Rachel B. - Chapel Hill, NC 27514 (24.3 mi) - PSAT Tutor - $40.00/hr.
As a masters degree holding physicist I have an extensive background in both physics and mathematics. Additionally, as a published author and the author of many research papers and lab reports I have considerable grammatical skills, and writing experience. My whole educational career tutoring my classmates and siblings has come as second nature to me, but I have had official teaching assistant and course assistant roles in helping edit student essays, and in introductory physics courses. Additionally, I have tutored students in astronomy, chemistry, history of science, and mathematics at levels ranging from basic arithmetic to calculus. I also have considerable experience with standardized testing, drawing and painting. I am a calm, patient, and easy-going person who loves learning and loves helping others to learn. I enjoy adapting to different learning styles, and want to help ea

Jeannine H - Durham, NC 27704 (13.1 mi) - PSAT Tutor - $40.50/hr.
As a veteran teacher of French at all levels, I have spent years in the classroom motivating and encouraging students to see their own potential and to strive to achieve their very best. I have a bachelor's degree and a master's degree in French, with time spent during my degree programs studying abroad in France, in West Africa and in Quebec. These experiences abroad have allowed me to experience other cultures and to hone my French language skills over the years. I have tutored students of various ages in French as well as in other subjects, such as reading, language arts and math. I love teaching about language (French and English)and helping students discover and master how to communicate clearly and effectively. I love learning and teaching language, and I enjoy sharing that joy and excitement with students. I am excited about seeing students overcome obstacles and reach their acade

Mariama M - Durham, NC 27704 (13.2 mi) - PSAT Tutor - $51.00/hr.
As a mathematics major, I tutored undergrad and grad students who experienced difficulty in their math courses, during the summer and the regular school year. Throughout my nine years of teaching, I've taught a variety of subjects, and I have learned how to build mature learners and effectively prepare students to be successful in their future math classes. As a current high school department chair, I teach Algebra. I've tutored middle, and high school students in 6th-8th Pre-Algebra, Algebra 1, Geometry, Algebra 2, Pre-Calculus, Advanced Functions and Modeling, and Discrete Math.

JoAnna S - Durham, NC 27712 (13.6 mi) - PSAT Tutor - $34.50/hr.
I love tutoring and mentoring. I naturally adapt my style to that of each student. As part of the instruction, I often ask easy questions to help them discover the rules of math for themselves. By doing this, my students quickly find concepts that were difficult for them begin to make sense! I also encourage them to ask about everything in the lesson they don’t fully understand. I am very patient, caring and encouraging. I help my students build confidence, self-esteem and a positive attitude. I have taught, tutored, trained and mentored students of all ages for more than 15 years. My background includes being a math teacher and adjunct professor. I taught at colleges in New Jersey and at Duke University. The students I tutor are often in grades 5-12, in college or preparing to return to school. I also have several years experience applying math to real world situations, includ

Ryan C - Durham, NC 27701 (14.7 mi) - PSAT Tutor - $39.00/hr.
When I approach a student I've never worked with, my first priority is to make them feel comfortable by letting them see that I am a very nice, friendly, and compassionate person that they might like to have as a friend. Next I try to get them to tell me about themselves in some way (what they've been working on, their favorite subjects) to try to encourage them to speak freely with me about what they're thinking. Then, after personal rapport is established, I begin my academic approach to tutoring by finding out how they think based on their interests or common themes, and I try to connect the material to these things. Children have trouble learning, often because the addressed concepts don't relate to their lives. I strive to connect the material to them, demonstrate its influence on their interests, and allow them to greet the academic engagement as some sort of useful tool, not a

Jason R - Durham, NC 27705 (15 mi) - PSAT Tutor - $38.50/hr.
I believe all growth in the classroom has to come from a positive relationship between the student and the teacher. The excitement of learning can only come in an environment in which the student is comfortable and relaxed. Accordingly, I relate to each student on a personal level and try to make each lesson as interactive as possible. When a lesson is interactive, the student will be more engaged. Furthermore, lessons are better remembered when reinforced by hearing, speaking, and moving. I come from a strong background in community building and civic leadership. I was drawn to teaching by the simple pleasure of working with students and the joy of being able to pass on what I have learned with others. During the last couple of years, I have worked with students of a variety of ages and in a variety of settings. I have experience ranging from teaching high school history, to serv

Tiffany G - Durham, NC 27708 (15 mi) - PSAT Tutor - $44.00/hr.
As soon as I reached high school, I became interested in mentoring those younger than me and this passion still carries me. With the guidance of my mother, who has been a teacher and tutor for over 20 years, I began to tutor elementary school children in Math, Science, Writing, and oral presentation skills. My mother, as the founder of Gillin Tutoring Services, trained me on how to tutor most effectively. As a graduate of Duke University, I have had education in a number of subjects including, Mathematics, English/Literature, Spanish, Science (particularly, Biology and Chemistry) as well as the arts. I love teaching children through unique and innovative methods, whether it be through songs in order to help with memorization or presenting the students with real life situations to navigate through. I am mainly hands on and very visual. I feel that these are ultimately the best ways to hel

Frederick B - Durham, NC 27705 (15.6 mi) - PSAT Tutor - $39.50/hr.
During my time at Duke I enjoyed rigorous pre-medical subjects like biology and chemistry, but my interests also include English and psychology. I graduated cum laude in May 2009 with B.A. degrees in Pre-Med and English/History/Psychology. More importantly, I have tutored biology, writing/grammatical skills, English, psychology, and chemistry to a wide range of students—from college to elementary aged. I hope to put my 4 years of tutoring experience to work for you! I enjoy being with people! I envision our discussions as part of an exciting collaboration to capitalize upon your strengths and learn in the most effective, efficient, and fun way. We will learn collaboratively to insure you understand what WE have talked about before I leave. I will break down abstract concepts into simple examples and respond to your feedback immediately in a focused yet relaxed atmosphere.

Pam L - Durham, NC 27705 (15.6 mi) - PSAT Tutor - $39.50/hr.
I believe a good teacher can push students to discover their intrinsic motivation for learning. I relate academic content to real world applications relevant to the students' lives. Learning with a purpose is where I try to focus my students. Working with children in the past has given me experience to work with all types of learners. I am very patient, fun and determined to help students succeed. I have just finished all coursework at Duke University for BA in Mathematics. Next semester, I will work at Jordan HS as a student teacher in AP Statistics and Algebra I classrooms. I participated in the Budapest Semesters in Mathematics program in Hungary from Jan 2010-May 2010. Last summer I worked at NASA Ames Research Center doing mathematical modeling and statistical analysis of data for the Intelligent Spacecraft Interface Systems Lab.

Aishia C - Durham, NC 27705 (15.7 mi) - PSAT Tutor - $37.50/hr.
My teaching style is simple. As it has not been professionally nurtured I have taken my ques from those I have taught. It is simply to provide what is needed. I prefer to spend time with a student and learn what works for them. I believe trial of multiple styles to find success is critical to each student. Additionally, there is nothing wrong with having fun while you learn! As the child of a school system administrative professional, I have always spent extra time in the school environment. As a high school freshman I began to tutor elementary school students based on the needs highlighted by their teachers. I spent a lot of time working one on one with English as a secound language students. I assisted with their writting, reading, and basic math skills. Additionally I work particularly well with withdrawn children who need special attention.
