Katherine S. - Onamia, MN 56359 (41.3 mi) - Algebra Tutor - $32.50/hr.
I have 2 BS degrees but excelled in math classes. I absolutely love Algebra. When my stepson was going to college, he was failing his Algebra class. I told him to bring his book over and I would help him. He was content to pass the class with a "D". I told him we would shoot for an "A". He passed the class with a "B". Visual, verbal

I am a certified high school teacher with over six years of experience teaching and tutoring in the states as well as abroad.

I spent a year living in Mexico and six months in Spain and now speak Spanish fluently. My education and experience has been primarily in the areas of English/ literature/ ESL/ grammar/ composition/ reading/ spelling and phonics, but I also have experience tutoring and teaching learners in the maths and sciences. I love teaching and discovering how to best meet the needs of individual learners who come to the classroom with unique backgrounds, aptitudes, interests, motivations, and personalities.

Michael E - Moose Lake, MN 55767 (10.3 mi) - Algebra Tutor - $36.00/hr.
As a Big Ten graduate from Penn State University, I was very much driven to push myself in a wide variety of subjects to achieve a well-rounded education. But I also earned my Master of Fine Arts in Creative Writing from National University in La Jolla, Calif. My undergrad degree in Film and Video/Communications. I've also spent time in the US Air Force where I received training in newspaper writing and photography. I have learned extensive grammatical skills due to writing research papers for my graduate level classes, along with essays in many various areas of study. I've been a substitute teacher for several years for grades k-12. I love teaching and working with all children of all ages and believe all children can learn, but I've learned that students learn in different ways. As part of that, I love encouraging students to believe in themselves and not settle for the status

Jaime W - Saginaw, MN 55779 (40.2 mi) - Algebra Tutor - $33.00/hr.
Teaching is a passion of mine. I enjoy teaching students of all ages. I believe that kindness, patience, and understanding are necessary characteristics when teaching students. With the proper motivation and guidance, all students possess the ability to learn. I teach my students with humor and respect. I like to make them feel at ease so they can focus solely on the material with which they need to study and learn. Learning should be a fun and rewarding experience. My students feel good about the progress they have made and look forward to achieving future successes. My goal is to foster independent thinking and help teach students the tools to learn on their own. I earned my bachelor degree from the University of Minnesota Duluth in Teaching Secondary Mathematics and Secondary Earth and Space Science in 2001. Since that time, I have been teaching secondary classes at the same

Erena S - Duluth, MN 55807 (40.3 mi) - Algebra Tutor - $35.00/hr.
As University of Minnesota Duluth graduate, I excelled in studies of math, physics, logic, critical thinking, and accounting. I earned two degrees: Bachelor of Accounting and Associate of Arts. I received a high excellence grade in math and physics courses and was preselected by math instructors to tutor any math course through Calculus I and to grade Calculus I and Math for Elementary School Teachers. In addition, I illustrated outstanding knowledge of English grammar skills. I enjoy working with children. My volunteering experience with children at Grant Elementary gave me opportunity to realize how much I enjoy teaching. I believe that any child can meet his or her potential if he or she is given proper direct approach. I am also a mother of fourteen-year-old, eight-year-old, and one-year-old. These diversified children age groups allow me to have a clear understanding of educational

Kelsey H - Duluth, MN 55806 (44.5 mi) - Algebra Tutor - $33.50/hr.
I am currently a medical student at the University of Minnesota Medical School Duluth. Before I started medical school I worked as a tutor for six years with two teenage boys with autism. Under the six years of my tutoring, both of these "disabled" kids were completely mainstreamed and even taking some AP and challenge classes. I believe that any kid can learn if they are taught in a way that is fun and structured. I tutored these kids in Math, Science, Social Studies and English. I also spent a semester as a Teaching Assistant in an upper level Philosophy course during my undergrad. Most of my TA tutoring was helping college students write papers. I tend to teach things in a visual way. Drawing pictures, diagrams and using visual aides are the best ways I have witnessed to teach kids. I also think a structured reward system is HUGE in motivating kids to succeed. You need to find out wha

Robb W - Duluth, MN 55812 (46 mi) - Algebra Tutor - $37.00/hr.
I am three semesters away from completing two degrees, BS Biochemistry and Molecular Biology as well as BS Chemistry, at the University of Minnesota Duluth. I have a solid background in mathematics as well as biology and chemistry. I tutored math, pre-algebra through first semester calculus, at Lake Superior College from the beginning of fall semester 2008 to the end of spring semester 2009. I enjoy working one on one or with small groups of students. I enjoy the challenges of tutoring teenagers, as well as adults. I am a firm believer in teaching by example, and gaining fundamental understanding of material as opposed to “teaching for a test.” I engage students and try to challenge the confidant while offering support to the less self-assured. The reason that I choose to tutor is not so much for the money but for the gratifying feeling of helping someone succeed, and I sincerely b

Elin E - Duluth, MN 55812 (46.1 mi) - Algebra Tutor - $35.00/hr.
I have taken more than the amount of credits I need to graduate with a BA in mathematics from Luther College. I have minors in physics and chemistry. I have always enjoyed math. I have assisted an elementary school teacher in tutoring mathematics. I have assisted middle and high school aged children in learning mathematics when they have not attended class or have fallen behind. When tutoring I usually ask prompting questions to assist the person in working through a problem. By building off of the skills the student already has it helps them better understand the process. If a student is learning new material or does not understand the way something was explained I will try to come up with an alternative method. I will go through an example with them step by step ensuring that they understand what happens along the way. I try to relate problems to real life so that they will rem

Artur S - Duluth, MN 55812 (46.1 mi) - Algebra Tutor - $40.00/hr.
As I work with my tutee, at first, I establish a friendly contact that could lead us towards a more effective tutoring session. I am a very friendly and kind person and I would love to work with students of different ages. I hope to create a relaxing environment to make my tutee feel more open and comfortable. I believe my primary responsibility as a tutor is to create independent learners. Tutors should, essentially, work themselves out of their job. I believe in it because once my tutee becomes independent, he or she reaches the top level in studying and understanding; at that point he or she might become a tutor too and help other students who struggle. I am an international student and since I came to UMD tutoring and mentoring became my favorite occupation. I have been tutoring students in a variety of classes of different categories. My tutoring history starts in my high school. I

Ashli T - Duluth, MN 55812 (46.2 mi) - Algebra Tutor - $41.50/hr.
As an undergraduate student I worked at a general science and math tutor as well as a class specific calculus I tutor. I was teaching assistant for calculus I for two semesters and ran a study table for the athletic department for student with a GPA less than 2.5. As a graduate student I have taught both majors and non-majors biochemistry lab as well as general chemistry lab and discussion. I have had the opportunity to lecture, write quizzes, tests, and homework for college level courses as well as grade all course material. Teaching is a very important part of learning; it is an ongoing process that is active and not static. My style of teaching is less conventional than most at a large university due to my liberal arts undergraduate education. I think that many students learn different ways and it is important to let the learner control the learning process. As an instructor you
