Rino B - Sonora, CA 95370 (27.5 mi) - Geography Tutor - $38.50/hr.
As an Application Engineer for a research company, it was my resposaability to train, instruct and give seminars on the material currently in vogue in Semiconductor, Biology, Physics, and Geology in materials to be analyzed. These seminars were meant to instruct and inform researchers of the techniques available. Most seminars were at colleges and universities in the U.S. and overseas. I began to wind down my travels and explored the potential of teaching locally. For the past three years I have been a substitute teacher in Tuolumne County district as well as 4 seminars every year. I had no intention of teaching when I started my career in Psychology and the Analytical Chemistry industry. I continuously tried to improve my methadology to arrive at the right mix of stimulation and information to make the learning process as interesting as possible.

Efleda B - Sutter Creek, CA 95685 (30.4 mi) - Geography Tutor - $48.50/hr.
Because each student, young or old, responds to different learning stimuli (graphical or verbal) at diffrent rates, I always try to get to know my student first. I then try to tailor my tutoring to how they respond best and retain what they've learned.
I believe in repetition and using examples that a student can relate to, and then testing the student's understanding of the subject matter. As the oldest of five children, my 15+ years of tutoring experience includes helping my siblings in their homework when we were growing up. I have also taught English for two years at a private Junior/Senior girls' high school in Kyoto, Japan; mentored the English Speaking Society for the high school students; and, more recently, trained three content editors at Intel, as well as developed training classes for HP.

Kristie S - Valley Springs, CA 95252 (35.5 mi) - Geography Tutor - $60.50/hr.
Since 1996, I have been a successful elementary school teacher servicing students in grades K-8. Along with being a classroom teacher, I have obtained my Administrative Credential and Masters in Education with an emphasis on best practices. I have the background to assess students and develop individualized goals to meet their needs. Most children have had positive and negative experiences at school. I believe regardless of a child's past experiences, I have the ability to develop meaningful relationships and help students believe in themselves and see their strengths. I do this in a caring manner, but always hold children to their personal best. Throughout the years I have influenced hundreds of children and have often been referred to as their "favorite teacher."

Elizabeth R - Gardnerville, NV 89410 (39.4 mi) - Geography Tutor - $37.00/hr.
I love teaching and believe it is my calling in life. I do believe all children can learn, but in different ways.I look forward to teaching your child in a customized manner, which best meets their needs and learning style. My goal is to help all children reach their full potential, whatever that may be. I use a variety of techniques to help children reach their goals and keep myself updated on new theories yet I also feel comfortable using many tried and true techniques as well. I have taught preschool,elementary and adult students for the past 8 years. As a preschool teacher, I developed my own curriculum and taught 3 year olds.

Elizabeth J - Minden, NV 89423 (39.8 mi) - Geography Tutor - $37.50/hr.
I believe in the Democratic approach to Educating the young.
I start the year by asking the students what they would like to learn that year and we record this on a large sheet of paper.
Students feel happy to know their wishes are so considered and
then at the end of the year we review the list and they see that
they have covered everything they wanted to learn and much more.
I am seriously concerned with the self-esteem of each children and work to elevate this so that the children will be able to
grow and achieve the most that they can while in my class. I love children and I love teaching. My initial experience was as a 2nd grade teacher in the Milwaukee
Public Schools.(6years) I then moved to Ohio where I taught
for 4 years as a Learning and Behavior Disordered teacher.
I attended Kent State University and procured a Masters in
Counseling for the Elementary Children. I t

Elizabeth J - Minden, NV 89423 (39.8 mi) - Geography Tutor - $38.50/hr.
I have been an elementary teacher for over 21 years in Wisconsin,
Ohio, Arizona, and recently in Reno, Nevada. I hold a Masters Degree in Counseling from Kent State and acquired this in order
to better serve the children in my classroom with their
needs.
I have taught all the subjects successfully and have also taught
Music, Art, Dance, and Drama to the children in my classes.
I have also worked as teacher to Learning Disabled children for
four years. I believe that our children hold the future of our world in their
hands and hearts and for this reason I have a deep desire to
assist them in learning all of their subjects as well as they
can.
My approach is democratic in that I ask the child for his/her
input on what they like to study and learn too. Finding out
a childs loves is important for a teacher. An example is:
Going to the library to find books for students

Brandy L - Oakdale, CA 95361 (48.2 mi) - Geography Tutor - $42.00/hr.
At the University of California-Berkeley, I have pursued my academic interests and personal convictions through a variety of study, work and volunteer experiences.

Christine H - Cool, CA 95614 (49.8 mi) - Geography Tutor - $42.50/hr.
I have taught ESL for 17 years to children and adults from all over the world. I have a strong command of language arts and am experienced at teaching literacy, grammar, vocabulary, spelling, essay writing, phonics, pronunciation, etc. I coordinate the after school enrichment program and annual play at Earl LeGette Elementary School. Having finished a financial planning course, I have also recently brushed up on my math skills. I have a well-rounded education and am constantly learning as I tutor my own children with their homework. My teaching style involves fun and an active student. Self-discovery is the best way to learn and retain knowledge. I see myself as the facilitator; I give my students the tools, so they can figure out problems on their own and become more self-reliant. I want learning to be fun, involving games, healthy competition and active learning, so students bec

Jill B - Riverbank, CA 95367 (53.4 mi) - Geography Tutor - $44.50/hr.
I believe that students can reach their potential if they are given the tools that they need. My job is to be the toolbox for them. As a special education teacher, I adapt my teaching style to meet the needs of the students. I believe that a child should be given a vast amount of positive reinforcement and always be spoken to and taught with respect. I also believe children need boundaries set that will consistently be reinforced. Our job is to teach them those boundaries but to do so with compassion. It truly makes my day, when I see a student that finally "gets" what we are discussing or learning. Teaching is a great joy for me. I graduated with honors from MacMurray College, majoring in Deaf/Hard of Hearing Teacher Education. I gained certification through the State of Illinois and through ACSI. I have served in the educational setting for over 11 years. I have a vast background in s

Carmen L - Riverbank, CA 95367 (53.5 mi) - Geography Tutor - $40.00/hr.
I enjoy working with children. My theory of teaching is using the multiple intelligence theory. I believe that all children have the capacity to learn but in their own way. I like to incoporate different styles of learning in a lesson. I also like to incorporate hands on activities, because I believe that doing is learning. I have been working with children from K-12 grade since 2001. I was part of the Math Academy in 2002. I have been subsituting in grades K-8 since 2009. I am fluent in the Spanish and I have experience working with migrant as well as with English Learner students. I worked with EL students for 3 years. I have also had the chance to work with special needs children.
