Jane R - Albuquerque, NM 87120 (32.6 mi) - PSAT Tutor - $34.00/hr.
In a word, my teaching style is Socratic. Often that means I respond to a student’s question with a question that enables them to figure out answers for themselves. Other times, my questions are designed to stimulate ideas beyond the student’s view so they need to “stretch” a bit. I firmly believe this style encourages the student’s creativity and belief in their own capabilities. Coupled to the formal teaching and certainly as important is the relationship between the teacher and students that generates growth. My bias is that teaching - stimulating and watching a student learn-- is a wonderful delight. My formal teaching experience is limited to two years with seventh graders and high schoolers. When I pursed graduate work in cell biology, experiences with formal education were limited. However giving seminars and training technical staff was common and bears similarity to forma

Patricia G - Rio Rancho, NM 87124 (34.3 mi) - PSAT Tutor - $39.50/hr.
During college I worked for NMSU and CYFD providing two types of tutoring services.
With NMSU I worked with fellow college students in classes that I previously passed, which mainly included Accounting and Math.
With CYFD I worked with young mothers trying to obtaining their GED. I helped create good study habits and tutored them in all areas included in the GED; Social Studies, Math, Language Arts, and Science.
While in college I took several communication classes which had presentations in front of 100 or more students. I took intermediate algebra along with statistics and business calculus.
I work with computers on a regular basis (including the internet and Microsoft Office) and have taken several advanced excel courses. I love the idea of being the person that has helped someone further their knowledge. I have always been a person that will take the time to teach someone som

John S - Rio Rancho, NM 87174 (34.6 mi) - PSAT Tutor - $35.50/hr.
I am convinced, partly because of my own experiences, that the current educational system best serves the needs of the average student. I also believe that it seldom addresses the needs of those students whose learning style is not a good fit with the one size fits all educational system. This may be for a wide variety of reasons, but the result is that the student is left without the needed skill set to compete and what’s worse, left with the message that they are responsible for "not getting it" and are inferior or stupid in some respect. I nearly flunked junior high pre-algebra, and was a mediocre math student in high school. I eventually managed to teach myself, and have subsequently scored 800 on the math section of the GRE and was one of about 50/15000 to score a perfect 15 on the quantitative section of the medical college admission test (MCAT). What is wrong with this picture? My

Sally M - Albuquerque, NM 87114 (34.7 mi) - PSAT Tutor - $34.00/hr.
Over my year and half of experience tutoring, I believe all students need a chance for a successful future. I worked with middle school students and college students. I also worked with students individually and in grops. I was able to organize and prioritize their needs for help in various subjects. I beleve a good tutor who is willing to dedicate their time and effort to help a student will make a change in that student's life. I pursued my BS degree in Medical Lab Sciences and planning on getting my Masters in education. Therefore, I am knowledegable with different levels of chemistry up to Introductry Organic and Biochemistry, also able to tutor different levels of Biology up to Introductry Molecular Biology and various levels of Math. Moreover, from writing many lab reports i developed great writiing and grammatical skills. In addition, since I am a native speaker of Arabic Language

Don S - Albuquerque, NM 87193 (35.2 mi) - PSAT Tutor - $35.50/hr.
I have about 10 years teaching experience in both the middle school and high school level. Some of the subjects I have taught include American History, World History, Biology, Chemistry, Physics, Computer Science, and Earth Science. For the last 6 years I have been teaching primarily mathematics courses: Pre-algebra, Algebra I & II, Geometry, and Pre-calculus. Because I had to take many courses for my master’s degree, I also have excellent skills in writing term papers, reports, and papers. Since I have graded and read many papers, I know what teachers’ expectations are for papers and what makes the difference between an “A” paper and a “B” paper. I desire to see every student succeed in life. Succeeding in school is a big part of learning to become successful in your life. Not so much the individual grades that a student gets, but learning responsibility, perseverance, goal-setting, an

James R - Los Ranchos, NM 87107 (36 mi) - PSAT Tutor - $33.50/hr.
Socratic, I like the students to build on what they already know so that it becomes an extension of their long term memory not another short term memory soon forgotten. I have found ways to connect almost any subject matter from physics to algebra to chemistry nomenclature into something one already knows. If one uses long term memory pegs one can "file" things in memory and recall with very little effort. I have received a degree in English and was a pre-law student. I owned a real estate company in 1990s. I was in the Navy (scored 95% on ASVAB) and worked in the field of intelligence. I acquired legal experience working within real estate and finance. I have an intricate knowledge of contract law, working knowledge of medical law - where it governs patient interaction, privacy, medical records and patient rights. Regarding teaching and tutoring experience, I taught as an adjunct p

Nancy D - Rio Rancho, NM 87124 (36.2 mi) - PSAT Tutor - $39.50/hr.
All people can learn. My job is to be a coach and help students learn to take responsibility for their own learning. I feel it helps a great deal to allow students high levels of autonomy regarding what they choose to study. I will follow along with the student to the best of my ability by challening any assumptions he or she may have about a topic and encouraging higher level problem solving. As a Licensed School Pyschologist and parent of two school aged children, I have come to understand how people learn things. I have a strong background in reading and writing and was published when I was in college. I have worked for many years with students who struggle with writing, and feel I am very effective in helping them make the connections between reading and writing in a meaningful way. Due to my background in psychology and counseling, I am well suited to work on motivational issu

Victor G - Albuquerque, NM 87106 (36.4 mi) - PSAT Tutor - $43.00/hr.
I have tutored most of the Math and Science courses at Glendale Community College for four years, tutored troubled teens at the
YWCA during the same time period, taught Algebra at Gerard Catholic High School for one year, and tutored around the valley for several additional years.
My motivation is to be the best at what I do and to teach students
self discipline, good study habits, and to impart difficult subjects with clarity using everyday examples and creativity. Throughout my educational experiences I have sought true understanding rather than simply a grade with a stamp of acceptance.
I've also worked as a Materials Analysis Engineer, Semiconductor
Failure Analysis Engineer, and Metrology Engineer.
I can teach most math, electronics, and science courses at the
high school and college levels. I love teaching students and to explore subjects with honesty, creativity, an

Grace S - Albuquerque, NM 87108 (37.4 mi) - PSAT Tutor - $38.00/hr.
Teaching is one of my great passions. I thoroughly enjoy overcoming the initial hurdles as the children are hesitant to receive me as a teacher, and to see them open up to me. It's also thrilling to see them blossom as they absorb new information and incorporate it. I'm certainly an advocate of fostering intelligence at a young age. When children begin to learn, they begin to build self-esteem, which they will carry with them indefinitely. In life, nobody can rob one of his or her education. Thanks to my education in psychology at Brown University, I have gleaned much wisdom about the workings of human behavior as well as the human psyche. I have been able to observe applications of what I've learned throughout my daily life. This is especially helpful in teaching; I can recognize the various personalities and the accompanying learning styles in the students, which enable me to be
