Jill T - Redding, CA 96002 (23.8 mi) - Psychology Tutor - $44.50/hr.
From my doctoral training at UCLA I became an expert within the biological sciences, and have been trained to teach complex concepts to people of diverse background. I mentored undergraduates within the lab, which involved teaching important concepts and technical procedures, and helping develop their oral and written communication skills through the generation of presentations and lab reports. I was a Teaching Assistant for undergraduate courses where I led discussion sections and composed and graded quizzes and exams. Lastly, I was a Graduate Student Mentor within the Undergraduate Research Center/Center for Academic Research Excellence, where I administered tailored workshops and one-on-one meetings to students of diverse background. My main goal is to provide students with tools that will advance them personally and professionally. To achieve this, students need to understand how the

Diana H - Redding, CA 96002 (26.4 mi) - Psychology Tutor - $46.00/hr.
In 2009, I was a professional tutor(as opposed to a peer-tutor) for the Biology Department of Ulster County Community College, NY, for students struggling with: Bio 100 for non-science majors, Bio 101—an intro course for those planning to continue but lacking a strong background, Bio 105—General Bio required by all biology-related programs, and Bio 109—Human Bio for non-science majors. I noted that if students needed Biology assistance, they often needed Chemistry assistance also, so the basics of that had to be included in order for topics like macromolecules and cellular respiration to make any true sense at all.
I have substitute taught for the past four years, and conducted two graduate field studies. I strive to make connections to real life by using real specimens when possible, familiar situations, manipulatives, current events, and such to facilitate comprehension. I fo

Diane H - Redding, DC 96003 (31.2 mi) - Psychology Tutor - $43.50/hr.
I believe that every person has a specific set of gifts, talents and abilities that is unique to each of us. Education, through its varied forms, is vital in the process of equipping children with the ability to grow and walk in their fullness so that they are confident in contributing their part to the world. With this belief, teaching must start with the person and then move to the content. I very much enjoy the process of teaching and learning with others. And, although I am now highly educated, I struggled, at times, in school. I went from being "in the lowest reading group" in third grade to graduating with honors in college. Through my own journey of learning how to learn, I am an insightful and caring teacher. Working as a High School English teacher for seven years, in Alternative Education, has greatly honed my skills in assisting students to excel. Teaching critical thin

Christopher B - Chico, CA 95926 (37.9 mi) - Psychology Tutor - $48.50/hr.
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 children for the past year in science; for the first half of the year I tutored students from grades 3-6, and for the second half I tutored students from grades K-3. In the second portion I also assisted in lab and teaching design. 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 th
