Joseph L. - Aylett, VA 23009 (26.8 mi) - Geography Tutor - $32.50/hr.
As far as I can remember I have always appreciated quality education. As a small boy I remember going to the small local library in Portsmouth, Virginia where the Librarian once said that she knew that if she would only have one patron for the day that it would be me.
I have worked in three libraries during my career. During college I was selected as a Librarian Assitant based on my interest, academic achievement and overall poitive conduct at the university. After college later on in my carer after college I worked at both the Main Branch and one of the other locations in the City of Richmond, Virginia.
I believe that education is key to success early in life and that a good education make a sound foundation for later success in life. This is one of the driving forces that causes me to have an interest in tutoring to assist students in becoming strong in areas of weakness. Further

Phillip M. - Mechanicsville, VA 23111 (36.3 mi) - Geography Tutor - $30.00/hr.
I have over 10 years of experience in the education field with a special love for tutoring Mathematics. My experience is extensive as I ran my own tutoring business for 3 years doing mostly freelance work in college. The unique thing about my experience is that I have tutored ages 8-28 through my many recipients. I have a knack for getting children and adults excited to learn whether it is through motivation outside the subject area, or showing them that they can in fact do this. My teaching style is upbeat and positive. If I cannot be excited for my subject areas. Why should any student I tutor?

Merry W - Urbanna, VA 23175 (23.2 mi) - Geography Tutor - $54.50/hr.
Having been devoted to the welfare of children and families and valuing education highly throughout my life, I find tutoring a satisfying occupation. After vounteering my services for many years, I attained formal degrees in education, psychology, and counseling, with very high GPAs. I taught psychology and sociology for several years and have also tutored K-college individually and in groups for many years. Recognizing that each person has his/her own learning style, I emphasize "application" of material learned. I do this primarily by providing examples of information taught and require my students to do the same. My approach to teaching is to create a friendly environment with positive expectations to enhance the learning experience.

Kevin D - Mechanicsville, VA 23111 (38.1 mi) - Geography Tutor - $36.50/hr.
I am a patient, friendly, and fun individual. Like I tell my own children, I believe that teaching and learning is a two-way street. It's important for teachers to engage students, to help them discover, to guide them in their learning. There's a good deal of back-and-forth initially to determine a good learning program, and it takes constant evaluation to make sure it works. I encourage students to ask questions and speak up when they do not understand. It can make all the difference in a learning environment, but it's the kind of difference I seek to achieve. I am an Account Executive with Epitome Networks, a Richmond tech firm. I have more than 20 years of experience in business development and journalism, and I have worked at companies of all sizes -- from start-up firms to Fortune 100 companies. I have an MS in Mass Communications and a BA in English. I have tutored children and adu

Bonnie T - Highland Springs, VA 23075 (41.1 mi) - Geography Tutor - $41.50/hr.
I have been a volunteer for various literacy programs for the past several years, focusing primarily on phonics rather than sight reading. I have worked in two group homes for dually diagnosed adults, meaning both physically and mentally challenged. I went to school online at Ashford University, for 2 years in an accelerated Bachelor's Degree program with a focus on education.
With an inborn gift of language art skills and being a tutor for about the past 20 years, I have learned how to relate easily to any age group or functioning level. I am a creative teacher, meaning that I assess the individual and do not have an agenda that I adhere to. Normally, I am able to advance a child a grade level in reading with three months of tutoring and reinforcing homework, during the summer. However, I will go the extra mile to help a student be able to totally understand what I am trying to help

Alonda A - Richmond, VA 23223 (42.5 mi) - Geography Tutor - $38.00/hr.
I love working with children. When i was younger I had a job helping my aunt with her daycare business. I have five nieces and nephews, six siblings, two god children and one Daughter. I have always been a patient woman and Nurturing comes natural because I am a mother. I too, believe that all children can meet their potential. They all have to be in an calm secure environment. Children also have to feel comfortable around there peers and teacher in order to learn. My goal is to not only teach children, but also to help build character. Children are the future; they should be intelligent and be a good person. Completing my four years at Savannah College of Art and Design, has helped me to reinsure myself that I am capable of completing all of my goals that I set for myself. The creative skills that I have had instilled in me have also been acknowledged and rewarded. I have received my Ba

Alyssa F - Richmond, VA 23228 (45.2 mi) - Geography Tutor - $52.00/hr.
I firmly believe ALL children can learn, but not everyone learns in the same way. I do my best to make a positive difference in their lives. I'm very patient and always listen to my students. I give my students tips to help them learn something and get them to repeat information back to me as we work so I know they understand. I give immediate feedback while working with my students and, when working one-on-one or in small groups, I will sit down and work side-by-side with them. I work with students I'm tutoring in as comfortable and familiar a place as possible, yet with as few distractions as possible, to promote learning. I have spent most of my adult life helping children learn. I have worked in childcare facilities, as well as in public and private schools and as a private tutor. I have taught or worked with preschoolers through 5th graders. I've worked with special needs children,
