Terrence C. - Norfolk, VA 23518 (14.7 mi) - GRE Tutor - $37.50/hr.
My teaching style relies heavily on feedback from the client. I try to have a phone call with a student to learn what they are having difficulty with but also what their professor might expect from them. Then I get a good sense of their personality to understand the best way to get ideas across to them. There are often roadblocks to learning such as personal hangups or self doubt that must be addressed. Other times it is just a matter of understanding what the person does or does not get. You will see many ads by former or current professors trying to make a buck on the side. They are terrible tutors - they spent their whole careers having students beg them for a better grade. I have spent my whole life learning how to explain the most complex concepts to absolutely anybody. You will also see many people touting a related professional position as qualification. Many of them got t

Cara W - Newport News, VA 23606 (6.9 mi) - GRE Tutor - $42.50/hr.
A year ago, I had the honor of substituting as an Assistant Teacher with an amazing kindergarten teacher. I learned then that she maintains her respect and passion for her career by following this mantra: "I need to understand my students come to me in the morning having already experienced some kind of morning of their own at home. I don’t know what that morning was like, but I can tell when it’s been a bad one. I have to be able to engage each of them, no matter what their morning was, and welcome them to the safety of my classroom. I want each of them to feel safe here, so that they can be excited about learning.” To this day, I follow and believe that mantra and pledge to make it work in all of my educational efforts. In 2007, I graduated from Penn State with a plan of attending graduate school for Creative Writing. I was devastated when I received three rejection letters from school

Kathleen W - Virginia Beach, VA 23452 (22.7 mi) - GRE Tutor - $37.50/hr.
Instead of "teacher" or "tutor", my students have come to know me as their "thinking coach." I pride myself in being able to adapt my "coaching" style for each individual. I am a firm believer in not simply providing and answer, but helping students find the answers for themselves. I stress the importance of proper written and verbal communication and while improvement takes time and effort, both the students and I live for the moments when the light simply "comes on." Through humor, patience, and encouragement, we learn from each other and make one another stronger students, teachers, and communicators. As a graduate of a top-level liberal arts college, I found that great teachers are the best influence for great teaching. I have been teaching for 6 years with experience at the middle school, high school, and college level. I have tutored students in writing, math, science, music, and t

Walter J - Chesapeake, VA 23320 (23.4 mi) - GRE Tutor - $40.00/hr.
I am a very motivating person and tend to use humor as a method of teaching. I teach to and with the child and never down to him/her. I break large components into their simplest forms so that a child learns to take things one step at a time and not feel overwhelmed. I make the learning relevant to what the child is interested in or knows about so that he/she can be more engaged in the learning process. We set the goal-a reasonable one yet with high expectations and together we achieve it. For the past ten years, I have been teaching High School English.
I have taught grades 9-12 in Literature, Composition and Standards of Learning in preparation for the state exams. I have taught inclusion classes involving students with numerous learning styles and have always met and exceeded the expectations of their parents.

Nina A - Virginia Beach, VA 23464 (24.1 mi) - GRE Tutor - $36.50/hr.
I began working in the field of education nearly 4 years ago. I began to substitute and found that I enjoyed working with high school aged students. I was always great in math so that became my subject of choice. I worked hard to develop lessons that would be both challenging and interesting for the students. After my first year as a long-term Algebra I substitute teacher I knew that I had found my life’s calling. I had a passion for teaching and my career as an educator was truly beginning to evolve. I changed my major in graduate school to Math Education. I spent my summers working with youth at various academic summer programs and performing private tutoring to over a dozen children over the course of 4 years. My style of teaching is centered around three basic concepts. Building relationships with students, making the information something they can relate to, and finally providing th
