Valerie S - Bucksport, ME 04416 (4.9 mi) - Continuing Education Tutor - $38.00/hr.
I first determine the student's learning style so I have an idea what works for him or her.
Learners who have experienced repeated failure need successful experiences to help build self-confidence; I start with what they can do successfully already.
Knowing the individual's interests and talents helps me tie the topic to something important to the student, and to help them understand how the topic relates to their present and future lives.
Finally, helping the individual understand how she or he learns is the key that will allow him or her to take control. I help the student identify strategies and systematic ways to problem-solve so that she or he can develop independence. As a music therapist, I learned to apply my creativity to design instruction that allows the learner to be actively and successfully engaged in learning.
As a special educator, I learned to quickly problem-solv

Jill L - Stonington, ME 04681 (24.4 mi) - Continuing Education Tutor - $34.00/hr.
Teaching for me is a calling. My reward is watching my students grow academically and socially. As a lifelong learner, I seek to ignite a spark for self-discovery in my students' lives. I have experienced firsthand how the arts have helped children grow, providing them with academic and personal success. I know that with the right evironment, structure, and guidance, a child is able to reach for and exceed their potential. I tailor my teaching to draw on each child's strengths and strengthen areas in need of improvement. There are no mistakes only learning opportunities. My passion is the arts. I have explored a variety of areas including fibers, painting, drawing, 3-D, mixed media, collage, clay, graphic design, etc. Skills from all academic areas are used in the arts from math to history. An arts educaiton has been proven to increase learning in these areas and raise test scores

Kristen S - Bar Harbor, ME 04609 (25.3 mi) - Continuing Education Tutor - $33.50/hr.
My teaching experiences have had me in classrooms with age groups ranging from preschoolers to adults. I have been able to adapt my teaching style to suit every group and individual I have worked with, as I recognize the importance of an individualistic approach to education. As every individual learns in a different manner, one-on-one studying with an attentive and adaptive tutor can make a significant difference in a pupil’s performance. My goal is to adapt the learning tools that I possess to the needs of each student, thereby facilitating their excellence in their academic endeavors. While my experiences have encompassed many disciplines and languages, among them German and Russian, my education from Columbia University has provided me a strong background in the liberal arts and humanities. I have strong analytical, compositional and grammatical skills as a result of writing pape

Wendy J - Clinton, ME 04927 (38.9 mi) - Continuing Education Tutor - $36.00/hr.
Everyone has their own way of learning. The key is to figure that way out and use it to their advantage. If the person is a slow learner, then a slower approach is necessary. If the person is a fast learner, then a faster approach is required. I did tutoring as a high school student. I tutored other students in math. The tutoring program also placed me in kindergarten and first grade classes to help the teacher where needed. I have two children that are always asking how to do things. In addition, I have tutored adult friends for the GED test and the Armed Services Vocational Aptitude Battery (ASVAB). I have finished the Income Tax Course with H&R Block at the end of 2010.
