Karen S. - Mount Holly, NJ 08060 (4.3 mi) - Composition Tutor - $32.50/hr.
I combine a variety of teaching styles to accommodate student's learning style. When it comes to GED instruction, I would say that math is my strong suit. I always try to find examples of how certain skills could be applied to real life experiences. I have experience working with students from Kindergarten through adult education. My earliest teaching experience was with primary grade children (K-2) in an inner-city school district. I taught basic skills to incarcerated men in a NJ Correctional Facility. I have experience working with first generation college students in need of remedial coursework before advancing to college level courses. I'm currently working (part-time) teaching GED writing and math, 2 evenings a week.

Gina D. - Levittown, PA 19056 (13.2 mi) - Composition Tutor - $35.00/hr.
The Key for me is to Make Learning as Fun & as Easy as you can! Bc the more a student likes what he/she is learning the more he/she will want to learn! And to do that, you have to Know your student - his/her learning process. I also make a point to ask my students what they like & then I use that to make my lessons Fun & Enjoyable rather than a Chore or something they don't want to do! I also Explore Why they find a particular topic hard and then I present that same topic / subject matter in Another way to make it easier for them to understand. I have a gift of being able to see (& explain) things a different way - so I use that in my lessons. I have been tutoring since 2004 both privately and employed. I had worked at The Tutoring Center at St. Dominic's parish on Frankford Ave., in NE Phila. from 2004 until it closed in 2009. I have also tutored privately in the past and continue to do

Robin J. - Clementon, NJ 08021 (17.3 mi) - Composition Tutor - $37.50/hr.
My teaching style is flexible. I create a lesson plan that is individualized and benficial to that of the student I am tutoring. I adapt and adjust the curriculum to what is of primary importance to my student. I have worked in the field of education as a teacher for 30 years. I have taught basic skills in foundations of Reading to middle school students. I have also taught all subject areas to elementary school children. The most memorable and most valuable experience in my career was teaching first graders how to read. It takes a trained professional to be able to lay out the framework children need to learn how to read. Reading skills on the first grade level are the most rudimentary and applicable to all grade levels there after.

Laureen K. - Elkins Park, PA 19027 (20.4 mi) - Composition Tutor - $32.50/hr.
My philosophy of teaching is best articulated by the famous quote by Michelanglo --" I am still learning." I try to relate to my students that, although I may have a little more knowledge and experience, we are all, hopefully, continuously seeking knowledge about ourselves and the world. My role as a teacher is more one of a fellow journeyman than an 'expert.'
I believe that if you are passionate about what you teach and enthusiastic about the teaching process, students respond. I love the written word in all its manifestations --its beauty, its flexibility and its power to connect and communicate. I teach that writing is not an art reserved for the few but an intrinsic part of being human. We are story-tellers by nature, and if given the opportunity, safety, guidance and skills, anyone can write well.
Regarding my approach to teaching composition, I employ a thematic-based st

Olaniyan A. - Philadelphia, PA 19123 (20.9 mi) - Composition Tutor - $15.00/hr.
I have began to help students in the 1960s when I was a grade school student adn when I volunteered at Get Set, where my mother worked as a full time teacher assistant. Later, I worked as a councilor as a summer-time employee of the Philadelphia, Pennsylvania school system. I also volunteered, in the 1980s and the 1990s, at the Chapter Two Program of the YMCA and I volunteered as a tutor in the PASCEP program of Temple University in the 1990s. My style is based on the student's manner of learning and it is based on repetition of various materials. First, I allow the student to tell me what she or he knows about the subject. From that I can see what he or she has maintained and what style of learning fits the student best.
I also like to have students complete problems in a very close manner to the manner that I used to solve similar problems. After I finish one problem,
