Claudia F - Bellingham, WA 98225 (16.4 mi) - Composition Tutor - $44.50/hr.
I worked for six years at William King Museum, where I developed and taught art curriculum to students Pre-K through 12 and trained instructive staff in our 12 programs. I served as a traveling classroom instructor in our 14 district service area where my presentations consisted of one-half hour of historical/cultural content and one hour of hands-on art. I utilized my knowledge of literature to enhance various art projects. I have worked with young children on their reading skills and in understanding themes in literature. I am competent in grammar and composition. As you may gather from my first undergraduate degree in English literature, I enjoy the written word and am familiar with both American and English literature. Each of us has his or her own learning style. I prefer to parallel the student's own interests with the topic taught in order to best engage their enthusiasm and enhan

Benjamin K - Bellingham, WA 98229 (16.7 mi) - Composition Tutor - $46.50/hr.
I tutored four different children (1st-5th grade) over the course of four years for the Teton Literacy Program, a non-profit group located in Jackson, Wyoming. I met with each child after school at the facility or the local public library for hour-long sessions, working on grammar, pronunciation, and writing, focusing on each students' strengths and weaknesses and helping them catch up to their appropriate grade level as well as building their confidence. In addition, I worked on the I-CAN book project, through the Literacy Program, coaching a second grade class with the creation and assimilation of a story book. I enjoy helping children master elementary skills that are the building blocks to their reading comprehension and finding ways to encourage them to read more books and to realize the significance of expressing themselves through writing. I enjoy finding the best way that each st

Kelli B - Burlington, WA 98233 (17.1 mi) - Composition Tutor - $41.00/hr.
While an undergraduate student at a top university, I pushed myself academically. I also focused on trying to help people by teaching resume writing and job interviewing workshops at my university’s Career Development office. Helping fellow students further their careers was very satisfying and inspiring. Upon graduation, I counseled, trained, and equipped American and foreign college-level and graduate students for a non-profit. Later, in graduate school, I worked in Student Affairs, holding workshops, hosting social events, resourcing students and managing print projects. I was also a TA in my two MA programs; I led tutorials, graded coursework, lectured, and conducted research. Teaching others continues to be my life’s passion. I enjoy taking what I know about a subject, weighing what my student's learning style is and then tailoring a lesson so that student best understands the

John P - Bellingham, WA 98226 (19.4 mi) - Composition Tutor - $46.50/hr.
As the son of a teacher, education has always been an important part of my life. For the past 25 years I have had the pleasure of working with youth in many different capacities. I have coached, mentored, tutored and taught all ages. After receiving my teaching certificate in 1998, I spent a few years working as a substitute teacher teaching in all subject areas for all grades. In 2001 I began teaching Physical Education and working as a tutor for students who were temporarily removed from their school for various reasons. Working with youth is a great passion of mine. I want every child to be successful. I strive to help students reach their short or long term goals by being a positive role model, and supporting their efforts to achieve their goals. I am friendly, honest, and very caring. I understand that all children learn in their own unique way; therefore, my approach to each chil

Dolores M - Lynden, WA 98264 (29.2 mi) - Composition Tutor - $47.00/hr.
I have taught school for over thirty years, including several years as working in a Random House Reading Lab while working as a Teacher's Aide. I am a published author,have worked a few years as a highest-paid stringer for the Kodiak Mirror as their religious writer, and have taught students from kindergarten through ninth grade. Also I have substituted in high school. I can teach all subjects in primary grades, and Language Arts in higher grades. I have been described as a shotgun teacher, tossing information both above and below level to each student, so that those overachievers may always be challenged, and those who are struggling may without embarrassment pick up missed information. I am considered quite capable in the area of discovering basic learning blocks that have been missed. I use games and fun activities whenever possible, since the human mind retains best that which it

Rachel S - Marysville, WA 98271 (30.3 mi) - Composition Tutor - $43.50/hr.
I write with great enthusiasm to apply for the position of Tutor. I recently graduated from Gettysburg College Magna Cum Laude earning my Bachelor of Arts Degree in Psychology and Neuroscience. I have previous experience working as a Clinician/Tutor for Lindamood-Bell Learning Processes, providing one-on-one instruction to students and implemented programs that provided effective treatment for dyslexia, hyperlexia, autism, and other learning disabilities. Further, I have years of experience volunteering as a tutor, instructing students of all ages (including high school) in various subjects. I have found that tutoring sessions are most effective when they are fun! Many students find it difficult to stay focused, especially after a full school day. For this reason, I prefer to change tasks frequently and use a variety of fun games to switch up the pace of the session. Learning can be f

Renee R - Everett, WA 98203 (41.6 mi) - Composition Tutor - $43.00/hr.
Although I do not have paid experience teaching regular school subjects, I have extensive experience teaching skill to all age level learners in a gym/pool setting. I taught swim lessons and exercise classes for nearly 20 years, and taught weight lifting techniques/sports conditioning for 2 years. i am also active in teaching at church and work with my own children as well as their friends in completing school projects. My teaching style starts with breaking the skill into managable segments for the learner. This can vary from person to person. I also like to find areas of interest to use as examples and comparisons when teaching so that the lesson will always seem relevant to my student(s). I believe that learning new skills and perfecting existing ones is vital to enjoying life and try to put this enthusiasm into everything I teach.

Tammy B - Lake Stevens, IL 98258 (42.7 mi) - Composition Tutor - $40.00/hr.
Providing educational support services is a continual, developmental process. Just as employees and students change, so should the support services that are available. Services should be flexible and diverse while at the same time maintaining the highest level of quality.
Strong educational supports will promote critical thinking and skill development in its students. It will offer variety, through complex learning environments and barrier-free opportunities. Additionally effective support services will address the whole student, from a personal perspective, offering assistance with non-academic issues that will allow the student to perform and achieve at his/her greatest capacity.
Creativity, consistency and collaborative efforts from a support service arena will enhance the likelihood for success at all levels. Through innovative and continually evaluated services, a diverse

Donna T - Everett, WA 98208 (44 mi) - Composition Tutor - $45.00/hr.
My experience of teaching the families from Brazil was very enjoyable. One high school student said that she learned more at our once a week class than she learned at her daily class in school. I liked incorporating songs and singing to reinforce grammar, which made class time fun. I emphasize conversational ESL and grammar practice. Teaching lessons involving practical life applications I believe is important to non-native English speakers. After receiving my degree at Northwest College in Kirkland (now University), I worked, enhanced my music skills, married and had children. From 1995-1996 I obtained my TESL certificate at Edmonds Community College. I tutored two middle school students from Korea for one year. Then I taught 9th grade English to 15 international students at Snohomish County Christian School for one year. I have also had the pleasure of voluntarily teaching 14 s

Luis C - Monroe, WA 98272 (53.1 mi) - Composition Tutor - $44.50/hr.
I have tutored in Colombia as an English tutor.
I have spent several years volunteering as a tutor at various high schools, middle schools, and have worked professionally as a tutor at Seattle University.
I am a native Spanish speaker.
I taught marriage education classes in Spanish for 2.5 years. I believe that teaching is guided by the student. When the student shows that something is working we keep using it, if they don't like something we try something new. Everyone is different. Some people need more hands on, others need more example, and some people want the material to be life relevant so we do more conversation and real life stuff. In all cases it's best to use all methods to make learning whole, real, and to make it stick.
