Diana V - ESPANOLA, NM 87532 (22.5 mi) - Elementary Social Studies Tutor - $37.00/hr.
I have an Elementary Education Degree from the College of Santa Fe. While persuing my degree I worked a an instructional assistant in an elementary school. The majority of students I worked with were special needs students. This helps me to understand that all students can learn when their needs are meet. I have been tutoring for about three years now. At first I started tutoring with Tutoring companies. Now I am tutoring students and adults in my community. I tutor in Reading and in Math. I enjoy teaching and working with children. I believe all children can learn and have different styles of learning. I am available to help your child find academic success. I am patient, and kind. My goal is to use my skills to provide the best education possible for all children. I believe all children can meet their potential if they are given the appropriate settings and learning experien

Mary Ann L - El Rito, NM 87530 (23.2 mi) - Elementary Social Studies Tutor - $38.50/hr.
I believe that students need to be challenged. When they are highly challenged, they really produce. In my tutoring experience, my students' test scores rose two grade levels in ten weeks because they were challenged. Previously, these students were thought to not be able to speak, read, or write English, and were pre-testing at very low grade levels. For the first three years out of the university, I was a school librarian, and was board certified K-12 by the Washington State Board of Education as a result of this experience. From 2006-2008, I have been tutoring writing at Northern New Mexico College, from 4th grade remedial level through college papers in all subjects. I am presently working in an Upward Bound program for 9th graders, to help increase their study skills.

Anthony D - Santa Fe, NM 87506 (24.7 mi) - Elementary Social Studies Tutor - $33.00/hr.
I have worked in both industry and government working on a worldwide basis with people of varying cultural backgrounds. I have traveled extensively in my profession. Over the last several years I have been involved with several business and working extensively with the Native American pueblo communities. In terms of tutoring, teaching, or mentoring I have worked with children of all ages in reading and math tutoring principally as a volunteer. Professionally, my work has been in mentoring young adults and technical training. In teaching I am basically a generalist and humanist. My background is in mathematics and the sciences, but with a solid foundation in the humanities. Practically, I have never stopped learning something new and in addition to my formal credential I have done university course work in languages, forestry, animal husbandry, and sports training. I believe my teaching s

Jacqueline Y - Los Alamos, NM 87544 (33 mi) - Elementary Social Studies Tutor - $36.50/hr.
Ideally, teaching styles should be individually tailored to the student's needs. The one-on-one environment of tutoring offers an exceptional opportunity to do this! The learning styles of students vary widely; however, I believe all students respond to an approach which includes kindness, respect, persistence, and the acceptance of the student as an individual. I believe in encouraging students to ask questions, and showing them where to find the answers. Although it took me 15 years to obtain my B.S. in Business Management, I do not view that as a disadvantage. My travels with my military husband enriched my education by enabling me to experience different cultures, and by giving me the opportunity to meet, live among, and work with people of many different backgrounds. I have worked in the Los Alamos school system for the last two years as a Special Education Instructional Assista

James S - Santa Fe, NM 87507 (33.9 mi) - Elementary Social Studies Tutor - $38.00/hr.
I start by making sure the student has a basic understanding, than expanding their understanding and knowledge while encouraging questions and discussion.
Classes I have taught tutored and instructed:
Accounting Basics Management Wine Appreciation
Journal Entrees Structure and Organization
AP/AR Theory
Correcting Balance Sheets Customer Service Training
Chart of Accounts Marketing
Excel Classes Product Cycles
. I believe that people learn the most when they start to question, WHY? It is important to assure the basics are laid out for a solid foundation for the understanding and learning to build upon and from.

Nancy O - Santa Fe, NM 87501 (34.3 mi) - Elementary Social Studies Tutor - $38.50/hr.
I'm passionately interested in encouraging students to find personal connections to their education, so that they are actively engaged in their own learning. Engagement is essential for meaningful education. I also try to understand what approach will work best with a particular student: what are his interests? his strengths? how does he learn best?
There are no simple formulas; but once I understand my student's interests and learning styles and have established a caring relationship, I use my experience and intuition to help him learn. I have extensive experience in education in a variety of learning environments. I began my apprenticeship in academia as a peer tutor for the College of Santa Fe's Student Support Services/TRIO Program (program of academic support for first generation, low-income students and students with learning differences or physical disabilities). I tutored studen

Felicia C - Santa Fe, NM 87501 (34.4 mi) - Elementary Social Studies Tutor - $36.50/hr.
My philosophy for effective education is comprised of six components creativity, character, culture, civic capacity, shared governance and student centeredness. I believe student centeredness is the trunk and the other components are the branches. Each component is connected to the other and they share common characteristics. For me teaching is about making the connection for students between the literature, writing, piece of art or media and their lives. By using the six components I can facilitate the learning process and enable my students to find a thread of meaning in the lessons I present. I believe that education is exciting and enriching to a students life when lessons don’t consist of memorizing facts, but examining the entire context of a work. I have classroom experience at the elementary and secondary level. While working on my AA degree I worked at a high school in a Languag

Mary Patricia R - Santa Fe, NM 87507 (36.7 mi) - Elementary Social Studies Tutor - $57.50/hr.
My style of teaching, especially with tutoring, is to find out
what kind of learner my student is: tacit, oral, or verbal.
Then the lesson style can be geared to that, while leading the student to become more aware of the other abilities and options.
Also, it is imperative that students understand why they are learning what is being presented to them. Cause and effect leads
to greater awareness and more objective, analytical, and critical
thinking. Creating a reason and success in learning, making it
practical and fun can lead any child to want to continue to
grow in any area of interest, and tie that back to other skills
which my not be so appealing at this point in their life. I have taught and been certified in four states. Grades 7-9 is the level I prefer, though I have taught at the Junior College level also. History is my major, and having spent much of my
