Mary S - Salinas, CA 93906 (24.3 mi) - SAT - Verbal Tutor - $46.50/hr.
Teaching can be a most wonderful adventure. I believe every child can learn. At times students or overwhelming with new concepts, and they need to be encouraged, and praise until they can accomplish the task at hand. I enjoy seeing the appearence of awareness on a childs face, when they have accomplished a goal, or solved a problem they had difficulty solving. I believe tutoring a child can be a powerful tool, and it can also unleash a potential genius. As a graduate, I've been very blessed to have received a degree in Business Communication. In college I learned how to become a better educator, and communicate with them on the highest level. Although, I tutor in all of the academic areas, I also enjoy helping my student appreciate the art of becoming a good writer, and thinkers. My students are also encouraged to read for relaxation, and entertainment. Making the education process fun i

Brian P - Marina, CA 93933 (28.5 mi) - SAT - Verbal Tutor - $45.00/hr.
What interested me in a pursuing a teaching career was the tutoring experience I gained in high school and college. I started tutoring high school students in basic mathematics and science, and in college I was able to broaden my tutoring base to Spanish and English composition.
Regarding my 13 years of professional teaching experience, I have taught at the university, community college, and adult education levels. The courses I have designed and taught range from all levels of English as a Second Language to graduate technical writing and editing. I strongly believe that a successful tutor/teacher must know how to recognize students' individual learning styles and capitalize on their strengths. With all of my students, I make every effort to create a positive learning environment and to build their self-confidence. I have tutored many intelligent students who have developed mental bl

Chelsea P - Monterey, CA 95940 (29.1 mi) - SAT - Verbal Tutor - $48.50/hr.
In High School I discovered that not only was I skilled in math and science, but that I was effective in tutoring other students in these subjects. I started professionally tutoring students younger than me when I was a junior and continued until I graduated college. I successfully tutored students in Algebra, Geometry/Trig, Algebra 2, Pre-Calc, Chemistry, Physics, Biology, and SAT Prep.
I have taught swimming and been a lifeguard through American Red Cross since I was 16, and in 2007 decided to take the next step and become an instructor for them. I now teach CPR/First Aid, and Lifeguard Training for different facilities in the area. I feel that my largest teaching strength is the ability to identify where students are having problems and address those issues first. If students don't understand the fundamentals, it is impossible to teach them advanced concepts. In addition to this

Kelly S - Carmel, CA 93923 (29.4 mi) - SAT - Verbal Tutor - $47.00/hr.
After earning my BA and CA Teaching Credential in English, my love for the language and subject drove me to complete my MA in English and Comparative Literature in less than two years. Such an intense program demanded that I not only be highly organized, but that my analytical, writing, and verbal skills be immensely effective, as well. Consequently, I successfully translated these abilities to the many students I have taught and tutored over the past six years. Although I have instructed students in all the humanities (even basic French), my expertise is in English composition (essay writing) and the development of critical thinking skills regarding English literature. My former high school students used to tell me how much they appreciated my patience with them; modestly, I would have to agree with their assessment. I believe that individuals process information in different ways, and

Paul K - Pacific Grove, CA 93950 (30.7 mi) - SAT - Verbal Tutor - $50.00/hr.
I have devoted myself to teaching as a profession for the last fourteen years because I feel a sense of worth in what I do. I believe that my role is that of a facilitator. My job is to help students define their goals, explore the resources they have at hand to reach those goals, and facilitate the process of meeting those goals. My choice to teach also rests on a foundation of community. As a college instructor, my worth is tied to more than the success of individual students. I strive to help students become an integral part of the communities in which they live, and I celebrate the fact that I play an instrumental role in the economic, social, and educational edification of my community. I have more than 14 years of experience as a Literature, Language, Business Communications, Technical Writing, and Composition Instructor at the college level. I hold a Master of Arts degree in Engli

Matthew M - Gilroy, CA 95020 (39 mi) - SAT - Verbal Tutor - $46.50/hr.
Throughout the course of my education, I have had the opportunity to work with many great instructors and professors; learning the qualities and characteristics of what comprises an effective teacher. I currently possess two degrees, a Bachelors of Arts in Social Science with an emphasis in Teaching Preparation and a Masters of Science in Environmental Management. While I consider myself highly competent and comfortable teaching anything within California’s kindergarten through twelth grade curriculum, my strengths lie within my background and education in science and mathematics. I have also garnered over two years of providing instruction in preparing for the SAT. Over my years of experience providing supplemental instruction to a diverse range of students, I have found that I possess a breadth of knowledge and interpersonal skill-sets that make me an effective teacher.

paul s - aptos, CA 95003 (45.1 mi) - SAT - Verbal Tutor - $47.00/hr.
I am comfortable lecturing on various subjects. However, I have seen the best results with repetition and continual reinforcement of the subject matter while weaving in larger ideas here and there. I am calm, patient, persistent, and supportive of everyone's particular abilities. In 2009, I completed a profession editing certificate to add to my degrees in English and rhetoric. Because of this experience, I am confident teaching and tutoring the humanities (English, history, philosophy, etc.) at high-school and college levels. For two years, I have taught all subjects as an aid in a fourth and fifth grade special day (SDC) class. This experience has taught me effective ways to teach difficult material to young learners with particular learning needs.
