Janae K. - Salinas, CA 93901 (12 mi) - TOEFL Tutor - $45.00/hr.
I have worked as a tutor for 10 years in all subjects, especially focusing on ESL learners. Recently, I have worked in an ESL school (FLS International) with university age students seeking to matriculate into American Universities. Before that, I worked in South Korea teaching English. While employed at these schools, I also work part-time as a tutor- mostly for middle and high school age students. Many of my students struggle with time management, and this is a main focus in my tutoring sessions. I hate lecturing! I do! This is why my tutoring style is very interactive. I don't like talking AT a person, I prefer to have a conversation. My goal as a tutor is to make subjects interesting, and also to make sure they stick- so you can do well on exams. I also teach study skills in every session, so ideally you won't have to rely on me forever. I try to give students tools that the

Naz S. - San Jose, CA 95111 (27.1 mi) - TOEFL Tutor - $65.00/hr.
Fun, energetic, while producing results. I have a deep love for youth and students as I see them as the light of the world. My duties as a lecturer for three years included test proctoring, full management in regulating/lesson planning accredited undergraduate courses as well as Masters courses. Grading, educating and motivating college students has become a part of my identity! Office hours helped not only my tutoring skills, but also gave me the privilege of getting to know my students better on an individual basis. I loved every minute of it! I am of course TESOL Certified, in addition to having a BA in International Relations from UC Davis. I’ve recently taken on the challenge and privilege of researching, proposing, and instructing a college level TOEFL class designed for my students coming in from China, Taiwan, and Vietnam, to improve student test scores, and test taking tacti

Brian P - Marina, CA 93933 (8.3 mi) - TOEFL Tutor - $45.00/hr.
What interested me in a pursuing a teaching career was the tutoring experience I gained in high school and college. I started tutoring high school students in basic mathematics and science, and in college I was able to broaden my tutoring base to Spanish and English composition.
Regarding my 13 years of professional teaching experience, I have taught at the university, community college, and adult education levels. The courses I have designed and taught range from all levels of English as a Second Language to graduate technical writing and editing. I strongly believe that a successful tutor/teacher must know how to recognize students' individual learning styles and capitalize on their strengths. With all of my students, I make every effort to create a positive learning environment and to build their self-confidence. I have tutored many intelligent students who have developed mental bl

Mary S - Salinas, CA 93906 (9.5 mi) - TOEFL Tutor - $46.50/hr.
As a graduate, I've been very blessed to have received a degree in Business Communication. In college I learned how to become a better educator, and communicate with them on the highest level. Although, I tutor in all of the academic areas, I also enjoy helping my student appreciate the art of becoming a good writer, and thinkers. My students are also encouraged to read for relaxation, and entertainment. Making the education process fun is also an asset. The extensive course work, I received in college has enabled me to teach others to become academically proficient. Teaching can be a most wonderful adventure. I believe every child can learn. At times students or overwhelming with new concepts, and they need to be encouraged, and praise until they can accomplish the task at hand.

Paul K - Pacific Grove, CA 93950 (14.8 mi) - TOEFL Tutor - $50.00/hr.
I have devoted myself to teaching as a profession for the last fourteen years because I feel a sense of worth in what I do. I believe that my role is that of a facilitator. My job is to help students define their goals, explore the resources they have at hand to reach those goals, and facilitate the process of meeting those goals. My choice to teach also rests on a foundation of community. As a college instructor, my worth is tied to more than the success of individual students. I strive to help students become an integral part of the communities in which they live, and I celebrate the fact that I play an instrumental role in the economic, social, and educational edification of my community. I have more than 14 years of experience as a Literature, Language, Business Communications, Technical Writing, and Composition Instructor at the college level. I hold a Master of Arts degree in Engli

Teresa G - San Jose, CA 95125 (28.6 mi) - TOEFL Tutor - $46.50/hr.
I have lived in Spain in college and visited in high school. I've traveled to Mexico, Aruba, Spain, and el caribe. I have taught Spanish, technology and beginning French for more than 10 years. My MA is in Spanish and Learning Styles, and recently I finished my cultural linguistic certificate from Stanford University. Currently I teach teachers technology when I am not helping students with their spanish or english homework. I have a MA degree in Spanish and Learning Styles so I just love teaching. My style is relaxed, as I teach a foreign language. I think feeling comfortable is most important when trying to understand a new lang. I also bring various techniques that include technology, short grammar videos, games, short cult'l videos, songs the STUDENT likes, texts from topics that STUDENTS like, and I customize each training session to get my student up to speed and able to underst

Alain G - San Jose, CA 95128 (30 mi) - TOEFL Tutor - $47.50/hr.
I think I know how to make complicated things look simple. I always make sure students understand what I am saying, by regularly checking their knowledge and asking questions. I am a firm believer in teaching through discovery and in providing a constructivist approach to learning. I believe all students can meet their potential if they are given the appropriate surroundings and learning experiences. As an MS and MBA graduate, I was very much driven to achieve a high level of excellence in education. I have earned two Masters degrees, an MS in Print Media and Paper Manufacturing Engineering and an MBA, which has enabled me to gain an understanding in many areas of math, science, Finance and Marketing. In addition, I have 10 years of experience in Product Marketing in the software computer hardware industry. In my previous positions, I led product launches and go to market plans, I deve

Renu M - Sunnyvale, CA 94086 (34.1 mi) - TOEFL Tutor - $48.50/hr.
My tutoring style is described as follows:
1) I encourage learning by doing
2) I encourage learning by thinking: By interpreting ideas, sythesizing and analysing them and by critical revision of those ideas
3) I encourage students to reflect on their learning
4) I give precise instructions to my students: On what students should do, ways and methods for learning, resources they should use for learning.
5) I pack necessary knowledge and transfer it to students in most efficient ways: I prefer to use visual aids, demonstrate practical examples, write resources (summaries,extracts) for my students.
To sum up, I would do whatever it takes a tutor to help students learn. Tutoring experience: I started tutoring when I was pursuing Bachelors in Science majoring in Math. I taught a variety of students of age group from 5 to 17. I taught Arithematic, Numbers theory, Pre- Algebra,
