Sarah F. - Lincoln, NE 68508 (22 mi) - Literature Tutor - $25.00/hr.
I prefer to let my tutoring sessions to be student led. What that means is that rather than treating the sessions like a teacher-student interaction, I let the student take responsibility for the work they want to improve. I have found that students who take control of their own education as opposed to being told to do so perform much better. Currently completing a double major (english/psychology) at the University level. I graduated in the top 10% of my high school class with Honors/AP credit. I have been a strong student all through out my educational career with a passion for learning and teaching others. I have previous experience tutoring in both English, ESL, and Math, working with students K-12 and some college level.

Laura O. - Lincoln, NE 68510 (22.3 mi) - Literature Tutor - $30.00/hr.
By sparking curiosity, asking questions, allowing time to think and investigate for answers, and pointing out clues that will hopefully lead the students to discovering answers, I hope to mentor my students like a creative safari tour guide. The desire to learn and think critically must be instilled in all learning environments. These things are imperative because they are skills needed for life. I want to be a life-long learner; and I want my students to be as well. I have my Nebraska Initial Teaching Certificate for 7-12 Language Arts. Within my Bachelor of Science in Education and Human Sciences, I earned my K-12 provisional English as a Second Language endorsement as well as my 7-12 Language Arts endorsement. Starting my college career as an elementary education major and ending it a secondary education major, I have had education related to and experience with teaching students g

Bradley C. - Bellevue, NE 68123 (33.1 mi) - Literature Tutor - $45.00/hr.
I have experience working with students who are advanced and seeking supplementary tutoring as well as with students who are having difficulty with a subject. I have tutored mathematics as well as chemistry, biology, physics, and other subjects. I have tutored students from a range of ages and I worked with my first student over four years ago while I was in college. I try to work with students to find connections between different aspects of the material that we're working on as well as to find connections to other subjects. I find that by relating specific topics to broader perspectives on a subject as well as related subjects, the student can gain a greater appreciation for the coherence and importance of a particular subject area.

Baligh B - Lincoln, NE 68503 (21.8 mi) - Literature Tutor - $52.50/hr.
Before my selection in the Fulbright Program to come to teach Arabic here at UNL, I was teaching French and English for high school students until I got my Bachelor's degree in 2008. With the Fulbright program, I went through various workshops on teaching skills. I learned crucial teaching techniques that have been impacting my career as well as my students'. I am currently a Teaching Assistant at UNL working at the Department of Classics & Religious Studies and pursuing my Masters' Degree at the History department. I still recall the early days when I was wrestling with foreign languages. Our French teacher had a positive impact on my teaching skills in that each time she made me feel that I need to put myself in the student's place to get the message across. Trying to come up with different examples to convey the same message. Most importantly, learning a foreign language needs patienc

Dianne L - Lincoln, NE 68510 (22.5 mi) - Literature Tutor - $34.50/hr.
As a tutor meeting a student for the first time, I feel it is best to create a common bond with a friendly approach, getting to know the tutee’s specific interests. However, establishing respect and understanding is also important to the balance and maintenance of that relationship. My philosophy is that making learning fun, yet challenging is the key to success and the bridge to self-confidence. With this, I am able to provide students with a welcoming environment, bringing both humor and depth to the session while inspiring creativity and critical thinking. I am a patient mentor, dedicated to the individual success of each student and hope to continue these traditions, contributing my skills to your child’s development. For the past seven years I have been tutoring all levels of English and ESL both privately and at Fullerton College in California, where I received my CRLA Master Tutor

Janet J - Lincoln, NE 68508 (22.7 mi) - Literature Tutor - $35.50/hr.
I am an old school educator; my students learn the whys behind the hows. I absolutely love knowledge and plan to continue my education for as long as I can. I am currently working on a PhD in Fiction Writing at UNL, but I nearly have a BA in History, and would like to turn that into a Masters as soon as I can. I've been teaching English Composition, Literature and Creative Writing since 1998, and my students are winning awards left and right. I'm well read and aware of haptic, audio and visual learning styles as well as being adept in discovering possible learning disabilities. I try to employ "active learning" with call and response lecturing. I also encourage students to identify how they learn, by noting their own strengths such as linear or circular thinking. I also help them identify how they learn the best and encourage research, research, research as well as using games and multip

Katrina L - Omaha, NE 68154 (26.1 mi) - Literature Tutor - $31.00/hr.
With my experience in many classrooms, I am a firm believer that all children can learn. However, each child has different needs, and they will learn in different ways. As a teacher, I try to provide instruction in a variety of ways to accommodate to a variety of learners. Many struggling students will succeed if material is taught in a different form. Hands-on and discovery learning are both excellent ways of adapting for students. I believe the best way to teach a child is to get to know them and their interests, and provide instruction in a way that fits their needs. I knew from a young age I wanted to be an educator, and I have taken every opportunity to help students. In high school, I volunteered in 8th grade and 1st grade classrooms. I also taught religious education for 3 years. Throughout my college years, I worked in a variety of classrooms. I spent a majority of my practicum h
