Wendy G. - Chantilly, VA 20152 (21.6 mi) - Testing Skills Tutor - $30.00/hr.
I have many years of helping young students improve their abilities to test better in the classroom. I have over of 30 years of progressive experience in tutoring young children in the elementary years of education in all subject matter areas. My specialty is literacy and reading, but I am also adept in teaching all of the math curricula as well. I also firmly believe that teaching organizational skills and proper research methodologies are very important for the classroom today--and every child needs these skills in order to excel in the classroom and survive.
I am also a qualified art teacher in the NOVA area. I believe in tutoring so that the child receives feedback and fully understands his/her own limitations and how to overcome obstacles in class. Many children lack positivity in the methodology!
I also believe that using art instruction helps children to learn in a more cr

Miss Deb S. - Gaithersburg, MD 20877 (33.8 mi) - Testing Skills Tutor - $50.00/hr.
16 years of Public School Teaching Experience
15 years of Preschool Education Teacher
I taught students with various special needs in a public school system for sixteen years. I left teaching to raise my son and then to raise my step children. I decided to re-enter the world of work and began to work part time in various offices (insurance, real estate, small business, clothing store and landscaping/gardening center) so that I could have the experiences outside of a classroom environment. I decided to work with children and began to pursue a position as a preschool teacher. I have experience working with adults who happen to have various special needs and I have worked with children from kindergarten through high school. My degree in special education has allowed me to be proficient with individualizing instruction and curriculum to meet the needs of each person I tutor. I beli

Corrinne P. - Culpeper, VA 22701 (37.5 mi) - Testing Skills Tutor - $52.50/hr.
I love to incorporate art and sensory experiences into everything I do to really activate the brain. The "Drill and Kill" is very rarely appropriate, so I tailor every approach individually. What works for one student may not work with another. My formal training includes many intervention types and experience with multiple programs and curricula, so I have a large pool from which to draw...then we get creative! My style REALLY aims for those over-arching foundational skills like critical thinking, thought organization, and problem solving. I will also track and provide data to monitor progress and hold myself accountable for effectiveness. Let's start out by saying I am definitely not your average tutor! Fun is vital to motivation, and I live on the stuff! I have been teaching for over fifteen years in a variety of environments, working in inclusive environments with children aged

Lena N. - Washington, DC 20016 (39 mi) - Testing Skills Tutor - $25.00/hr.
I use the Communicative Learning Teaching for my classes.The communicative approach is a method that emphasizes interaction both as a means of learning and as the ultimate goal. The communicative approach is especially used to teach speaking in the target language. Speaking lessons should always concentrate on communication, which means sometimes ignoring mistakes that do not interfere and finding ways around mistakes that do interfere. What mistakes you do and do not accept should be determined by the level at which the student is expected to perform. My classes are Student-Centered. I choose topics according to the student’s interests, both personal and professional. I use many authentic materials, created by a native speaker and intended for native speakers, written or recorded. Proficiency in reading and listening means the ability to handle authentic texts—and the best way to deve

Teresa S - Warrenton, MO 63383 (22 mi) - Testing Skills Tutor - $47.50/hr.
I believe all children can learn. A good teacher tries to find each child's individual learning style and accomodate lessons to match it. I also think learning should be fun, so I use a lot of games and other incentives. I am patient, have a good sense of humor, and have age and the experience of being the mother of two twenty-somethings on my side. I taught in the Wright City RII School District for 26 years, at both high school and middle school level. During that time I taught everything from English and American literature to basic grammar and writing skills. I also taught some reading classes. I have extensive experience in writing research papers and strong skills in grammar and punctuation. I was an assistant principal for two years, and helped develop a reading program for the middle school. As a professional teacher tutoring students was an essential part of ensuring suc

My way of teaching is learning each individual child's way of learning. Then it is important to teach that child according to the way he/ she will learn to succeed. I enjoy children and they enjoy working with me. I find humor and put children at ease. I listen to what they have to say to me. I expect children to be able to attain very high goals.
