Amelia G. - Nashville, TN 37215 (16.5 mi) - Earth Science Tutor - $45.00/hr.
As a tutor, I find that it is important to present the material to the students in a way that they can relate to. My job as an educator is to teach them how to learn it and make them want to learn it. I personally do not believe that negative reinforcement is beneficial. Positive responses to students are extremely valuable, even if they may occasionally give the wrong answer. This will give them the motivation to do well. My philosophy is that teaching is part knowledge, part communication, and part intuition. My intuition is necessary to understand where a student is getting stuck. I myself already understand the material; the challenge is to understand why a student does not. A variety of communicative teaching approaches is best. I have learned that different students respond to visual, auditory, or tactile methods. As always, continuous practice is extremely important. I also must

Kasongo M. - Nashville, TN 37217 (20.9 mi) - Earth Science Tutor - $35.00/hr.
I loved teaching. Beside my engineering goals, I love to share my knowledges to other people in need. I worked and have experience teaching all mathematics level.I believe that all children deserve education and the only way we can achieve this is by transferring what we have as knowledge to the others. A good teacher is the one who combines his or her knowledge with patience because that is the only we can get to the level of student who have difficulties, understand them and helping to bring them to improve their reasonning skills. I graduated from Tennesse State University with a bachelor degree in electrical engineering and technology. Actually, I working on my masters degree in the same field. I will be graduated in may of 2011.I worked for almost 3 years as math tutor at the ICAN tutorial center at TSU where I helped undergraduated students in calculus 1- 4, also college a

Ashley U. - Murfreesboro, TN 37129 (21.7 mi) - Earth Science Tutor - $30.00/hr.
Hello! I am a recent graduate thrilled to tutor others in the exciting world of biology. I understand that the subject matter can at times be intimidating, therefore I am a very patient tutor who will adapt to student's pace so that learning can take place. I am similarly excited about writing, having assisted many fellow students in college with papers on various subjects, as well as earning all A's and B's in every English course taken in college. I have experience working with school aged children as a former Girl Scout Troop Leader, as well as young adults as a former mentor. If you are looking for an energetic, understanding tutor I look forward to working with you.

Jacklyn P - Franklin, TN 37064 (6.1 mi) - Earth Science Tutor - $31.50/hr.
I enjoy enabling students to discover the abilities within themselves. I excel at being able to get students to find answers to their struggles by asking them the right questions, leading them in the right direction instead of doing the work for them. I have an uncanny ability to see the best in all students, patience, understanding, and flexibilty are virtues in tutoring. Each student is unique and needs an individual style of assistance. A solid educational foundation provides the confidence to reach goals, my desire is to help studetns dream bigger by showing them the true reaches of their potential. At the age of 24 already possessing a bachelor's and master's degree illustrates my efficiency and determination. I have taught English as a second language at the high school level and politcal science at the university level. I am very personable and able to relate to various types and

Katie W - Franklin, TN 37067 (7.3 mi) - Earth Science Tutor - $37.50/hr.
1998 was the my first tutoring experience, I took time from busy school schedule to tutor students in Math and Science at a low income school near my college. After spending time tutoring students in a variety of subjects I decided to go for an education degree once I finished my undergraduate degree. While working towards my Masters degree I spent a semester working in the Seattle Public school as a substitute teachers aid. Once I finished my Masters degree and teaching certification I received a job as an Earth Science teacher. I taught for one year at that school and then moved to the state of Tennessee. For the past two years I have taught Biology, Physical Science, and Ecology. I firmly believe that to be an effective teacher you need to make the subject interesting to the students. While teaching I think it is very important to provide examples as to why the subject matter is neces

Malissa H - Franklin, TN 37067 (8.5 mi) - Earth Science Tutor - $38.50/hr.
I focus on cognitive development (Reading, writing, speech, creativity..) as well as social skills to prepare the child.
I like to tap into the three most efficient instructional methods which are visual, physical and verbal when working with children. I have used a lot of visual resources in my past curriculum which have been very successful! I'm very attentive to children's behavior and body language and keep them in consideration throughout my interactions with them.
I strive to make learning fun ! As a language trainer I am knowledgeable in all-levels of French training and tutoring I've worked professionally for clients of Cartus a global mobility management company.
I've also held a position as a Arts and Crafts director and
held full responsibility for planning, leading and instructing traditional and multi-cultural Arts & Crafts programs for children, ages 5-15.

Keith T - Franklin, TN 37069 (10.6 mi) - Earth Science Tutor - $36.00/hr.
My teaching style varies with student learning styles. Although drill may be appropriate for some skills, my preference is project or problem based methods that draw on the learner's experiences and interests. I work from students' current skill levels, provide challenging problems, model successful learning skills, encourage students' to express creativity and intuition, and employ formative and normative assessments. I firmly believe that more advanced mathemtaics can be taught to younger and more diverse students. I believe that all students, of all skill levels, can learn mathemtaics if creatively taught. I have spent over 30 years in business and financial consulting. My lifelong passion has been for mathematics and education. I have reached a point in my career where I can focus on giving back of my talents to students through mathematics education. I have minimal formal teaching e

Roberto M - Brentwood, TN 37027 (11.1 mi) - Earth Science Tutor - $37.50/hr.
My educational phylosophy is to advance student learning in science and mathematics. As a teacher, I create the environmet that promotes student confidence in the student's abilities and instill a sense of competence and a sense of self-worth. I am a constructivist that follows the Tennessee and national standards. All activities construct conceptual and problem-solving skills.
I believe students learn science and mathematics effectively with relevant, hands-on experience. I design learning experiences that take into account the different learning styles and each student's knowledge base.
I model behavior that demonstrates respect for others and create a climate for a free exchange of ideas. I have twenty-seven years of experience teaching Chemistry at the undergraduate level and four years experience teaching high school. I taught Chemistry, Physics, and Pre-Calculus at a pr

Brent H - Brentwood, TN 37027 (14.1 mi) - Earth Science Tutor - $31.50/hr.
As my experience at college drew to a close, I found that the most rewarding activities I participated in were centered on education. I am a lifelong learner, and I love participating with others in the learning process. I set a relaxed atmosphere that fosters the students drive to ask questions and seek answers. I am comfortable with taking control of a session and speaking throughout (Lecture) or allowing the student to come up with their areas of difficulty and ask questions (Synthesis). I believe that educators frame the future of the young people they contact, and I want to help others as I have been helped in the past. I also would like the opportunity to learn by doing, and see if this field is the one for me. As a college student, I was convinced early that I would become a doctor or scientific researcher. About halfway through my college career, I decided that while science was
