Lisa E. - Sparks, NV 89434 (5.7 mi) - Elementary Math Tutor - $35.00/hr.
For Science and Math I employ an inquiry-based method of teaching/exploration. This allows for more meaningful learning and gives the student the opportunity to learn on his or her own before being given instruction by the teacher. This method is aligned with the STEM initiative in the United States.
For Language Arts, reading, and Spanish, I teach by individualizing instruction to each child, allowing for meaning-making and communication rather than simply rote learning of facts and vocabulary. I believe in combining a more traditional, rote approach with the more progressive whole-language approach to create a well-rounded literacy curriculum. I have 6 years of substitute teaching experience in the Washoe County School District in Nevada, as well as at a charter school. Substitute teaching has allowed me to work with children from preschool to grade 12, in all subjects. I have wor

Trudy M. - Reno, NV 89503 (6 mi) - Elementary Math Tutor - $30.00/hr.
I have a masters degree in Enviornmental Biology and a BA in pre-med sciences. I also have an AA degree in Dietetics. My other hat is a long career in writing, editing, and publishing. So, I am a grammarian and have taught English composition.
I have been a substitute teacher for more than eight years in elementary, middle, and high school. During this time, I also have done private tutoring through the University of Nevada, usually one-on-one. However, with the after school programs, I have been group tutoring.
I also worked as a teacher of English as a Second Language for adults in the evening program of our local community college for three years.
Subjects tutored include math, biology, anatomy, and English. My style of tutoring is creative flexibility. I assess the student's learning style and try to adapt to that, using different senses (kinetic, aural, oral) to trigge

Alexis G. - Reno, NV 89521 (9.3 mi) - Elementary Math Tutor - $42.50/hr.
I've been tutoring since high schools in a wide range of subjects, such as latin, algebra II, and biology. The skills you use to teach yourself the material can be directly applied to someone else, especially when you find something does not click at first. I have a number of mnemonics for helping my tutees retain the material they've spent time learning. In college I don't tutor professionally because of time constraints, but I help other students understand problems they may be having difficulty with. I've also had my own SAT tutor and seen different programs and their styles, and I've chosen the one that I find the most effective.

Ronda H - Sparks, NV 89434-1749 (1.4 mi) - Elementary Math Tutor - $39.00/hr.
My teaching style is very creative. Yes, I believe in teaching the basics, but make learning fun. I like to do fun games or art projects or use music to inspire and teach the children. That way they will have fun and learn at the same time. My experience is not as a liscensed teacher. I have been more of an assistant or tutor. I have worked with k-6th grade students-some of which are/were physically and /or mentally challenged.

Rost O - Sparks, NV 89431 (1.6 mi) - Elementary Math Tutor - $37.00/hr.
I have always been driven as a student. I earned my bachelor's degree in only 3 and a half years, and I will begin a terminal degree program this fall when I begin an MFA program at Eastern Washington University. Although I have never been a formal tutor, I feel that I can pick it up rather quickly, as I have been in a teaching role during my time as a personal trainer. I have also had creative work published in the last four editions of The Brushfire, and I have served as the editor of the newsletter of the last company for which I worked. I am very passionate about English, partly because I struggled with it myself. I never received an A in a high school English class until my senior year; yet, I received a BA in the subject only four short years after I received a D- in my AP English class during the second semester of my junior year in high school. I can relate to these students and

Bradley G - Sparks, NV 89431 (1.6 mi) - Elementary Math Tutor - $38.50/hr.
My experience in tutoring computers for the last 6 years and facilitating study sessions in college for the last 4 years has refined my skills in directing absorption of knowledge in a direction that is organized and on-task. As an avid and trained grammarian and writer, my strengths are in English. As such, I was a paid tutor for Syntax, Principles of Modern Grammar, Phonology and Sociolinguistics classes over a few semesters. However, I am malleable to teach any subject to which I am exposed (astronomy, science, etc). You can always expect a professional approach to the job from me. A strength on which I have always prided myself is my ability to relate complex concepts with useful analogies and from different angles. I never underestimate a child's ability to learn something, so long as it's in a way in which they understand it. Curriculum development is also important. By that

Leanna J - Sparks, NV 89431 (1.8 mi) - Elementary Math Tutor - $42.50/hr.
Not only working with children, but teaching them has always been a passion of mine. I have worked at the YMCA of the Sierra for almost 4 years, and tutoring children through UNR has been such a pleasure and privilege. I have gained the insight and honest understanding that any child, with specialized help, can move far beyond their educational and emotional expectations and abilities, proving to especially themselves their own potential. I used the method of Behavior Analysis during my tutoring of Autistic children, which has truly taught me a lot in respect to creative methods and organized procedures for teaching and/or tutoring children. In attending the University of Nevada, Reno, I was introduced to and involved with several programs working with youth. I was a CASA (Court Appointed Special Advocate) working with children who were removed from their home for various reasons. (Paren

KimberlyAnne D - Reno, NV 89512 (3.1 mi) - Elementary Math Tutor - $54.00/hr.
I have a friendly, encouraging approach with my students; I like them to feel comfortable working with me, but I also let them know that I have high expectations and that our tutoring sessions are not social time. My goal is to get students to understand the material and feel comfortable discussing and applying it, so my tutoring sessions are often very conversational. I provide a lot of feedback and will have students practice difficult concepts multiple times before moving on because I believe that practice is a key component to learning. I like to get to know my students and pinpoint their academic strengths and weaknesses so that together we can build on those things. I recently graduated from University of Nevada, Reno summa cum laude. I was also my high school valedictorian. I have always excelled in school because I love learning and have great organization and study skills.

Peggy D - Reno, NV 89502 (3.5 mi) - Elementary Math Tutor - $37.50/hr.
I love helping others learn and grow and achieve! I especially enjoy seeing the glow on a child's face as they realize they "get it" - they have conquered and overcome some hurdle or difficulty.
The same is basically true with adults. I really enjoy helping them get the report or information they need from an application. It is so liberating for them to know they can find what they need (or want) on their own. I have been preparing and conducting adult coursework for a variety of computer - based applications and software for 15 or more years. The courses were done in large lecture environments (30 or more at a time) and also small or individuals sessions, and remote (phone and web-ex) deliveries. I am experienced in assessing group attitude and individual needs and am told that I am very adept at putting my "students" at ease, both through delivery style and in customizing and b

Rex R - Reno, NV 89502 (4 mi) - Elementary Math Tutor - $38.00/hr.
The key to success in any field is overcoming fear. I used to have a fear of some classes, until I decided I was going to face my fears and tackle the subjects. I can break down long problems and concepts into smaller components that are easier to understand. Math or science can be broken down into baby steps or bite size pieces. I work to make the subject as simple and logical to the student so they can master the subject. My goal is not to simply hand out fish, but to teach them how to catch their own fish. I have plenty of classroom experience. I have worked as a substitute teacher for every grade level possible from pre-kindergarten all the way to adult school.
I can work with all ages and grade levels depending on your needs. I can tutor the most basic of skills to more advanced formulas that require in depth analysis. I have tutored for a couple of friends before and in both inst

Anpalaki Annie R - Reno, NV 89512 (4.4 mi) - Elementary Math Tutor - $34.00/hr.
I have always enjoyed teaching. I love teaching. I am always available to help children and I never get tired of teaching and helping children. I am always there to answer any question and I encourage students to ask questions. Children love me for my patience, availability and approachability. I treat all children alike and never discriminate. I encourage and help students do their homework and I find and use special techniques to explain difficult and hard to understand topics. I am well educated and I have gained a lot of good ideas about how a teacher should be from my learning experiences. I have taught students of many different grade levels, so I know how to determine a student's strengths and weaknesses very well. I hold a B.S. degree in Biostatistics, and 4 M.S. degrees in Statistics, Mathematics and Engineering. I have taken several undergraduate and graduate MATH courses and a
