Jay S. - Athens, AL 35613 (9.5 mi) - Shakespeare Tutor - $35.00/hr.
I have taught a variety of Shakespeare's plays in the classroom. I prefer the Socratic method of asking/answering questions and discussion, but I am more than capable of diverting to a more lecture style of teaching if that is what works with the student. I tailor my teaching style to the strengths of the student. I am a teacher with 7 years of classroom experience. My degree is in English, but I have taught in many other areas, including math, history, logic, and rhetoric. I have also tutored many students in grammar and writing, as well as Algebra I and II. I have been responsible for teaching books to students from American Literature (Hawthorne and Hemingway), European Literature (Dickens and Shakespeare), and World Literature (Gilgamesh and Homer).

I have a MA in English and I have taught college level composition (English 101 and 102). I currently teach high school Advanced English. I guide the student to his or her understanding of the material. I do not feed information. I ask that the student come to their own conclusions. I have a BA in English and Creative Writing. I received a MA in English Literature in 2005. I began my teaching career at Calhoun teaching English Composition 101 and 102. I have since been teaching high school (for 8 years) and currently am teaching honors 10 and AP Senior Lit. and Comp. at a local high school. English is my life! ha! I am extremely well read and very well versed. I know what it takes to score well on standardized tests and how to write "A" papers.

Bianca H - Huntsville, AL 35806 (3.7 mi) - Shakespeare Tutor - $39.00/hr.
I enjoy pretented not to know the work myself which allows them to help me. It helps me to see what they already know and to see how much I need to help them know. I use this approach to boost selfesteem in students. I'm currently working for Huntsville City Schools Extended Day Program. I've been working there for 3 years. In those 3 years, I also worked in the work study program, working at the Richard Showers Center's after school program. While, at the Showers Center, I was placed with an ADHD and Dyslexic student. My duties included, helping him find different ways to learn the material and I went through a series of repetitional exercises. I continued to tutor him for 1 year.

Leigh D - Huntsville, AL 35805 (6.4 mi) - Shakespeare Tutor - $50.00/hr.
I began to realize my love and aptitude for tutoring as a volunteer Japanese instructor for the Daikin home-stay program in 2006. The next two years I volunteered my time with Rosie's International Services tutoring Spanish. At the beginning of the Spring 2008 semester, the Head of the Foreign Language Department, Dr. Maier, submitted my name to a tutoring department at UAH, where I worked tutoring Spanish, Japanese, Latin, Chinese, and English as a Second Language until I graduated in Spring 2010. Although I do not have an education degree nor teaching certificate, I was hired as a part-time Spanish teacher at Austin High School 2010-2011, where I started an informal Japanese Culture Club. The first thing I do with any new student is identify his or her learning style so that I may incorporate those specific strategies into my lesson for an effective and personalized learning experience

Thomas B - Huntsville, AL 35801 (8.4 mi) - Shakespeare Tutor - $35.50/hr.
I graduated from Wake Forest in 2008, double-majoring in Mathematics and Physics. I also took some courses in the Education Department, and substitute taught for public high schools and middle schools in Winston-Salem, NC and Metairie, LA.
I have worked in tutoring programs for elementary school children approximately twice a week for a total of twelve months.
I have recently learned HTML, PHP, and Javascript programming languages, and am the designer and programmer for the Facebook application Harry Potter House Sort. I think educators must take into account the different ways in which students learn. For instance, I've noticed that math students may have difficulty adding and subtracting fractions, but have no trouble whatsoever when I ask about dimes and quarters. If an instructor can build a bridge between new material and material the student has already mastered, the stu

Sherri S - Huntsville, AL 35802 (8.5 mi) - Shakespeare Tutor - $56.50/hr.
I enjoy working with kids to reach their fullest potential. I have high expectations because I believe all kids can learn. The role I like best is that of motivator and facilitator. My dream for students is that they become life-long lovers of learning...not just life-long learners. I attempt to model for them this love of learning by sharing my own experiences as a reader and writer. I encourage risk-taking and ownership. I do not believe in spoon feeding students; there is some "wailing and gnashing of teeth" at times,but students are always so proud of themselves when they reach their academic goals. I have taught for over twenty years from 4th grade to 9th grade; for the last nineteen years, I have taught English at the middle school level. I began my career teaching 4th grade. I have also taught 5th grade and 6th grade English and Math. I am highly qualified in Reading K-12 a

Courtney F - Huntsville, AL 35801 (8.7 mi) - Shakespeare Tutor - $36.00/hr.
I believe in interactive learning. Students learn best when they are in a safe environment, which I can provide. I have experience breaking down large assignments and helping students to accomplish one task at a time. My goal is to help students see that any project (writing, reading, etc) can be accomplished with a little hard work and explaining. For the past 2.5 years, I have been in middle and high schools working with English teachers and students. Though I often worked as a substitute, I was able to teach students lessons and work left by teachers who knew of my experience and knowledge of Language Arts. I received a MA in English Education from University of Alabama in Huntsville as well as a BA in English and Theatre from Union University. I am Highly Qualified with the state of Alabama and have been trained through the Alabama Reading Initiative. I have spent years workin

Genett B - Huntsville, AL 35810 (9.1 mi) - Shakespeare Tutor - $32.50/hr.
My teaching style is center around my philosophy of education. My philosophy of education consist of the beliefs that all students are entitled to a quality education that effectively prepares them for competition in the job markets. Each student deserves an education that teaches critical thinking skills and the importance of the self in relations to the world. Every classroom needs an educator that remains abreast of the ever changing information relevant to school curriculum and policies. Every student is entitled to a learning environment in which they feel safe and respected, a learning environment that encourages academic and social growth while fostering a sustained sense of academic accomplishment within the student I began my teaching experience in childhood.

Genett B - Huntsville, AL 35810 (9.1 mi) - Shakespeare Tutor - $41.50/hr.
I was born to teach. From 10 years old I would teach my friends during summer vacations or whenever I could get them to play my favorite game, school, (Kids don't play school anymore). I enjoy helping students make the connections. I use a teaching approach that is hands on and generally seeks to find atudents learning style. I know that all children can learn, it is sometimes a matter of how they learn that becomes a barrier. I am very sensitive students need to feel empowered, hence I seek to teach the students skills that eventually lead to not needing me or any other tutor. I am an individual driven by the desire to learn. I have a Master's in Education with a triple major, certified to teach two of the three. I am currently pursuing a second Master's in Curriculum Instruction and Development with an emphasis in technology based instruction. I have over 15 years of experience

Mary S - Ardmore, AL 35739 (16.5 mi) - Shakespeare Tutor - $35.50/hr.
Teaching is my passion. Students need to be challenged, engaged, and eager to learn which is fueled by the enthusiasm of the teacher. I recognize that not every student in my classroom learns in the same manner. Various teaching methods need to be combined so that students have the opportunity to learn in multiple ways. The more opportunities that are available for a student to learn, the more valuable the education becomes for the student. Therefore, the most successful teaching technique is one that involves a variety of different methods where relevance is the umbrella in order to accommodate every student's unique learning style and needs inside and outside of the classroom. As a special education teacher, I am highly motivated to see all students succeed both inside and outside of the classroom setting. I have earned a bachelor degree in Political Science with a minor in History and

Mark E - Hartselle, AL 35640 (18.2 mi) - Shakespeare Tutor - $33.00/hr.
I believe in teaching something until I see the "light come on".
I don't take their word for it that they understand it. They must demonstrate to me that they understand it by working through the most difficult problems in the area that I am instructing. I was educated at UAB for a degree in Political Science and English. My English and grammar skills are impecable. I also obtained an MBA from UAB though my greatest business experience was actually working as a banker for fifteen years. I have a passion for helping youth through my church and have four daughters of my own.

Emily W - Hartselle, AL 35640 (18.7 mi) - Shakespeare Tutor - $37.50/hr.
As a recent graduate from the Athens State University English program, I am proficient in the areas of grammar, writing, and English and American literature. I have excellent grammar skills due to writing research papers and essays. I am also a freelance writer for online and local publications. During the last two years I have tutored college and high school students in English and literature. My teaching style varies with each student. I talk with the student to determine his or her personal learning style, and then base my method on the individual student. I believe that every student is unique and I do my best to cater to his or her particular learning style to maximize his or her learning experience. I evaluate the student's strengths and weaknesses, and work to improve the areas that need improvement. I am a strong believer in positive reinforcement, and I always give praise
