Matthew B. - Virginia Beach, VA 23462 (33.9 mi) - Testing Skills Tutor - $32.50/hr.
I am a 2011 graduate of the United States Naval Academy with a Bachelors of Science in Political Science. During my education, I was exposed to many subjects, ranging from Electrical Engineering to European Literature. The most important things I learned during my time there were time management and study skills, because without a strong foundation in those subjects, one can not excel in others. I am a very patient person, and I like to help. It may take a session or two, but I'm confident that I can adapt my teaching style to meet your needs.

Lauren P. - Henrico, VA 23229 (47.9 mi) - Testing Skills Tutor - $30.00/hr.
I think learning needs vary from student to student and not all students are going to fit in the mold. I enjoy making the most challenging subjects seem fun.

I also teach in a special education environment. I have experience with working with a variety of students at different levels.

Leslie S - Newport News, VA 23602 (11.3 mi) - Testing Skills Tutor - $39.50/hr.
Teaching is not a job for me, it is what defines me. I have been teaching for over 13 years and still desire to do nothing else. I love my job and find great joy in making a difference in the lives of my students. I have high expectations and believe students can reach their potential given the right support. I believe I also have the skills to teach those students who struggle most. I seem to have the knack for breaking it down for them so they can understand. I presently teach at a K-12 private school for students with learning differences. I have taught students in all grades, K-12. This year, I have been a remediation teacher in reading (decoding), math, and writing. In math, I am comfortable teaching through geometry. I have 10 plus years teaching students with dyslexia and other reading deficits with their decoding and spelling skills. Through programs that implement Orto

Cara W - Newport News, VA 23606 (13.1 mi) - Testing Skills Tutor - $42.50/hr.
In 2007, I graduated from Penn State with a plan of attending graduate school for Creative Writing. I was devastated when I received three rejection letters from schools I admired. Instead of letting that devastation break me down, I accepted a job as an SAT/ACT Preparation Teacher at a learning center. After several weeks of successful, inspiring interactions with high school students in one-on-one sessions, I knew that the circuitous path that led me to this job was truly my destiny: I was meant to be a teacher. From the moment I had that realization on, I took all the steps I needed to become a certified teacher with a Master's in the Art of Teaching. I continue my journey daily as I student teach in the Newport News School District. A year ago, I had the honor of substituting as an Assistant Teacher with an amazing kindergarten teacher. I learned then that she maintains her respect a

Sofoklis H - Suffolk, VA 23435 (22.1 mi) - Testing Skills Tutor - $37.50/hr.
I want to help and make a difference in each student that I tutor. I like to reach out to all of my students. I learn each of my students name and have them see that I want them to well.

Jean G - Portsmouth, VA 23703 (23.4 mi) - Testing Skills Tutor - $39.50/hr.
I enjoy working with children and helping them meet academic goals. As a tutor my job would be to find out how a child learns best. Learning styles can include auditory, visual, and kinesthetic. Children also need engaging,interesting, and varied activities during their learning experiences. Another key point would be to identify strengths and weaknesses and to build a plan based on that information. I feel that all children can succeed. I have been teaching middle school science for the past eight years at a local Middle School. My endorsement is in biology. For the past four years I have been enrolled in a master's degree program in reading at ODU. This May I will graduate from that program. My goal is to teach reading and work with struggling readers. I am also qualified to tutor biology.

Karen H - Norfolk, VA 23505 (25.5 mi) - Testing Skills Tutor - $42.00/hr.
I love teaching and plan to retire as a teacher after thirty years. I feel all students have potential but need someone or something to bring it out. Most of the time, students just need to know that someone believes in them.I teach through verbal, auditory, and kinesthetic modes. Every student learns differently and through different means.I want them to feel a sense of accomplishment when they are finished. My philosophy is much like the old cliche, "Give a man a fish;he eats for a day, but teach a man to fish; he eats forever. If we give students the tools to be successful, they will be successful.Positive influences in the teen years make all the difference in the adult world. I strive to make a difference. I have been teaching for seventeen years. I have taught students of all levels and ages, from the student who excels at everything and does not need to study to the student

Kristen W - Norfolk, VA 23505 (25.6 mi) - Testing Skills Tutor - $38.00/hr.
Visual explanation and simple repetition are the most successful tools to help a child learn. I am patient and calm with students but not afraid of discipline. Before college I was a summer camp counselor for three years and part-time babysitter; jobs that taught me how to work with children. I hope to improve a child's life through improving education. In the past year I have graduated with a double major and passed the Society of Actuaries' Probability exam. My experience in finding effective study techniques and quickly understanding new material allows me to explain subjects to others as directly as possible. I am determined to make the most of each hour of every day.

Merry W - Urbanna, VA 23175 (30.8 mi) - Testing Skills Tutor - $54.50/hr.
Having been devoted to the welfare of children and families and valuing education highly throughout my life, I find tutoring a satisfying occupation. After vounteering my services for many years, I attained formal degrees in education, psychology, and counseling, with very high GPAs. I taught psychology and sociology for several years and have also tutored K-college individually and in groups for many years. Recognizing that each person has his/her own learning style, I emphasize "application" of material learned. I do this primarily by providing examples of information taught and require my students to do the same. My approach to teaching is to create a friendly environment with positive expectations to enhance the learning experience.
