Carl E - Oroville, CA 95966 (3.1 mi) - Study Skills Tutor - $48.00/hr.
As a business and computer educator, I have worked with fourth—sixth grade students, high school youth, and adults. During three decades at Oroville High School and Oroville Adult Education and Career Center, I have taught and used Microsoft Word, Excel, Access, PowerPoint, Publisher and Outlook as well as Accounting, finance, office machines, general and business math. During my last five years as a full-time teacher, I was the school yearbook adviser. In this capacity I used Adobe InDesign and Photoshop extensively. Besides a minor in economics I have a significant background in mathematics and have tutored community college students in algebra as well as accounting. It has been my experience that students are more successful if they can apply and practice any theory to which they may be exposed. Given this notion, I try to provide real world applications to whatever concept I intro

Elaine D - Chico, CA 95928 (14.3 mi) - Study Skills Tutor - $47.00/hr.
I love art and feel very strongly that it should be a very important part of everyone's education. Students are anxious to actively participate. I do a demonstration while I lecture on a particular point, i.e., perspective, form, light, color theory, etc., then let them have time to execute a given assignment in class. At this point I give them personal attention. I have a "critque" at the end of the session and have them participate. I require constructive comments so as not to discourage anyone and to promote the notion that everyone has a unique and valuable point of view . Homework is assigned and I ask students to keep a sketchbook, which should be drawn in daily. I ask to see these ungraded books intermittently throughout the course. I have many years experience as an illustrator and graphic designer, with large and small advertising agencies in Los Angeles. I have taught sculpture

Nicole L - Chico, CA 95928 (14.5 mi) - Study Skills Tutor - $48.00/hr.
As a student who graduated with honors from Sonoma State University in December of 2009, I was driven to achieve the highest level of excellence in education. I have earned my BA in Biology, and have taken 21 units of Chemistry, and 12 units of Math. I have also gained many hours of experience using Word, PowerPoint, and Excel, while writing research papers, laboratory reports, and essays. During the last two years I have tutored in algebra, but I feel very comfortable tutoring in both science and mathematical courses. I have a large passion for sciences, and teaching others. I am a kinesthetic and visual learner, and I understand that determining a students learning abilities is the first key to success with education. My ambition is to provide the best education and learning experience for all I influence. It only took one great teacher in my sixth grade to lead me to my love of scien

Anna M - Chico, CA 95928 (18 mi) - Study Skills Tutor - $44.50/hr.
I have a bachelor's degree in Elementary Education. While earning this degree I was given the opportunity to gain experience in working in various classrooms at many different grade levels. I feel most confident in my teaching skills when working one-on-one with students or in small groups. My age areas of expertise are Kindergarten-6th grade. "How many different ways can I teach a concept?" is the mentality I use when working with students. Every student learns in his/her own unique way. Being creative, adaptive, and fun are essential. I live for that "ah-ha moment" where everything clicks. It's no secret that we succeed in the things that we love doing. I love working with children and I strive to create a learning experience that engages my students. My goal is to leave my students eager to see what's in store for them in the next lesson.

adam z - browns valley, CA 95918 (18.5 mi) - Study Skills Tutor - $43.50/hr.
I have worked with children of all ages in different environments and capacities for the past 20 years. It all started at the YMCA Afterschool and Summer Programs which gave me my first satisfactory feeling for being around young people. That led to substitute teaching and to 6 years in the classroom with 6th graders. For 1 year I taught English as a Foreign Language in Slovenia and Germany. Finally, I yearned for more one on one experience which resulted in being a Independent Study teacher for the past 5 years. I believe my variety of experiences as an educator has prepared me well to help a wide range of students. With my background and degree being in music, I have enjoyed finding creative ways to induce wonder and enthusiasm for learning in my students. I have always accomplished this with the utmost patience, consideration and respect. This last quality in my style (respect of my s

Trevor R - Chico, CA 95926 (19.1 mi) - Study Skills Tutor - $49.50/hr.
As Cal Poly SLO has one of the most competitive engineering programs on the west coast, I have a depth of knowledge in both math and sciences. After earning my B.S. in Biomedical Engineering, I lived in Germany, Ohio, and Central California while trying to figure out my place in this world. I settled for two years in Salinas, California where I taught pre-algebra, algebra, and geometry to junior high and high school students. I believe this level of math is the most important as applications to everyday life are abundant. As the school I taught at was private, the students were very competitive. I found my lectures and class activities reached 90% of the students. The remaining 10% were the students I especially loved to instruct. These students had difficulty learning the subject in a traditional fashion, so I was forced to explain the subject from a different angle. The individu

Christopher B - Chico, CA 95926 (19.3 mi) - Study Skills Tutor - $48.50/hr.
In teaching, I believe it to be very important to gain the student's interest within the subject matter. With an interest comes greater understanding and retention. Providing a structure that can be worked through systematically can be very helpful in the learning process. Not all students are the same, so one-on-one interaction can help provide a teaching/learning style conducive to the individual involved. I hope to provide an adaptive and effective teaching experience for students in need with patience and dedication. During my time as a student studying Biological Sciences, I encountered varying levels of math and science ranging from statistics to calculus and basic biology to various types of advanced physiology. I have taken the opportunity to tutor fellow classmates and younger students in science through the biological honor society, Omicron Theta Epsilon. I have also tutored ch

Jeffrey P - Chcio, CA 95926 (19.5 mi) - Study Skills Tutor - $41.00/hr.
Having earned degrees in PE, Exercise Science, Exercise Physiology and Biomechanics I have a strong science background in subjects such as Biology, Anatomy, Physiology, Kinetics, Biomechanics, Cellular Biology, Physics and Chemistry. In turn many of these subjects require knowledge of advanced mathmatical formulas and statistics. Therefore I am also very strong in math. I have published many articles as well as scientific research which emphasizes my skills in writing and grammar and again supports my knowledge of statistical analysis.
Institutions for which I have taught are CSU Chico, Butte College, Yuba College and The American College Of Sports Medicine. All in all I have well over ten years experience teaching at an advanced level. My teaching style would be that of Guided Discovery. This is a highly interactive style which leads the student to uncover the answer themselves as op

Fritzgerald J - Chico, CA 95926 (19.7 mi) - Study Skills Tutor - $45.00/hr.
I am a firm believer that everyone learns in different ways. This being the case, I like to identify a person's strengths and weaknesses so that I can create an individual plan that is tailored to the specific person. I build upon strengths while addressing weaknesses so that in the end, the student becomes a well-rounded and more effective learner. I believe in challenging students and providing them with the tools to succeed. Most importantly, I am patient and encouraging when working with an individual. In the end, I hope for my students to gain a sense of accomplishment and pride in the progress they make when overcoming obstacles. At the tender age of 25 I have already been admitted into the California State Bar as an attorney. I graduated from the University of California, Irvine earning my Bachelor's degree, with cum laude honors, in only 3 years. Shortly thereafter I atten

This University training really helped prepare me for the world of teaching and tutoring. I feel after all these wonderful years that I can assist any student who wants to learn as well as those who think they don't. My style depends sometimes on
