Kyle S. - St. Louis, MO 63139 (0.6 mi) - Political Science Tutor - $40.00/hr.
I believe that each student has a unique learning style of that must be discovered in real-time. Therefore I tailor the lessons towards an open, organic, collaborative process. I focus on small incremental steps designed to build momentum and flow states, which is the best way to start anything. The goal of any lesson is to bring the student to a place where they can learn on their own. The purpose of learning is fun! I worked in the financial sector for 10 years and have a Master's Degree in Economics and Finance. Since then I have focused my efforts into freelance teaching, and have worked with students in a variety of subjects: chess, math, finance, language arts, history, piano, and writing, among others. Other subjects I’ve studied informally: literature, language, history, politics & government.

Florence M. - Saint Louis, MO 63114 (5.5 mi) - Political Science Tutor - $32.50/hr.
Students learn best when they feel safe to explore and learn from past mistakes. In fact, 'mistakes' should be viewed as opportunities to improve skills and learning strategies. I use 'play therapy' most often to teach skills and strategies. Multiple studies have demonstrated that children learn best through play. I have 30+ years of experience helping students with a variety of disabilities which include language disorders. My experience encompasses Early Childhood Special Education, Elementary, Middle, High School, and post-secondary. I have helped students with ADD/ADHD, Autism/Aspergers/PDD-NOS, learning disabilities, multiple disabilities, medically fragile, language impaired and ESL (English as a Second Language).

Carlos Z. - Saint Louis, MO 63126 (5.8 mi) - Political Science Tutor - $30.00/hr.
I have a liberal arts degree in international studies and experience in the area. I approach teaching and tutoring the way I approach sociology and human rights—with great enthusiasm and interest. Since my early college years, I felt the intense desire to make an impact in our world by influencing future generations. I wanted to wake up young minds to the multiple injustices taking place in their communities as well as around the world and instill in them the desire to change the world. The middle school, high school and college setting gives me the opportunity to engage the student in a stage of their lives where they are willing to try anything that may broaden their horizons. Furthermore, I honor the great pedagogical thinker, Paulo Freire, who believed that educating is just a reciprocal process: teachers as well as students learning from each other.

jim c. - Wright City, MO 63390 (37 mi) - Political Science Tutor - $32.50/hr.
I am very patient and work closely with the student to build encouragement. I model what I want the student to do, then I work side by side with the student, and then I allow the student to do by themselves. Masters Degree in TESOL (teaching English to students of other languages). Am just now beginning my teaching experience, but love students and helping others in achieving their goals and their dreams. Having studied mandarin Chinese I recognize the challenges in learning a different language. This is why I will make your learning experience fulfilling.

Anne D - St. Louis, MO 63139 (0.4 mi) - Political Science Tutor - $33.50/hr.
I completed my semester of student teaching at Center High School in Kansas City in December 2002. Upon graduation I joined AmeriCorps. During my second year of service I developed and taught a variety of subjects related to public safety and service in St. Louis City elementary and middle schools after school programs. I have also worked as a camp counselor in Maine and volunteer coach girls softball in my community. In addition to coaching and teaching school age students I also instructed Community Education classes for adults in First Aid/CPR and Disaster Response Preparedness. While attaining my degree I learned many different techniques and styles of teaching, mainly based on the multiple intelligences. I believe everyone learns in different style and it is my job as a teacher to make sure all of the learning styles are being met during a lesson. I believe in coming up with new a

Matthew K - Saint Louis, MO 63130 (2.2 mi) - Political Science Tutor - $37.00/hr.
Not everyone learns in the same way. I try to discern how the student I am tutoring learns best, whether it's by just doing examples, or visually by physically relating the material to something easier to understand. After I have found out how best to teach my student, I am able to move forward and help them to the best of my ability. In my tutoring experience, I have always been respectful and curteous to my students. I believe that students are much more likely to confident in their learning if they feel as if they are respected their teacher/tutor. I also make sure to be supportive even when the student is struggling and then compliment them when they make great strides. As a senior civil engineering student at Washington University, I have received an outstanding education, especially in math and science. I will graduate in May with a B.S. in Civil Engineering.

Donna C - Saint Louis, MO 63109 (2.4 mi) - Political Science Tutor - $39.00/hr.
I sincerely have a passion for helping others. I enjoy learning and growing together. Also, I believe that one has the potential to learn from anyone, young or old; it is merely an open mind that is vital. Also, I feel that sharing ideas and concepts in an open forum is conducive to healthy learning. In addition, if one can reach out and change just one life positively a great challenge has been met. While I was attending college I served as a Certified Trainer at Outback Steakhouse for several years. I taught our classroom for trainees, and I also developed and trained key employees. In addition, I volunteered at the International Institute and have helped newly arrived immigrants American customs and basic English syntax and grammar. Soon thereafter I earned two BA degrees, one in French and the other in Political Science. Currently, I aid in the rehabilitation of socially disa

Chun X - Brentwood, MO 63144 (2.4 mi) - Political Science Tutor - $37.00/hr.
During my junior and senior year in college, I TA’ed a finance class called options pricing for two semesters. Options pricing was a difficult subject. I worked very hard to receive an A- for the course, which turned out to be my favor. I had insight to the intellectual hurdles other students had to overcome to master the material. So, teaching them came very naturally. In addition, I abandoned the lecture format for a very interactive teaching format. This allowed the students to ask many questions and allowed me to gage the level of comprehension from in the students real-time. Tutored inner-city and disadvantaged students in elementary English and math for 1 year.
TA’ed undergraduate finance class, options pricing, for 1 year.

Bertha W - St. Louis, MO 63133 (3.5 mi) - Political Science Tutor - $38.50/hr.
Patient but result driven. I try to adapt by teaching style to the needs and personality of the student. Some children are more responsive to games and visuals while others are able to read and digest the information with just a little assistance. I spend the first session getting to know the child and discussing their likes and dislikes about school. I also review the area(s) that they are experiencing difficult and solicit a response from them about why they feel they are having problems in those areas. I take the feedback from the session and devise a teaching strategy that best suits the child's learning style and personality. I have over 10 years of Elementary Education Experience, working as a long-term Substitute Teacher,a Parent Educator, Community Recruiter, Grant Writer, and Tutor. I love helping children explore and develop their potential through learning. My speciality

Patrick C - St. Louis, MO 63104 (3.5 mi) - Political Science Tutor - $42.50/hr.
I believe that the most important element determining the degree to which a student will achieve is the level of expectations that are set for them. High, clear expectations with consistent feedback on progress is absolutely critical to making the most significant academic gains possible. Students should know exactly what they are expected to do, and should be able to track their own progress towards demanding goals along the way. When students are asked to excel, they rise higher than they thought they could. During my senior year at Kalamazoo College I tutored in the Law School Admissions Test (LSAT), as well as designing the curriculum for and delivering a free class in the same topic. I graduated as the top Philosophy student in my class after serving as an Honors Teaching Assistant in Philosophy of Law, and then continued on to undergo summer training with Teach For America. I
