Jessica M - Clinton, SC 29325 (12.6 mi) - Praxis Exam Tutor - $38.50/hr.
I love teaching. I especially love the reaction I get when a student understands a difficult concept they have been struggling with. To help struggling students, we break down difficult concepts into smaller pieces and help them translate difficult scientific jargon and other vocabulary into "regular English". Discovering how these words are broken down allows the students to recognize and translate words in the future. Whenever possible and appropriate, students have hands-on experience in the topic they are studying, and I relate the subject to their own lives. I am enthusiastic about the subjects I teach, I respect my students as young adults, and I do my best to let my students know that I care for them and their futures. I spent my undergraduate career preparing to enter Veterinary School. I love the sciences and I thought this was what I wanted to do. After graduation, howev

Randall K - Greenville, SC 29607 (37.4 mi) - Praxis Exam Tutor - $53.50/hr.
Use of teaching materials is very important in my teaching. There are methods for teaching children to read and to do math that use materials sold by companies. One way to find out about teaching materials to use is to ask people who have home schooled. I started substitute teaching in September 2001 in the Greenville County School District in Greenville, South Carolina. The Greenville County School District uses a computer system to contact teachers to substitute in schools which starts calling substitute teachers at 5:30am on the school day. I taught K-12 all subjects and special ed. In September through December 2005 I substituted at Duncan Elementry School in Duncan, South Carolina K-3rd grade. January through June 2006 I substitute taught at Easley High School in Easley, South Carolina all classes.

paul b - greenville, SC 29601 (39.6 mi) - Praxis Exam Tutor - $35.00/hr.
I will tailor my teaching to the individual student. One thing I've learned in my education program is that some kids learn visually while others learn auditorily, and so on. I believe in critical thinking; that is one skill that is lacking in school and in society generally. The task of the teacher, ultimately, is to get their student to that point, where he or she is challenging his or her mental models or basic assumptions concerning reality, with the tools the teacher has given the student. I've been teaching informally most of my adult life. I earned a 193 out of a possible 200 on a Praxis test that covered content knowledge of my subject area (English literature), and 179 in a comprehensive middle school language arts test, and am enrolled in Capella University, where I'm currently pursuing a master's of science degree in K-12 studies. Teaching has been my passion for a long time.

Patricia G - Greenville, SC 29615 (39.8 mi) - Praxis Exam Tutor - $37.50/hr.
My teaching style is one where I combine the approach that best suits the individual’s personal learning style with proven sound educational best practices. I have had successes with motivating students who usually do not like to read. I have been able to help them by meeting them where they are and then helping them to formulate and meet their own goals. I have high expectations of students; however, those expectations are tempered with a realistic assessment of what the student is actually capable of achieving. I find oftentimes that students are capable of doing a great deal more than they thought they could originally. I am a knowledgeable, experienced and well-trained educator. Students appreciate me because I am firm but fair and down to earth.
Co-workers and administrators have described me as caring and creative. I have become highly effective in teaching strategies during

Julie E - Irmo, SC 29063 (40.1 mi) - Praxis Exam Tutor - $36.50/hr.
I believe to be a good teacher you have to be creative, patient, challenging and persevering. I love working with students who have not had success in school and show them how to reach the goals they have set and taste success. I am good at pin-pointing what motivates students to achieve, and also give them the tools and encouragement to reach their goals. In my ten years of experience as a teacher I have accomplished many things of which I am proud. My second year of teaching I was asked to implement a reading intervention program district-wide. After two years of that, I started a school within a school for at-risk students. The last two years of my career I helped to pilot and then implement single gender classrooms school-wide.
Four years ago I decided to pursue my National Board certification. I have my MAT as well.
In addition to these things, I also sponsored Beta Club
