Kristen C - Brunswick, ME 04011 (7.3 mi) - Writing Skills Tutor - $34.50/hr.
To whom it may concern,
I have taught as a classroom teacher, a Title I teacher, and as a special education teacher. All of these experiences have given me skills I use as a teacher. I have a love of books and enjoy sharing them with children.
I have always enjoyed working with children. I enjoy watching their faces when the lesson I am teaching suddenly makes sense to them! I am a strong believer in communicating with parents and working with them to best meet the needs of their children.
I took a graduate course called Maine Literacy Partner: Good First Teaching. This course really helped me focus on my guided reading lesson plans.
Sincerely,
Kristen Clukey I think it is important to understand that everyone can learn, however it is just a matter of how long it takes. Kids learn at different paces. They may need to be shown a different way to learn. For exampl

Allison T - Portland, ME 04101 (21.2 mi) - Writing Skills Tutor - $38.50/hr.
Improving the lives of children has always been a passion of mine. While my academic background has had a focus, primarily, in the social work realm, my overall philosophy for working with youth emphasizes patience and education. I have sought opportunities working with both young children and adolescents. My interest began when I tutored elementary age children during my high school career. Since then, my experiences range from being a school social worker, to teaching anger management group therapy to adolescents, to encouraging education among the youth in my community. My academic interests lie across all subjects, but I have always had a particular fondness for mathematics. I believe that education is the most efficient way to combat any issue. I, therefore, feel that it is essential for youth to find success throughout their academic journey. I approach work with youth from

Colleen R - Scarborough, ME 04074 (27.7 mi) - Writing Skills Tutor - $38.00/hr.
Teaching is a facilitating process. I believe it is my job to aide the student in developing a more solid understanding of the coursework in front of them. This may involve explaining the same concept to the child in a variety of ways to help them understand. The child may also just require a patient instructor who is willing to keep practicing until they have reached the mastery stage of learning.
Whatever the case may be, a high level of patience, understanding and gentle persistence is necessary in order for the child to feel as though they are making progress and not get discouraged. I have two years of experience teaching adults in college-level and public adult education settings. Additionally, I have about 3 years of experience working with children from infancy to adolescence and was a lead after-school teacher.

Working smart and using the best study skills makes learning easier and more fun. I worked with the US Department of Education for over 30 years investigating civil rights complaints from kindergarten to graduate school. I know how education works and how to help students succeed in school. With a BA degree in Government and Geography, a Masters in Public Administration and 30 years experience in education I know how to help students reach their goals. I have taught primary school, high school, English as a second language, English, adults, geography, history, social sciences, study skills, SAT, TOEFL and advised students about college majors and university choices. I love helping others learn and reach their personal goals. My greatest satisfaction is the success of my students. I am an easygoing person and sensitive to my students’ needs, concerns and interests. While practice makes pe

David G - Mechanic Falls, ME 04256 (32.9 mi) - Writing Skills Tutor - $35.00/hr.
As a journalist and teacher, I've always enjoyed getting the most out of the English language and passing that knowledge on to students of all ages. I base my teaching on the axiom that "writing is thinking," that the writing challenge brings out the best in us, and that we owe it to ourselves to take pride in our work, which means rigorous revision, self-editing and proofreading. My students learn the value of equating clarity with brevity, writing to include and not exclude, and following a writing process that emphasizes careful pre-writing, or brainstorming. When I teach writing, I emphasize -- and ensure that the students practice -- rewriting. Not even professional writers get it right the first time. I also encourage students to enrich their writing by reading as often as possible. Young people who take writing seriously are preparing for a successful college career. Post-secondar
