Sterling S. - Charlotte, NC 28270 (6.5 mi) - PSAT Tutor - $37.50/hr.
I have always been an honors student and am currently taking the highest levels of math (AP Calculus) and spanish (Spanish 5) at my high school. I am involved in Peer Mentors at my school and have tutored multiple students in a variety of subjects. I have also tutored students outside of school, mostly in math. I love teaching others and helping them to understand concepts that they previously were struggling with. I am very patient and will work my hardest to make sure those I tutor succeed in school. I generally teach through visual aids and through very thorough explanations. If the student doesn't understand the first time I explain something, I will explain it in a different way and will keep explaining it in different ways until he/she fully understands what's being taught. I try my hardest to teach by explaining concepts logically and showing WHY and HOW, rather than simply saying

Dara Nicole H - Pineville, NC 28134 (0.4 mi) - PSAT Tutor - $38.50/hr.
As a graduate with a BA in English Education, I received the most up-to-date and professional instruction in education. I specialize in secondary education but have tutored elementary students in reading as well as testing skills. As a high school English teacher I work with young adults every day in the classroom as well as after school in the tutoring program. While completing my degree, I also tutored students in basic psychology, history, and in writing labs. I have taken part in SCETA sponsored SAT preparation professional development courses to better prepare me in SAT tutoring. With regards to my teaching style, I am a pragmatist. I believe that every student has the ability to learn if given the proper instruction, attention, and feedback. As a classroom teacher in public school, I try to create the kind of learning environment that will not only nurture creative and free thinkin

Joon C - Charlotte, NC 28210 (2.6 mi) - PSAT Tutor - $36.50/hr.
I am a current teacher for the Princeton Review for the SAT (soon also for the GRE and GMAT), as well as a former tutor for Huntington Learning Center (SAT). A score of 1400 on the SAT allows me the credibility to teach, while a self-awareness allows me to understand the mechanisms and strategies that have allowed me this success.
As a recipient of two bachelor degrees, in Biochemistry and Psychology, I am uniquely positioned to help students on a variety of subjects. My curriculum included Biology, Biochemistry, Chemistry, Organic Chemistry, Physics, Math, and a litany of Psychology courses, including the Psychology of Learning. I am a huge proponent of the dialectic and Socratic methods of teaching, while recognizing the need for the didactic to learn the basic methods of academics.
My own experience, as well as my background in Psychology, helps me recognize that learning mu

Penka M - Charlotte, NC 28226 (4.6 mi) - PSAT Tutor - $37.00/hr.
My favorite subject in the school was Mathematics. This why I studied Mathematics in Sofia University (Bulgaria). After graduation I started to work as a math teacher in High school, then in Middle school for a total of 23 years (Bulgaria). All these years I have worked enjoying my job. For many years I conducted lessons with small groups of students who studied facultative Mathematics. When we came in USA I started to study English and read and understand Mathematics in English. This year I started to tutor in Geometry and Basic Mathematics to Algebra II. I love to teach children. They learn in different way. Some of them can not concentrate in a class room, while some learn very fast. I am willing to help both groups. My goal is to provide the best education. I believe in teaching through discovery and in providing constructive approach to learning. The children can meet their potentia

Courtney S - Charlotte, NC 28273 (4.7 mi) - PSAT Tutor - $38.00/hr.
I graduated with honors from the College of Charleston (and the Honors College) with a degree in Business Administration/Finance and a minor in Pre-Actuarial studies. As part of my minor I completed Calculus I, II, III, and IV, Linear Algebra, and graduate courses in Probability and Statistics. I have had the opportunity to continually enhance my analytical abilities and will begin working on my Masters Degree in Mathematical Finance at UNCC this fall. Throughout college and high school I have had the opportunity to offer tutoring services to friends and class mates, which has allowed me to develop and improve my teaching skills. When helping students learn and understand material I believe it is important to first gain the student's trust, so they will not resist receiving help. I am a recent college graduate and find that it is easier to relate to, communicate with, and gain the trust

It is important to me to adapt various teaching styles and methods in order to meet the needs of my students. With this positive and goal-oriented approach I am able to create successful and joyful learners. My passion is teaching.

John B - Charlotte, NC 28226 (5.3 mi) - PSAT Tutor - $40.50/hr.
Since high school I've been working with my peers to help clarify subject matter, as that was my favorite method of study. In college I tutored under-classmen in Spanish, chemistry, and political science. Since graduating, I've worked with college freshmen as a writing tutor and with middle school students to teach algebra and pre-algebra. I'm a very strong writer, and I've got a broad background allowing me to tutor in any subject through freshmen year to college. My method of teaching varies with the subject. A spanish tutor and a chemistry tutor can go about things quite differently. I like leading students to find answers on their own so that they understand the paths they are taking. That method is especially helpful in hard sciences and math. In the liberal arts (poli-sci, literature, religion, philosophy, etc.) I like to work in the Socratic method. I'll challenge the students on

Darren B - Charlotte, NC 28270 (6.2 mi) - PSAT Tutor - $31.50/hr.
I have earned a PhD in Chemical Engineering and completed 20 hours toward a MA in Teaching. In response to a desperate need for math teachers in urban schools, I completed an alternative certification program offered through Chicago Public Schools and National Louis University while teaching high school math. Through my education I have gained an extensive knowledge of Math, Chemistry and Physics and advanced Engineering concepts. I have also been trained in SAT and ACT test preparation, so I am very familiar with grammar, reading comprehension and strong essay writing techniques. Over the last 15 years, I have tutored students ranging from Jr. High through college in all these areas. Society continues to foster the traditional belief that success in math and science is inherent, only to be grasped by those born with a particular talent level.

Megan T - Charlotte, NC 28211 (6.5 mi) - PSAT Tutor - $38.00/hr.
Through my experience working with students, especially as a substitute teacher, I have learned that each student has unique and individual learning needs. Some students are able to retain and comprehend information when presented orally; others are visual learners, while some students work better by learning through example. My goal is to discover what learning style best meets the needs of each student and then utilize the appropriate techniques to reach the highest possible success rate. I am a patient teacher who understands the importance of consistency while remaining flexible. I also understand how frustrating learning can be to struggling students and try to make learning fun and applicable to everyday life. Students need to know that others believe in their success in order for them to achieve success. Graduating from a liberal arts college, I had the benefit of studying various
