Daniel O - Battle Creek, MI 49014 (18.6 mi) - Drawing Tutor - $34.00/hr.
My teaching experience began with my work with troubled youth in Michigan. I worked with the Fine Arts Team using the arts to teach visually. I also used positive Peer Culture for helping students to deal with their problems. I slso taught history at the school. I have 8 years experience; I worked for WSI teacher staffing for 3 yrs. and 5 yrs. for the Battle Creek School System in grades K-12 in most subjects I create a positive atmosphere and help students to be responsible
first to themselves and then to their community. I also try to make my students aware of their potiential and guide them in processing information by first understanding the context in which it is used. Then I like to use visuals in my teaching style. I prefer to start with testing of some kind to assess the developmental level of the student.

Darcey F - Battle Creek, MI 49015 (20.6 mi) - Drawing Tutor - $40.00/hr.
As a teacher I believe it is my job to facilitate student learning by providing access to information through various sources, address different learning styles, use a variety of teaching strategies, and provide the time for students to develop the skills and knowledge essential for learning to occur. A variety of lesson plans, instructional materials, and teaching strategies are essential for today’s classrooms. Each student is a unique individual with numerous strengths and the potential for wonderful things. As an educator I believe it is essential that I use a student’s strengths to enhance their classroom performance and maximize their potential. I have been at Pennfield High School for almost 6 months now and I have learned how to incorporate the new standards into the curriculum. I am currently teaching part time in the Mathematics department, teaching the subjects of Geometry

Heather S - Battle Creek, MI 49014 (21.6 mi) - Drawing Tutor - $36.50/hr.
As a current student at Central Michigan, I continue to strive for the best education I can possibly achieve. I have clepped out or aced all english classes at the college level and have found a great interest in writing and reading papers and essays. I am extremely familiar with both APA and MLA writing styles and have had numerous hours and years of practice writing papers and essays for my college level courses. I received a 1 on my MEAP writing and a 30 on my ACT writing/English section. Al though I have never technically tutored or taught a child writing, I am interested in helping aid a child's learning experience. I am extremely personable and social, and would get along great with any child. I am patient, understanding and eager to provide my extensive knowledge of writing to those that need help.

Sarah G - KALAMAZOO, MI 49001 (33.9 mi) - Drawing Tutor - $37.00/hr.
I believe that teaching styles need to be flexible to the student. I have worked with a very wide variety of students, from the severely limited autistic youth to the highly gifted medical student. While approach and focus might vary for the individual or subject matter the essence remains the same. I try to envision at least 3 different ways of approaching a problem, I discuss material but let the students ask questions which I then tailor my explanations toward. Everyone sees a problem slightly differently and if you allow yourself an open mind and creative thinking often you can help them break through a difficult problem because you are able to see it their way. I have spent the better part of my life either in school or teaching in one form or another. I highly value both the process of learning and of passing on my knowledge. I have intend to make this my life's work and as such ha

Janet S - Kalamazoo, MI 49007 (35.6 mi) - Drawing Tutor - $37.50/hr.
Opening doors and creating joy in learning is what I genuinely enjoy about teaching. Leading my students to see the world and themselves in new ways is one of the most satisfying aspects of the task. I teach with humor and compassion, but encourage self discipline and striving for personal best in each of my students. I believe that every person has the capacity to learn and teach critical and analytical skills, because the ability to think is the fundamental ability in all learning situations. I am an Ivy League Graduate with Doctoral level graduate Studies from Indiana University. My minor for each of my study areas is Psychology. I have taught multiple subjects in academic, corporate, public service, K-12, and Emergency Medical Services and have been in training and education all of my professional career, currently tutoring in the Kalamazoo Public School systems.

Robert F - Kalamazoo, MI 49006 (36.4 mi) - Drawing Tutor - $34.50/hr.
As a graduate of the Gwen Frostic School of Art at Western Michigan University, I was given the opportunity to create art in a recently built, state of the art facility. I started college straight out of High School in 2005 and completed my degree in just over four years. I was awarded the Art Star award for the painting program, I also received a scholarship from the school for the advancement of photography and painting. In the summer of 2009 I taught summer camps at the Kalamazoo Institute of Arts teaching kindergarten through middle school. As an Art Educator I enjoy exploring different creative processes with children. I am able to teach art in its most rudimentary forms and teach with a very technical approach. I understand each child is different and I am able to accommodate for such diversity. I am enthusiastic and love teaching children and teens how fun making art can be.

Randi M - Kalamazoo, MI 49006 (36.7 mi) - Drawing Tutor - $38.00/hr.
I enjoy breaking difficult subjects into more easily-processed steps. I am willing and able to work with students who are disillusioned and frustrated. I strongly believe that anyone can succeed and approach any subject matter. Tutors, teachers, and parents need to look beyond present hurdles and see the ability that resides in all students to succeed and be confident. Once children see their work start to pay off they develop self-esteem and self-esteem enables them to start taking on more and more challenges. This affects their academics as well as other areas of their lives. As a recent graduate of the Comparative Religion MA program at Western Michigan University I am eager to begin a career in the field of academics. I believe that tutoring would be a great way for me to develop my teaching skills and also to share the knowledge that I have had imparted to me from important me

Toby W - Kalamazoo, MI 49009-1801 (37.2 mi) - Drawing Tutor - $40.50/hr.
I believe that all students have an individualized learning style and I like to find that out first. I make a learning plan based on the student's needs and develop strategies for teaching based on the learning style assessment. I have been a Reading Interventionist for my local school district and left that job to complete my student teaching. I have been tutoring for about 4 years and have working knowledge of helping students with special needs learn.

Mallory G - Defiance, OH 43512 (49.6 mi) - Drawing Tutor - $39.50/hr.
Although, I have never been in charge of my own class room I consider my teaching style energetic. I love working with students of all ages and find that teaching methods and styles tend to adapt to those individual students. I think it is important to be encouraging and patient with all students. I believe in a hand on approach where students learn from experiences and doing rather than being lectured. As an educator it is my job to get students involved in their own learning and excited about the knowledge that will shape their futures. Although, I am not a certified teacher, I am currently working towards obtaining my licensure in Language Arts 7-12th grade and have taken several education related classes. I have recently obtained my BA in English and am educated in all of the current trends and graduated in the top ten percent of my class. During my time spent at Defiance College I h
