sarmad m. - Worcester, MA 01603 (53.3 mi) - Grammar Tutor - $42.50/hr.
I'm 21 years old, and I have worked as a tutor for 3 years. I can teach english even for students who don't speak my language. I'm from Iraq and I have studied in the American university of Iraq. The university is in a Kurdih region, Kurdistan of Iraq, so I had to work with many students who don't speak Arabic. I found out that it's better to teach a language without using your native language.

Mark M - Brattleboro, VT 05301 (4.4 mi) - Grammar Tutor - $35.50/hr.
Some people learn by talking, some tactically by doing, some visually by example. It depends on the student, or I devise a presentation that involves all three ways of presenting the information. I believe that learning and understanding the value of what is being learned is as important as the content. I am a doer who has shared his knowledge and experience in a variety of ways. When I worked as a photographer and filmmaker, I taught those subjects at many different institutions, from an after-school program for elementary school kids to NYU Graduate School. For many years now, I have worked as a science writer and editor. I mentor many newly minted Chinese scientists and engineers who work for IBM in Beijing, teaching them both English grammar and the proper form and style for peer-reviewed scientific papers they are writing. I developed and taught courses in Communications and Technic

Robyn C - Townshend, VT 05353 (11.4 mi) - Grammar Tutor - $37.50/hr.
Because I have had to meet the needs of so many different students in so many different environments, I am flexible with teaching methods. A lack of resources overseas drove me to be creative and exercise methods of experiential learning: hands-on and engaged learning.
I believe in creating a safe and comfortable learning environment for students, with some room for fun. I acknowledge that every student possesses a different learning style and I strive to compliment that, especially while tutoring. I maintain high expectations and expect considerable progress.
My hope is that armed with an education, youth will be incorporated into more decision making around the world. I graduated with honors from a formal university, where I tutored fellow classmates; however, I gained most of my tutoring and teaching experience overseas, in a universal classroom. I have taught youth and adults

Tiffany M - Bennington, VT 05201 (25.1 mi) - Grammar Tutor - $36.00/hr.
As A recent graduate from a Liberal Arts School, I found it easy to connect with teaching as my calling. I have always driven for high levels of excellence in and outside the classroom and work force. Having an English and Philosphy background, I find it easy to critically think and annotate extensively works of literature. And from that I find that my skills are up to par due to writing research papers and annotating other people's work. My experiance as a student teacher at a private school in rural VT, allowed me to expand the pupils' minds to outside their comfort zone in order to learn about the world we live and the connection it has to literature. Teaching is not for everyone, but I knew it was for me when I started student teaching and felt the adrenaline rush of 25 eyes staring up at me for guidance. I feel the need to spread as much knowledge as possible to the up and coming ge

Jenifer P - Bennington, VT 05201 (25.8 mi) - Grammar Tutor - $44.50/hr.
I believe that all children are capable of learning, but many experience barriers that inhibit the learning process. My strategy is to identify these barriers, remove them whenever possible, or otherwise embrace them and work within the circumstances to achieve the best possible outcome. My background in counseling and psychology has proven invaluable in the classroom and in collaborating with parents and educators. I am looking into the process of becoming a certified teacher, and will strive to make a difference in your child's life, helping them become more successful and enthusiastic learners. I have been a substitute teacher for grades K-12 since 2001 and worked as a tutor for Siena's Higher Education Opportunity Program. As an educational consultant for 3 years, I coordinated college fairs, campus visits, and taught workshops on Writing the College Application Essay. I won sever

Jillien G - Manchester Center, VT 05255 (27.1 mi) - Grammar Tutor - $53.00/hr.
I believe in letting children be themselves, in developing a comfortable rapport with each student so that true learning can take place. I firmly believe in discovery learning and in piquing a child's natural curiosity. My aim is to find the proper teaching approach for each student by analyzing his or her strengths and weaknesses, and by promoting his or her self-esteem and unique talents. Teaching has been a gratifying part of my past career, and I would like to return to this field as soon as possible. As a graduate of Bard College, where I earned a degree in English literature, I have acquired an excellent background in the discipline of writing and composition. I have built upon this experience by earning two Master's degrees, one in Special Education and the other in Library Science. I enjoy and excel in the field of research as evidenced by my career choices, for example, Lea

Susannah C - Springfield, VT 05156 (28 mi) - Grammar Tutor - $38.00/hr.
I find working with children rewarding. I am patent and understanding and cater to individual learning styles. I use my artistic sense to help students visually understand learning. I believe the key to understanding and learning is to make learning fun and memorable. I'm a strong believer in constructivist learning and believe that children need to explore to learn. I started out working as a Head Start teacher's assistant and the following year I was promoted to Head Start teacher and manager. I have also worked as a 1:1 instructional assistant with a high needs student. Currently I worked in a behavior school as an instructional assistant, and I have stepped in to plan curriculum and teach all the classes because the teacher has been on paid leave this year. I also have been commuting to college in Castleton State College from Springfield after work to complete my degree in education.

Christine C - Northampton, MA 01060 (31.6 mi) - Grammar Tutor - $41.50/hr.
Throughout my life, I have always had an ability to talk with and to listen to adolescents. Regardless of a student’s academic aptitude, socio-economic status, or learning differences, I honestly believe that each student has the ability and the right to learn about the world around them and to be helped by adults in their life-path and individual growth. As a teacher planning lessons, I deliberately infuse the learning with opportunities for student choice, intellectual growth, and explorations into interconnected themes, ideas, and questions. I know that all students can be highly successful, if provided the opportunity to interact with engaged and thoughtful teachers. As a person who truly values learning, I have continuously engaged in being both a student and a teacher in academically rigorous studies. With over 14 years of professional education experience, including high scho

Gretchen R - Petersburgh, NY 12138 (35.6 mi) - Grammar Tutor - $45.50/hr.
I believe that children learn best when they are engaged in meaningful, interesting work. My goal is to provide an educational experience in which your child will build skills and confidence. I rarely use worksheets and textbooks to teach these skills. I prefer to make and use games and activities that will help your child master necessary skills. Learning is fun! I have 11 years of teaching experience in various settings. I have taught in public and private schools. For six years, I was a lead teacher in a Montessori Elementary classroom. During this time, I studied the curriculum and philosophy of Montessori Education. I have gained many skills through this experience that I can share with your child that will lead to success. I have also worked closely with aligning curriculum to New York State Learning Standards, to assure that my students are meeting state standards.

Kristen M - Gardner, MA 01440 (35.8 mi) - Grammar Tutor - $59.50/hr.
I enjoy working with students of all ages and I am looking forward to a life long career as an educator. With two years experience, I believe I am building a strong foundation to help students succeed in education. I am a dedicated worker who is independent, helpful and patient with children of all ages and learning styles. My experience in Special Education has taught me that all students learn differently and at their own pace and this has made me a more patient and caring educator. I am a dedicated worker who loves helping students learn and grow. During the 2009-2010 school year, I worked as a long term substitute teacher in a reading class. In this class, I taught students with low level reading skills the basic skills needed to become advanced readers. Responsibilities included making individual lesson plans for twelve students, quizzing students on current spelling words and test
