Brian S. - Gatlinburg, TN 37738 (20.4 mi) - Tutor - $25.00/hr.
I will teach what algebra is really about in five hours, the basics. In engineering, a common phrase is KISS (Keep It Simple Stupid). Give Algebra l a KISS, get all the basics in the book upfront, and do sample problems in each section of the book. You will then understand all the daily mumbo-jumbo of Algebra l, and just need to do more of the assigned practice problems. But you will already know how to do the problems, and why. 35 years of Engineering Experience. Graduate Engineer with Math beyond Calculus lll; however, flunked my 9th grade algebra class. I didn't get it. I have taught both my children Algebra l in only five hours before taking the class, and they both got "A's". I'm not a teacher, but just a parent who didn't get Algebra l, but understand why I didn't get it, and now know how to teach kids how to simply get it. This method also helped my children get "A's" in a

Jonathon E. - Sevierville, TN 37876 (24.7 mi) - Tutor - $35.00/hr.
I like to use the Socratic method, mainly by asking questions and challenging assumptions. In addition, I like to engage those I teach, challenging them to think about what they previously have not considered. I believe in building on successes, and offering constructive criticism, where appropriate. I have mentored various people since 2000, in all types of subjects, including math, science, social sciences, English, writing, literature, and other related subjects. My academic record is very strong, and I believe empowering those I work with every single time. The only pre-requisites are that you have to be willing to learn, and learn how to learn.

Dorothy H. - Asheville, NC 28806 (32.5 mi) - Tutor - $40.00/hr.
My mother is Japanese and I grew up in Japan so I am fluent in Japanese(oral and written). I moved to the United States seven years ago to finish high school and attend college. I graduated from Western Carolina University on May 5, 2012. I worked as student assistant for Professor Ono for a year and a half to learn how to teach Japanese to students. While I was a student assistant, I was responsible for grading homework assignments and was a tutor to students who needed additional help. I also made lesson plans and taught the classes on numerous occasions. Throughout my experience of teaching Japanese I realized that this is something I enjoy greatly.

Ben G. - Asheville, NC 28806 (32.5 mi) - Tutor - $40.00/hr.
I am employed as a Math Tutor at a company in Asheville. Before this, I lived in Raleigh where I worked for several distinguished companies as a Math Tutor. I have taught SAT Math prep at Cary Academy during the last two summers and at Roxboro Community School where I worked primarily as a Spanish Teacher. I like to use examples and cater my lessons to what the student needs to work on (i.e. homework, test-prep). I also differentiate my style based on whether the student learns best through audio, visual, or kinesthetic means. I am a great listener and am able to identify where the student needs help and how to best bolster their academic ability and confidence.

I have experience in all of the fields that are listed. Most of the skills I have acquired were either through learning them during my time at school or through doing personal research because they interested me. I have done some tutoring in the computer/i.t field as a side job. Chess has been one of my favorite things to learn. My experience with chess has been a regional tournament where I made it to the last-round of the semi-finals. I am a very hands-on teacher. I try to help students by showing them how it is done and then letting them practice.

Laura C. - Asheville, NC 28801 (35.8 mi) - Tutor - $22.50/hr.
I am a native German with conservatory training in theatre. Both my training and subsequent career in Europe were of the highest caliber. I studied acting in Berlin at the Ernst Busch Hochschule für Schauspielkunst, and while still in my third year, I was recruited by the Berliner Ensemble, where I worked successfully as a company member for two years. Thereafter I joined Berlin’s Schaubühne, where I worked for another two years, again at the highest level of European theatre. My approach to teaching is informal and fun, with an emphasis on conversation, including diction and pronunciation, colloquial speech and idioms, as well as public speaking and culture. What I have to offer would be especially useful for anyone with a working knowledge of German who wishes to improve his or her conversation skills, or who wishes to gain a deeper knowledge of the culture--in particular the key diffe
