Richard H - Mystic, CT 06355 (4.6 mi) - Testing Skills Tutor - $41.50/hr.
Friends and colleagues often tell me that I should have been a teacher instead of an entrepreneur based on my clarity of expression and passion for instructing. I instinctively augment my spoken word with drawings, gestures or other “reference systems” to help learners grasp the necessary background and repeat processes on their own. I prefer incremental check-ins to make sure students understand intermediate steps and apply theoretical concepts to real life situations whenever possible. Most of all, I have boundless enthusiasm for these topics which further engages my students in the process of learning. Though my educational background tells of a ‘numbers’ background (economics, MBA), I consider myself a strong communicator and leader, too. I was fortunate to attend a leading high school, which gave me the foundations to excel at Colby College (undergraduate, magna cum laude) and l

Amanda B - Uncasville, CT 06382 (12.1 mi) - Testing Skills Tutor - $40.50/hr.
I have recently graduated from Roger Williams University in Bristol, Rhode Island. While attending university, I studied various courses- natural science, social science, criminal justice, biology- but my true passion lies in foreign language. French and Portuguese were my primary languages studied. I am pleased to say that I was lucky enough to have studied abroad for a semester in Paris, France. Throughout my life, I have tutored colleagues (though in a non-professional setting) in foreign language. My philosophy is that education should be as individualized as possible because people do not learn in the same manner. For instance, some people are visual learners while others, like myself, are auditory learners. I strongly believe that educators should expose their students to as many fields and ideas as possible. For instance, when I am teaching, I prefer to instruct students on differ

Shelley S - Griswold, CT 06351 (12.2 mi) - Testing Skills Tutor - $50.50/hr.
Every child has his/her own learning style. I think it is important to first determine how each child best learns – either visual, auditory, or tactile. I can then tailor my instruction to the needs of each student. In general, I believe that people learn best by ‘doing’. I believe that students should be able to ask questions or discuss relevant experiences during lessons – this kind of dialogue makes the instruction memorable and meaningful to students. The key to one-on-one instruction is patience and understanding of the child’s needs. Little in life is as rewarding as when a child says, ‘Oh, NOW I get it’. As a wildlife biologist for 15 years, I spent a good portion of my career giving presentations to a wide variety of audiences and educating people one-on-one about environmental issues. I have both Bachelor of Science and Master of Science degrees. I recently underwent a

Victoria L - Norwich, CT 06360 (13.2 mi) - Testing Skills Tutor - $38.50/hr.
My experiences have taught me that a cookie-cutter teaching style is not suitable for every individual. My responsibility is to quickly identify the students weaknesses and turn them into their STRENGTH!
I am a every interactive teacher. It is my strong belief that anyone can succeed with the proper motivation, reinforcement and tools. My tutoring style emphasizes the student as an active participant in the learning process. With an approach that is clear, reliable, friendly, and personal, I look forward to helping a student succeed in their academic career.
I do not have one specific teaching style, but rather have several styles that I implement based on each students specific needs. I understand that finding the right tutor can be confusing and time consuming.
My specialty is to offer a customized experience to each student. I recently graduated 'Summa Cum Laude' from East

Tyson B - East Matunuck, RI 02879 (16.5 mi) - Testing Skills Tutor - $39.00/hr.
I recently graduated cum laude from the University of Rhode Island with two Bachelors of Science in Marine Geology and Maritime Law. I teach sailing and environmental education in the summers.
This means very little however as I aspire, one day, to become a lighthouse keeper. Sadly, few can find such a position these days.
I enjoy writing, science, mathematics, literature and most all music. When I taught sailing to young kids, I used to dress up like a pirate. I have lots of energy. I know I'm doing my job right when kids start laughing.
When I taught to teenagers, I kept in mind my own experiences at that age.
If I'm helping a student study hard on that big, important test that might have the ability to crush the student's soul - I bust out my acoustic guitar and sing about how It's The End of The World As We Know It (And This Test Means Very Little In The Long Run).

Alex A - Warwick, RI 02886 (27.5 mi) - Testing Skills Tutor - $39.00/hr.
As a college and high school football coach, I learned first-hand how to motivate and teach people the correct techniques for playing and helped them prepare for games. I learned to formulate productive professional relationships that were the foundation for success for the players themselves. As a business management major, I honed my writing and presentation skills, as well as math skills in the preparation of financial data. Having coached football for 6 years, I developed crucial teaching skills and effective ways of connecting with students/players. I was also involved in tutoring as I coached. I have tutored history, English, math, SATs, and economics/personal finance. I am a firm believer in complete individualized, unique attention. It is critical to identify what motivates students and what techniques work best for them, and then work to enhance those skills and apply them to al
