Melissa E - Bakersfield, CA 93311 (9.6 mi) - Drawing Tutor - $43.00/hr.
As someone who has loved reading and books since a young age, I knew exactly what I wanted to do with my life: A career as a writer and a reading teacher. I obtained an AA Degree in Journalism (writing) and a BA Degree in Communications (reading/writing) with emphasis in PR and Journalism. I currently work as the Librarian of an elementary-school library part-time in the mornings/early afternoons. I tutor some of the children with reading issues, as well as tutor a young boy from my neighborhood in reading on the weekends. I would love to tutor reading and English to those who need assistance. I have eight years' experience running programs for youth. I have years of experience working with children. I love to focus one-on-one or in small groups and believe in working in a friendly, non-intimidating style with the children. I am patient and understanding while trying to look at the obsta

Erin L - Bakersfield, CA 93312 (11.3 mi) - Drawing Tutor - $51.50/hr.
I am passionate about helping people. Teaching has enabled me to fuel that passion into an English classroom setting. I enjoy being around students and helping them solve their academic problems. With a degree in Psychology and experience in helping youth, I strive to understand the process behind the problem. Vocabulary, grammar, writing and reading are all working together to create comprehension of various skills and needed practices. It is my desire to simplify the subject of English and motivate the student to succeed. My BA in English has given me the foundation to invite students to put aside their fears or concerns regarding the subject of English and to look at it from a different perspective. Beyond the subject matter and what I will be teaching, I have to spend some time getting to know the child. If I do not take the time to make them feel important and show that they

I always let them know that if they applied themselves they could achieve anything. I don't think there is a better feeling then to see a student be proud they were able master something they thought impossible.

Angela T - Bakersfield, CA 93309 (13.4 mi) - Drawing Tutor - $48.50/hr.
Over the course of my career, I have taught a wide variety of courses for age groups K-12 which include: English, math, history, geography and English as a second language. I am quite comfortable with classes of different sizes, at different levels, and with various teaching styles. I incorporate the tactile, visual and auditory teaching methods. I have also taught adults to read in the adult literacy programs at many libraries.
Some believe classes should be teacher-centered, where the teacher is expert and authority in presenting information. Others take a learner-centered approach, viewing their role as more of a facilitor of student learning. I do both. I have taught at Porterville, Tulare and Palmdale libraries. I hold a full time designated subjects Career Technical Education Teaching Credential. Teaching is my passion. I am patient, kind and punctual. My specialty is teachin

Sandra R - Bakersfield, CA 93308 (14.2 mi) - Drawing Tutor - $46.00/hr.
After graduating from Vanguard University of Southern California with my BA in English, I decided to enroll in the Education Program to receive my Single Subject English Teaching Credential. Teaching has always been a passion of mine. I started tutoring students in subjects such as Math, English, Science, History, and Spanish, when I was merely a Junior in High School. I began tutoring K-8 at a local private elementary school. I then became employed at my high school as a tutor. At my high school, I was given the opportunity to work with grades 9-12. I worked in an after school program for three years where I was able to plan lessons and help students with their homework. I have recently student taught at Costa Mesa High School as a 9th Grade Honors English teacher and a 12th Grade Regular English teacher. I started teaching Sunday School when I was in Junior High.

Latashia B - Bakersfield, CA 93307 (16 mi) - Drawing Tutor - $44.00/hr.
Because of my work with persons who have physical and mental problems, I have learned to be patient and sharpen my listening skills. This way I am also able to recognize when someone is frustrated or exhausted and use these signs to better cope with any behavioral problems that may arise. I always utilize positive language and seek to understand an issue a student may have to help promote a comfortable learning environment. I find that many students respond well to a good listener and someone that takes time to give them individualized attention. I have a BA in Anthropology which means that I have experience working with diverse groups of people and have a certain understanding and appreciation of the differences among individuals. I have many years of experience tutoring adults and K-12 students. Some of my students have included those with mental disorders and physical handicaps. I hav

Patricia H - Bakersfield, CA 93306 (18.8 mi) - Drawing Tutor - $46.00/hr.
My desire to teach stems from my hopeful view of youth. During the past seven years I have been successful in promoting access to higher education to youth of diverse backgrounds by organizing educational workshops and/or working directly on school campuses. I have earned a B.A. in Communications with an emphasis in advertising and a minor in Chicano Studies, which has enabled me to gain skills in public speaking, creative writing and art. Also, I have great knowledge regarding sociology, political science and history. As an undergrad, I excelled in the arts, history and social science courses. However, I lacked interest in math (I didn't get it) and failed college algebra two times! My goal was to graduate college and I decided to seek help. I came across the tutoring center on campus and found a tutor that changed my perception about math! In brief, my tutor was out going, patient and

Belinda A - Frazier Park, CA 93222 (20.9 mi) - Drawing Tutor - $41.00/hr.
My goal as a teacher is to ensure that my students hone in on their individual skills and talents. In doing this, I create an atmosphere that is most conducive to learning. This is done through proper assessment and by challenging students at different levels with supplemental assignments and texts. Likewise, I typically design my classroom so that anyone walking into my room would have an enjoyable learning experience simply by viewing the walls. Sometimes, I have been called unconventional, but I think that within a changing society, it is very important to be able to teach "outside the box." As I graduated number seven in my class, I was always a go-getter and an overachiever, especially within my field of study. Over the past 15 years, I have managed to earn a BA in Speech, an MA in Communications and over 10 years collective teaching experience at the high school, undergraduate, an

Erin S - McFarland, CA 93250 (26.9 mi) - Drawing Tutor - $46.00/hr.
I hold a Bachelor's Degree in Chemisty with a minor in statistics. As an undergraduate, I tutored middle-schoolers in science and math as a volunteer at a local school. I was recently a substitute teacher, teaching all ages and in areas such as the biological sciences, algebra, calculus and psychology. I currently tutor a college student in mathemtics. I first discovered my love for teaching in high school. I excelled in many areas and helped my fellow students learn. As I furthered my education, my passion for teaching grew and my style changed. I have molded my favorite, and most effective, professor's techniques into my own hybrid. I use humor and compassion to develop the student's understanding. I try to teach to the student and not at them. I teach study habits that will help them learn more effectively on their own.

Joan K - Delano, CA 93215 (33.3 mi) - Drawing Tutor - $47.00/hr.
I believe education is the most valuable gift we can pass on to our most valuable resources, which is the youth. I would like to be a factor in providing the best quality of education for our youth by using evaluation skills to determine what type of learner each student is. I am a strong believer in visual aid and learning through visual demonstration and providing clear, detailed examples. I also like to create an environment to practice positive reenforcement which will give students positive motivation to learn and increase the passion for learning. Also, by being a mentor to students who may be having difficulties, I believe communication between a student and a tutor will be greatly improved and thus providing clearer understanding. As a design student, and throughout my life, I have held the ability to grasp new concepts in multiple subjects with very little difficulty. I have use

Signe W - Santa-Barbara, CA 93121 (50.7 mi) - Drawing Tutor - $40.50/hr.
I have enjoyed a unique educational background, having been required to study all academic disciplines as an undergraduate. The benefits of this unique approach to education later inspired me to earn a Master's degree in the development of consciousness, which is the basis for the learning process. My studies have also included intensive foreign language courses at UCSC, the Goethe Institute, and M.U.M..
My career in the field of teaching has ranged from homeschooling and private lessons to ESL and university courses. Most importantly, I love to teach and have enjoyed this vocation for many years. It is always a thrill for me to work with a student and to help them achieve their goals. Each student is unique. The way in which they assimilate knowledge may also be unique. It is the skill of the teacher then to know what is the best approach to take with each student to help them d

Christie T - Solvang, CA 93463 (53.2 mi) - Drawing Tutor - $43.00/hr.
I have a passion for learning, and a love of all types of diversity. I thrive in one-on-one and small group scenarios where I can identify the learning styles and strengths of each child, and cater to their individuality. When I taught swimming one summer at the YMCA, I quickly became the favored instructor for kids aged 3-8, especially those in the extremes: fearful and fearless. The fearful children needed to be coaxed into confidence so that they could feel safe and proud to succeed at their own pace, while the fearless children needed firm but loving boundaries to ground them in safety and discipline so that they could be freed up to push themselves to their full potential. For more than 20 years I have been an educator and advocate for children and families in multiple settings. I have eight years of volunteer and paid classroom experience with K-12, teaching and tutoring in all cur
