Mallory H. - Charleston, IL 61920 (11.7 mi) - Tutor - $35.00/hr.
I have tutored individuals in grades 1-12 in various subject areas. I have been encouraged to pursue English, Writing, and Journalism as professions because of my talent in each area. I have tested at least 4 grade levels above my grade level since I began taking standardized tests. I have the ability to disect subjects in a way that makes learning fun and understandable. I like to get to know each individual and find out how they learn. From there I can figure out what will work for them and what won't.

Michael B - Mattoon, IL 61938 (6.8 mi) - Tutor - $38.00/hr.
Hello and thanks for stopping by today. My name is Michael and I am here to help you succeed. I am currently in law school working my way through.
Before moving to Illinois, I lived on the east coast in upstate New York, where I completed a bachelors' degree in Political Science and Masters degree in International Studies. Just last year, I completed a second Masters degree in Management.
While I am completing law school, I am also a licensed substitute teacher in all grade levels for several school districts throughout Eastern Illinois.
Education is truly a passion of mine. Let me help you achieve your goals. I am a firm believer in the concept of engagement learning. While teaching, I maintain a very lively and interactive classroom. To me, teaching and learning is not about merely lecturing names and dates to students. Teaching and learning is a linear process where the stude

Anita R - Mattoon, IL 61938 (7.1 mi) - Tutor - $40.50/hr.
I obtained Secondary Teacher Certification in Social Sciences. I taught high school and middle school Spanish for two and half years at public schools, and completed my student teaching at an alternative school for juvenile criminals. I was an at home teacher for my school district when children were out for extended periods due to illness. I have completed additional continuing education in working with gifted and special needs children. I enjoy sharing my passion for learning with others and love to see the “light” come on when a student finally understands a concept. I believe making the information relevant to the student is important. I like to use humor and real-life examples to keep students engaged. I believe that it is important to know how the child learns to be able to present the material to them in the best manner for them which is what I would base my style on.

Randy P - Stewardson, IL 62463 (16 mi) - Tutor - $38.00/hr.
As a student at Eastern Illinois University (EIU) I majored in Accounting and minored in Chemistry and Pre-medicine. This path provided me with a well rounded education, which required me to take many courses in Chemistry, Physics, Math, Biological Sciences, Accounting, Tax, etc. As a student at EIU I was a Lord scholar graduating Summa Cum Laude with an accumulated GPA of 3.94/4.00. When I completed my masters degree my family and I moved to the Saint Louis area where I worked as a CPA and taught accounting and individual income tax at Southwestern Illinois College and Saint Louis University. After moving back to the Neoga, Illinois area I began teaching in the Accounting Department at EIU. My greatest joy as a tutor and professor is to witness the "Ah-ha" moment when the light bulb comes on and the student puts the pieces together and comes to understand the topic, and, perhaps more

Carl T - Findlay, IL 62534 (22 mi) - Tutor - $59.00/hr.
I am 36 years of age with three sons of my own. I have a Bachelor of Arts degree from Eastern Illinois University in General Studies with a Minor in Sociology. I have an Associates in Applied Science degree from Lake Land College in Network Administration. I have worked in many supervisory positions as well. Most recently as the Automated Guided Vehicle Systems Coordinator at Caterpillar Inc. in Decatur Illinois. I have written many reports and essays over the last eighteen years. I have served as a before-and-after school tutor/mentor at the Dieterich Elementary School in Dieterich Illinois. As a computer-oriented person, I can teach the efficient use of Microsoft Word in the writing of essays. I believe that all people fall short of their maximum potential. Finding the right motivation for people is a gift that I have. This is, however, no guarantee of success when dealing with the ind

Lisa R - Decatur,, IL 62521 (39.2 mi) - Tutor - $38.00/hr.
I try to understand the level of where the children are and build on that. I am patient, considerate, consistant, non-judgmental and feel it is not too early to start teaching or a child to learn. There is so much children can learn and we, as adults, can learn from them. I found working with young minds in different Early Childhood agencies is one reason for earning my Associate's degree in Early Childhood Education. I then wanted to expand my enjoyment and empower others by obtaining my BSW. I have wanted to be a Social Work ever since high school. Even though, in the last few years I have not worked with the young population, I still enjoy all the things they can teach me.

Kimberly B - Monticello, IL 61856 (40.4 mi) - Tutor - $34.50/hr.
I am a graduate of North Carolina State University with a BA in Sociology. My interest in people and passion for helping others has lead me to many great opportunities. I have worked with the North Carolina Department of Human Resources, and aided/taught/mentored in the developmentally disabled and at-risk populations. I have had the chance to utilize my education and abilities in the Deland-Weldon school system for the past four years. There, I have provided social skills education, aided in the Pre-Kindergarten program, and helped implement reading skills to third and fifth graders via the RTI program. I am also the mother of three children ages 13, 8, and 5. As a mother of three school aged children, I understand how important a little extra help and encouragement can be to academic success. I also know from my experience with many students that each child has his/her own learnin

Adrienne T - Decatur, IL 62521 (40.8 mi) - Tutor - $36.50/hr.
I believe in curtailing the teaching experience specific to the student and understanding how best the student learns, either through visual or auditory stimuli. One of the best attributes a student can learn is critical thinking and to think beyond what is written on the paper. I approach critical thinking by researching
numerous resources from which to learn. This allows the student to reflect on these various sources when studying and preparing, which makes for a well rounded student. I also believe in hands-on and interactive learning as we learn best when doing, which is why I encourage community involvement and exploring the world that is around us and applying classroom learning to these everyday activities. Being very active in higher education, I find myself taking on the roles of educator often. I have a strong background in the natural sciences with a BS in Horticulture

Aidan P - Decatur, IL 62521 (44.2 mi) - Tutor - $39.50/hr.
I believe teaching is my calling. I love sharing my enthusiasm for learning with others. I am a great motivator and my goal is to inspire every child to succeed in order to reach his/her potential. I am patient, knowledgeable, considerate, and understand that every child learns differently. I feel that my creativity allows me to adapt to student needs. I take a constructivist approach to teaching. I believe that students should be active learners and should set their own goals for themselves. The best reward is knowledge and the ability to attain their goals. I think students learn best by practice, as well as from peer interaction. I am certain I can help your child succeed. I have recently completed student teaching and have earned my teaching certificate as an art specialist. I have had the privilege of working with a diverse range of students at different levels with varying a

Sue J - Forsyth, IL 62535 (44.4 mi) - Tutor - $38.50/hr.
I believe that literature and English provide skills for living a fulfilling and productive life. My love of literature has helped me become an accomplished trainer and educator. As a tutor and trainer I believe in bringing passion and patience to the table. I also understand that most people learn in a variety of ways -- seeing, hearing and doing. But, with kids, I know that learning can be accelerated by a teacher or tutor that cares and keeps things fun. As an undergraduate I majored in English and also completed the secondary education program. I completed my student teaching assignment at a local high school in Colorado Springs and taught remedial English to students who had failed the class at least once prior. I then went to graduate school and earned my MA in English and entered the corporate world of education and training. My background is primarily in training adults but m
