Chad H. - Oak Ridge, TN 37830 (18.6 mi) - Literature Tutor - $40.00/hr.
I have always emphasized the immeasurable distinction between education and schooling. Although the two are not necessarily mutually exclusive, in our era they are more and more. I strive to draw a student into a fascination with learning. If that occurs, then education is a fait accompli. I taught High School US, World and European history to grades 10 - 12. I taught AP European History and Government. I taught Geography, Civics, and Psychology for 5 years. I have owned my own construction firm for 10 years and worked in manufacturing. My specialty is European History with an emphasis in the classics. My literature background is not formal but is extensive.

Justin L. - Knoxville, TN 37934 (24.9 mi) - Literature Tutor - $20.00/hr.
Through encouragement and with a lot of creative hands on writing experience, I allow the pupil to make the mistakes they normally would and then through subject attention we progress through the necessary adjustments to form a writer who excels and enjoys the field. Current college student at the University of Tennessee Knoxville. Received 5s (the best score) on both AP writing assessments while in high school. Have never received a grade lower than an A in any writing related class during my academic career. I have a knack for teaching and I tutor my peers and friends in college writing courses. I enjoy being around children and find it easy to teach them the necessary processes to succeed after my services are done. I am also very proficient in the French language, as my mother is from Belgium and I took French 1 through AP in high school.

Elizabeth K. - Knoxville, TN 37934 (24.9 mi) - Literature Tutor - $20.00/hr.
Experienced in analysis and responses to literature, from classics like Shakespeare, to Hemingway and Joyce, and contemporaries like Angela Carter. I've been involved in the arts since high school, and I graduated summa cum laude from one of the top arts colleges in the world, Savannah College of Art and Design. I earned a B.F.A in illustration, which I'm currently using to illustrate a series of graphic novels. I also have over 19 years of dance experience, had my poetry and short stories published numerous times, and enjoy working with others on things that we share a passion for. I prefer hands on, a back-and-forth style of learning where both I and the student have something to offer to the session. I like input from my students, and like including real world examples and application of the skills I'm teaching.

Janean J. - Lenoir City, TN 37772 (25.3 mi) - Literature Tutor - $36.50/hr.
My teaching style is a mix of both teacher and student centered. There are times where it is important to give students the information they need as well as examples. Also, it is just as equally important to facilitate students initiating their own learning as this best helps with retaining and demonstrates true comprehension. I have 10 years experience teaching ESL in various settings. Primarily my experience has been in K-12 public schools. However, I have experience in teaching adults and in tutoring adults, as well. My students have varied to professionals seeking to improve English to newly arrived immigrants needing to learn an entire new language. I have had experience with a vast number of ethnicities and languages as well as varied education levels.

A good educator provides discipline and can make a difference in a person's education.
