Statement of Teaching Philosophy
As a student, I have observed that the best teachers were those who cared the most about teaching. This passion is one of the single most important components of effective teaching as it leads to thorough preparation, continuous evolution of teaching skills, and the pleasure of watching students learn. The amount of time that a teacher puts into preparation directly translates to how the students learn. However, a teacher must be able to recognize how students learn best at the group and individual level, and let their lesson plans metamorphose as they interact with their students. The ultimate goal for the teacher is to communicate new information to students, not just memorizing facts, but also to learn how to think. This process can be made more efficient when both the teacher and the students enjoy what they are covering. Combined, these aspects all

SeraLeigh G - Fulton, MO 65251 (42 mi) - Creative Writing Tutor - $36.00/hr.
I am quite fond of children and their amazing desire and ability to learn. I think that education is one of the most important aspect of a child's upbringing and any contribution that I can make would be very gratifying. I think children differ in their learning styles and I am flexible to work with children who are visual learners through diagrams, colors and charts, or with children who are learn through memorization and application. I use a mixture of both techniques in my own learning style and I have a wealth of experience and advice that I am more than willing to give. I am very determined and driven to complete my education in the field on Psychology and then move on the Medical School. Being a Psychology Major has taught me intensive research and presentation skills and has allowed me to be critical and analytic from a scientific point of view. Also, being a Spanish minor, I have

Richard P - O'Fallon, MO 63366 (45.6 mi) - Creative Writing Tutor - $37.00/hr.
I am a very patient teacher who treats students with respect. It is my goal to reach all learners and meet their needs from all ability levels and cultural backgrounds. I involve students in the learning process by giving them choices and input in project development, technology integration and enrichment/acceleration. I have taught elementary school for 16 years. One year in the Lincoln Country School District and 15 years in the Rockwood School District. I have taught grades 1,2,3 and 5. I served as grade level chair in each grade level, on all subject area commitees, and as teacher's representative to the PTO. I have tutored students for the before and after school program.

Stephanie O - Saint Peters, MO 63376 (49.5 mi) - Creative Writing Tutor - $36.00/hr.
There is nothing more rewarding than helping a child fulfill his or her potential. I enjoy helping kids achieve their goals and not only learn, but grow as learners. I believe children learn best through doing. I, myself, am a visual learner and try to provide ways for kids to learn based on their individual learning styles. I have a good sense of humor and a strong sense of fairness. I care deeply for the children I teach. I am an experienced teacher that has taught secondary English and journalism for the past 13 years. I have six years of experience teaching Advanced Placement English composition with a 60% pass rate. During my years of teaching I have also taught American and British Literature, Speech, Composition, Creative Writing, Journalism, junior high language arts and keyboarding. I am also very knowledgeable of computers and various programs. I briefly worked for a co

Patti G - St. Charles, MO 63304 (50.2 mi) - Creative Writing Tutor - $36.00/hr.
I have enjoyed a successful career in sales for well over 20 years.
In my sales career, I was involved with training of new and prospective employees. This involved showing them all aspects and functions of their jobs, along with utilizing exceptional communication skills, both verbally, and in writing.
I was also involved in the hiring and firing process at times.
I have learned that, with persistence, perserverence, the desire to learn, that just about anyone can achieve what they want in life.
It makes me proud when a new employee strives for excellence, and I hope that they always continue growing, both personally and professionally.
It is a priviledge to be a part of that experience. I teach each person on an individual level.
There are several reasons behind this. Some of them are: people have different strengths and weaknesses, people learn at quicker/slower r
