Niko S. - Moseley, VA 23120 (47.3 mi) - Creative Writing Tutor - $35.00/hr.
My teaching style is very hands on and unique. I focus on the writer's voice above all because without that, they are only writing words with no soul behind them. In college I was a "student instructor" in my university's writing lab, which is just another way of saying that I was a tutor. Post graduation, I now have experience with journalism as I've written articles for The Style Vibe and Green Label, both highly respected online magazines. Also as a creative writer I have published numerous short stories as well as a few poems. I currently have two novellas under review for publication.

Elizabeth R - Lacrosse, VA 23950 (17.2 mi) - Creative Writing Tutor - $42.00/hr.
In my experience as a teacher in the church,I have worked with a variety of students from young to old, from very intelligent to the mentally challenged. Thus I have learned to be flexible. One style does not suit all. With one on one or a small group, the ability to change to fit the student population is extremely important. Especially with composition, it is important to help students be able to write about what they see and feel. I think I can do that, Community Service professional with years of private industry experience. Excellent oral and written communication skills, demonstrated interpersonal skills, and proven community outreach expertise. Skilled in educating individuals, coordinating resources and taking initiative in projects. An integral member of any staff, able to effectively serve organizational needs in building alliances and achieving stated goals.

Joshua H - Norlina, NC 27563 (26.1 mi) - Creative Writing Tutor - $51.50/hr.
I have always had a passion for education and the gained knowledge thereof. I pride myself on facing any/all situations in an intellectual manner that usually results in collaborative outcome. With a degree in Theatre, many aspects of social skills and professionalism abound. We are taught to present ourselves before others, cooperate with others onstage and off, and enthusiasm is a must have to maintain on stage. Organization and creativity abound in this field as well as character work can result in chaos but the development thereof is based completely on one's artistic interpretation. These qualities assure great successes in life as they can be encompasses in many occupation avenues such as the one for which I am applying. I have had extensive experience in the education atmosphere. I am very comfortable handling the chaotic and uncertain situations that arise in the classroom. A per

Thomas P - Warrenton, NC 27589 (27.6 mi) - Creative Writing Tutor - $41.00/hr.
I really enjoy teaching the writing process.I love working with all children, and I firmly believe that all children can learn to become great writers when they find out what the discipline expects of them. I am very patient and considerate of childrens needs; as some are hands on learners, some are visual learners, some need a scaffolding approach to writing, or simply need to know organizational approaches to writing...so I attempt to meet the student where they are in the learning process and provide them the nurturing approach, and healthy environment. I seek to enable them to be confident in their abilities, and help them achieve their writing targets. I have been teaching four years. I am a highly driven person and expect a lot of myself as well as my students. I earned a BA degree in English Literature, and a Master of Arts degree in English/Creative writing from Wayne State Unive

Klarissa S - Red House, VA 23963 (29.7 mi) - Creative Writing Tutor - $37.00/hr.
I've always believed that children learn by doing. I would rather have my students get real hands-on experience because concepts can be better attained and understood if children get real experience with it. I also believe that children learn differently from one another and a teacher should be able to accommodate the different learning styles of her or his students. One method may not work for a student, so I feel that it is the teacher's responsibility to make sure each student reaches their full potential by finding ways that will work for her/his students and then incorporate these differences in the classroom. After watching a documentary on teachers teaching in the inner city, I decided to switch my major from Pre-Law to Elementary Education. I've always loved learning and I wanted to be able to convey that same message to my students. In college, I majored in Elementary Education

Avis W - Lynchburg, VA 24502 (50.5 mi) - Creative Writing Tutor - $53.50/hr.
What works for one student may not work for the other. One-on-one instruction is a great opportunity to find out which learning-teaching style works best for the individual student. I am patient, friendly and flexible. At the same time, I am driven to see tangible progress in my work, so that, ultimately, the student achieves his or her goals.
Being a teacher is not a job for me; rather, it is who I am. Teaching is my service to others. If you looked over my resume, you would see that I have a Bachelor of Arts degree in English, a year of experience as an adjunct instructor at a medical career college and two years teaching English as a Second Language at a private institution. However, if you looked over my life, you would see that I have been teaching, tutoring and mentoring my entire life. I have volunteered as a mentor, a tutor, and a teacher in community organizations, in l

Amanda N - Lynchburg, VA 24501 (51.2 mi) - Creative Writing Tutor - $38.50/hr.
The most important aspect of education that I have learned is that it is not about teachers making a difference; it is about helping students make a difference. Knowing this, I strive to help all students succeed using the most efficient learning strategies possible. Technology is a growing tool in the classroom and I intend to use it as much as possible to engage students and help them learn. Also, it is important to incorporate many learning strategies into planning in order to reach all students. Critical thinking strategies and reading strategies also need to be integrated into a lesson as well. It is important to me to provide all necessary adaptations to help all students succeed. As a recent graduate of Kansas State University, I am excited for the opportunity to teach reading and writing to all students. During my experience throughout the last four years, I have been fortunate e

Margaret C - Lynchburg, VA 24501 (52.1 mi) - Creative Writing Tutor - $36.00/hr.
I have a great deal of experience training fellow employees and have devised the system of show them once, let them do it once while talking them through it, and then let them do it once without assistance. This system also translates to teaching. The last step is the most important; it forces the student to think for him or herself and instills confidence that the problem is not beyond his or her level of understanding. It is very important to teach students how to figure things out for themselves – probably the most important lesson I learned at UVa. If a child knows how to utilize resources such as the textbook, example problems, and the internet, then he or she will be able to work independently through a tough problem. Education has always been extremely important to me. To me there is no greater feeling than finally grasping a difficult concept and I love helping someone else

I am a William and Mary graduate with a BS in Chemistry, with several years of programming experience from developing my own computer games. In addition I performed laboratory research at the College of William and Mary for a thesis and have 2 years of experience tutoring in Elementary Spanish, Computer Science, General Chemistry, and Organic Chemistry. My teaching style is very simple, but effective. I merely talk to the student to find out where he or she is having difficulty, and work to find ways to remedy the problem. We will go over the concepts and do some exercises that will help to answer questions and deepen understanding of the source material.

Donna G - Lynchburg, VA 24503 (53.7 mi) - Creative Writing Tutor - $34.00/hr.
When teaching, I believe in the "wow factor" so the student can really see how much fun learning can be. When they are amazed with the world of knowledge, it makes their learning and my teaching so much fun! I am here to help students set and achieve their highest goals. As a lifelong student and advocate of learning, I achieved a GPA of 3.75 upon returning to university classes as an older adult. I have many years of working in business, coaching and mentoring in several fields, which include accounting and business practices, such as customer service. While attending college, my happiest moments arrived with exceptional grades on research and theory papers. In the team environment, I am usually the "editor" since it comes so naturally.
