gail h. - Dearborn Heights, MI 48127 (4.2 mi) - Composition Tutor - $70.00/hr.
I have taught at risk, special ed and gifted students for close to 2 decades. I was recognized as a distinguished teacher throughout my teaching career. Throughout my career I have been highly successful in all areas in the field of education. I believe that all students can learn and believe that students must take a serious part in their learning. As students self-assess, become involved in their learning, they will become motivated learners. Practice a variety of things to motivate students and engage them in the depth of learning.

Pamela P. - Detroit, MI 48228 (4.8 mi) - Composition Tutor - $37.50/hr.
Critical thinking skills and untraditional ways are what I focus on. However the way someone learns, I will try to set the individual up to show how they learn and work with them. I will implement practices and materials I think will fit the student's profile. I feel a teacher wears many hats and you must be prepared to wear a different one any day. I have been a tutor for 23 years and I have taught Adult Basic Education for 12 years. I am still continuing my education to receive a Masters degree and plan to get my PhD. I work for a community college and have done advising, enrollment, testing, phone directory, and student sevices. I have attended many professional development workshops on education.

Kristen B. - Detroit, MI 48235 (5 mi) - Composition Tutor - $30.00/hr.
I've taught reading, writing and composition at the collegiate level. I'm currently a PhD candidate in Educational Studies at Eastern Michigan University. As a graduate assistant with the GEAR UP program at Eastern, I tutored eighth grade students in various subject areas, with English and writing being my specialty. I believe in using my experience and expertise as a writer to help students maximize their potential. As a writing and composition instructor at Eastern Michigan University, I worked with a diverse population of students, who were from all different educational backgrounds, and my priority was to ensure that each student excelled and improved their writing. Given my educational and teaching background, tutoring is second nature to me. If you're interested in inquiring about or receiving my services please contact me via email at kbarnes@emich.edu.

John A. - Dearborn, MI 48124 (6.4 mi) - Composition Tutor - $42.50/hr.
I know how important English communication skills are to success in ALL subjects, and my approach helps students to realize the connection between English and all academic areas. I have taught in Dearborn Public Schools for 34 + years, 32 of which were in grades 9-12. I truly enjoy the process of teaching and watching students improve. Lack of confidence is often the cause of low achievement. I concentrate not only on self-image and confidence, but on ACTUALLY IMPROVING SKILLS so the student's confidence will come from within, not from mere positive re-inforcement, but from actually experiencing their own growth. I love to teach writing skills, reading improvement/comprehension, grammar, and all aspects of English language arts. Teaching for me is more than a job; it's a calling.

John B. - Southfield, MI 48076 (6.5 mi) - Composition Tutor - $39.00/hr.
Since being awarded a master's degree in 2008, I've taught English composition, literature, and reading comprehension courses at Wayne State University, Henry Ford Community College, Oakland Community College, and Jackson Community College. I am currently a professor of English at Wayne County Community College. The collaborative learning approach, where students are encouraged to discuss what and how they're learning, is most effective. Students tend to engage much better with course material when the instructor has discussions with them, as opposed to lecturing at them.

I believe in on-hand materials, using all the modalities of hearing, seeing, & tactile. I have taught for over (23) years from Kindergarten to college Anatomy. I have raised MEAP scores significantly with Math, Reading, & Writing. I also played @ EMU with college football, from 1972-1975. See current resume for experience.

I also have experience with 5th grade all subjects. But I have my own tutoring Company and I have worked with kids to adults.

Amy B. - Farmington Hills, MI 48331 (8.5 mi) - Composition Tutor - $42.50/hr.
I have experience working with students through college level. My teaching style is very interactive. I like to begin a tutoring session by helping the student set a goal for the session. We then begin work on the material. During the session I encourage the student's learning by asking open-ended questions to encourage critical thinking. With writing assignments, the pen is always in the student's hand and, with guidance, the student makes choices about his or her writing. I use a method I call guided discovery, which encourages students to think in depth about their subject, discovering new methods and information with guidance from me. In addition to having a Master of Arts in English Literature, I have extensive experience teaching English at the college level. I have spent the last three years as the Writing Corner Director at a Kansas community college, administering all of the wri

Jonathan M. - Novi, MI 48375 (8.9 mi) - Composition Tutor - $25.00/hr.
Employed at Oakland Community College 2010-2011. I have been a tutor at OCC since 2010, but have had a lot of private experience prior. My methods are very effective, yet unconventional. This serves both you and me very well because I like what I do and you get the knowledge you're seeking. I can always understand a student's individual needs because I have been around such a large variety of learning styles. Also, I believe that a "set" lesson plan is worthless for English because who's to say that everyone with a specific problem is not understanding it for the same reason? One person may not understand the use of paragraph formation for a completely different reason than the next. Casual, but very effective.
