Joyce J - Enumclaw, WA 98022 (5.1 mi) - Vocals Tutor - $44.00/hr.
I believe that all learning builds upon a foundation of previous learning. The key to helping a student to retain information is to make certain that student possesses all the prior knowledge needed to support the new information. For example, it is very difficult to teach a student the concept of the passive verb voice if that student does not understand the difference between a verb and other parts of speech.
I am a knowledge junkie and really enjoy discovering new things. As a teacher I often lead students down proverbial side roads that will introduce them to subjects they might not have otherwise studied. I began teaching when I was homeschooling my own children. They joined a weekly co-op and I was asked to teach high school level writing, public speaking and music appreciation for co-op students(not all at the same time). I discovered that students who took my classes we

Amy E - Sumner, WA 98390 (6.8 mi) - Vocals Tutor - $44.50/hr.
I consider myself to be fun and entertaining and very approachable in my teaching methods. I never lose patience with students and believe that making mistakes is equally as important as making progress. All students can become better writers with a little hard work and a bit of desire to do so, and I can give them the tools to produce their best writing to date. I have worked with at-risk children in the Chicago Public Schools system to teach a wide range of skills, primarily focusing on college readiness skills, essay and resume writing, ACT preparation, and remedial and advanced reading techniques. I am also highly qualified to teach speech and journalism, and have a year of experience in each as well. I feel I can make the most impact on students when I work with them one-on-one, and so I am excited to transition from the full-time teaching to the tutoring field.

Amelia C - Puyallup, WA 98373 (10.7 mi) - Vocals Tutor - $40.00/hr.
My teaching style, derived from a one on one approach as both a home tutor and teaching assistant, is simple: provide an open environment in which pupils feel free to ask any question. The most important aspects of tutoring are positive reinforcement, repetition, and assisting students as they develop confidence and learn to grasp and utilize the skills necessary to their academic and personal development. I feel that my personal education and tutoring experience is perfectly suited to developing a rapport with students while maintaining a professional teacher/pupil relationship. My experiences as a home school instructor for my children at the secondary level of education, as a personal tutor for SAT and GRE test preparation, and as a teaching assistant at the university level have provided me with the requisite skills to assist students at various levels of education. In addition to pr

Holly B - Milton, WA 98354 (11.5 mi) - Vocals Tutor - $41.00/hr.
Over the past years, I have developed written and verbal communication, interpersonal relationship, and group and individual student management skills. My experience also enables me to interact easily with people of diverse backgrounds, cultures, and age levels. I can plan and conduct group individualized training designed to enhance the knowledge and ability of students to complete their coursework. I use the student's interaction to organize, analyze, assess, and make recommendations based on individual talents and abilities. And throughout my years as a tutor, I have developed excellent critical thinking, analytical, research, problem solving, organizational, and communications skills. I have had 7 years experience as math and science tutor, tutoring a variety of age groups from grade school through college. I have assisted students in the following science subjects: general Biology,

Gabriel T - Seattle, WA 98101 (20.7 mi) - Vocals Tutor - $41.00/hr.
During my studies at USU I worked at Adams Elementary both as a Teachers Aid as well as a Mentor during the After School Program. I worked one-on-one as well as in groups of students grade k-5. This position was one of the most rewarding and enjoyable that I've had and would love to continue.
I have also taught American Sign Language at the University in their ASL Labs for a year. Everyone has the ability to learn but not everyone has the same ability. Most people are visual or tactile learners whereas most teachers, in my experience, use verbal/aural instruction methods. I believe in tailoring my teaching to the needs of the student and not to what I am most relaxed with. I have personally taught several tactile students who had to have something in their hands or they could not grasp the concepts. Other times I've instructed students in strong visual methods incorporating drawings, ar

Stephen H - Seattle, WA 98103 (34 mi) - Vocals Tutor - $41.00/hr.
During my undergraduate years at the University of Oregon, I spent several months in Mexico teaching English to children ranging in age from 6-15. During this time I perfected my Spanish as well, and wrote many papers in both Spanish and English.
While pursuing my Electrical Engineering degree at the University of Tulsa, I taught Kumon math classes to children, and fellow Engineering students in electronics. I have kept up my French reading and speaking skills.
Recently I have been intensively studying dance, especially salsa, Argentine tango, and African, and have been taking some ballet classes. I find that I am very effective at helping beginning dance students to develop their talents. I am good at tuning in with each individual's basic nature, and working with the talents that they do have but may not recognize. Through patience and a playful sense of fun, I can help people
