Angie B. - Topeka, KS 66614 (14.5 mi) - Writing Tutor - $25.00/hr.
I have been tutoring all subjects K-8 for over 15 years. I am a certified teacher and currently teach 6th grade. I worked at Sylvan Learning Center for over a year before becoming a private tutor. I have been very pleased with the results I have seen with private tutoring. References are available on request. I think lots of modeling and review of the concepts being taught is essential. I want the student to observe the modeling and then for me to guide them through the learning of the concepts. Students should be fully engaged in order to gain a full understanding.

Zach M. - Lawrence, KS 66044 (30 mi) - Writing Tutor - $30.00/hr.
I am a kenisthetic learner but when "hands on" is really not an option I (especially with mathematics) draw so that I have a visual, physical representation of the task at hand. I have never had formal experience tutoring. However Throughout my years of schooling I would participate in study groups which I see as everyone tutoring eachother. I also have two siblings, one very close in age and the other is approximately four years younger. Needless to say, I frequently helped my younger sister with her homework. Just to clarify when I say 'help' I do not mean I just gave her the answers, I would make sure that I either explained or demonstrated the correct way to approach a problem in order to make sure that she understood how to apply the knowlege come test time.

Micaela R. - Manhattan, KS 66502 (44.9 mi) - Writing Tutor - $35.00/hr.
I was a peer tutor at Mount Marty College for three years in Yankton, South Dakota. While there, I tutored college students English, writing, religious studies, critical thinking in ethics, and speech. I love helping students improve their writing skills. I have personally taken the ACT-32, the GRE-80 percentile, and the LSAT-currently awaiting score. I like to find out what the student's biggest concerns are, clarify any confusion, and then run through practice problems by demonstrating and guiding.

Lindsey H - Topeka, KS 66614 (14.2 mi) - Writing Tutor - $39.00/hr.
I graduated from Southwestern College in Winfield, Kansas with a degree in Communications (emphasis in Journalism) along with minors in Religion and Youth Ministry. While in college, I was a member of the yearbook staff as well as serving as an editor in various capacities for the newspaper. I also was selected by my newspaper advisor to serve as a writing mentor for a United Methodist publication. Throughout my academic career at Southwestern, I regularly was approached by my peers to edit their essays and offer any guidance or suggestions to improve their assignment. I have always enjoyed interacting with children of all ages. I currently serve as a paraprofessional (teacher's aide) at an inner - city elementary school. During my three years in this position, it has become extremely apparent that all children....no matter their abilities....are capable of reaching their full poten

Robin L - Topeka, KS 66614 (14.2 mi) - Writing Tutor - $41.50/hr.
Each student deserves to know that they can achieve. I believe that the level of success a student reaches is, ultimately, up to the student. I feel that with caring & patient guidance a student will be motivated to do their best. I believe in hands on experiences in all areas of learning. I am a creative teacher and strive towards a Whole Language approach. As much as possible, I make a lesson relevant to each student's personal life - giving additional motivation for them to work at their own success. I have worked with children of varying ages since 1982. I am most passionate about Language Arts, History and Science.
During my senior year in college, I tutored individual students in Science and I worked one-on-one with 4th graders helping them with Math skills. My classroom experiences include 3rd and 6th Grades. My 3rd Grade room in California had 32 students - 60% of wh

My experience includes teaching adults in the corporate environment, delivering entrepreneurial training, and college and university level teaching in topics such as Quality, Business management, Oral and Written communications.
I have a passion for working with students in helping to them to achieve knowledge in various subject areas.

I am a very passionate teacher with the desired goal of helping students to achieve results that exceed expectations. I have a tendency to work well one on one with students so that they have an opportunity to understand the basics in order to develop a strong foundation for advanced understanding.

Jodie W - Topeka, KS 66603 (16.5 mi) - Writing Tutor - $37.00/hr.
I have been driven my entire life to assist others. I started working in the health care industry as a CNA, 1979. I then went to college and obtained my social work degrees. I worked in various settings to include nursing homes, mental health centers, prisons, adolescent group homes and currently home health care, 1987 to 2009. I am currently pursing additional nursing education, so I can combine my knowledge in the social work arena with nursing. Throughout my work history, I was responsible for educational components, with staff, families and communities. I also worked as an outreach instructor for a community college, teaching classes such as psychology to criminal justice. I love working with people and seeing them succeed. I tend to meet the person at the level where they are at, then adapt the lessons to their learning style. I am very creative and strive to make learning f

Anna R - Lawrence, KS 66047 (24.6 mi) - Writing Tutor - $37.00/hr.
Because each individual student is important to me, I seek to get to know each student personally while retaining a professional demeanor. This helps me understand the student's particular needs so that I may teach the student most effectively. My naturally gentle personality makes me a patient and encouraging teacher. I strive to help each student grasp concepts rather than merely memorizing facts. I also encourage learning through discovery and hands-on experience as much as possible. I think learning is fun, and I try to communicate that enthusiasm to my students. Learning and helping others learn are among my highest priorities in life. My high academic honors reflect this drive to learn: I earned magna cum laude in college, and I was valedictorian of my high school class. My degree in English Education gave me a strong grasp of English grammar, composition, and literature; it also g

Julie M - Douglas, GA 31535 (25.2 mi) - Writing Tutor - $36.00/hr.
I have always enjoyed working with children, especially in a school setting. I am very good at working one-on-one with people and tailoring my communication and teaching style to best fit the student or listener. I am very keen at ascertaining the needs and personalities of many different people and I am very patient and adept at listening. I enjoy seeing a child's eyes light up once he or she has grasped a difficult concept or conquered a tough subject. I believe that education is one of the most influential forces in shaping a child's development and I love to get the opportunity to be a part of that. I have been tutoring for many years with different kinds of children. To begin with, I tutored my younger sister starting when she was about seven years old to age twelve or thirteen. In high school, I also volunteered for an after-school program for Hispanic children ages seven-twe

David H - Lawrence, KS 66044 (25.9 mi) - Writing Tutor - $39.00/hr.
I have always enjoyed working with children. I believe that having as many positive role-models as possible can really help to shape a student's outlook on not only their education, but how they will tackle problems and opportunities in their lives for a long time. If a student learns that it takes hard work and discipline to achieve good grades and a great education from the beginning, it can help him or her to really do great things later on in life. With that being said, I genuinely care for kids as well. I consider myself a nurturing and yet challenging coach, mentor and tutor because I understand that often times students that are in need of academic help are often also in need of people that genuinely care about their well-being. Through my English and Creative Writing degree at the University of Missouri, I have earned a lot of experience in the field of English. My reading c
