Jennifer N - Springfield, OR 65809 (37.4 mi) - Geography Tutor - $49.50/hr.
I am a recent graduate of Drury University. I earned a Bachelor of Arts in Mathematics Cum Laude. I have been tutoring mostly college students for the last 2 years, while in school. I specialize in Algebra, but have the ability to help with any type of math class. In addition to college students, I have also helped elementary students. I enjoy helping those who struggle with math. After working with a diverse group of students, age 10 to 55, I try to develop a unique teaching method with each person. Some people are more visual, others auditory, and some have math anxiety. After pin-pointing the specific struggles, I can better help the student acheive success.

However approaching the material in a way that makes sense to the student is key to allowing the

Rachel L - Eugene, OR 97405-1679 (45.7 mi) - Geography Tutor - $35.50/hr.
Throughout my college experience, I have had multiple chances to volunteer as a classroom aide, tutor, and student teach. As I am certified to teach grades K through 8, I have taken college courses in all subject areas. I have pursued in greater detail language arts, mathematics, and social science in order to earn my middle school endorsements. I have tutored students from elementary grades up through algebra 2. I have begun learning Mandarin, Spanish, and Polish. Also, I have a passion for learning which I hope to impart on my students. I was a classroom aide for a first and third grade classroom, and student taught in a third and fourth grade classroom. I believe in a teaching approach that takes into consideration each child's unique culture. Not only is culturally appropriate teaching beneficial, it's necessary! I plan to implement interactive learning and integrate curriculum. In d

Michael S - Eugene, OR 97405 (45.8 mi) - Geography Tutor - $49.50/hr.
I earned a B.S. in Secondary Education focusing on literacy and written expression, as well as Special Education methodology. This foundation allows me to successfully relate content to students with diverse learning needs, and assess student progress. I have assumed an instructional role in many settings. These include: a student teacher in a 7th grade classroom, a reading tutor at a summer enrichment program for marginalized youth, a camp counselor at an outdoor nature camp, a tutor in a school resource room, and a guest speaker for students visiting my college from Boston. With my past experience with students, and knowledge of language arts and instructional methods, I can surely meet the needs of virtually any student. Teaching is a passion; an ideology focused on each student’s potential. It can be a challenge, but the belief that every student can learn drives me to persistently p

I love teaching and helping children accomplish their goals. I am patient and respectful, as well as empathetic.

Elena C - Eugene, OR 97405 (47 mi) - Geography Tutor - $32.50/hr.
I love teaching and strive every day to become a better teacher, as my career goal is to teach at the university level. I find teaching exciting and difficult. In my discussion sections, I adopt an attitude not of authority over students but of collaboration with students; I try to create and facilitate an environment of collective engagement with a given text or topic. I miss being able to work with students one-on-one, particularly on academic writing, though I do hold weekly office hours and frequently conference with students who are motivated to seek out extra help. I know each of my students every term by name and strive to cultivate meaningful connections with them as people, as learners like myself. I believe that critical thinking is the foundation of academic writing, and I keep this in mind in leading discussions in introductory philosophy courses. As a Graduate Teaching Fello

Sandra M - Springfield, OR 97477 (49.5 mi) - Geography Tutor - $35.50/hr.
I strongly believe that education is a life-long learning experience, that children are able to learn from each other, that a teacher can facilitate the learning process and that students and teachers are able to learn from each other. I endorse the theory that all children can learn, but also recognize that they are unique individuals, who may process learning in different ways. It is, therefore, important to use the teaching method/techniques/strategies that best work with each students. I am an advocate of bringing real life into the classroom and/or taking students on field trips to experience things first-hand. I would embrace individual student differences and build on them, not only using traditional methods, but also those that are creative, innovative and hands-on. I would like to make the classroom a fun place, where students enjoy instruction and accept responsibility for

Kristina H - Springfield, OR 97478 (51.4 mi) - Geography Tutor - $54.00/hr.
I hold a BA in Interdisciplinary Studies, providing me with a well-rounded college education. In addition to that, I am currently seeking a Masters degree in Education. At the end of this program, I will hold a teaching license. I love learning and encouraging others to strive to do their best. I have worked with all age groups (elementary through college age students), mentoring and teaching them along the way. I don’t have a preferred age group to work with, as I believe there are advantages to each age group. I am going to be specialized in the social sciences once I have my teaching license, but I have worked with not only that subject, but math, English, science, and writing. I love working with people and have done my best to always be doing so throughout my life. While in high school, I tutored and mentored other high school students. While in college, I started working wi
