Linda D. - Santa Rosa, CA 95409 (38.5 mi) - Writing Skills Tutor - $30.00/hr.
In 2001, I was a teachers aide at American Canyon Middle School, in American Canyon, CA, Napa County. I assisted the teachers in the classrooms with grading papers, entered the students tests and quiz scores in the computer and helped them after school with their reading and writing lessons. I was awarded for my Service to the Napa County Education Community Certificate for excellence and contribution to education by Congressman Mike Thompson of the 5th District of California.

Marc P - Camp Meeker, CA 95419 (25.1 mi) - Writing Skills Tutor - $41.00/hr.
I was a community college English teacher for 12 years at Vista Community College in Berkeley, CA (now Berkeley City College). I taught in a special program tailored to working adults who had returned to school in order to earn their Associate of Arts degrees. This was not an academically confident population. They required enormous encouragement, personal attention, and coaching. I was very successful in this position because I was willing to talk with students on the phone, meet with them after class, and even respond to their essays at length on cassette tapes--my own idea! My approach to teaching is to provide what is needed, and sometimes that is not limited to the explicit task at hand. As an English teacher/tutor, I have often found that, rather than merely showing students how to recognize a complete sentence and use correct punctuation and grammar, the more important thing is to

Jim D - Ukiah, CA 95482 (28.5 mi) - Writing Skills Tutor - $47.00/hr.
I discovered my gift for teaching as an undergraduate and it has been my life's work. My approach is to guide students in making their discoveries rather than making them remember what I discovered and told them about. Making their own discoveries, guided by me, they feel better about themselves as learners, bring more of themselves to the learning process, and develop greater confidence and competence. You can read more about my approach on my blog: http://masterylearningsystems.wordpress.com/ My most recent department chair, Dr. Marie Jureit called me the best teacher on campus. I've taught and tutored students for 37 years in music theory and composition, music of Africa and Latin America, and mathematics through college freshman algebra. As Director of the Freshman Program, I was responsible for designing and implementing programs in developing reading and writing proficiency, and o

John S - Mendocino, CA 95460 (42.3 mi) - Writing Skills Tutor - $49.00/hr.
Everyone has style of teaching that is unique. Mine is at first appearance very laid back, but on closer inspection is very powerful and extremely effective in the long run. My strategy as a teacher is to study and assess a student first, then to develop a plan with the student regarding how we should approach a task or problem. I am big on having students develop a stronger internal locus of control, empowering them to feel capable to tackle anything that they might encounter with or without the help of others. I first started teaching in 2003 as a substitute to supplement the income from my guiding business during the slower portion of the year. After showing that I was very capable in the classroom and could quickly develop a strong rapport with coworkers and students, I was hired for the year when another teacher left unexpectedly. I went to school for the next year at the University

Michael B - Clearlake Oaks, CA 95423 (42.5 mi) - Writing Skills Tutor - $54.00/hr.
I am a graduate of Chico State with a BS in Computer Science and I was a student of their honors program. I was not a formal tutor, but I spent a lot of time with junior classmates helping them to understand their projects and meet their deadlines.
After graduating, I worked as an instructor at Mendocino College. I taught computer science classes to young adults from different backgrounds and with different learning styles.
I worked as an Instructional Aide at Charter Academy of the Redwoods. I worked with middle and high school students throughout the day and tutored individual students on occasion. As a student, I am driven to understand the nature of things. As a teacher, I work to help others understand them. From my experience, I have learned to be patient with people who are afraid of failure and to push students who are easily bored with basic work.
I have earned a bachel
