Phil B. - Memphis, TN 38103 (34.9 mi) - Government Tutor - $17.50/hr.
I prefer to let the student explain what they understand and then identify what they are struggling with in order to avoid wasting time covering issues that they are proficient in to ensure that the student gets the most out of the time. I have completed over 22 years of school, including 3 degrees. Along the way, I have been required to take multiple standardized tests in order to achieve admission into both the schools and my profession and have perfected the skills of preparing for and taking standardized tests. I have worked with friends in helping them identify their strengths and the focus of the exam in order to formulate a study plan to make the most efficient use of study time. My various degrees and hobies center around the social sciences, U.S. History, and Government. I also have assisted other students in preparing for tests.

Daniel W. - Memphis, TN 38107 (37.8 mi) - Government Tutor - $40.00/hr.
I have been tutoring professional for six years and teaching for five. I am certified by the state of Tennessee to teach secondary math. I have worked with all levels of students, from remedial to gifted. I have worked from age 7 through adult learners and had a positive impact at each age and level. I spend much of time making the student understand that it is okay to feel behind in a subject and that the student should believe in himself. This belief is built on continued practice on fundamentals that I watch them go through but only ask questions when I see them going astray. Everyone needs to learn the material for his or herself. My place is to make sure they learn the right methods to solve the problem and ensure that they know those methods beyond the tutoring session.

Swati M - Jonesboro, AR 72404 (29.1 mi) - Government Tutor - $49.00/hr.
I have a positive and patient way of getting through to students. Science was my favorite subject matter in college and I like to break down difficult information into terms that are easier to understand and follow. For example, I like to break down scientific terms by their roots. In doing so, my students not only remember what the terms mean for that class but can also apply that knowledge in future class work.
I also believe in using reinforcement techniques such as repetition, writing, and regular revision/quizzing of the subject matter so that this not only keeps the information fresh but also make it easier to build on that information further. As I graduated with an honors bachelor’s degree in Biology, I started working at my university as an academic tutor. Based on the performance of my students, I was further promoted to the “Lead Science Tutor” position where I could sh

Clifford G - Jonesboro, AR 72401 (30.4 mi) - Government Tutor - $52.50/hr.
As a graduate of Arkansas State University with a degree in history, I achieved an excellent rapport with the faculty and the administration in the pursuit of my degree. I have been previously awarded an ROTC scholarship for leadership and academic potential, as well as a scholarship from the Dean's discretionary budget to supplement my academic progress. I have tutored students in History, philosophy, geography, and essay composition. I am currently on track to earn a certified teaching credential and I am looking forward to positive experiences. My teaching style involves the student not only in the curriculum but also in the world around them. I enjoy helping students to relate what they have learned to outside the classroom. For example when teaching about a significant event in history, I challenge the student to think about how they would have thought about it in the past and how

Kurt S - Memphis, TN 38104 (37.6 mi) - Government Tutor - $35.50/hr.
I enjoy helping students reach their full potential & feeling a sense of accomplishment. I received a Liberal Arts education because my parents thought as did my teachers, professors, & I that a Liberal Arts education teaches creativity, flexibility, sound, logical reasoning, & good judgment. It is these ideas which I want to impart to my students. My philosophy of education includes utilizing the student's background in order to help the student discover & create meaning so that he or she can learn & better understand the material they must learn in order to become successful. I love to read; I always carry a book with me, & I share this love with my students. Every successful person in life that I know of reads; reads well, & reads often.

Ami O - Memphis, TN 38104 (38.9 mi) - Government Tutor - $32.50/hr.
All my life I have loved to learn. I thrive on academics, and I remember my college and high school days with fondness. It makes me sad to see students struggle, their frustration pushing out any passion for what they are learning. As a tutor, I try to instill my own passion inside of them. Learning is exciting, and sometimes a change in perspective is all that is needed to bring understanding. I work with the student to find the best, most effective, approach to a subject. I am patient, friendly, and I'm very good at what I do. There is nothing so rewarding as to see the light of understanding come into the eyes of my students. Growing up, I was always very gited academically. I never struggled with school, and learning was an easy pleasure. I graduated as valedictorian, and when I got to college I started tutoring to help others that had more difficulty in class. I didn't beg
