Sterling S. - Charlotte, NC 28270 (8.1 mi) - SAT - Verbal Tutor - $37.50/hr.
I generally teach through visual aids and through very thorough explanations. If the student doesn't understand the first time I explain something, I will explain it in a different way and will keep explaining it in different ways until he/she fully understands what's being taught. I try my hardest to teach by explaining concepts logically and showing WHY and HOW, rather than simply saying something is what it is "just because." I have always been an honors student and am currently taking the highest levels of math (AP Calculus) and spanish (Spanish 5) at my high school. I am involved in Peer Mentors at my school and have tutored multiple students in a variety of subjects. I have also tutored students outside of school, mostly in math. I love teaching others and helping them to understand concepts that they previously were struggling with. I am very patient and will work my hardest to ma

Jesse R. - Charlotte, NC 28226 (8.9 mi) - SAT - Verbal Tutor - $35.00/hr.
I am a career educator who has taught English and other Humanities based courses extensively since 1988. My primary experience is on the college and university level but I also have a high school and middle school background. The educational and pedagogical philosophy I hold is this: The ability to communicate effectively remains the most vital of skills and is crucial to academic and career advancement. It is with a sense of privilege and honor I teach and with a sense of urgency as communication skills continue to evolve in a quickly changing world. Technology is not a substitute for literacy. It is there as a vital augmentation of learning. Critical thinking is nourished so well-considered and studied opinions are more than welcome; they are essential. Students have conveyed to me that my style is one of "relaxed intensity" with a flair for the dramatic laced with a sense of hum

Tim C. - Cleveland, NC 27013 (32.5 mi) - SAT - Verbal Tutor - $30.00/hr.
I help guide the student along, having them discover much of the information in a trial and error fashion. I tend to use the questions they are struggling with the most, making similar examples, then walking them through these problems and breaking down the problems until the student understands the how the process works. I have been tutoring for over seven years, starting with my peers in tenth grade. I have tutored a wide range of subjects, from Geometry through Calculus III, from general computer knowledge through utilizing the advanced functions of Microsoft Access. I have tutored people ranging from my peers to people three times my age, to as young as third graders. My motto has evolved into "Helping those who feel they can not be helped"

Marra K - Charlotte, NC 28202 (0.6 mi) - SAT - Verbal Tutor - $34.50/hr.
I believe that first key step to successful teaching is to allows the student convey his/her needs or problem areas. While much can be gained from looking at previous evaluations and test scores, I think that it is crucial to let the student express their needs to make them feel comfortable and build a commitment to the teaching program. In individual sessions, I feel that allowing the student to discuss concepts out loud in addition to completing written exercises and preparing questions facilitates the learning process. I also find that real world analogies are useful ways of linking academic information to previously learned concepts and facilitate the student's understanding. Walking students through diagrams or schematics is also helpful, especially when teaching scientific information. Since high school, I have tutored friends, peers, and my younger siblings in several subjects

Andy G - Charlotte, NC 28204 (1.6 mi) - SAT - Verbal Tutor - $42.00/hr.
Upon graduating from Johns Hopkins with a degree in writing, I substitute taught full-time at the high school and the middle school levels in the small upstate New York town where I grew up. Since my days as a substitute teacher, I have worked as a freelance writer, Senior Editor at a major publishing company, Senior Copywriter at an ad agency, and attended grad school. Over the past 15 years, I have tutored a number of high school students primarily in English, social studies, paper-writing, and general test-taking strategies. I am grateful that school was easy for me, but I also know that for many children the task of discovering, understanding, making sense of, and retaining information can be tough and may seem almost overwhelming. All children can learn and there is no better way to instill that desire in them, than to work one-on-one or in small groups. All subjects can be made i

Dean D - Charlotte, NC 28203 (1.7 mi) - SAT - Verbal Tutor - $38.00/hr.
In Medical School, Residency and practice I have always been expected to be in the simultaneous role of student, teacher, mentor and tutor. I can say I have a vast amount of training and expereience in science, physics, chemistry, mathematics, as well as the liberal arts. I score as an ITSP on the Myers-Briggs evaluation which means I am not only concrete in speech and utilitarian in getting things done, I am also directive and attentive in teaching settings.
I have done a small amount of teaching at the junior college level and am comfortable giving oral presentations to groups of people. My teaching style has been to make learning fun and easy to remember. When I have taught I've been very interactive with the students and have gotten many compliments from students and patients as well, on my ability to communicate on almost any level.

Shannon B - Charlotte, NC 28205 (1.9 mi) - SAT - Verbal Tutor - $38.00/hr.
My tutoring and teaching experience has introduced me to Derek who has no surviving family members, Mike who has abusive family members, Paul who has been tracked inappropriately, and many others with discouraging situations. Rather than let their hardships be crutches or barriers, I approach their capabilities no differently than the highest academically tracked students with pleasant home lives. I just adjust to their paces. I believe that, as Mike Rose says, “Students will float to the mark you set.” My career path has been filled with various tutoring and teaching activities. I taught high school English for three years and am currently teaching community college English. I began tutoring on a volunteer basis for fun in college and continued to do so during graduate school on a paid basis. I am also a published freelance writer with three years of corporate communications experience.
