Martin L - Cedar Rapids, IA 52402 (23.7 mi) - Biology Tutor - $35.50/hr.
Effective teaching requires goal-setting and patience on the parts of both the instructor and the student. We are a team! I am simply there to facilitate their education.
Most of what I teach is enhanced by my approach to helping the student learn. I seek to ask them to "teach" me by offering questions to them. This has proven very effective once the foundational background is established.
My commitment as I approach a teaching opportunity is my belief that students can learn anything for which they both plan and focus when they are encouraged to believe in their ability to succeed. It is my job to help this to come to fruition. With more than nine years of business experience in both Finance and Operations management and five years as a homemaker raising my four children, I have a very diverse level of experience which I will provide as a tutor. I have developed a complete battery

Michelle M - Cedar Rapids, IA 52403 (23.8 mi) - Biology Tutor - $38.00/hr.
I have always had a strong appreciation for education and learning new things. My educational experience was strengthened when I attended Cornell College, which has a strong liberal arts program. I immediately took an interest in the sciences and pursued a Bachelor's degree in Biology/Pre-medicine. My education was additionally complimented when I immersed myself in several language, mathematic, English, and humanity courses, which gave me a strong diversity in the liberal arts curriculum. Due to the smaller class sizes at Cornell, most of the exams were given in essay form, which strengthened my writing skills immensely. During the course of the last 11 years after graduating, I have tutored students in English, mathematics, and the sciences. It is both amazing and fulfilling for me to utilize my education and communication skills to assist both children and adults in learning to better

Benjamin H - Iowa City, IA 52242 (27.5 mi) - Biology Tutor - $32.50/hr.
My personal pedagogic philosophy ranks above all else thoughtfulness, compassion, individual attention to each student, and a dynamic, interactive understanding of the process of learning. I treat my students with the utmost respect for their intelligence and independence of mind and spirit. I attended Sarah Lawrence College, where I studied English and Spanish literature, Ancient Greek, history and philosophy. I graduated with an MFA in English from the Iowa Writers’ Workshop in May of 2008, and I am currently the Provost’s Post-Graduate Writing Fellow in fiction at the University of Iowa. I have three years of experience teaching college students in English and creative writing. I have also occasionally tutored students at the University of Iowa in Ancient Greek.

Andrew A - Iowa City, IA 52245 (27.9 mi) - Biology Tutor - $36.00/hr.
Because of my elementary background, it is safe to say I am a very patient person and I use that skill in my ability. I allow the children to create their own paths and when there are roadblocks we work together to find a solution. I am not in the habit of giving students the answers. I feel education is most effective when self discovery is involved and I want my students to feel that they are learning and achieving in every way possible. All students are capable of success; some just need more guidance than others. My teaching experience has been primarily focused on elementary education, however I have tutored freshman in English and History. I have a degree in psychology from St. Ambrose in Davenport and finished my licensure at Ottawa University in Phoenix. I am certified to teach K-6 in Arizona and I have applied for Iowa certification.

Vishal Kumar S - Iowa City, IA 52240 (27.9 mi) - Biology Tutor - $35.50/hr.
From my teaching experience at the University of Iowa, I think that the level of understanding of the subject varies from student to student. Some students grasp the subject easily while it is hard for others. Therefore I always try to teach the subject in a manner that will consider all the different levels of students and in which questions are encouraged. I have earned two MS degrees and a BS degree in chemistry in my academic career. I have two-and-a-half year experience of teaching undergraduate students at the University of Iowa. I received a very good evaluation from students which I would be happy to share with you. I have also passed SPEAK TEST along with the English Language Performance Test which is a requirement to be able to teach at the University of Iowa.

Brooke V - Coralville, IA 52241 (28.3 mi) - Biology Tutor - $33.00/hr.
I cannot think of anything more rewarding than teaching and working with young people of all ages because of all that I can contribute to their lives. I strive to meet each student where they are, no matter what level, and yet meet the needs of the group as a whole. As I also believe that anyone can learn, my desire is to provide the best opportunities that I can so that they can realize their full potential and know that they are all important members of society who have something of their own to contribute and that I can learn from as well. As a graduate of Bethel University, I am currently pursuing a teaching career and am committed to excellence. While I was at Bethel, I earned two bachelor degrees, one in Creative Writing and one in Spanish. I assisted numerous friends by copy editing their essays, showing them where I saw they could improve while affirming where I saw their strengt

I am currently a PhD student in Chemistry and hold education in high regard. I believe education is the key to success in any field. I have a excellent grasp of the Sciences and Math coupled with excellent writing skills. From my undergraduate years I have tutored and mentored students in subjects ranging from Chemistry to Math, SAT, both Verbal and Quantitative sections, and English. I strive to make the student better and ultimately independent. I teach to instill the love of education in the student and give the student my best. I work with the students and adapt well to the students needs, as each student is unique and may require a different approach. My goal is to ensure that the student understands the material without being rushed and can fully comprehend how different problems are solved.

Joe A - Iowa City, IA 52246 (29.5 mi) - Biology Tutor - $35.00/hr.
I have been a teacher and professor now for about half of my life. I have taught various science subjects to students of diverse abilities. This includes students at the junior high level to medical students. Despite the age difference there are a number of characteristic traits that remain constant in every learner. The job of a professor is to listen to the student and gauge the level of understanding of the topic and steer the learner to correct answer. This is achievable in any topic with any student. Biological sciences are good example of this strategy. Online teaching/tutoring is the future of science. Over the years and the number of students I taught, I have learn a lot. Anatomy, neuroanatomy and neuroscience for example are topics that need an in-depth and rigorous learning. At the same time it will be the most rewording endeavor the student would have ever attempted.

Enselme F - Muscatine, IA 52761 (34.3 mi) - Biology Tutor - $34.50/hr.
My teaching style is sample: Bringing the topic to the student understanding level and be positive about it. I believe that students need to put in a little more effort without which they cannot achieve their learning goals. I am for giving students simple examples related to real life and they can easily understand the concepts I earned both my Masters' and Bachelors' degrees with honors from Southern Illinois University at Carbondale. During my academic I learned to excel in everything I do, which help me master the accounting knowledge I have today. While at SIUC, I was also involved in many student organizations such as Beta Alpha Psi, Accounting Society, and NABA. I was the tutoring chair for Beta Alpha Psi for two years and have acquired very good teaching skills. The Director of the School of Accountancy will be a good reference when you need one.

Ashleigh V - Davenport, IA 52806 (37.6 mi) - Biology Tutor - $59.50/hr.
As early as I can remember I have always wanted to have a degree that involved children. So i decided to go to college to become an Elementary School teacher. I graduated from Black Hawk College where I earned my associates degree. After completion of my associates I then transfered to Western Illinois University. I majored in Elementary Education K-9. After graduating in December of 2009 I started subbing in the Moline and Rock Island School Districts. After subbing I then took an 2010-1011 opening for a Resource Para in the Moline School District. I work with students in grades 1-3 at Butterworth Elementary. I would love to someday become a teacher and have my own classroom just like my husband. I love teaching and assisting children in all grade levels to succeed. I do believe that all children can learn, and that each child is different. I am very patient, kind, considerate, and ene

Michael C - Davenport, IA 52804 (38 mi) - Biology Tutor - $42.50/hr.
I feel I have a unique teaching style. Because I have tutored students from sophomore in high school to sophomore in college, I have learned to tailor my teaching style to each specific student. For instance, I have used mnemonics, assignment homework assignments, and suggested drawing diagrams or rewriting notes to help students learn. Additionally, I am a highly dedicated individual and will not ever give up or quit on any student who wants to learn. I also believe it is important to develop a relationship with the student to provide a foundation of trust. I attended the University of Northern Iowa as an undergraduate where I received a bachelor’s degree in biology in May 2009. Beginning in August I will be attending Des Moines University where I will be pursuing a career as a doctor. Aside from having a passion for learning, I also greatly enjoy helping others.
