Ellen F - Des Moines, IA 50322-1650 (41.5 mi) - Testing Strategies Tutor - $34.50/hr.
I am a patient teacher who strives to identify goals and help learners achieve those goals. People learn in different ways, and I have background experience in determining what works best and applying those methods. A teacher's positive, encouraging attitude is key to learning success. I taught English at the secondary level for 17 years (2 years - jr high, 15 years - high school) in Iowa (12 years), Texas (4 years), and Ohio (2 years). I taught all English curriculum courses over time, with a focus on composition, speech communication, American & British Literature, and World Literature. In addition I directed plays and coached students for speech contests. I earned an MA degree in English/Business & Technical Communication.I have worked in the business world as a technical trainer, technical writer, business analyst, and project manager.

Michael W - Des Moines, IA, IA 50310 (43.9 mi) - Testing Strategies Tutor - $36.50/hr.
I am currently a teaching assistant for the Simpson College English Department. I selected the books for the semester, drafted the curriculum, and I instruct classes. I also hold advisory office hours. I teach poetry, fiction and nonfiction.
In addition to these things, I am a poet and fiction writer with a high level of experience and craft, and can assist students in expressing themselves creatively. My approach for each class is to focus on the text and do exercises that give students the opportunity to work with the text first-hand. I focus on troublesome areas and I spend many hours planning each class. I prefer to let students come up with their own decisions, and craft their responses into the key ideas of the lesson. I believe that flexibility is key, and this strategy makes the students feel comfortable with discussing and thinking on their own terms.

Jeff R - Des Moines, IA 50316 (45.9 mi) - Testing Strategies Tutor - $37.50/hr.
The core principle I hold to as an educator is that to be a great teacher I must also be a great student. A willingness to expand one’s knowledge and points of view by interaction with colleagues, students and the professional world which ones teaches about is the best way to insure that students respect you and the information that you give them. If students are taught by a malleable mind, then their minds, too, will be equally flexible. By understanding that all students possess multiple intelligences, and that those intelligences vary from student to student, teachers and tutors should guide instruction towards both the intelligences a student naturally possesses and those that need development. Another successful tool in motivating students is to make sure they know you are there for them beyond your time together and that you take an interest in their entire education. My underg
