Wendy P. - Okemos, MI 48864 (40.4 mi) - English ESOL Tutor - $22.50/hr.
Minor in teaching English as a second language. Experience with working with students in Thailand. I have taught a large array of children and adults, anywhere from a 2nd grader struggling with reading to adult Burmese refugees. I have the patience and flexibility to successfully work with anyone. I started tutoring when I was around the age of 13. I taught a young Korean girl English, where I would have to create my own lesson plans. While I attended Okemos high school, I partook in volunteering experiences that dealt with tutoring. For two years, I was placed at an elementary school where I would tutor 1st-5th graders biweekly with anything from basic math to practice with reading. I built strong connections with the children, which I could use to better their learning. At Michigan State University, I spent a semester tutoring at the Boys and Girls club of Lansing. I helped in any kind

Amanda J - Grand Rapids, MI 49505 (25 mi) - English ESOL Tutor - $50.00/hr.
Groups are beneficial because there are a variety of opinions, abilities, and skill levels, thus teaching students the importance of unity in the workplace and classroom. Buddies are important because they give students someone other than the teacher to go to with questions that may seem "silly" and give them someone with whom to share concerns. Books and technology can be used to multi-facet the learning experiences of all students involved, as there may be several types of abilities in the classroom and multiple "intelligences," as well. I am also a proponent of projects that echo what I am currently teaching. I care deeply about the next generation and wish to impart on them a desire to learn. I have seen a student change from a surly individual to one who participated in class and became more consistent in homework. I believe that respect, encouragement, and care can motivate a child

Kristy K - Grand Rapids, MI 49503 (25.6 mi) - English ESOL Tutor - $37.50/hr.
My teaching methods vary depending upon the subject matter and the pupil’s preferences. I enjoy getting to know students and customizing their learning experience to the methods that will best serve them. In the classroom setting, I employ many forms of teaching, including lecture, memorization, demonstration and the Socratic Method when appropriate. I have worked with students from all backgrounds and age levels, and enjoy each student for their own unique personality and potential. I believe that all children can be successful when surrounded by people who care and tools to get them there. As a tutor, I strive to be the most valuable asset in developing the student’s learning skills and their mastery of the subject matter. As a graduate of a Big Ten school, and a current master’s level student, I have had many focuses in school that I can teach in the tutoring setting. I also currently

Kate W - Grand Rapids, MI 49508 (26.1 mi) - English ESOL Tutor - $41.50/hr.
I have recently graduated with an MA in counseling psychology and have come to deeply appreciate academics and the role of education in our lives. As a graduate student, my writing and research skills were sharpened. I have worked as a career counselor for the past 3 years and have led groups and worked with students individually on career issues. While I was in college I was a volunteer tutor with elementary students in reading and writing and some math. With my counseling background, I desire to work with your student to help build his/her confidence in academics, but also confidence in his/her self. Each student has a unique learning style and I will take a collaborative approach to help them discover what works best for who they are. I see myself as a learning coach for students.

Nancy R - Grand Rapids, MI 49503 (27 mi) - English ESOL Tutor - $36.00/hr.
As the eldest daughter of a teacher, it was instilled in me from a young age that I should strive to excel in my educational pursuits as well as other endeavors. Thus, I pursued the highest level of education possible, the doctorate, and also have continued to be a lifelong learner in many fields of study. Though my university degrees have been in the field of music, I have gained vast knowledge in many disciplines through my studies, travels and experience. Also, I have gained teacher certification in the field of TeSOL as a result of my interest and proficiency in English language usage and grammar.
Through several teaching assistantships and a semester sabbatical replacement, I have gained 5 years of university teaching experience. I have also taught for over 3 years as a music teacher in the public schools, as well as over 6 years as a substitute teacher in all grades and subject ar

Tracy T - Grand Rapids, MI 49504 (28.3 mi) - English ESOL Tutor - $40.00/hr.
My basic belief is that as human beings, we all share the goal of being understood. This may sound rather simple, but it is basic to my philosophy. I work to ensure that each of my students feels understood; whether it's a question that they have, a goal they've set, or a frustration they've experienced.
I've found this theory to be very successful in working with elementary children, teenagers, and adults alike. In addition, the enthusiasm I feel toward the process of learning speaks for itself. There is nothing like the light in a student's eyes when the moments of understanding occurs, and when that light goes off, the person will never be the same. I specialize in language, with instruction in English, Spanish, and French. I have a passion for bringing out the best in each student.
I teach ESL to speakers whose primary language is not English, by emphasizing practical speaking ex

Salvador Q - grand rapids, MI 49503 (28.6 mi) - English ESOL Tutor - $55.50/hr.
I try to make the subjects fun for them. For example i bring out cubes, candy, or fruits for math problems so they can visually see the mathamatical problem. If its science I try to make 3D projects so they can better understand, for example the solar system. I try to get there intrest so they can have fun and not be bored and feel like its a waist of time. I know everyone learns in different ways and I understand that because im the same way. Im very patient, and very easy going. My goal is to give them the education they need to succeed in life. What more better experience then to start at home by helping my little brother and sister. For the past five years I have tutored my brother and sister in many different subjects. I have done math, reading, science,history. Basically all elementary subjects.I am Bilingual and speak both English, and Spanish fluently.

Kelly V - East Lansing, MI 48823 (37.1 mi) - English ESOL Tutor - $43.50/hr.
I have worked with students of all ages. I try to vary the type of activities used to learn, from conversation, to repetition, to interactive games. As a German major, I know what is involved in learning a foreign language. I taught German for two years to 1st-3rd graders, taught English language and American culture to 14-19 year old students in Austria, and have some experience teaching English to middle school students. Most of my experience teaching English comes from 8 months of planning lessons and teaching English to Austrians. I have lived in both Germany and Austria, and have studied German for 9 years. I am comfortable and confident in my skills teaching ESL and German, at any level.
