Deandra T - Industry, ME 04938 (27.8 mi) - Creative Writing Tutor - $39.50/hr.
I really have a passion for teaching children from all walks of life. I believe all children can learn, but that each child has their own individual style. I want to help your child be successful in subjects they never thought possible. I am patient, easy going and flexible. I appreciate the ideas of my students, and incorporate their interests into my learning philosophy to keep things relevant for them. I believe that all children are capable of reaching a level of success when given the proper support and guidance. Teachers can make or break a child's perception of education, and their overall educational experience. I aim to be the teacher that a child remembers for positive learning strategies and life lessons that were taught. As a graduate of a renowned Teaching College, I have been motivated to set high standards for my educational and teaching practices. I currently have

Elizabeth O - New Sharon, ME 04955 (33.4 mi) - Creative Writing Tutor - $35.00/hr.
I believe I'm quite a good teacher because I'm firmly committed to excellence in academic work, but I don't believe in being pedantic or dreary about it. My own interests are quite broad, and I think I'm quite good at finding ways to make academic subjects relevant and appealing to each student's particular experience and worldview.
I'm proud to say that I always receive very positive student evaluations at the end of each semester. Students say that they find me knowledgeable, approachable and open to new ideas, and I try very hard to bring this attitude to every student that I teach. I've taught Aesthetics, Critical Theory, Painting and Drawing at various schools on the East Coast. These include New York University, Penn State University, Maine College of Art and The University of Southern Maine. I currently teach at The University of Maine at Farmington.
I'm also a grant writer

Danielle H - Colebrook, NH 03576 (38.5 mi) - Creative Writing Tutor - $33.50/hr.
I really enjoy working with people. Everyone has a different learning style and I believe in catering my approach to the person. I have a talent at taking complicated material and condensing it in a way that makes sense. If you can make something click in someone's head and make it interesting then you will succeed in educating them. I graduated from Plymouth State University in 2008 with my B.S. in Health Education. My option was Wellness Management which has a business component but in obtaining the degree I was required to do some teaching as well. (Not formally, more presentations to my peers and community education. I do not have a teacher certification.) I am a Certified Health Education Specialist which is a certification on top of my degree. I did some mentoring while I lived in Dover, NH and greatly enjoyed my time spent working with youth. Currently I work at a Federally Qualif

Robert K - Rome, ME 04963 (40.6 mi) - Creative Writing Tutor - $55.50/hr.
After earning my BA and PhD in English, I spent many years in industry as an engineer, quality manager, project manager, and technical writer. I have taught a wide range of subjects in college classrooms, from astronomy to information literacy and composition to professional writing. I am currently on the faculty at two colleges here in Maine and I serve as an editor for several academic and industry publications. I love to work with students one-on-one from topic selection to final editing. Making the right decisions early in the writing process is critical to the paper’s success, and I have many classroom-tested tools and techniques to help students make the right decisions. My goal is leave each student with the skills they need to succeed in writing –not just a particular paper but any writing assignment they may face.

David G - Mechanic Falls, ME 04256 (41.3 mi) - Creative Writing 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
