Moriah W. - Hattiesburg, MS 39401 (34.7 mi) - Creative Writing Tutor - $30.00/hr.
The pen is mightier than the sword! Through creative writing, students will feel the full benefit of this old-but-true statement. Students will look at the building blocks of story in order to better communicate themselves. Students will learn the power of flow and dynamic story in order to better communicate with others. Students will garner and awareness for the human condition in order to learn to write more powerfully. Hands on, project based. Whether with a group or one-on-one, I consider learning to be best experienced when all five senses are utilized to their maximum potential. Students of all ages will learn through creative game play, creative projects, and creative writing. Throughout undergraduate and now graduate work, I have always had a passion for passing along what I know, in hopes of teaching and inspiring, and developing others. I have two years of private-school

Sophia H. - Mobile, AL 36695 (38.1 mi) - Creative Writing Tutor - $35.00/hr.
I'm a certified special education teacher that has taught in MCPSS for over a year. I have worked with kids of all abilities and I would be thrilled to tutor your child and support them in the educational system. I have a library of resources to pull from while working with students. I truly understand about individualized tutoring services. When one technique is not working, then you search for another strategy. For kids with disabilities, you have to continually be thinking outside of the box.

Debbie L. - Columbia, MS 39429 (49 mi) - Creative Writing Tutor - $35.00/hr.
I stopped working in the hospitals when my oldest child reached the age of 5, so that I could teach my children at home. The four of them are now grown and successful. I employed many techniques during my time homeschooling them, as between them were exhibited several learning styles. It was a delightful experience.

Christy B - Ocean Springs, MS 39564 (24.7 mi) - Creative Writing Tutor - $37.00/hr.
I greatly enjoy seeing the students achieve their learning goals and their yearly progress
In 2000, I began to teach special education and teaching special needs children with learning disabilities. I taught grades 3rd-5th in a self-contained, reading, math, and language skills and middle school grades 6th- 8th.
After Hurricane Katrina, I moved to Pensacola, Fl.

I also taught evening called ged/abe ages 16-adult. I usually work especially well with children who have learning disabilities or emotional and behavioral problems. I believe learning should be fun and creative and that children should have an environment that is friendly and caring to learn in. I think teachers should be patient with their d

Jeffrey P - Gautier, MS 39553 (28 mi) - Creative Writing Tutor - $37.50/hr.
As stated above, I believe the keys to successful training and tutoring is through repetition. I expect a great deal from each student, because I am convinced that we all have the capacity to learn. I feel that the role of a tutor is to facilitate the learning of the student; whereas his or her teacher has the role to teach. Through the strengthening of fundamentals and the building of a solid foundation, the student should be able to find continued success in the present and the future - in and out of the classroom. As a native of the Mississippi Gulf Coast, I am eager to see students of this area excel in their studies. Fortunately, I was able to grasp the subjects of Mathematics and Chemistry, and this has allowed me to enjoy a successful career as a Chemical Engineer. I recognize the challenges that students face, especially in the areas of Mathematics and Chemistry, and I am co

Beverly K - Semmes, AL 36575 (38.9 mi) - Creative Writing Tutor - $34.00/hr.
I have worked both as a substitute teacher and as a certified teacher for around 15 years. I have taught a variety of different courses. I was certified to teach all sciences grades 7-12. However my certification has expired. I have taught both in the private and public sectors of education. I graduated a member of Kappa Delta Pi, as an international honor society. I graduated with a 3.9 G.P.A. I have also worked as a tutor many times within my career. I also worked with troubled teens as a therapeutic foster parent. I have taught all sciences, math, English, literature, reading, history, geography, geology, and religion. I believe that a teacher should be willing to do whatever is necessary for the student to understand the concept(s) being discussed. Students all learn different things in different ways. I have taught a wide range of students both in ages and in ethic backgrounds. I

Carla M - Mobile, AL 36695 (40 mi) - Creative Writing Tutor - $39.50/hr.
I am an educator both by heart and by trade. It is my desire to extend my love of learning to students. This love includes both reading and writing. My philosophy is that if you can teach a person to read, and show that person how reading opens up new avenues of progress for them, the person will never know limitations. As an educator for seven years, I have worked in several different environments and have worn several different hats. I have a BA in English with a concentration in Mass Communications, an MA in Secondary Education with a concentration in Language Arts, and an MA in Educational Leadership and Administration. I have worked as a middle school teacher, a secondary teacher, and as a post-secondary instructor. At the present time, I am an administrator for a drop-out recovery program. I have tutored for several state-mandated tests in Language Arts and Reading. I have worked d

Tocarra C - Hattiesburg, MS 39402 (41.4 mi) - Creative Writing Tutor - $35.50/hr.
I believe that all children should learn no matter what their ability or disability may be. There should be passionate teachers in the field to be able to take on the responsibility of helping children reach their full potential. As an educator, I nurture my students and provide an emotionally, stable atmosphere while maintaining high expectations for all. My goal is to instill the love and passion of learning in every student that I teach. I do not want to touch one life; I want to touch the life of every child that walks through my classroom door. I graduated from the University of Southern Mississippi where I earned a Bachelor’s Degree in Deaf Education. I loved working with the Deaf and Hard of Hearing, but it was extremely hard finding a job doing that in my area. Due to that fact, I started tutoring as many kids from the local schools as much as possible and I loved doing it.
