Bethy D. - Wallingford, CT 06492 (5.1 mi) - Earth Science Tutor - $17.50/hr.
I am very laid back and flexible. While I might be calm I only have 3 rules, 1. Be respectful, 2. the words "I can't" are not allowed :), and 3. have fun! I tend to create games based on the skills that are being taught and I'm not into lecturing, my approach is very hands. Learning can be fun! Hey! My names Bethy! I'm 13 years old and in 8th grade. I've been tutoring since I was in 5th grade. I can tutor all ages in almost any subject. Last year I had the highest GPA in my whole school! I love teaching anyone who is willing to learn! I also teach children with learning disabilities and special needs.

Dawn F. - New Preston Marble Dale, CT 06777 (23.6 mi) - Earth Science Tutor - $30.00/hr.
I love interacting with my students and finding out what drives them and what they feel hinders their success. I choose activities that make learning fun while making the information relevant and easy to understand. I also strive to build up a student's academic confidence. I believe all students can be successful in anything they put their mind to, sometimes it may take longer for the light bulb moment but I am willing to do anything I can to ensure they reach the point where they fully understand what they are learning and can apply their knowledge not just recite it. I have taught in both suburban schools at the high school level and urban schools at the elementary/middle school level. While teaching I previously have tutored students. My main experience teaching has been various science courses but I have also taught math and reading.

Lindsay B - Cheshire, CT 06410 (0.9 mi) - Earth Science Tutor - $40.50/hr.
Upon graduating from Radford University in Virginia, I accepted a position teaching Pre-Kindergarten at Cheshire Country Day School, located in Milldale, CT. I worked at CCDS during the previous summers as an aide while I was on breaks from school. I will receive my Master's Degree in Special Education, focusing on Serious Emotional Disabilities, with a cross-endorsement (K-12) in December 2010.
My most recent tutoring experience involved tutoring a first grade student in reading. We met on a weekly basis throughout the school year and during the summers for 2 years. My passion is teaching, it always has been. If I could describe my teaching style in one word, it would be caring. Children need to be cared for and know that they can trust you as their teacher. Once that trust is formed, they will be more apt to succeed. My experience teaching four and five year old Pre-K stud

Roland F - Prospect, CT 06712 (3.1 mi) - Earth Science Tutor - $41.00/hr.
After over decade of classroom teaching and preceding experiences teaching as a manager, I have developed a style that would be considered eclectic, at once rooted in the cognitive behavioral and infused with existentialist expectations. The key element is to reach each unique individual, assessing strengths and weaknesses, and facilitate an atmosphere in which students can find personal success while engaging the group dynamic. I spend a great deal of time examining just what it is I am doing as an educator, how I feel about outcomes and how I can adjust curriculum, practices, and in my case, administrative functioning to better serve my charges.
Existing educational practices in no small way determine the modes and methods one uses to engage learners in and out of the classroom. However, teaching style and empathetic relationships to a great extent determine how students are engag

Devika D - Wallingford, CT 06492 (3.4 mi) - Earth Science Tutor - $40.00/hr.
As a recent college graduate, it is my strong belief that education can open doors to opportunities. Through my undergraduate and graduate career, I have tutored and mentored my peers through science college courses, including biology, genetics, and chemistry. During the summer months, I instructed courses (Immunology and Anatomy/Physiology) for high school students as part of a summer boarding program. Although my formal training has been in the sciences, I am looking for the opportunity to tutor in math, which was my strong point in high school and college through AP and Honors courses. I truly believe a proper education can open doors, but the teacher-student relationship is the key to that success. Every student has the potential to achieve greatness, and as a tutor, I strive to find the best teaching technique for an individual. Some students learn from activity-based instruction wh

Kimberly C - Wallingford, CT 06492 (5.1 mi) - Earth Science Tutor - $37.00/hr.
I enjoy working with children and getting to know them and their learning styles. Each child learns in different ways and I like to focus on using a variety of methods. Some children are more visual learners, while others are auditory learners. I often like to "conference" with my students and get their feed back to know what is working for them or not and give them the effective strategies that work for them best. I strive to give them confidence in what they are doing and enjoy what they are learning. Teachers who are enthuastic, supportive, and understanding can make a world of difference to a child's educational program. I am a graduate from Albertus Magnus College and my concentration was in Child Development. Most of my education included studying the child's brain and how it develops and learns. Studying child development has become essential to my practice as a teacher in the ear

Frank S - North Haven, CT 06473 (5.4 mi) - Earth Science Tutor - $44.00/hr.
I have four semesters of calculus, numerous chemistry, physics, engineering, computer science, statistics, finance, accounting, marketing, management, and liberal arts courses. I also have a temporary CT teaching certificate for secondary education math. I believe any student is capable of learning any subject when they are taught in a gentle and patient manner. It is important to help the student gain confidence with the subject and to build his self-esteem. As the student increases his knowledge and problem-solving abilities his confidence and curiosity will also increase. Learning will become a lifetime pursuit.

Barbara S. - Wolcott, CT 06716 (5.4 mi) - Earth Science Tutor - $46.50/hr.
As an educator of children I realize that teaching them is more rewarding than anything I have ever done. There is nothing more gratifying than watching an individual excel with a subject after I have tutored them. My diverse background in many subjects has helped me become a very informative,creative instructor. I was appointed to represent several of the tutoring companies I worked for as a communicator answering important questions which benifitted their future curriculum and inner workings. I have been a tutor and site director in the district I work in. I have a very diverse background in education and employment. I have earned a BA degree in English Literature and I taught English as a second language to children and adults. I have tutored children in reading,math,English, environmental science, and ESOL for over ten years.I have worked as an instructor of environmental science fo

I understand that children (and adults) have differennt learning styles and try to tailor my approach to the specific needs of the student. The bilingual students I teach have a unique challenge in that the letters of the alphabet represent different sounds in English versus Spanish. I have a great rapport with the children and because they are receptive to my teaching style have been very successful. Although I have taught, coached and tutored aorking professionals I only have one year experience actually teaching. Since I have been unemployed (July, 2008)I have been volunteering in a bilingual second grade at Hill Central Music Academy in New Haven, CT
