Whitney L. - Bloomington, IL 61701 (18.4 mi) - Poetry Tutor - $30.00/hr.
I will adapt my teaching approach based on the needs and learning styles of the student - with language, I favor a practice-based environment, both teaching grammar and theory, but always putting the new skills in to practice with each session. I have extensive knowledge and specialization in French language and English literature, with previous experience teaching both. I have worked as a teacher of English as a Second Language at two elementary level schools in Paris, France, as a private French tutor, and as an elementary writing/composition tutor. I am currently working on my final year to receive my bachelor's degree at Illinois Wesleyan University.

Darrell B - Bloomington, IL 61704 (14.8 mi) - Poetry Tutor - $35.50/hr.
My teaching style is very hands on. I enjoy working with students and sharing a balanced approach to learning. I believe people learn through various styles of teaching. My job as a teacher is to help the student identify their learning style and implement that style to reach success in every area of life and learning. I love making a difference in the lives of people, I see teaching as a reward with an immediate impact! As an MBA graduate I have a high level understanding of core business practices and principles. I have a finance and marketing concentrated MBA which allowed me to develop my writing and mathematical skills equally. In 2005 I graduated with a Bachelors degree in Communication and minors in psychology and marketing. I also have 3 years experience with small businesses. My teaching experience includes working part time as a substitute teacher for District 87 in Blo

Amanda S - Dwight, IL 60420 (32.6 mi) - Poetry Tutor - $34.50/hr.
I achieved my M.Ed. from American Intercontinental University where I held a 4.0 GPA. The classroom and hands-on experience gave me the knowledge and experience needed to face the demands of educators today.
During the last four years, I worked mostly with adult learners, but a few high school students. I worked mostly in corporate training and development, but the high school students afforded me the opportunity to tutor in research, reading comprehension and composition. I have helped adult learners refine their sills in executive level composition for email, public speaking and reporting. While I like students to know that I am an expert in my subject field, I also want them to take the opportunity to learn critical thinking skills. I want them to gather information, ask questions and break things down to a level that makes sense for them. With that being said, I believe I hav

Yanhuan R - Urbana, IL 61801 (34.2 mi) - Poetry Tutor - $55.00/hr.
My pre-medical school coursework allowed me to gain conceptual and hands-on understanding in the areas of inorganic chemistry, organic chemistry, physics, and biology. In addition to my scientific training, I enrolled in the Honors program with a concentration on Western Civilization. The curriculum that the Honors program offered took me through the writings of Homer to the films of Roman Polanski. I have gained extensive experience writing research papers, laboratory reports, book reviews, memoirs, fictional stories, and analytical critiques. During the last three years I have volunteered my time tutoring international students English. My class sizes ranged from 20 students to one-on-one sessions. I love teaching and working with children and adults alike. Everyone can learn; it is up to the teachers to find out how their students learn best. I was 14 years old when my younger

Chelsea W - Urbana, IL 61801 (35.1 mi) - Poetry Tutor - $35.00/hr.
As a child I loved to read and write. In High School I took the AP exams for both English Language and English Composition, scoring a 4 and a 5. It was a natural choice for me to major in English when I started my college career. While working on my degree I already knew I wanted to teach, so I began tutoring. I tutored two Korean families over two years, helping the children (ages 9, 12, 14, & 15), with their school subjects, and with their English grammar, vocabulary, pronunciation, comprehension, and writing skills. I graduated May 2010, a member of Sigma Tau Delta (an English Honor Society), and Phi Beta Kappa (a national Honor Society), and with the Summa Cum Laude honor. I have always loved working with children. My teaching style is friendly, and casual, but still quite demanding. I try to create a comfortable and fun tutoring environment, but within that environment I chal

Amber M - Metamora, IL 61548 (41.4 mi) - Poetry Tutor - $39.50/hr.
I love the process of really getting to know a student on an individual level. That is crucial to determine their learning style and their strengths. It is incredibly rewarding to experience a student's progression and also to learn from them in ways you wouldn't expect. I believe children should feel comfortable in an academic setting and believe that they can succeed. It is important to help students develop a positive attitude towards life long learning. I have had a passion for education since I was a third grade student. I always thought I wanted to be a teacher "when I grew up." I earned a BA in psychology and started a Master's program in elementary education. Due to personal circumstances, however, I was not able to complete the program. I then taught early childhood and continued to volunteer in schools. I now work in the education department at Bradley University. I m
