Mikal H. - Hendersonville, NC 28739 (26.4 mi) - Literature Tutor - $15.00/hr.
I have experience in all of the fields that are listed. Most of the skills I have acquired were either through learning them during my time at school or through doing personal research because they interested me. I have done some tutoring in the computer/i.t field as a side job. Chess has been one of my favorite things to learn. My experience with chess has been a regional tournament where I made it to the last-round of the semi-finals. I am a very hands-on teacher. I try to help students by showing them how it is done and then letting them practice.

Courtney B. - Boone, NC 28608 (45 mi) - Literature Tutor - $17.50/hr.
My area of expertise is the English language and grammar. I took two year's worth of Advanced Placement English classes during high school and made either 4's or 5's on both exams. The score of 5 on my senior level exam allowed me to place out of Freshman English during college and jump right into Sophomore English. I just made an A in that Sophomore class. I also took Spanish for four years during high school, and have already taken a college level class with a final grade of A. I will be taking another class this coming semester, and after only three more Spanish classes I will have a minor in Spanish language. I practice my Spanish on a daily basis and have used my skills a countless number of times in the workplace. With regard to elementary education, I have a 12-year old sister that just started middle school. I used to help her with her homework and projects and helped her

Christi F - Ridgecrest, NC 28770 (1.7 mi) - Literature Tutor - $36.50/hr.
I have extensive experience teaching students of all ages. I was a middle and high school math teacher, and have experience in curriculum development and teaching in Pre-Algebra, Algebra, Algebra II, and Geometry. I have lived abroad and speak Spanish fluently as well. In addition, I am familiar with the format and keys to success on standardized tests including the SAT and ACT, which I scored highly on as a student. I have taught in a variety of environments, from one-on-one to teaching a class of 37 eighth graders at once. I believe that having high expectations for students and exuding confidence in their abilities results in strengthening their own self-confidence and performance. My students have continually thanked me for my patience and willingness to explain concepts in different ways in order to suit their individual learning style. Teaching and tutoring are the most rewarding a

Heleina P - Black Mountain, NC 28711 (2.4 mi) - Literature Tutor - $37.50/hr.
I have a First Class BA in English from Oxford University and a Masters in Film. After graduating I worked with an educational consultancy where I helped to create learning materials for numerous children and adults, many of whom were learning English as a second language or had dyslexia. This sparked my interest in tutoring. I went on to spend two years working with a prestigious tutoring company, teaching children of all ages. During this time I taught English as a foreign language, French, essay writing techniques, poetry, Latin and elementary mathematics. My oldest student was in his forties and my youngest was three!
I also have experience of acting as a mentor to people with learning difficulties. I believe that education should be a voyage of discovery for both the student and the teacher. All too often students become demotivated and demoralised, losing faith in their instincts

Delaney B - Asheville, NC 28805 (8.1 mi) - Literature Tutor - $34.00/hr.
I have wanted to work with kids all my life. I love the way that they learn and think, and how different it is from adults. I studied Biology at Warren Wilson College in hopes of becoming a high school biology teacher. While at college, I did over one hundred hours of service tutoring and mentoring high school and middle school students in Buncombe County. Since graduating in 2009, I decided to take a break from school, and figure out where I wanted to go in life. I have been working at a local after school for elementary aged kids. This experience has taught me a lot about working with younger children and patience. I believe that a great educator is a great learner. I am always up for learning new things, so that I am able to teach someone else my new skill. I believe in a hands on approach to learning. The more that can be discovered by doing is much more beneficial than just reading

John W - Asheville, NC 28805 (8.4 mi) - Literature Tutor - $38.00/hr.
My teaching style has grown from an understanding that we are all unique learners. While the majority of my teaching style is built upon the concepts of Multiple Intelligence, I have also taught specifically for standardized testing. I believe varied modalities of teaching should be implemented in a way that is most appropriate for the individual learner. I also believe that it is very important to find the individual pace of the student. While it can be difficult for a teacher to give this individualized attention to students in the classroom, tutoring provides an educator with the time to focus on the individual as a unique learner. In general, my intended teaching style is patient, experiential, and engaging while remaining keenly aware of students’ individual needs. After finishing my Bachelor of Arts in English, I decided to teach English as a Second Language in China. I enjoyed my
