Felice R. - Woodbridge, VA 22193 (28.7 mi) - SAT - Verbal Tutor - $40.00/hr.
I work with students to find better strategies on the critical reading and writing sections of the test. I consider myself to be a "test-prep coach."

I have worked in educational access for over twenty years, and I have a particular passion for showing students ways to simplify difficult processes. My professional highlights include:
• Providing individual tutoring for students preparing for the SAT and ACT
• Mentoring and motivating students to stay engaged and up to date
• Working with parents, schools and organizations to assist students with transition to higher education
• Developing curriculum for reading, math, and GED preparation classes

Tambra G. - Charlottesville, VA 22903 (37.9 mi) - SAT - Verbal Tutor - $62.50/hr.
Over 25 years of teaching experience (all grade levels ~ from preschool to university graduate level courses). I enjoy tutoring, as it allows me to work one-on-one with a student to best assess their strengths and weaknesses in order to help them reach their goals. My doctoral work in Educational Psychology has given me a unique advantage in incorporating learning theory with applied teaching techniques. My clinical psychology experience and educational background has prepared me well for all forms of educational assessment. My post-Master's reading education work and research keeps me current on how best to diagnose and remediate reading comprehension and fluidity concerns. As an assistant psychology professor at the community college level, I am currently conducting my doctoral dissertation research on reading comprehension for this student population.

Brittany C - Stafford, VA 22554 (19.5 mi) - SAT - Verbal Tutor - $47.50/hr.
I graduated from Vanderbilt University in May 2010, and I am currently applying to medical school. In high school and college, I tutored in math, science, English, and test prep. Math and Science are my favorite subjects, but I also have much experience with tutoring English and grammar. I have also tutored people preparing for tests such as the ACT, SAT, and Gateway. I always look forward to tutoring new people becuase I not only get to make a difference in their life by helping them master what they're struggling with, but I also get to learn about people and different learning styles. I view tutoring as a way to help others while improving my interpersonal skills. I value all the skills I gain from tutoring because they will be assets when I become a physician. Working with all ages from kindergarten to college has taught me patience and how to conform to different people's needs.

Isaac R - Ashland, VA 23005 (36.8 mi) - SAT - Verbal Tutor - $41.50/hr.
Post-pubescent persons have a great capacity to learn abstract material; all that is necessary to open that potential is to motivate them. I do not specialize in that motivation. I do, however, excel at taking a puzzled student and explaining the difficult material in a way that makes sense to him or her. Mnemonic devices, simplifications, and advanced tools contribute to progress for any student of mine. As a typically destitute college student, I chose to supplement my income with the knowledge I knew best. This covered non-biological sciences and mathematics, as well as conversational Spanish and English literary composition up to the sophomore college level, Over the last five years, though the three years of my undergraduate education were the most busy, both peers and high school students took advantage of my services.

Elisabeth T - Henrico, VA 23233 (39.8 mi) - SAT - Verbal Tutor - $40.50/hr.
After 17 years in the classroom, I still firmly believe that teachers are born and not made, and that all people should develop a love for life-long learning in whatever their career fields or passions may be. My loves do include reading and writing, but with advanced degrees in adult and vocational education and curriculum studies, I also enjoy studying many other areas of learning. My teaching experience has included 8th through 12th grade students of varying abilities and subjects ranging from literature, grammar, writing, test taking skills, Georgia High School Test review, Social Skills, Etiquette, British Literature, and ESOL. Teaching is what I was born to do, and I enjoy working with students of varying ages and abilities. Approaching difficult tasks or challenging assignments with new ideas or fresh techniques can make reluctant learners receptive. I am patient, but not a pu

Rabia B - Reston, VA 20190 (44.2 mi) - SAT - Verbal Tutor - $40.00/hr.
I love working with kids and it's my inner passion to teach. I have developed patience’s working with children and I like to teach as a mentor/friend. My main focus is students' needs and goals, and the willingness to explore their strengths. I believe that every child has the capability to learn and they just need a little guidance. I would love to be the reason a child wants to learn and gain their knowledge. I am a hard-working and ambitious person with a desire to contribute to society. I believe educators, teachers, counselors, principals are the providers, directors, and managers of complex systems of care. In other words, they are the backbone of the educational industry. While working as an Assistant Director of Education, I have learned to be more effective as a teacher. I have been teaching for past seven years and I have taught all age groups and subjects like, English, Math,

Allison Q - Alexandria, VA 22311 (44.2 mi) - SAT - Verbal Tutor - $40.00/hr.
My education in international relations and international public affairs has allowed me to gain knowledge in the social sciences and foreign languages. As an undergraduate student, I studied and worked in Spain, which has given me the opportunity to hone my Spanish skills. In graduate school, I participated in a number of Mandarin Chinese intensive language programs, both in the United States and mainland China. I have tutored students in high school and college and have also served as a mentor to undergraduate and graduate students. As a future university professor, students’ success and understanding of the subject at hand is of the utmost importance to me. My greatest strength as a tutor is that I know what it is like to have no knowledge of a foreign language. Thus, I am able to diagnose the particular difficulties a student is having and provide appropriate guidance in resolvin
