Amelia G. - Nashville, TN 37215 (16.6 mi) - Poetry Tutor - $45.00/hr.
As a tutor, I find that it is important to present the material to the students in a way that they can relate to. My job as an educator is to teach them how to learn it and make them want to learn it. I personally do not believe that negative reinforcement is beneficial. Positive responses to students are extremely valuable, even if they may occasionally give the wrong answer. This will give them the motivation to do well. My philosophy is that teaching is part knowledge, part communication, and part intuition. My intuition is necessary to understand where a student is getting stuck. I myself already understand the material; the challenge is to understand why a student does not. A variety of communicative teaching approaches is best. I have learned that different students respond to visual, auditory, or tactile methods. As always, continuous practice is extremely important. I also must

Heather L. - Murfreesboro, TN 37130 (20.9 mi) - Poetry Tutor - $17.50/hr.
I recently graduated with my Bachelors from the University of Tennessee. My degree is in English, but I have tons of experience tutoring in just about everything. The ages I have tutored most is older elementary, middle, and high schools as well as college. I can especially help prepare students for college and help them succeed in college. Since I am closer to the age of the older students, it is much easier for me to connect with the students as well as help them with their needs. Thanks for the opportunity and consideration. Heather

Amanda M. - Franklin, TN 37064 (28.4 mi) - Poetry Tutor - $35.00/hr.
I like to give students the tools and watch them practice using those tools for themselves. I encourage two-way communication. I have been a substitute teacher and tutor for general education and special education students of the Williamson County School District. Before that, I was working with adults and students in a ministry environment back in Texas as a worship leader and music teacher. My education has centered around music, theology, and literature primarily (with a general exposure to various other sciences).

Kristin B. - Franklin, TN 37064 (28.4 mi) - Poetry Tutor - $40.00/hr.
I have five years of teaching experience, including teaching kindergarten students, students who were English language learners, and fifth, sixth, and seventh grade students. My focus has been in reading and language arts, and I have attended several Uncommon Schools trainings for close reading techniques and writing and vocabulary strategies. My previous background and work experience was in writing, and I enjoy teaching students about the different forms of writing, including creative writing, literary analysis, argumentative, and informative. Since I started my teaching career working with students in kindergarten, I deeply understand the foundations of literacy. My experiences with students in middle school has also helped me understand and realize the connection between a strong foundation in English language arts and how it develops in middle school. I am focused on achieving stude

John P - Nashville, TN 37216 (8.7 mi) - Poetry Tutor - $38.00/hr.
I have a deep passion to share my knowledge with people(all ages). I've developed my teaching style to be proactive towards a students needs, goals and commitment. I treat all my students with respect, patience and consideration, with the idea being to help each one work towards maximizing their fullest potential. I also believe it is important to be sensitive to the students ongoing needs as people, to determine the approach best suited to a students learning needs. I would work to employ a different strategy if the current one was not yielding the desired result. I want to make a difference in the lives of the students I teach, and that requires a constant dedication to the discovery of the means to that end. Teaching has been a productive and varied part of my life. I've worked as a substitute for nearly 18 years(1974-1992) in the Champaign-Urbana area school districts in Illinois,

Gretchen R - Nashville, TN 37216 (9.8 mi) - Poetry Tutor - $38.50/hr.
The greatest benefit of teaching, to me, is seeing the look in a child's eyes when he or she finally reaches that understanding of what you are teaching them. The challenge of finding a new way to help a child reach this understanding is what drives me to teach. As each child learns differently, a teacher must be constantly brainstorming new teaching methods in order to reach every student and address each of their individual learning styles. Growing up with more than five teachers in my family, I have always had a deep understanding of the importance of education and a drive to teach others. I recieved my Bachelor's in English from the University of Southern Indiana with the intention of completing a Masters and becomming an instructor at the college level. However, upon completion of my Bachelors, I immediately began teaching at Nashville State Community College as an adjunct engli

Harmonie T - Nashville, TN 37211 (11.2 mi) - Poetry Tutor - $31.50/hr.
I volunteered at a local non-profit, providing tutoring and mentoring services to K-8 students, from 2002 to 2006. I started tutoring a seventh grade student privately in math shortly after that, and continued to tutor her in her home until her sophomore year of high school. I came to her house twice a week to help her with her math homework. I am currently a student at Belmont University, working towards my Masters of Arts in Teaching with middle school licensure. I am a support for students, and I enjoy cheering them on and encouraging them to "get" it. I believe that every student can learn, and I like to help them understand their assigned work. I have patience, consistency, and commitment to students and their families. I believe students already know how to do their work; I just help them bring out the confidence.
