Olivia P. - Seattle, WA 98112 (31.5 mi) - Journalism Tutor - $40.00/hr.
I’m a Washington State Certified educator with over ten years of experience teaching and tutoring students of all ages. I’ve taught in both alternative and traditional schools, and have tutored a wide range of learners—from homeless youth to gifted students at top performing schools. I earned my B.A. in English Literature and Washington State Teaching Certificate for Secondary Education from Seattle Pacific University in 2009. Currently I'm pursuing a Masters in Clinical Mental Health Counseling, providing a framework to unite behavioral psychology with individualized education for optimal learning. I believe in integrated, holistic education, and I’m particularly passionate about supporting students with learning or behavioral difficulties. My teaching philosophy centers on individualized instruction. Rather than assuming a one-size-fits-all approach, I tailor sessions to meet your stud

Rachel S - Marysville, WA 98271 (4.1 mi) - Journalism Tutor - $43.50/hr.
I have found that tutoring sessions are most effective when they are fun! Many students find it difficult to stay focused, especially after a full school day. For this reason, I prefer to change tasks frequently and use a variety of fun games to switch up the pace of the session. Learning can be frustrating for many students when a particular subject does not come as naturally or easily as other subjects. Thus, I do my best to incorporate student's interests into reward systems and constantly give the student positive feedback about their progress to help motivate the student. I work hard to get to know the student and tailor tasks and activities to their particular learning style. I write with great enthusiasm to apply for the position of Tutor. I recently graduated from Gettysburg College Magna Cum Laude earning my Bachelor of Arts Degree in Psychology and Neuroscience. I have pre

Kelli B - Burlington, WA 98233 (20.8 mi) - Journalism Tutor - $41.00/hr.
While an undergraduate student at a top university, I pushed myself academically. I also focused on trying to help people by teaching resume writing and job interviewing workshops at my university’s Career Development office. Helping fellow students further their careers was very satisfying and inspiring. Upon graduation, I counseled, trained, and equipped American and foreign college-level and graduate students for a non-profit. Later, in graduate school, I worked in Student Affairs, holding workshops, hosting social events, resourcing students and managing print projects. I was also a TA in my two MA programs; I led tutorials, graded coursework, lectured, and conducted research. Teaching others continues to be my life’s passion. I enjoy taking what I know about a subject, weighing what my student's learning style is and then tailoring a lesson so that student best understands the

Wesley S - Fall City, WA 98024 (37.3 mi) - Journalism Tutor - $46.50/hr.
I spent most of my high school and college career honing my writing and reading ability, and through four years of English classes I have developed excellent writing skills. Additionally, my computer and internet knowledge has grown through my studies and professional work. I feel comfortable with all styles of writing, and enjoy discussing writing and reading with all age groups. I also enjoy studying chemistry and science, and I excelled at both in high school and in college. I have been working with students for a year and a half as an after school specialist with the YMCA and a tutor in the Issaquah area. I like to instill in students a desire to learn. It makes it easier for them to have fun learning and easier for me to teach them new subjects. My first goal as a tutor, especially in reading and writing, is to connect with the student and find a topic that interests them. One of t

Mark I - Bremerton, WA 98312 (41 mi) - Journalism Tutor - $43.50/hr.
I believe that every student has potential awaiting discovery, and that reaching that potential is largely a matter of recognizing individual learning styles and providing appropriately matched environments. I am patient, encouraging, and motivational. I believe in the constructivist paradigm of learning, motivating the student to become actively involved in their own process, emphasizing the process, and acting as a facilitator who prompts, mediates, and encourages the student to speculate, discover, and identify their own milestones and manners in learning, creating a fluid, dynamic foundation for future education, not one set of information to be discarded when done. As an editor for both a financial news publisher and a corporate communications consulting firm, my English grammar and comprehension skills had to be perfect in order to successfully convey accurate information suitab

Jason K - North Bend, WA 98045 (44.8 mi) - Journalism Tutor - $43.00/hr.
I first tutored for two years during high school when a family friend asked me to help him teach kids chess at four elementary schools. I thoroughly enjoyed these experiences and developed a patient tutoring style that emphasizes critical listening. I continued to tutor in college, after a professor recommended me to the Central Washington University Writing Center. I trained with eighteen other students and was one of five selected to continue in practicum classes for the 2008-2009 school year. I went on to work as a paid writing consultant for the fall and winter quarters of the 2009-2010 school year and consulted 293 undergraduate and graduate students on writing from a variety of disciplines. If students lack motivation or direction, it’s often because they are trying to perform an advanced task without basic skills. For example, many students know about the “five-paragraph essay” fo
