Laura L. - Covington, LA 70433 (15.8 mi) - ACT Tutor - $80.00/hr.
I believe every student can learn. The key is to find your student's strengths and inspire her or his internal motivation. One on one teaching makes a significant difference even in the most reluctant learners. For those who are motivated to earn their best score, I routinely see more than 3 point gains in Reading, Writing/English and Science on the ACT. Because of the family resemblance of standardized tests, you will see not only ACT score increases, but improved English and Math grades as well. While my specialty is Verbal and Science, I have a number of incredible strategies for the math section that can help your student answer 6-12 more questions correctly. I am a certified teacher, currently practicing in Covington, La. I've taught ACT and SAT prep for 7 years, along with the essential skills intervention required to raise scores. My teaching experience includes: 10 years classroo

Mary A. - Mandeville, LA 70448 (17.3 mi) - ACT Tutor - $52.50/hr.
Socratic I've worked as a Learning Specialist for 6 years. I started at Mercy Learning in Mandeville and now have a private practice.
I trained and began contracting to the Mercy Learning Center, Mandeville Campus as a Learning Specialist for nearly three years. While on staff at MLC I gained valuable insight working with children of differing diagnoses and levels of need, their parents, and clinical care providers. Because my background is medical, my evaluation, diagnostic and case management skill set were a terrific asset in clinical case management and I soon learned how to interface with the school system, as well as compile and present documentation to access services for my clients.

Macy L. - Baton Rouge, LA 70820 (37.5 mi) - ACT Tutor - $22.50/hr.
We will begin by determining where your strengths and weaknesses within a particular are. This will be accomplished through the use of a standardized practice test that I will provide. After determining what is necessary, I will work with you on all aspects of the subject. We will spend the majority of the time on those areas that are not as strong as the others; however, we will still spend a significant amount of time on those things which you have already reached proficiency. PERFECT PRACTICE makes PERFECT.
I believe that strong areas should not be ignored, but instead should be periodically reinforced.
Most subjects build upon themselves! I have been a tutor for several years.
While in college, I have tutored several subjects.
Here are my testing scores:
ACT 32 (English 35, Science 31, Math 33, Reading Comprehension 29)
SAT 2100 (Verbal 670, Math 700, Writing 730)

Lillian W - Merairie, LA 70002 (20.2 mi) - ACT Tutor - $39.50/hr.
I think the most useful tutor emphasizes critical thinking. I have noticed that many students focus on memorization instead of really understanding the processes behind science, math, and foreign languages. I try to focus on how and why things are, rather than just the fact that they are. I believe that this approach provides students with a deep understanding of the material and an ability to problem-solve on their own. They can then develop better comprehension, and tend to be more interested in learning. I graduated with my undergraduate degree in marine biology in 2002 and then worked as a research biologist for two and a half years before returning to school to pursue my master’s degree. I believe that my hands-on scientific experiences combined with my academic background allow me to convey difficult concepts to students. As a researcher and as a student, I have had to put together

Camille B - Gonzales, LA 70737 (25.5 mi) - ACT Tutor - $52.50/hr.
My teaching style is friendly and approachable. I find putting a student at ease in the beginning allows them to open up to me in order for us to both find out how he or she learns best, especially since I feel learning styles vary for each individual and often differs for some subjects. For example, I may want to use pictures and art to explore history versus reading and lecture type presentations. I have taught both college and AP High School for college credit in the areas of Humainties, Religious Studies and English composition at three different institutions. Though I do well in large classroom settings, I prefer more personalized instruction settings. I think I would make an excellent tutor in the areas of English Composition and Literature and World History on both the high school and college level, and would likely do quite well to tutor high school French.
