, I have learned children can learn in a variety of ways. My teaching philosophy is that each child has different strengths, and it is imperative to tailor an educational program to these strengths. By highlighting what a student is good at, their confidence is increased. This confidence will help them overcome academic obstacles. I believe that teachers play a huge role inthe success of their students, and that with the right support system, any child can acheive their academic goals. I feel very strongly about the importance of a good education. Having a degree in English, I have much experience in using proper grammar, technical writing skills and creative writing skills. I have tutored students in the area of English, biology, history and some spanish.
