We, of course, cover the required instruction but I like to have fun. It is important the kids think they have a say so. I love teaching and working with kids.

Ashley P. - Southaven, MS 38671 (4.3 mi) - Writing Tutor - $32.50/hr.
For math problems, I usually work problems and explain each step, and then have the student attempt to work a similiar one when they feel like they understand the problems. I try to be as helpful as possible while still focusing on the goal of total understanding for the student, as well as the ability to work a similiar problem independently with confidence. For paper writing, I would have the student brainstorm some ideas, and then together we could discuss the pro's and con's of the topic and organization choice, and provide tips on how we could better the assignment. I am willing to give as much or as little help as a parent would prefer, as good grades are one goal but the students mastery of the material is the most important. I have not tutored publicly before, but have tutored friends children/ family members for standardized tests such as the high school history and english stat

Kaitlyn P. - Hernando, MS 38632 (5.3 mi) - Writing Tutor - $30.00/hr.
In high school, I was frequently the one that people came to for help. It was then that I realized I was extremely good at teaching. My senior year, I spent all day helping four different math teachers, one of which was frequently absent. In order to keep her class from falling behind, she had me make notes and go over practice problems with her classes. I spent quite a bit of my free time working on notes and worksheets, and giving step by step instructions to other children. In addition, I tutored other people who were having trouble for extra money. I also have a little brother and little sister that I spend a good bit of time going over homework and preparing for tests. I have the necessary experience to help pull your child's grades up. My teaching style will depend on your child's needs. I have found that the easiest way is to make notes and practice problems to go over, then allow

Tammy H. - Memphis, TN 38111 (13.8 mi) - Writing Tutor - $40.00/hr.
I believe that happy people not only learn faster, but they also retain more. Far too much of our kids' lives are spent cooped up indoors. Therefore, I like to take an open-door approach to learning and like to schedule as many sessions as possible out of the house/library/etc. Each session is guaranteed to be filled with fun learning experiences that the pupil will be sure to remember. A session with a child that needs reading/spelling/comprehension, for instance, could very well be done at the zoo. I want my kids to learn, and have fun doing it! Our planet has so much to offer in the ways of educating our children! I never have to look far to find a teaching/learning opportunity! Currently a junior at the University of Memphis, I am seeking a Bachelor's degree in English. I love to write, and have always been the dictionary for people, so my concentration is in Creative Writing. I have

Kirkland H. - Memphis, TN 38125 (14 mi) - Writing Tutor - $40.00/hr.
I have been in educator for over 10 years. I started teaching because of my volunteer work at the Memphis Literacy Council. I love teaching because I believe that education is the key to our country's future in this global competitive marketplace. We must prepare our children for the challenges of tomorrow because we live in such a dynamic world. I believe that every child can learn regardless of his or her situation. When given enough time on task and effective, instruction all kids learn. This is what I do.
