LeAnn R. - Menlo Park, CA 94025 (8.7 mi) - SAT - Verbal Tutor - $30.00/hr.
I have been in education for 16 years. I specialize in working with students with ADD/ADHD, specific learning disabilities as well as students who underachieve. I have a Master's Degree in Special Education and have successfully worked with students all over the Bay Area to help them realize their full potential. Not all students are successful and the trick is to identify the reasons behind the lack of success. The issues that students have with school are diverse; procrastination, lack of organization, failure to plan, lack of awareness, ineffective habits, learning disabilities, and differences are all possible explanations for school failure. I work with students one on one to help them pinpoint where things break down for them and then work with them to find strategies to help them manage the skills and material they are asked to learn and master. I am there to guide, not just

Inna A. - Belmont, CA 94002 (14.9 mi) - SAT - Verbal Tutor - $40.00/hr.
"A teacher is one who makes himself progressively unnecessary"
I think that this quote about teaching, in a way, reflects my idea on what teaching is all about. One can be a good teacher, whose characteristics encompass good knowledge of the subject matter, understanding the needs of your students, and the ability to apply this knowledge to students' needs. However, an effective teacher does not only pass knowledge on to her students, but makes herself gradually unnecessary: her learners become independent learners as they progress through a course. As a teacher, I always try to be effective in this sense - I foster independence in my students. At the same time, I strive for excellence which will eventually make me a better teacher. This endeavor caused me to reflect on how an excellent teacher is different from a good teacher. The conclusion I have come to is that a gap between a g

Amy M. - Oakland, CA 94605 (25.2 mi) - SAT - Verbal Tutor - $90.00/hr.
Let's work together to increase your chances! I assess the student's level of mastery by listening to parents, communicating with the student (in whatever appropriate way needed) and then doing some basic testing. Once the student is assessed, I design a learning environment and activities that coincide with the student's specific strengths, while adding some elements of challenge. I tend to work in a very focused way for 10-15 minutes, and then add in tactile activities (like Bannana Grams for example) for 10 minutes or so, in order to maintain the student's attention. Children and youth who are struggling to read and write get patient assistance to learn the words correctly. My work will improve writing techniques (including essays and basic writing skills), reading comprehension, vocabulary development, and literary creativity. For younger children I work with acquiring reading skill

Leah B - Sunnyvale, CA 94087 (0.9 mi) - SAT - Verbal Tutor - $46.00/hr.
I was featured in an article in the San Jose Mercury News because of the hands-on approach I take to addressing my students' learning needs. I customize my teaching materials to each individual and use a wide variety of techniques to address different learning styles. I keep instruction varied and lively, using visual aids, music and interactive activities to involved students in the learning process. When students master skills and knowledge, it empowers them and opens their horizons to new challenges. That is what I love most about teaching. I have tutored a wide variety of students for 14 years, ranging from high-level executives and business professionals to students from the elementary to community college level. The reason my students have nominated me for a teaching award is because of the fun, inspiring learning environment I create to build each individual's confidence with le

Ali A - Santa Clara, CA 95050 (4.1 mi) - SAT - Verbal Tutor - $59.00/hr.
Every person is unique and the style of instruction to be given to each student must be adequate to the level the student can sustain. I believe all students, children to adult level, are intelligent and will learn the material if the teacher is willing to put in the effort and express a teaching style in which is easy to be understood. With repetition, patience, and willingness to achieve success, a student and a teacher will achieve success. My goal is to stand by the side of every student who is willing to gain knowledge and succeed. As a graduate of the University of California, Merced with a BS in Biological Sciences, emphasis track in Microbiology & Immunology, I mastered the knowledge of how the human systems interact amongst each other at a cellular and organs level in addition to the structure of the body’s fighting mechanisms to defend itself against foreign pathogens.

David L - Santa Clara, CA 95054 (4.4 mi) - SAT - Verbal Tutor - $49.00/hr.
I know of few things that compare to the moment a concept or idea clicks in a student's head. Regardless if it registers with a knowing nod or is the result of a difficult grinding process, the feeling for me is the same. I firmly believe that no two children think in exactly the same way, and so often no two children learn in exactly the same way. Differences in persepective, experience, environment, etc. mean paths to discovery may differ for each child. My job as an educator is to find that path through patience, compassion and creativity, all while creating an enjoyable learning environment. Since high school I have always been in a postion as a mentor and tutor. One of my first experiences was as a camp counselor for inner-city youth. Since then my affinity for teaching has grown while serving as a Bible study teacher and private tutor, to the position I now have as Assistant Direct
