Tim C. - Cleveland, NC 27013 (16.9 mi) - PSAT Tutor - $30.00/hr.
I have been tutoring for over seven years, starting with my peers in tenth grade. I have tutored a wide range of subjects, from Geometry through Calculus III, from general computer knowledge through utilizing the advanced functions of Microsoft Access. I have tutored people ranging from my peers to people three times my age, to as young as third graders. My motto has evolved into "Helping those who feel they can not be helped" I help guide the student along, having them discover much of the information in a trial and error fashion. I tend to use the questions they are struggling with the most, making similar examples, then walking them through these problems and breaking down the problems until the student understands the how the process works.

Sterling S. - Charlotte, NC 28270 (23.5 mi) - PSAT Tutor - $37.50/hr.
I have always been an honors student and am currently taking the highest levels of math (AP Calculus) and spanish (Spanish 5) at my high school. I am involved in Peer Mentors at my school and have tutored multiple students in a variety of subjects. I have also tutored students outside of school, mostly in math. I love teaching others and helping them to understand concepts that they previously were struggling with. I am very patient and will work my hardest to make sure those I tutor succeed in school. I generally teach through visual aids and through very thorough explanations. If the student doesn't understand the first time I explain something, I will explain it in a different way and will keep explaining it in different ways until he/she fully understands what's being taught. I try my hardest to teach by explaining concepts logically and showing WHY and HOW, rather than simply saying

Meshiyah Y - Huntersville, NC 28078 (5.3 mi) - PSAT Tutor - $40.00/hr.
As a substitute teacher and an aspiring full-time teacher I've been on a journey to obtain my Master's in Education. I have earned my Bachelor's degree in Business Administration. While completing my undergraduate studies I was a tutor for the Omega C.H.A.M.P.S program, tutoring in mathematics. Upon graduation I assumed a position as an academic assistant in the Trio Upward Bound project. I have experience with students of all ages. Teaching gives me a feeling of joy, and when I think back to my younger years and those days in the classroom I remember the teachers who made a difference in my life and I've always wanted to do the same. The reward I get from teaching is feeling like I've made the difference. I love to motivate and challenge students to learn, since I myslef am still a student the freshness of information and knowledge is at my fingertips.

Lorpu K - Huntersville, NC 28078 (6.6 mi) - PSAT Tutor - $36.50/hr.
I recently relocated to the Huntersville area. I recently graduated from UNCW with a degreee in Psychology with a focus on children. Since middle school, working with children has been my passion. I realized my dream after some of my cousins came over to America from the war torn country of Liberia and were having a very hard time adjusting. I was accepted to UNC Chapel Hill's Master's Program for Rehabilitation but declined after fearing it would take me down the path of working with the elderly instead of working with children. I have very extensive experience working with children at camps, researching at UNCW, tutoring foster children, and special needs with Lindley Habilitation services in Wilmington (mainly working with a client having Hunter's syndrome who was learning sign language, etc). I am both CPR and first aid certified. I have used all my knowledge of math (especially st

Diana H - Huntersville, NC 28078 (9.4 mi) - PSAT Tutor - $32.50/hr.
I have a passion for teaching and have built a career of making learning fun, hands-on, and accessible to students of all ages. Every student is different, and I am very good at evaluating a student’s individual needs and tailoring my teaching style to suite him or her. I believe that it is essential to not only teach subject matter, but also to instill in students a love of learning as well as the confidence that they can learn anything if they really try. I take every opportunity to make learning hands-on and interactive. Applying subject matter to current events and students’ lives is essential to their development and appreciation of learning. My overall goal is to be a positive influence in every student’s personal and educational development. During my formal college education I acquired a very broad knowledge base in the sciences and social sciences. I have 7 years experienc

Xue Susan B - Charlotte, NC 28262 (10.2 mi) - PSAT Tutor - $37.00/hr.
I am driven to help others especially through education. I have a BS in Biology and Chemistry from Duke University which allowed me to have in depth understanding of both subjects. Furthermore I have experience tutoring a college bound student with Biology and Pre-calculus, furthermore I have additional tutoring experience in math, reading, language and all areas of the sciences. I believe that education is the key to success and I hope to encourage my students to see the fun and excitement in learning rather than treating it as a task they have to do. I am very creative and patient when it comes to teaching my students. I think all children have natural curiosity and it just needs to be sparked by a patient and fun person. I hope to be that person for my students.

As an HBCU graduate, I was driven to succeed at a very high level.

Heather H - Charlotte, NC 28262 (11.3 mi) - PSAT Tutor - $35.50/hr.
I am of the strong opinion that everyone can learn to read well and can write skillfully. I am patient, fair, and honest. I am willing to focus on one skill at a time or combine and challenge, whichever the student needs at the time to best reach his or her goals. I take pride in the ability to help a student understand concepts that before may have eluded him or her for whatever reason in their general education. I am eager to help students reach their ultimate potential and gain the confidence to continue doing so throughout their lives. Since my student teaching in college, I have been eager to help students not only improve their skills in reading and writing, but to recognize the joy of literature and power of the written word. I have taught grades 6, 8, and 9-12; courses including the IB program for high level students and Read 180 for low level students in the middle school; and,
