Social Studies Tutoring
Social studies is the "integrated study of the social sciences and humanities to promote civic competence," as defined by the National Council for the Social Studies. Looking for help? Select a tutor today. At the elementary school level, social studies generally focuses first on the local community and family. By middle and high school, the social studies curriculum becomes more discipline-based and content-specific. It includes various fields which involve past and current human behavior and interactions, such as sociology, history, political science, economics, religion, geography, psychology, anthropology, and civics.

Nicholas W - Warrensburg, MO 64093 (24.3 mi) - Social Studies Tutor - $38.50/hr.
I worked as a full-time instructor of physics, astronomy, and engineering/electronics last summer for Upward Bound, a program that provided additional classwork and guidance to selected high-schoolers who came from low-income families that never before sent a kid to college. I also have one and a half years of experience tutoring introductory physics to early college-level students. I have extensive experience teaching and tutoring high school and college students, but I am also willing to work with younger students.
I write fantasy and science-fiction short stories and novels and have strong language skills, so I can proofread papers (in English and Spanish) and help at any point in the writing process. Physical science and math are often the most difficult subjects for students, but I believe anyone can understand the "basic idea." The difficulty comes from attempting to connect the

Garth M - Odessa, MO 64076 (24.4 mi) - Social Studies Tutor - $37.50/hr.
As a graduate of Lindenwood University, I have earned a degree in Information Technology. I have learned extensive grammatical skills due to writing research papers and essays in many various areas of study. I have also instructed military courses for the past year ensuring proper training of America's Airmen. I am currently continuing my education at Webster University working towards a Masters of Arts in Information Technology Management. As the son of two educators, I truly believe that all children can learn, but each has to develop their own learning style. I love teaching and working with children and strive to help them find academic success. All children can meet their potential if they are given the appropriate surroundings and learning experiences. I am a patient and considerate individual who enjoys helping children realize educational success.

Danielle W - Buckner, MO 64016 (32.2 mi) - Social Studies Tutor - $48.50/hr.
The most important thing to remember when teaching a child new concepts is patience. All children learn skills in different ways. Some catch on quickly, others need more time. Even the way in which you demonstrate how a problem is solved can make a difference. I usually try several methods for solving problems rather than insist that they learn the traditional methods only. The little bit of extra time spent giving them the optional techniques could make a world of difference in their educational success. As a parent of two school-aged children I have had the oppurtunity to learn about the newest teaching methods employed by teachers at this time. We often work together on math and science. I am currently working on my teaching certification in middle school science, but have always been had excelent aptitude for mathmatics. I also substitute in the Blue Springs, Grain Valley and Fort Os

Fred E - Lees Summit, MO 64086 (40.3 mi) - Social Studies Tutor - $40.00/hr.
During college, I worked as a Teaching Assistant at Duquesne University for 4 years. There I helped to teach the Pharmaceutics Principles Lab to professional Pharmacy Students. Outside of college, I have recently taught math, science and geography to middle school students. I learn best when I relate the subject to everyday life. Therefore, I enjoy explaining materials in basic terms. I provide links so anyone I teach will remember principles and concepts and to be able to solve problems for themselves.
