I have enjoyed teaching children since an early age. In high school, I started my own dance studio. I also began piano lessons in my home as well. During college i studied piano, voice and dance and continued teaching in these areas. I love helping others succeed and seeing them accomplish their goals. I am very patient but like to set practical goals for my students to help them attain their dreams.

Garreth K. - Spring Grove, PA 17362 (42.6 mi) - Journalism Tutor - $25.00/hr.
I help my students to ask questions about why something is this way or that way. It is not as simple as just memorizing subject matter in order to regurgitate it for the upcoming test. The purpose of teaching is to help others understand something that is known as true. I was on honor roll in high school on a consistent basis. My best subjects were English and Writing. I attended Pennsylvania State University for Communications with a focus on English Writing and the study of Film and Media Arts. I have a thorough understanding of the English language and a strong knack for comprehension. I believe that I would be able to teach my techniques for not just memorizing subject matter but for comprehending and understanding it.

Heather B. - Bowie, MD 20715 (48.1 mi) - Journalism Tutor - $30.00/hr.
I am a certified teacher and have been working with students of the elementary age for four years through my college career. I completed my student teaching with Fairfax County Public Schools and with Department of Defense Education Activity in Heidelberg, Germany. I have worked with students on all levels and feel that getting them interested in what is being taught is the first step in learning. I am a lifelong learner and would like to teacher your student how to become one too.

Patricia L - Newark, DE 19713 (13.1 mi) - Journalism Tutor - $35.50/hr.
I love talking to students. I endeavor to let each student know that I care and am willing to go the extra mile to help he, or she, "get it"! I want to "connect". I have a terrific sense of humor, and try to keep my students smiling. I think we learn more, through laughter. I try to keep everyone relaxed. I try to keep everything real. (I've realized that we learn, more easily, when we can apply what we are learning, to our every day lives.) I encourage questions. I want my students to realize that when they are with me, in the classroom, they are safe, i.e., it is OKAY to make mistakes! It's encouraged! How can we learn, if we don't "open up"? I won't give up -- on any student. I have been writing for 30 years; I have been published over 200 times, in approximately 106 periodicals. In 2008, samples of my earliest writings, as well as recent-front page articles, from the

Sheila C - Newark, DE 19702 (13.7 mi) - Journalism Tutor - $37.00/hr.
I like to incorporate a sense of humor in my teaching - I believe when children can relax they are much more open to learning. I am also sensitive to children's different learning styles whether they are visual, auditory or kinesthetic, and tailor my approach accordingly. No two sessions are ever the same! Each student has unique needs and challenges and my job is to work "through the maze" and carry the message to the brain. I try to use practical and relevant examples whenever I can and appeal to the student's personal frame of reference so the goal of really "learning" versus "memorizing" can be met. I have been a substitute teacher for the past two years covering all grade levels from pre-k three up to senior year in high school. I am a Master's Degree candidate in Elementary Education at Wilmington University. I enjoy students at every level and am amazed at what a difference a year

AnnMarie R - Bear, DE 19701 (18.9 mi) - Journalism Tutor - $46.00/hr.
Over the past twenty years of classroom teaching, I have discovered that many children have different styles of learning. I have taken a few classes on Differential Instruction, and I am aware of different learning needs. Patience is paramount in working with older students who get frustrated when they do not get a concept easily The research writing class at Groves was very demanding; yet, I had twenty some students qualify to receive their CEA3 certificates and graduate from high school. it is my firm belief that all children CAN learn. Having grown up in a family where education was highly valued. not only did I desire to attain my own college degree, but I was strongly devoted to the idea of helping educate others. My B.A. is in English with a concentration in secondary education. Initially, I chose to teach in Catholic elementary schools which included teaching and learning techni

Laura B - Baltimore, MD 21236 (23.4 mi) - Journalism Tutor - $39.50/hr.
I have implemented individualized reading and writing programs for students ranging from pre-K to adult; gave one-on-one attention to special needs students in phonics, context-based reading, and fact retention; cultivated students’ understanding of grammar/punctuation, sentence/paragraph construction, and general cohesiveness in creative and academic writing; worked one-on-one with high school students on SAT critical reading and writing sections, devoting extra attention to vocabulary expansion. I am keenly aware of how busy most students are, so my aim is for tutoring to feel like something they get to do and not something they have to do. Teaching revitalizes my own love for learning, a love I hope to impart in a gentle, patient manner. I believe in honoring the variance in learning styles, and I empower my students to engage with material in ways that feel natural to them.

Jakea O - Logan Township, NJ 08085 (34.1 mi) - Journalism Tutor - $38.50/hr.
I enjoy helping people learn something new. I think anyone can do anything they put their mind to. I would allow the student time to get to know me so they would feel comfortable with me. Students sometimes feel too vulnerable to try things when they don't know someone because they do not want to make mistakes. I would let them know that the only way to get better at something is to make mistakes so they can learn from those mistakes by making the appropriate corrections. Confidence is key. Positive work ethics allow me to help and give students the confidence necessary to complete anything put before them. Graduating with a Bachelor's Degree in Journalism has given me the easygoing background to educate others in writing and reading. I am always the person asked by friends and family when they are not sure how to spell a word or if they need something to be proofread. I enjoy reading an

Sayantan D - Baltimore, MD 21227 (36.4 mi) - Journalism Tutor - $42.00/hr.
I value and respect the idea of teaching and imparting education. I feel that consideration and empathy are very important factors in teaching. I also feel that respecting your students opinion and trying understand from his/ her perspective in order to teach them better is a very important aspect I admire and practise. A worth of teaching is only understood when the student is being able to give full justice to what he is taught. I have had unpleasant experience of bad teaching hence I will strive to make sure that my students are not effected with any bad form of education. I have developed a strong respect and the importance of education from my family. I have a post graduate degree in Finance but I also intend to have an interdisciplinary approach in my career and education, which is why I am studying Engineering Management and Information systems. I have had experience of addressing

Jacquelyn C - Gibbstown, NJ 08027 (38.6 mi) - Journalism Tutor - $38.00/hr.
Tutoring is as personally a rewarding experience as learning. My philosophy is to help students understand that learning and becoming better writers, readers, and thinkers—better people, in fact—is something worth striving for. I have the patience, dedication, and knowledge necessary to help students articulate and meet their own goals, and I encourage them to ask questions and share ideas and opinions. The fresh environment I help foster is one of creativity, humor, and mutual respect. I welcome all students from diverse backgrounds, different majors and ages, who need help drafting, editing, researching and revising. One’s education is priceless, and I believe that all of my students can reach their potential and discover their own voice. As a graduate from Rowan University’s MA in Writing, I tutored in one-on-one sessions students in history, business, political science, English, crea
