Julia G. - Long Island, ME 04050 (32.9 mi) - Literature Tutor - $25.00/hr.
My motto that accompanies me in everything that I do is "There is no limit to perfection."
And in my teaching practice I am trying to combine verbal, visual, practical and explanatory-illustrative methods. I believe that in form of interaction between pupils and teachers, where teachers and students interact with each other during the lesson, and students are not just passive listeners, but active participants in the lesson, we can achieve bigger success in teaching and learning the material. None of the individual methods is not universal, good results can be achieved just by combining methods together. I passed through huge manufacturing practice and deals with students of different age, needs and interests. It takes me nearly 2 years of all my 6-years continuing studying. I also have a teaching experience. I worked as a Teacher of English language and literature in Public school in K

William K. - Ipswich, MA 01938 (37.4 mi) - Literature Tutor - $30.00/hr.
I consider myself a very laid back person and am flexible in terms of addressing the student's concerns. I primarily work in subjects related to writing. My training is in philosophy, so I tend to focus on helping students develop strong reasoning/arguing skills and a precise voice. I find that these skills, which are heavily emphasized in philosophical writing, carry over well into all forms of academic writing. I have worked at the Salem State University writing center for the last two years. At the writing center, I work with students on papers in all subjects, from math to English. My experience at the center has helped me develop methods for helping students plan and organize papers, and also for addressing grammar and style issues. I also have a lot of experience working with ESL students.

I am a professional writer, currently doing freelance work. I've also published a novel for adults, and I'm revising a novel for children.

UMAINE graduate with ample ESL teaching experience can help you build confidence. I've over eight years teaching experience in both Korea and Japan.
My students were of all ages, abilities, and backgrounds. Most pupils quickly became comfortable in my classroom and learned that it was alright to ask questions. I've taught both pre-set and personally formulated curriculums, handled a variety of classroom issues, and feel comfortable working with any ELL student who needs assistance. Straight forward and student centered.

Richard F - Cape Neddick, NH 03902 (4.8 mi) - Literature Tutor - $38.50/hr.
In working with young adults, I try to unlock my students' potential by helping them discover the immense power that language can convey and that can be at their disposal as both readers and writers. As an avid reader and writer myself, I attempt to instill my own enthusiasm for lifelong learning and to instruct students to hone their critical thinking with an eye to deepening their understanding and to expressing their ideas with clarity and precision. Since attaining my Masters Degree in 1972, I have worked at various jobs in educational and literary publishing, both as an editor and writer, and have taught English and Creative Writing at the high school and undergraduate levels. As a secondary language arts editor and writer, I have broad experience in the creation of grammar, composition, and literature textbooks. I am also an award-winning author of five collections of poetry and ha

Andrew F - Arundel, ME 04046 (10.8 mi) - Literature Tutor - $32.00/hr.
I've always enjoyed helping someone else. There is a certain satisfaction after seeing the look on their face of appreciation. I believe that one on one assistance is very helpful for students who are struggling because sometimes they are afriad to raise questions in the classroom, in fear of only them having trouble. As a recent graduate from Salem State College, I have earned my BA degree in English, with a minor in History. Writing and reading is something I am very passionate about. I have learned different forms of writing, such as analytical, persuassive, reading responses, creative, and so on. With that experience, I have learned grammatical rules for writing that was very important to my success. I have never tutored, but I feel that with my knowledge or writing and reading can be useful to someone who is having difficulties in that area. I work very well one on one and be

Deborah L - Kittery, ME 03904 (12.4 mi) - Literature Tutor - $58.50/hr.
My teaching style was both original and personal.
I have had the opportunity to travel to many parts of the world, and I brought those varied experiences to my teaching.
The students would ask me to tell them stories of my travels.
This was partly to get off the subject matter, but they also enjoyed hearing about different parts of the world as qwell. I taught Language Arts from grades 7-12 for 27 years.
I maintained a classroom,organized my curriculum as well as
doing interdisciplinary projects.
I retired from active teaching in 1999, but I did a brief
period of tutoring with a young child with academic disabilities.
I would really enjoy teaching again and would appreciate any opportunity to achieve this

Justin G - Dover, NH 03820 (13.8 mi) - Literature Tutor - $38.50/hr.
I help point to the truth, aiding the student in discovery. I try to avoid being overly didactic, and prefer to work by asking questions. The most satisfying thing about teaching is being able to witness and participate in the process of comprehension. As an undergraduate I worked at the mathematics tutor lab in our department. As a PhD student I both taught and assisted in the teaching of mathematics courses at the university level. Also I have experience with privately tutoring elementary, jr. high and high school students.

Michelle W - Dover, NH 03820 (14 mi) - Literature Tutor - $40.50/hr.
I love being able to help a student or peer develop and implement new knowledge. I like to take the approach of teaching skill not just content. I am patient and easy going and will try my hardest to ensure that each individual student be treated as such. I thrive in the one on one teaching style and I hope to help each student reach his or her top potential. I would love to help other young writers find their way through the endless maze of grammar, spelling, and help them generate intriguing writing, not just correct writing. I like to think of grammar and spelling as certain tools to use and teach but I like to help a student get to a point where they can be proud and confident in their writing. I graduated in 2009 with my BA in English and am currently pursuing my masters in writing. While at the undergraduate level I learned about all manner of skill in writing from research papers

Cassandra B - Dover, NH 03820 (14.1 mi) - Literature Tutor - $55.00/hr.
Previous students have often remarked on my practical teaching style, relying on real world examples and explanations for business and mathematics. The only way to remember information long term is to relate it to something tangible, especially in subjects like statistics and economics. Relating the ephemeral to the practical is important, and later allows for the information to be used in a real world setting much, much easier. I have tutored people since third grade, and have recently graduated with my masters in business administration with honors. As consistently as I have tutored, I have also excelled in an academic atmosphere and would love to share my knowledge of test taking skills and subject knowledge. I have had a wide focus throughout my experiences, with emphasis on statistics, essay writing, and business theory, and I have also done university research on neurophysics m

I am very comfortable working with students of all ages. I am extremely patient and easy-going with a good sense of humor. I believe in enabling students to become proficient life-long learners. I try to encourage my students to look beyond the textbook in order to achieve greater enrichment in their lives. Learning should not stop at the school doors. In order to be successful in life, students need to learn how to find and utilize resources to help them grow and mature intellectually throughout their lives. It is my ultimate goal to enable students to think critically and become successful life-long learners. Over the past several years I have helped students achieve their potential in a wide variety of educational settings. I have taught several different subjects including social studies, math, reading, and French to students ranging from kindergarten to seniors in high school. Altho
