Stacia P. - York, PA 17404 (8.4 mi) - American History Tutor - $27.50/hr.
I worked with a variety of ages from k-12. My most recent experience has been with students in elementary school. I worked for a semester teaching children about sustainable practices and the benefits of buying produce from local farms. While I am most comfortable with high school students, I have great communication skills and can work well with all children. I am willing to tailor my teaching style to the needs of the individual(s). However, I prefer to add an interactive element to all of my lessons.

Garreth K. - Spring Grove, PA 17362 (12.8 mi) - American History Tutor - $25.00/hr.
I was on honor roll in high school on a consistent basis. My best subjects were English and Writing. I attended Pennsylvania State University for Communications with a focus on English Writing and the study of Film and Media Arts. I have a thorough understanding of the English language and a strong knack for comprehension. I believe that I would be able to teach my techniques for not just memorizing subject matter but for comprehending and understanding it. I help my students to ask questions about why something is this way or that way. It is not as simple as just memorizing subject matter in order to regurgitate it for the upcoming test. The purpose of teaching is to help others understand something that is known as true.

Patricia H. - Harrisburg, PA 17112 (19.7 mi) - American History Tutor - $27.50/hr.
I have taught for many years in all levels of secondary school, alternative schools, and tutoring centers.I eat, sleep, and drink tutoring as I tutor every day during the school year and do lots of research to help my kids in whatever academic subject is causing them difficulty.
I began my teaching career for the first five years as a high school English teacher and taught regular college prep English courses.The next five years I taught English at the middle school level.Next, I got married and resigned from teaching when our first child was born. For the next twenty!!years, I raised four children and tutored kids sporadically.
After all the kids had entered school, I began substituting in our school district and substituted everyday in the high schools and middle schools. During some of the summers, I taught secondary English for the district.
In 2009, I left the school distri

Irwin S. - Lebanon, PA 17042 (31.1 mi) - American History Tutor - $25.00/hr.
I taught and tutored ESL two years before entering law school. I hae taught college classes as an adjunct and later FT professor at Penn College for 25 years. I currently serve as Career Outreach Coordinator for HACC-Lebanon Campus. I have tutored many students, particularly in areas such as writing essays. I also served as a reader for the SAT Writing section, so I am familiar with what they are seeking. I am very proficient in grammar and structure. My teaching style with students of all ages is to facilitate their learning as opposed to simply feeding them what I feel is the best response. Students learning is maximized when they can take ownership of and pride in their work. I am very patient. Recognizing that all students learn differently, I seek to ascertain their learning styles and then adjust my tutoring style to that learning style.

Christina S. - Lancaster, PA 17601 (32.8 mi) - American History Tutor - $37.50/hr.
Hello! My name is Christina, and my chief tutoring interest is in English and related areas such as writing, reading comprehension, grammar and literature. As an English major in college, I found myself frequently editing friends' papers at their bequests. I found the process very satisfying, and I enjoyed being able to assist them in learning new concepts and helping them develop their own writing skills. I also developed a deep interest in literacy during my collegiate studies, and I like the idea of helping students improve their skills through tutoring.
In addition to my specialty area in English, I am also very competent at pre-Algebra, Algebra 1 and Algebra 2. I am experienced with test preparation, having taken numerous AP exams, IB exams, the ACT and both the regular SAT and several SAT subject tests. I have excellent study skills and time management skills, which I t

Jeremy D - Dover, PA 17315 (7.1 mi) - American History Tutor - $34.50/hr.
I have always been driven by a desire to help others succeed in subject areas that I love. Shortly after college, I began a volunteer-driven, grant-funded literacy tutoring program in two elementary schools. I have an earned Bachelor's degree in communication arts with a minor in English. I have two full years of teaching experience, and I am currently working on obtaining my PA teacher's certification in secondary language arts. I have experience in tutoring/teaching students from 1st grade through 12th grade in English, reading, and writing. Children learn in different ways. No one teaching style will work for every student. My teaching style revolves around the needs of the student. I love to help determine what methods will work best for each individual. I have an extremely laid-back personality, and my wife will tell you that I am very patient. I do not believe in failure, a

Julie T - York, PA 17404 (7.9 mi) - American History Tutor - $41.50/hr.
I believe subjects need to be looked at in an interesting way and a way that the student can relate to. Everyone learns differently and it just takes finding that one way that each student learns best. I feel that everyone can do well in anything they put their mind to. I am a graduate of York College of Pennsylvania. I obtained a BS in Chemistry and a minor in Math. I have always had a good understand of the sciences and mathematics. I have learned good written skills due to many research papers and laboratory reports. Throughout college I was a laboratory assistant for a physical chemistry lab and helped prepare the chemicals for the organic chemistry labs.

Benjamin W - East Berlin, PA 17316 (8.6 mi) - American History Tutor - $36.00/hr.
I am a demonstrative teacher and leader. I believe in the theory of "model, action, and talk" style of presentation of concepts. My creative background lends itself well to keeping a student's initiative and inspiration to a high level so that they are actually motivated to perform at their best. My personality traits are that I am disciplined and a believer in seeking the truth. My personal goals at this point are to inspire other children to want to learn so that learning and writing are not perceived as boring and meaningless and that through writing, the student will want to continue past the assignment and invoke writing and communication through creative channels into their daily lives so that this becomes a "life-skill." As a recent college graduate of Savannah College of Arts and Design, I have extensive experience with writing skills, leading and directing project based assign

Yvonne B - Mechanicsburg, PA 17050 (10.1 mi) - American History Tutor - $41.50/hr.
Because of my experience in teaching my own children, I have discovered that no child is too young to learn. Often people will not consider an infant or toddler a "functioning human being" until the child can speak. This is so inaccurate! I taught one of my daughters to read at age four. My teaching style is to engage the student on a personal level through cheerful conversation and sharing of interests, then to assess learning styles, strengths, and challenges. Children perform well when expectations are complimentary to them, and when they are given the tools and nurture to accomplish their dreams. I graduated from high school as number eleven in rank out of 248. I often assisted other students in both high school and college. Later, as a homeschooling mother of four, I taught all of my children all subjects through the eighth grade level. I just returned from the island of Saipan, whe

Jacquelyn M - Carlisle, PA 17013 (14.7 mi) - American History Tutor - $40.00/hr.
First, in order for the students to best understand the material, I break it down to their level. For subjects like math, it is simple to develop a step by step method for the students to write down and follow. Once the students have mastered the steps they are motivated to continue with the material because it seems straightforward. It is also important to have the students connect to the material; if they understand how the information is used in every day life then they will become more excited and motivated to learn. Once the students have a firm understanding of the information, they are assigned independent problems. These problems will help the students begin to think on their own and in turn own the material. In college, I tutored grammar school, high school and college students in various math and science courses. Subjects included algebra, calculus, chemistry, and physics
