Stephanie F - Blue Springs, MO 64014 (23.8 mi) - Poetry Tutor - $38.50/hr.
I truly enjoy teaching. I believe that every child has the ability to learn in their own unique way. I am patient and calm and I get along well with children. I believe in discovering a child's learning style in order to help them reach their full potential. I like to help students feel successful. When a student realizes that they can understand their work, the smile on their face fills me with joy. I have a Bachelor's in Social Work and have worked in that field for a number of years. I have an Elementary Education degree with an endorsement in Special Education.
I have worked as a para-educator for approximately two years in an elementary school setting. I spent one on one time with students to assist them with increasing their comprehension of school materials. I have substituted a number of times and I have also taught summer school.

Lisa W - Independence, MO 64055 (31.1 mi) - Poetry Tutor - $35.00/hr.
As a graduate of the University of Phoenix and an experienced accountant, I am knowledgeable in the accounting process and principles required in business. I am proficient in verbal and written communications and was fortunate to have several of my college papers used as examples with which other students could learn proper formal writing techniques. I have supervised accounting staff for 15 years and am a patient and encouraging coach. My goal is not to just teach the answers, but to teach students how to think and process information on their own. I believe the best way of learning is doing. To that end, I seek to help the student understand what is needed in a given situation and then teach the steps to achieving the goal. My teaching/learning environment is free from fear of failure, relaxed, and fun. The student will have the opportunity to ask questions, follow instructions, and th

Cheryl C - Raytown, MO 64133 (31.3 mi) - Poetry Tutor - $34.50/hr.
I taught college students computer science and applications courses at Sanford Brown College and National College. I taught 7th grade English as a second language for the Kansas City School District. I was also a substitute teacher. I taught English to ESL foreign language students using my guitar. I also let my students play my guitar and sing along. It was the only way I discovered, which would keep their attention so they would remain seated.

Mignon D - Kansas City, MO 64130 (34.6 mi) - Poetry Tutor - $39.00/hr.
My BA degree was in Speech & Theatre. Who would have known that a shy kid like me would have excelled in public speaking, english, and theatre. I love the English language, even though I've had classes in French and Spanish. I started school when I was 4 years old (too early), and all my grade school years was challanged with education. Now that I am an adult, I feel that I have the experience to help children understand and find it easier to learn English and grammer, sentence writing, composition writing, essays, etc. Laid back, but encouraging.If a child is struggling, I don't think you should add fear and criticism to the situation. Having had Catholic nuns in all my grammer school days, pretty much put the "fear of God" into me, until I went on to public high school and college. then I was able to relax and embrace english and literature.

Laura B - Kansas City, MO 64111 (37.7 mi) - Poetry Tutor - $38.50/hr.
As a student at Grinnell College, I was motivated to achieve at a high level. During my four years of college, I earned a BA in French and Biology. I also spent four months during my third year studying in France, where I lived with a host mother and attended classes at a local university. Currently, I am working toward earning my Master's Degree in Education at the University of Missouri-St. Louis. I tutored college and high school students while attending college, and I currently tutor middle school and elementary students in math, reading, and science. A variety of instructional methods must be used to engage all students in learning. In order to help a child reach his or her potential, a teacher must be willing to acknowledge that student's learning style and work toward improving the child's weaknesses while also enhancing his or her strengths.

Chelsea R - Kansas City, MO 64111 (39.1 mi) - Poetry Tutor - $38.50/hr.
Graduating in 2007 with a BA in English as well as a BA in Philosophy demonstrates the motivated and hard working student I was. I chose to go abroad after college to experience the world while giving back to the global community. I traveled to Poland and taught English at a private language school for 2 ½ years. I have experience teaching all levels and ages of students. As a teacher I have perfected my grammatical and writing skills as was demanded by my students. Learning doesn’t have to be boring! I always try to motivate my students with enthusiasm and humor so that learning becomes an exciting challenge as opposed to a daunting task. I find that students learn best when they are an active part of an engaging learning process. As a teacher this is what I will strive to provide. I am a patient, flexible person who is able to identify the student’s difficulties and come up wit

Laurie W - Prairie Village, KS 66208 (39.2 mi) - Poetry Tutor - $38.50/hr.
My #1 goal is to help each of my students reach his or her ultimate academic potential. Every student has the ability to succeed academically. I believe that children learn best when concepts can be taught/explained to them in their own terms. Once a common ground can be extablished between student and teacher the learning process becomes much easier and the students gain the understanding that ultimately leads to academic stability. I am a high school business and computer teacher. I have taught for 5 years. I throughly enjoy working with and getting to know my students. I consistently work with students to help them excel both in my course work and in their other classes. In addition to having a strong background in business and computers, I was also a communications major, thus I am confident in my ability to help students succeed in the public speaking and language arts.
