David V. - Austin, TX 78704 (31.1 mi) - Political Science Tutor - $20.00/hr.
From January 2006 through August 2008, I worked part-time as a freshman composition instructor, writing lab tutor, and teaching assistant for the English department at UNT. As an instructor, I taught two classes per long semester and one, intensive summer session. During the fall semesters, I taught Composition I, which introduced students to a variety of writing concepts, such as the personal essay and the visual text. The students wrote five papers, three to five pages in length, with each paper designed around one of the concepts. For those exercises, I emphasized the importance organization, grammar, and syntax rather than content. During the spring semesters, I taught Composition II, which required the students to develop critical reading and thinking skills as a progression toward a final research paper. The students prepared two papers covering assigned works of anthologized

Robb C. - Austin, TX 78704 (31.1 mi) - Political Science Tutor - $35.00/hr.
I worked in after school progrmas all through college and generally enjoy helping children study. I am very engaging, patient and relate well to any age child or young adult. I am not a proto-typical, traditional "tutor" in that I never studied education in a pedagogical sense, but I am highly educated and always made high grades in every level of school. I may can help where the traditonal teachers/tutors have been unsuccessful.
I have no specialized training related to ADD/ADHD other than I have been diagnosed as such since high school. I learned to thrive in light of it and feel like I have insight into those with the same diagnosis.

Wendy G. - Austin, TX 78703 (34 mi) - Political Science Tutor - $30.00/hr.
I am a recent graduate from Indiana University who has a passion for art, history, and film. I spent most of my college career teaching at IU Outdoor Adventures, Indiana University's outdoor recreation program. There, I gained the skills to instruct on rock climbing and backpacking. I believe that the teaching style I learned there pertains to teaching any subject. A teacher should guide the student to the answer, rather than giving it to them in an easy answer. I also worked as a Naturecrafts staff member at Camp Barney Medintz in Cleveland, GA. At CBM, I taught kids ages 8 to 16 outdoor skills and guided backpacking trips. Working there taught me how to best educate all ages in a fun and interactive manner. Whether it be playing a game or taking a walk, learning can be enjoyable. I believe in guiding a student towards an answer through experience, rather than telling them the answer. T

Katharine D. - San Antonio, TX 78209 (36.6 mi) - Political Science Tutor - $54.00/hr.
I am an extremely relaxed, nurturing, personable and humorous instructor, experienced at teaching on both the junior high, high school and college levels. I have been gratified by the highly positive teacher evaluations I've received, which I am happy to share with potential clients. I usually become not just a teacher or tutor but a mentor and friend to students truly wanting to learn and grow. As an empty nester,I have boundless energy, love and creativity to share with young people, and hope you will become one of them. Despite being over 50, my students invariably tell me I'm "cool." I plead guilty as charged! As a veteran, award-winning magazine writer, published in dozens of national and regional periodicals, I am comfortable writing in any mode, medium and style, and excel at transmitting the secrets of this craft to students of all ages and ability levels.

Andrew M. - Austin, TX 78731 (37.4 mi) - Political Science Tutor - $30.00/hr.
I can be formal, especially with younger students, but am accustomed to tutoring my peers in a relatively informal setting. I graduated with honors with degrees in history and economics from the University of Texas at Austin. I am an obsessive student of history, specializing in the history of the British Empire in the 19th century, with a 70 page thesis on the subject that I am in the process of getting published. As of June 2013 I will have just returned from a full year in Egypt studying Arabic after four years of studying Arabic in Austin, including a summer in Morocco, as part of a Defense Department program for critical language study. I will have achieved advanced proficiency by U.S. government standards, and will be able to teach both Modern Standard Arabic and Egyptian Colloquial Arabic. During July of 2013 I will most likely be teaching Arabic part time at the University of Tex

Presenter of Scholarly Papers I tend to be really flexible and try to adapt my teaching style to the learning style of the student. For students who tend to be more tactile, I might have them handle apples if a math problem references apples. If a student is working on a writing assignment, I will offer suggestions (such as marking spelling/grammar/punction mistakes) and help them learn how to correct the errors so they won't continue to make the same errors in the future.

Richard W - Austin, TX 78748 (27.2 mi) - Political Science Tutor - $37.00/hr.
I typically employ the Socratic method: asking questions to discover what the student knows (or thinks he knows) and guiding his thinking toward discovering the knowledge himself.
Both my three children and my Scouts have declared that they enjoy my teaching because it engages their interest and because it is frequently humorous (when the subject and the occasions permits).
I really enjoy the company and conversation of young adults and find I often learn from them as they are learning from me. I also believe that the brain is like a muscle: the more it is exercised the stronger it gets. My wife and I home-schooled our three children from 1993 until 2004. In addition, I was active in Scouts from 1994 until 2007 as Assistant Scoutmaster, Scoutmaster and Merit Badge Counselor. These positions are supervisory in nature and involve both formal and informal teaching, mentoring and guidi

I have taught language arts and reading in public and private charter schools for over 15 years. I also taught TOEFL in Mexico and Japan. While in Japan, I worked as a TOEFL instructor and also taught conversation classes, and GRE vocabulary and critical reasoning classes. I am currently creating state tests for Pearson in the area of reading and language arts. I have several years' experience working with special education students and hold a special ed certificate in addition to a life time language arts grade 7-12 certificate. I am eager to return to what I do best: teaching. I enjoy working with students of all ages and am comfortable with elementary through post-graduate learners. I am particularly adept at teaching writing because I have focused my approach to grammar and reading skills around writing. I possess infinite patience and am sensitive to special learners.

Rita P - Austin, TX 78749 (30.2 mi) - Political Science Tutor - $40.50/hr.
I have received rigorous instruction as to punctuation, grammar, syntax, and composition rules since my years of mandatory education. The knowledge and application of the same have expanded thanks to the years spent in college and at the university, where I have also had to use the notions in order to effectively communicate verbally and in writing.
In the professional arena, I have been a Linguist, an Interpreter, a Translator, a Language Instructor, a Mediator, a Program Manager, and a Technical Writer. I have utilized the notions learned in school, as well as the opportunity to refine them in these professionally held roles, where clarity of text, verbal message, and direction of discourse are vital for successful outcomes.
I can speak many foreign languages including Spanish, Italian, French, Portugese and Latin. My techniques will be customized to the subject and student popu

John D - Bastrop, TX 78602 (31.5 mi) - Political Science Tutor - $42.00/hr.
My teaching style is one in which I strive to engage students in the subject by both instructing and challenging them to think on their own. I also strive to accomplish this goal in such a manner that the student experiences the fun that is a part of learning, but one that also emphasizes the importance of the learning process as well. In all of my tutoring and teaching experiences, I communicate how critical good study habits are: self-discipline; finding a quiet place to study; punctuality; attention to detail; following the rules; etc. As a person who holds both a BA and MA in English, each with concentrations in writing (creative and technical, respectively), I am qualified to, and have for several years, tutored English language studies skills, including composition, grammar, punctuation, and reading comprehesion, to students from the third grade through college.
