I have a unique educational background in wanting to be educated but obtaining a degree along the way. My classroom experience is board covering many disciplines and how they connect and overlap.

My appetite for learning only seems to increase as I age. I also have a broad range of work experience that is integrated into my academic experience. My teaching style is adapted to your needs, the topic, and how you learn, so that you can integrate what you are learning at least long enough to pass the class

James K - Hartford, MI 49057 (13.4 mi) - Earth Science Tutor - $39.00/hr.
I enjoy teaching and working with young adults. I am a Christian and I believe in patients, consideration, and encouragemet. Since I was a chemistry/science teacher, I believe in hands on learning and of course discovery. I brought real life experiences into my lesson plans because I have years of experience as a chemist. I used PowerPoint presentations to entertain and keep the students engaged. I believe in the use of "prompting" to help students arrive at the correct answers and take ownership of the results.
My life was changed by a high school teacher who took me under his guidance. He has knowledge, wisdom, and passion for education and Christian values. I will bring, share, demonstrate, and teach these same qualities to you! I taught H.S. chemistry I & II in the Indianapolis area from 2001-2005. Entering college at Western Michigan U, I had plans on becoming a teacher, bu

Michelle H - Hartford, MI 49057 (13.6 mi) - Earth Science Tutor - $34.00/hr.
I traveled for a year with a family and home-schooled their 3 children. The children were in 1st grade, kindergarten, and pre-school and were seriously below grade level in math and reading. In that year, I brought those children beyond grade level in reading skills and comprehension as well as math skills. I have also been a teacher's assistant in 3rd and 4th grade classrooms and have gone through student teaching in the 3rd and 6th grade in order to complete my degree.
I have had most of my experience with the elementary age-group but I also feel confident working through some middle school and high school material. Though I have a degree in classroom education, one-on-one teaching is my heartbeat. I believe it is the highest good for a student's learning. It prevents your student from getting "lost in the crowd" and allows us to focus on his or her needs. My first goal is to deter

Barroni T - Kalamazoo, MI 49009 (25.5 mi) - Earth Science Tutor - $38.50/hr.
As a graduate of Andrews University, I was confronted with the task of completing a degree in the field of Engineering. With diligent efforts and a drive to overcome the academic challenges once faces as a student, I obtained a Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering. With much exposure to technical papers and lab reports, I have acquired exceptional grammatical skills. As a student, I have always indirectly tutored, helping fellow classmates in various subjects. I enjoy teaching children and preparing those who will be the future of our society. Each student learns differently and it is imperative that one’s teaching style must be adapted to the way a student learns. It is the job of the tutor to fully understand the student and the most effective ways for that student to learn so that he may function at his or her full potential.

Nancy K - St. Joseph, MI 49085 (26.3 mi) - Earth Science Tutor - $39.00/hr.
I worked as a teacher's assistant for several years in public schools in Illinois, assisting in K-5 classrooms. I worked at Sylvan Learning Center for 2 years, teaching beginning reading and elementary reading. As I gained experience, I began tutoring students in the school district where I worked.
After several years, I became a fifth grade teacher in a private school where I taught for 5 years. In this position, I worked with students on writing skills, and prepared students for our annual math olympics, science fair, and spelling competitions. I tutored individual 4th and 5th graders after school. I generally give an assessment to find out about individual student needs. When working with younger students, I usually plan a series of activities, and learning games to help reinforce learning. I feel that it is important to develop goals, and would work with classroom teachers

Laurie H - Portage, MI 49002 (27.1 mi) - Earth Science Tutor - $36.00/hr.
In groups, I like to have many examples and participation from the audience. As a manager and mentor, I also prefer to teach a concept and return to it when the student has an opportunity to use it in their work. It is important to be able to adjust your teaching style to the needs of the student, and I love the challenge of being able to do this. I have always loved to learn new things, and as a teenager wanted to be a teacher. I have a B.S. in Dietetics with a chemistry minor, as well as an M.B.A. My role as a dietitian requires the ability to teach all ages groups, with diverse backgrounds and educational levels. After completion of my MBA, I moved into a senior leadership role. In this position, I facilitated strategic planning sessions and tutored staff who were completing BS or MS degrees in English, sciences, quality, writing, and business classes.

Aimee L - Portage, MI 49024 (27.9 mi) - Earth Science Tutor - $36.50/hr.
As a graduate of the Elementary Education program at Western Michigan University, I have been trained to meet the indivdual needs of the student and to fine tune my instruction to best suit their individual learning style. I have five years of Elementary and Middle School teaching experience in which I applied these concepts. I also have experience working with at-risk learners in an urban school environment. This experience has given me techniques to motivate students to learn that otherwise would be unmotivated to learn. I love working with all children. I believe that every child can learn but each child has an individual learning style. I am available to help your child find academic success. I am patient, easy going and respectful. I firmly believe that children learn best through discovery and the right educator can make all the difference in a child's academic success.

amelia l - Kalamazoo, MI 49009 (28 mi) - Earth Science Tutor - $36.00/hr.
I have seen through substituting that there are many children who need extra attention to help them understand a certain subject. Tutoring will allow me to give them the one-on-one they need to learn something that is hard in a classroom setting. I like to connect with the children immediately and try to use examples of real-life situations to guide their learning. I believe a good learning technique is to use the things the children are familiar with and try to apply it to what I am teaching them.
Substitute Teaching has given me experience in teaching on a daily basis with complete different sets of itinerary. Within minutes I have to read lesson plans and quide classes through the instruction provided. I believe that Education is important and that every child can learn with proper instruction and individual time if needed. I am blessed with six children, of which, two are Colle
