Brittany V. - Cookeville, TN 38501 (25.3 mi) - Science Tutor - $45.00/hr.
I am graduating with my Bachelor's degree in Sociology at Tennessee Technological University of Cookeville, TN. I transferred from a 2 year community college in Harriman, TN known as Roane State Community College. Before starting college, I graduated from Rockwood High School in Rockwood, TN, where I never made lower than a B or a high C in some of my harder classes. I started taking college classes in my Senior year of high school and I was always in the advanced Math classes up until that point. I'm a quick, fast learner and always strive to be better in what I do. Right now, my major at TTU is in the concentration of Social Work, in which I hope to become a high school guidance counselor or a counselor in practice. I try my best to adjust my teaching style to meet every individual's needs. I know that every person not only is taught differently, but also learns and understands differe

John D - Cookeville, TN 38501 (23.8 mi) - Science Tutor - $36.50/hr.
After graduating from MTSU, I went to Prague, Czech Republic to train and work as a teacher of English as a foreign language. I secured a position at Bell School International. Here I taught mostly adult students but I also had a few high school classes. I found it was more satisfying teaching the younger students and so I looked for work at the elementary level. At Horackova Elementary, I taught 6th to 9th grade English. I had a great rapport with all the students and enjoyed planning for the array of levels and age groups. However, I was the only teacher there who spoke English and felt alienated from the school. As a result, I made the difficult decision to return to the United States. I seek a student-centered classroom with a balance of authority and trustworthiness in the teacher so that the students respect me while at the same time feeling comfortable to share their ideas freel

Paul Z - Harriman, TN 37748 (27.8 mi) - Science Tutor - $39.00/hr.
I am a seasoned adjunct instructor and tutor at the introductory level at a Community College. I have taught a graduate level Chemistry course at a Masters granting College. My education includes a M.S. Polymer Chemistry/Science, B.S. in Biology and 46 Credits of Chemistry .
More importantly I have worked as a teaching assistant at a School for Autistic children. Through this experience and others I developed a high level of patient and understanding of the different styles of learning and the broad spectrum of speed for which children master concept. I am a firm believer that strict memorization does not allow the student to broaden their ability to solve problems of various flavors. I encourage the student to understand the concepts to avoid tedious memorization.
Additionally I believe children learn best in an environment where they do not feel intimidated or nervo

Cynthia B - Sparta, TN 38583 (27.9 mi) - Science Tutor - $36.50/hr.
I have always loved teaching, and even though I have been in the Aerospace business for the past 25 years I have always been assigned training. It has always been a natural fit for me.
I love to develop curriculum and implement programs. I would say the more difficult time a student is having learning a subject the more I want to succeed. I have taught Learning Disabilities and realized that every student can succeed. It is my job to find the key to open up the mind to find the best way someone learns because everyone learns differently. Everyone can learn! If you give me an opportunity to begin tutoring I will show you the successes! I am a Senior-level professional with comprehensive experience in P&L, operations,technical.I have a Master's degree in Project Management and have learned many organizational, computer, and business skills. I have also taught Special Education in Elementa

Amanda R - Harriman, TN 37748 (31.3 mi) - Science Tutor - $34.50/hr.
I enjoy working with students. It seems that, in most cases, tutoring is essentially a confidence-builiding exercise. Yes, it's anout instructional leadership, but it's more about showing a student they can really achieve what they're setting out to do. I really enjoy showing students that they know the solution; it's just about learning how to properly express it. And if they don't know the solution, it's about properly learning it in order to express it. I am currently an undergraduate student studying communications. I have held four collegiate journalism internships, two of which were federal internships in Oak Ridge, Tenn. In the past year, I served as assistant managing editor of my collegiate newspaper, The Oracle; served as assistant editor of the collegiate yearbook, The Eagle; and I served as a teaching assistant for the freshman introduction to journalism course at TN Tech Uni

Patricia S - Spring City, TN 37381 (32.3 mi) - Science Tutor - $31.50/hr.
I enjoy teaching and working with children. I do believe that all children can learn - some differently than others. I try my best to be patient, easygoing, and encouraging. My goal is to open a child's world to new adventures, possibilities, and opportunities. It is exciting to see a child learn and discover new ideas or ways of processing information. A good educator provides discipline and can make a difference in a person's education. I believe I make a difference of the lives of my students. I am a teacher of great experience. Having taught in the private and public schools, I have been given opportunities to work with a variety of achievers - from handicapped to gifted. I have tutored in all academic subjects except higher high school and have an amount of expertise in the reading area. I have a B.S. in education from Union College in Barbourville, KY, and a M.A. as a read

In addition, I am a reading specialist due to my Masters program at Cumberland. I have taught for 20 years in the public and private sectors. I love teaching and working with all children.

Melinda S - Dayton, TN 37321 (40 mi) - Science Tutor - $37.50/hr.
Through my years in my last position I was able to witness firsthand how different teaching styles worked well for different children. The one common factor was that if I could make it fun and add an element of hands on type activities the lessons were retained better. I enjoyed the process of getting to know my students and finding what helped them to achieve success. As they gained this success in the classroom they also gained more confidence in themselves. I believe every child is capable of reaching their full potential when given the time and tools to do so. Working in my last position I was able to participate in developing programs such as getting girls active to starting a Literacy Council. I had the freedom to use my creative talents to create curriculums that were suited to my students needs. I have experience implementing various fundraisers, new educational programs and comm

Carla J - Jacksboro, TN 37757 (40.1 mi) - Science Tutor - $59.50/hr.
I believe all students have the ability to learn. It is my job as the teacher to find out what makes a student "click". I have learned through my experiences that connecting subject matter to a student's interests will ensure the student learns. All students need to feel successful! I have 30 years experience in Elementary Education. I have taught grades 2-8 in a self-contained and block scheduled school. I served as Asst. Principal for 2 years and then moved to a district coordinator's job emphasizing curriculum. I have designed standardized tests for my district using Tennessee's new curriculum standards. I tutored students after school hours for many years with an emphasis on Language Arts and Elementary Math.

William F - Smithville, TN 37166 (42.4 mi) - Science Tutor - $38.00/hr.
I have helped students from my church for the past eight years in math science and english. I have also worked with my sisters first grade students in math. I enjoy working with youth. It is extremely rewarding to watch a child when that " i get moment" happens and their face lights up with pride, happiness and a sense of accomplishment. Try to customize to students intrest in order to keeep attention and make as entertaining as possible. Every child sees things from different eyes. I just teach them how to look. I know that as a student I would hear one explanation that all of a sudden made things so clear and seem so simple. I try to find this for every individual student.

Shana C - Lenoir City, TN 37771 (43.2 mi) - Science Tutor - $42.00/hr.
Teaching is the career that I have envisioned for myself since I was young. I have a passion for helping people, especially helping them learn. I am a very caring, respectful, and motivated person. Children learn in many different ways and may excel in different subjects than their peers. This means that the teacher or tutor must work to find the learning style that works for the student and build upon that. I am committed to taking into account the individuality of each student that I work with. In addition, I also strongly believe that incorporating real-world experiences and the use of artifacts and manipulatives greatly increase students’ understanding and motivation. I am a very motivated and high-achieving person. I recently earned a BA in Psychology with a minor in Elementary Education. I am currently pursuing a MS in Teacher Education while working as an intern in an elemen
