Race C - Salem, OR 97306 (21.8 mi) - GRE Tutor - $64.00/hr.
I hold BAs in History and Modern Languages (German/French), and have done graduate work in Theology and French Translation. This background has given me a broad understanding across the humanities and an ever-deepening knowledge of the world's languages, literatures, cultures, and religious traditions. I am fluent in German, literate in French, and able to provide basic assistance with Russian, Japanese, and Afrikaans. I have been a substitute teacher (all subjects, K-12), a university tutor, an ESL instructor in Montreal, and a guest editor at an academic journal. My writing, both creative and academic, has been published in a variety of journals, and I have presented papers at two university conferences. I am a strong believer in interrelating knowledge in diverse areas and illuminating its applications to real life in the belief that students are more motivated to learn when the rele

Darren H - Salem, OR 97302 (21.9 mi) - GRE Tutor - $31.00/hr.
I have always seen teaching as a matter of reigniting a natural curiosity which all students have, and directing it toward an academic subject. My priority as a tutor is to help students feel confident about their own ability to master the material. For each student this requires a different approach, so I try various methods of teaching and of working on tasks with each student, until we find one that works for him or her. For all of my students, I break tasks up into smaller, more manageable components, and I bring a relaxed but focused atmosphere to our sessions. Getting my Ph.D. in English has given me the ability to communicate clearly both verbally and in writing. During the last seven years I have been tutoring students at all grade levels, from elementary school through high school, as well as teaching classes in English at several universities. I have tutored children in test-ta

Nina G - Detroit, OR 97214 (23.2 mi) - GRE Tutor - $39.00/hr.
As a student of the College of Science, I excel both at detail in quantifiable information , and the ability to translate professional speak into everyday language. I excel in English, Science, and Psychology. I have been tutoring for five years and homeschool my 8-year-old stepdaughter. I take the time to assess each students learning style and tailor the material to their individuality. This makes learning fun and memorable. I am patient, easy-going, and able to quickly adjust to changing moods of students. Hands-on learning is my favorite way to teach.

Jessica Y - Corvallis, OR 97330 (33.3 mi) - GRE Tutor - $34.00/hr.
While I have limited experience in teaching, I do feel that one of the most important jobs in this world is being a positive and supportive leader to young individuals. I believe the best approach to teaching is through communication and practice. I am extremely personable and lend a strong background to application of subject matter. I would be thrilled to be part of any student's learning experience, as this can help create interest and paths in their own careers. My academic experience in both Chemical Engineering (BS) and Biomedical Engineering (MS) have given me strong background in math and sciences. As an undergraduate, I was fortunate to be part of a Chemical Engineering mentor program where I tutored underclassmen in the fundamentals of engineering. During my graduate stay, I was TA for undergrads and lead recitation sessions to help students prepare for subject matter. I

Carol H - Corvallis, OR 97330 (34 mi) - GRE Tutor - $52.50/hr.
My basic teaching style utilizes a multimedia approach since different students learn in different ways (audio, visual, or hands-on). I like using simple “demo” experiments to show the “magic” of chemistry. Demos are then backed up by showing the chemical equations to explain what is actually going on. I also tend to use a lot of analogies, that students can related to. I access web information to help explain chemical concepts in creative ways. I also try to get students to think of problems as puzzles. I believe learning can be a fun experience as long as we never forget to ask the fundamental questions - "Why and How?" While working on my PhD. I was a graduate teaching fellow for the Dept. of Ed. Teacher-Scholar program. I supervised undergraduates in organic chemistry labs, graded exams, led recitation sections and graded homework for both organic and general chemistry lecture

Barbara B - West Linn, OR 97068 (35.1 mi) - GRE Tutor - $41.00/hr.
Most of my experience has been with adults as learners--coaching, supervising, teaching groups of staff and colleagues in the mental health field, and now--teaching CPA candidates on what they need to pass the CPA exams.
Prior to my work as a CPA and as a manager of human services programs, I was a clinician, working with children and adolescents and their families.
I am not sure I have one teaching style. Over the years, I have learned that people learn differently and that the instructor/coach needs to first understand the learner's learning style before trying to teach. I love to see people grow and, personally, I love learning. My people skills and my enjoyment of learning are probably my greatest gifts as a teacher. I have extensive experience as a provider and manager of human services in the field of mental health, and am recognized for my contributions to the field of c
