Marla O. - Cheney, WA 99004 (20.3 mi) - Elementary Tutor - $27.50/hr.
For years I have helped the children of family and friends with reading homework. I believe that every child learns in their own way. I have studied behavior for many years and I find it rewarding that once you take the time and learn of a child's way of learning, I bring in empathy to understand how to help them to their needs. Not everyone learns the same way. It is up to the teacher to teach them successfully. The style that I feel the child can learn from the best.

Kathy W - SPOKANE, WA 99224 (33 mi) - Elementary Tutor - $40.50/hr.
I am a motivated individual. I love teaching and working with all children. I believe all children can learn, I can be the tool that helps them find the key to unlock the success that they hold within. I am available to help your child find academic success. I am patient, easy going, and considerate. My goal is to provide the best education possible. Children learn best through discovery and from experiences. I believe all children can meet their potential if they are given the opportunity. A few good educators can make a world of difference in a child's education. I strive to make a difference in all of my students' lives. My greatest accomplishment in life shines in the lives of those that I have touched through teaching. I have taught everything from infant/toddlers to the elderly. I have devoted my life to children and education. I spent alot of my time working in daycar

Katherine F - Spokane, WA 99201 (35.8 mi) - Elementary Tutor - $36.00/hr.
Throughout my recent graduate courses in social work, I've remained active in my teaching and feel the better able I am to listen and understand, the more prepared I am to teach. I believe learning to be a joyful experience and am not only patient in the moments where a concept is yet to be grasped, but happy to meet the challenge and find a new way to express an idea or create a new opportunity for a child to have that "aha!" moment. Above all else, I am flexible and understand that there is no single way to learn. I will adapt as necessary, but remain consistent in my expectations, always believing that with support, all children can succeed. I am trained and experienced in individual, small-group, and classroom instruction and curriculum design in a variety of settings with youth in kindergarten through college.
I have a strong background in integrated curricula and project-based/

Tracy S - Spokane, WA 99203 (36.1 mi) - Elementary Tutor - $41.50/hr.
I have taught as a program director, a school volunteer, and a community college instructor. While the majority of my experience has been with high school students, I have also worked with elementary and middle school students, college undergraduates and medical students. I have also provided continuing education for high school and middle school science teachers. My approach to tutoring in most cases is to help students find answers themselves through questioning and examples rather than by giving direct instruction, which I reserve for students who are struggling with course content rather than understanding. I believe that all students have the capacity to learn and that many undermine themselves by not having faith in their own abilities. The experience of mastering content and understanding can help a student not only with the subject matter at hand, but also with their future stu

Patricia K - SPOKANE, WA 99208 (36.2 mi) - Elementary Tutor - $36.50/hr.
My teaching style is to captivate the student's interest with hands on activities that demonstrate academic concepts. After the student understands the concrete real life connection, then we move into the abstract representation of the same concept in print. Each student has strengths and weaknesses that I try to understand and adapt lessons to their unique method of understanding. I also find it effective to teach students with familiar vocabulary that they already understand and then build new ideas upon their previous knowledge. I find it best to communicate with other educators in each child's life to compliment the focus of other studies using the same ideas, but seeing them in different ways. I am a professional teacher, tutor, and educational assistant for more than twenty five years of experience in international schools, public and private U.S. schools. I have teaching certif

James K - Spokane, WA 99210 (36.4 mi) - Elementary Tutor - $36.50/hr.
I integrate as many subjects as possible and seek to provide the missing schema, background experience and knowledge, that is critical to learning to a true state of understanding and mastery. Every subject is interesting to a child who can understand it and apply it. Through an understanding of social styles, learning styles,multiple intelligences and the best of brain-based research, I provide that experience to every student. My last class was a self-contained 6th grade, with a 34% ELL and 14% special education population. My class average reading level rose from 4.6 to 7.1. Of all the students in the school who surpassed the required State testing and higher District goals in both reading and math, 75% came from my class, as did the winners of the school's essay contest, spelling bee and geography competition.
My first career was in medicine where I gave direct care, tau

Briana S - Spokane, WA 99201 (36.7 mi) - Elementary Tutor - $41.00/hr.
Teaching is my passion and I can't imagine doing anything else. I love my students and they love me because I provide hands-on, kinesthetic, and rememorable lessons. My patience and understanding makes it easy for children to feel comfortable with me; therefore, they are more open to working with me and truly grasping the standards they must learn. My method of teaching centers around talking with the student, watching his/her habits, and learning how they learn best-visually, auditorially, kinesthecially, etc. My goal is to help students retain the study skills and habits they need to transfer over to the classroom independently. I started teaching English-Language Arts & U.S. History in central California, where I taught 8th graders for two years. Then I moved to South Korea, where I taught ESL for one year. After that amazing experience, I moved to South Lake Tahoe and taught English

Melanie J - Spokane, WA 99223 (37.2 mi) - Elementary Tutor - $43.50/hr.
I love to experience the thrill of success as a child begins to understand. I enjoy seeing their confusion transform into understanding. I believe children have brilliant minds that just need to be directed or focused in a way that incorporates their frame of reference. I have seen how children become excited with learning as they understand concepts and begin to apply them to practical situations. I believe children love to learn! Sometimes they just need to have some direction along the way. I find great satisfaction in helping a child build confidence with learning. As "stay at home" mom of 6, I have used my two Bachelors' degrees for the education of my own children. I've taught them essential reading and writing skills, study habits, organization skills, science projects, practical application of principles, and a love of learning. I have also home schooled my children. I te

Keegan M - Spokane, WA 99203 (37.3 mi) - Elementary Tutor - $36.50/hr.
I work to explore and supplement the existing knowledge of each student. I do not give answers but rather provide direction and support. Quantitative problems require self-confidence,I help students develop poise. I have earned dual undergraduate degrees, a BA in Mathematics and a BA in Economics, from Eastern Washington University. While attending EWU I worked as a econometrics tutor and teaching assistant. I have been admitted to a PhD program at Washington State University for this coming fall. Through tutoring at EWU, I have demonstrated an ability to effectively communicate with diverse populations. I have strong quantitative skills in mathematical, statistical and economic contexts.

Angela L - Spokane, WA 99218 (40.6 mi) - Elementary Tutor - $39.50/hr.
I strive to help the child discover the potential that is in them. I do this by patiently and calmly introducing methods and activities in a fun light environment. Positive reinforcement is paramount to a student that feels unsure or that is falling behind. I have also found that in order to help the child you first must get a firm grasp on how that child learns and how the material make sense to them. I have been amazed by some of the small things that can be changed in order for a student to excell and grow in confidence. I would be honored to share with others what I have been blessed to discover through my child. With Bachelors degree in hand, I started my journey working independently as a sales rep, corporate trainer, store owner, and admissions representative and financial aid advisor. I have always thrived by managing, helping and tutoring others. However, my greatest lear

Margaret D - Spokane Valley, WA 99206 (42.5 mi) - Elementary Tutor - $35.00/hr.
I believe students will rise to the level of expectations set for them. I am a bit of a comedian, and I use humor to allay frustration in learning situations. I believe in setting goals and charting a specific path for reaching them, while being flexible enough to alter the path along the way. Praise and positive reinforcement are powerful tools when teaching challenging material, and I use them frequently. I received a BA in General Business from WSU, and was honored as a Cum Laude graduate. The courses were varied and included a wide array of math application, from supply and demand curves to interest rate calculations. My classmates gave me the nickname "Webster" because I was frequently asked to edit their papers and to tutor them in several different subjects. I love working with teenagers, and watching their faces change when they really GET a concept for the first time!

Elizabeth S - Colbert, WA 99005 (43.1 mi) - Elementary Tutor - $38.00/hr.
I try to match my teaching style and content to the interests and learning style of the individual. My varied background allows me to integrate subjects and give examples of applications, which makes topics more relevant to the student. I believe that respect, patience, and humor go along ways to making a learning experience positive. Since graduating from college with BS degrees in physical science, chemistry, and environmental education, I have taught math (basic through pre-calculus) and science (biology, chemistry, physics, life science, physical science) 5th through 12th grade in both private and public schools.
I worked two years at a Sylvan Learning Center as a Lead Teacher (and Director of Education) in almost all of their programs (Writing, Academic Reading, General Math, Algebra, Geometry, and SAT prep). In the last seven years, I have had my own part-time business tutori
