Rebecca W. - San Antonio, TX 78245 (8.7 mi) - Literature Tutor - $24.50/hr.
I have my Bachelors Degree in Professional Writing with a minor in Creative Writing. In other words, I've suffered through hundreds of grueling English assignments. I know the pain, and I know how to get you through it. I've worked for magazines, taken teaching courses, written many stories, worked as a copy writer, and I do volunteer teaching at a church every Sunday. Interactive, practical, and fun!

Edward M. - Mico, TX 78056 (11.2 mi) - Literature Tutor - $35.00/hr.
Skillful. I like a conversational, relaxed style in which the students are encouraged to speak English as much as possible. I often have students repeating useful, whole sentences and phrases.Mistakes are okay! Humor is okay! Questions are encouraged. I am a very experienced teacher of English as a Second Language (ESL). I served for three years as a Peace Corps Volunteer in Afghanistan and the Fiji Islands. I also taught ESL in Japan, Saudi Arabia and Pakistan. I have also taught ESL for many years here in the USA to both adults and children. I have experience with many foreign cultures.

Manuel R. - San Antonio, TX 78249 (18.1 mi) - Literature Tutor - $22.50/hr.
Over one year's experience tutoring writing at the college level. 8 months as a peer tutor at College of the Mainland, and 3 months self-employed. A variety of subjects covered using MLA and APA writing styles. Students that were helped ranged from collegiate high school to returning adult students. Creative and technical writing also covered. Instead of time-consuming lesson plans, my sessions are based on the student's daily needs with a focus on any trouble areas encountered. The direction of the session is influenced by the student's opinions.

Presenter of Scholarly Papers I tend to be really flexible and try to adapt my teaching style to the learning style of the student. For students who tend to be more tactile, I might have them handle apples if a math problem references apples. If a student is working on a writing assignment, I will offer suggestions (such as marking spelling/grammar/punction mistakes) and help them learn how to correct the errors so they won't continue to make the same errors in the future.

Andrew F. - San Antonio, TX 78209 (21.2 mi) - Literature Tutor - $30.00/hr.
I enjoy deconstructing the building blocks of various kinds of literature (i.e. how it's structured and written). Whether is it an assigned class reading, an assigned home reading, or one I suggest, I can help the individual look at literature in a more healthily critical way. After understanding the individual's goals, I can construct an approach to help them reach them!
If you have any questions, please, ask! My approach is one that is peculiar to each of my students. As an auto-didactic learner, I believe that everyone has their own way of learning. Therefore, I use an approach that I feel works well for each of my students, with regard to whether a student thinks abstractly or concretely, for example. With so many possible goals, it is important to be flexible to work with each student's learning style. I present concepts with the idea that experience is the key to learning. I str

VictorAlonzo A. - Wimberley, TX 78676 (54 mi) - Literature Tutor - $45.00/hr.
I work with individuals who are interested in discovering their own strengths and possibilities for advancing in their grade school, collegiate, or career path. With extensive experience training and developing students and professionals in many industries, I have a very unique perspective to offer individuals and students. As a tutor, my goal is to facilitate the brilliance in individuals that they may not see so easily. People have the capacity to learn when they are curious, capable, motivated, and above all, passionate to reach their highest potential.
My experience as a homeschool teacher for over 12 years will help prepare elementary and high school students with a learning approach that is efficient and customized to each student's learning style. If you are a college student, you have a lot of options to choose from not to mention all the various careers that command a speci

Marvin C - San Antonio, TX 78250 (12.8 mi) - Literature Tutor - $41.50/hr.
Whether it is in front of a class
of 40 or one-on-one, I have been
endowed not only with the talent
to teach, but also with the
God-given ability to motivate.
Most students hate my guts for the
first week or two because I do not
tolerate underachievement from
anyone, including parents; but
down the line the most frequent
evaluation I receive is, “Mr.
C, you are awesome.”
There is no one who cannot be
motivated to learn something well;
and I always associate what must
be learned with what a student's
passion is or in what he/she is
already interested. My students
do not just learn the subject I
teach. They learn how to learn
and think "out of the box" and
how to become a success. My teaching credentials are in
English and education. However...
At the middle school level and
high school level, I have
taught/tutored English composition,
geography, history, soci

Sean d - San Antonio, TX 78228 (14.9 mi) - Literature Tutor - $38.00/hr.
I have a reputation for making often difficult and recondite literature accessible and appealing, while candidly admitting its rigors. My personal educational philosophy holds that one major obstacle to students' intellectual maturation is their attitude toward difficulty, and I do my best to try and convince them that we ought to welcome such difficulty and that, in doing so, we open ourselves up to the possibility of rapid and dramatic advancement in academic work. I began teaching as an Instructor and Dean's Fellow in Rhetoric and Composition and in English literature courses while a graduate student at the University of Iowa, consistently earning student praise in end-of-course evaluations. I bring the depth and breadth of full baccalaureate majors in Greek, Latin and British literature to my teaching and research, and am adept at assisting students who have not benefited from expos

Justin T - Helotes, TX 78023 (17.1 mi) - Literature Tutor - $39.50/hr.
Applicable to this job, I remember my high school years and the processes I had during my English and Composition assignments. I completed an English Bachelor’s degree, with three different areas of focus, Professional Writing, Creative Writing, and Composition. I am finishing a Master’s degree in Rhetoric and Composition. I am on temporary, as-needed employment at Pearson Education Services as a scorer. Finally, I tutored, assisted, and participated in the lives of my fellow students. My experience has allowed me to have an understanding of theory, practice, and rhetoric and solve any personal compositional and academic concerns that have come up, and I look forward to doing so again at this job of tutoring. My missionary experiences informed me of one idea: people are important and they have to be considered person-by-person. Those experiences have led me to take a teaching philosophy
