Stephanie D - macon, MS 39341 (29.2 mi) - Communications Tutor - $32.50/hr.
As a graduate of a small junior college I believe one on one teaching gives students the advantage over a large group because the child can receive the necessary attention for learning skills in reading, writing and math. Many children learn differently some are visual learners,some are audio etc. I have been instructed through various techniques in reading with chilldren that will help them achieve a higher reading level of success. I am a hands on person where math is concerned allowing the child to use mannipulatives. Taking time to explain until they understand. In reading we can do shared reading and other techniques. I have a great joy working with children because most of them are eager to learn. Along with patience and proper instruction I am a firm believer the scores will be achieved without the child feeling diappointed. I believe through visual picture walks and other tech

Laura Jean K - Starkville, MS 39759 (32.7 mi) - Communications Tutor - $36.50/hr.
I have a love of learning and especially learning about people. This love lead me to earn a bachelors degree in Psychology and a masters degree in Sociology, which has enabled me to gain an understanding of students' persepectives. Although I have extensive experience in grammatical skills through writing research papers and essays, my skills in reading comprehension are my strength. I work with assessments both summative and formative on a daily basis. I find it important to ensure that the student understands one concept before moving on to mastering a second concept. I believe that all students can learn; however, the way in which a student learns may be different. Therefore, I use short formative assessments throughout teaching to measure the student's knowledge and understanding. Finally, I ensure that the student can generalize or apply the concept. These two points, recounti

Jeffrey A - Starkville, MS 39759 (33.1 mi) - Communications Tutor - $34.50/hr.
My teaching style varies based on the age of the student. I like to be a little more animated with my k-6 graders. On the other hand, with my 7-12 graders I focus more so on making a connection with the material--showing them how it relates to them. I have always enjoyed assisting our youth work through various academic endeavors. I have been tutoring grades k-12 for several years now. I have helped all ages with a wide variety of assignments.

Victoria B - Starkville, MS 39759 (33.1 mi) - Communications Tutor - $30.00/hr.
Each student is a unique individual who needs a secure, caring, and stimulating atmosphere in which to mature emotionally, physically and socially. As a potential educator, it is my responsibility to help every student meet his or her fullest potential by providing an environment that would allow them to grow.
There are three elements that I believe are conducive to establishing such an environment, (1) the Instructor acting as a guide, (2) allowing the student’s curiosity about the subject matter direct his/her style of learning and (3) promoting respect for all things and all people. As a graduate of Alcorn State University, I have become very resourceful, which helps me to point others in the right direction. In civil, volunteer, and academic work, I have gained experience in team leadership, excellent written and verbal skills, and youth education.

LOY T - BRANDON, MS 39047 (50.5 mi) - Communications Tutor - $36.50/hr.
When I have "tutored" fellow colleagues and students in the past, I have learned that one must be creative in their teaching so that every person can learn in their own way. Creativity is the key to helping a person understand, even playful games have their place in teaching. I have always been a team player and have excellent interpersonal skills. Also, I will be taking the Praxis I tomorrow in preparation of teaching in the fall.
*(In the above question on years of experience, the "20" years are of teaching/tutoring of colleagues and fellow students, not tutoring in a formal sense.) Through several college degrees, I have taken extra courses in English; I have enjoyed learning the correct way of writing, proper grammar usage, and how sentences are successfully crafted. The area of "words" fascinate me, and I have continued improving my knowledge of the English language over the ye

Angela S - Columbus, MS 39705 (51.2 mi) - Communications Tutor - $37.50/hr.
I teach by talking to the student, finding what they relate to and using that information in correlation with their studies to help them better understand the subject. As well as using simple steps to solve a larger problem, breaking down a problem into smaller ones helps a student to solve something one step at time. I’m looking forward to helping our future leaders. I am a graduate of a major university and have several degrees: BS in Clothing, Merchandising and Textiles, AA in Political and Economic Science, as well as two minors, one in General Business and the other in Communications. They have all enabled me to learn and understand a wide range of different areas: English, math, science, accounting, and writing. Also I am well versed in History. In my college experience I have had to accomplish writing successful papers, understand general math as well as business math, I can bri
