Dolores K - Columbus Junction, IA 52738 (13.2 mi) - English ESOL Tutor - $32.50/hr.
A skilled educator experienced in working with diverse population groups, I'm a Reading Specialist and a classroom educator. Designing curriculum and consulting with homeschooling families have been integral parts of my growth as an educator. Seeking to improve my instructional techniques, I obtained a Master's Degree in Reading and Literacy in 2005.
Although the majority of my students struggle in academic areas, they ultimately regularly score above the national norms on Standardized Assessments, including Iowa Test of Basic Skills and California Achievement Test. I believe that ALL children are capable of learning. It is my responsibility to seek out those methodologies that are most compatible for the children in my care.
My administrators usually placed those students who were struggling in my care. I don't believe in using just one "curriculum" but am adept at combining

Jacquelyn B - Iowa City, IA 52240 (31.1 mi) - English ESOL Tutor - $37.50/hr.
As an ESL, grades 9-12 teacher, I am very familiar with identifying students' individual strengths and areas in need of support. Every one of my students learns differently. I must design curriculum that can be easily differentiated. This makes me an excellent tutor, because this is what it takes to tutor.
As a college student, I tutored many other graduate students that were attaining their degrees in this country and needed to hone their English language skills before returning to their home nations. I enjoy getting to know my students' strengths and areas in need of support, so that I may better facilitate learning in those areas. By learning of their strengths, I have access to their interests, which guide my choice of materials. I believe students are more motivated as learners if information is presented to them in interesting forms.

Jonathan W - Rock Island, IL 61201 (34.8 mi) - English ESOL Tutor - $35.50/hr.
I'm a student at Augustana College whose academic record has ranged from public school to home schooling to community college and and even private education. I've worked as a tutor for over 2 years at Black Hawk College, at the same time obtaining an Associates Degree. Throughout those years I've encountered many special needs students and many bright students, tutoring in subjects ranging from English, Math, Social Studies, to Computer Science. I believe the best way to learn is peer-to-peer learning. As an auto-didact I have the study skills necessary to regurgitate information as taught by the current institutional models. This is an uncreative and highly unnatural way to learn. There's a reason no major discovery was made in a classroom -- true innovation, discovery and learning is an organic process.

During my training at INSE (Institut National des Sciences de l'Education), University of Lome, I had a two-academic year classroom teaching performance inturnship at Agbalepedo Public High school. Then, from September 1998 to February 2005, I taught French and English at ISTT (Institut des Sciences et Techniques du Tertiaire), a private high school in Sokode. I kept an excellent record of teaching performance till 2005 when I moved to the States. I am a student-centered educator and I was known among my students as someone who was more than just an instructor because I took the progress of my students in class as my personal problem and took exceptional measures such as working beyond time
and relentlessly motivating them to overcome their difficulties. I am an educator who helps students make it.
