Marc B. - Brandywine, MD 20613 (37.2 mi) - SAT - Verbal Tutor - $50.00/hr.
I have been an educator for almost 20 years. I began my teaching career as a substitute teacher and immediately fell in love with teaching children with special needs. Desiring to continue to teach, I finished a Master's degree which gave me the endorsements to teach K-12 children with special needs. Since then, I have taught reading and mathematics to both children with special needs and regular education children at the elementary, middle, and high school levels. As I gained a greater thirst to do more to help children, outside of teaching in the public school setting, I bagan tutoring. Between teacing within the public school and tutoring outside of the public school setting, I gained a great deal of experience when it comes to identifying strategies that cause children to learn and retain what they have learned. After all was said and done, I finally capped my educational aspi

Dr. Tina B. - Brandywine, MD 20613 (37.2 mi) - SAT - Verbal Tutor - $62.50/hr.
I use effective practices, strategies, and resources to inspire and enrich each student's learning. Direct instruction, workbooks, visual aids, computers, math manipulative, hands-on activities, mini-labs, student-centered discussions, one-on-one tutoring and small-group instruction are used to honor various learning styles, students' needs and goals, as well as to ensure they are active learners.
Students participate in small-group instruction, hands-on activities, mini-labs; may use computers for further enrichment and technology-integration; analyze words and stories; make real-life applications to concepts being presented; and customize their own learning environment through student-centered and teacher-led discussions and enrichment activities while receiving caring and effective support and guidance from me! As a person who works with various groups of people, I continuously fi

Lou W - Salisbury, MD 21801 (28.1 mi) - SAT - Verbal Tutor - $38.00/hr.
Public school is not always rigorous enough for gifted students. When instruction fails to keep students engaged, they learn poor study habits. Ideally, students master study techniques before entering college either through school instruction or tutoring. I have writing, public speaking and other communications courses at the university level. I have also worked as an editor for the better part of two decades so I am good at identifying writing problems and helping students to correct them. I am also an enthusiastic student of American history and government and enjoy sharing that subject with students. I believe in the power of positive teaching. I think that most students live up to or down to your expectations. If you expect them to do well, they frequently do. Sometimes all that is needed is for teachers and other persons whose opinions matter to exhibit faith in the student's abili

Mimi B - Seaford, DE 19973 (33.9 mi) - SAT - Verbal Tutor - $39.50/hr.
While completing my masters in Special Education, I have learned creative ways to help children with special needs that I work with. I have designed and coordinated a Resource Center to help students with special needs learn and achieve at their level. I have also designed and implemented a school for children with special needs. I believe that every child has a right to learn. I believe that, no matter what kind of problem or learning disability that student has, that he/she deserves to learn. It is the responsibility, not only of the teacher, but the parents, grandparents, siblings and community to help children receive the best education that they can.
I believe that all children learn differently. Some learn through doing; some through listening; others are a combination. I teach to each child in the way that best helps them to learn.

Sherrell T - Oxon Hill, MD 20745 (48.9 mi) - SAT - Verbal Tutor - $37.00/hr.
I am actually in the process with my students, their victories are my victories. I want my students to be proud of the work that they have done and the achievements that they have made. I give my students the information, I show them how to apply the information through modeling, I practice with them and then I release them to apply the technique themselves. Afterward I assign an project for an artifact that allows them through written words to translate their knowledge to another person. It is my goal to prepare them for life outside of the classroom, failure is not an option. I have a proven success rate in assisting my students in excelling on standardized tests. In the 2007-2008 school year my students achieved double digit gains on the MSAs (Middle School Assessments). Also during my experience I have moved basic and proficient students to advanced levels on the standardized

Alexander L - Milford, DE 19963 (50.6 mi) - SAT - Verbal Tutor - $40.50/hr.
As a teacher I believe that students learn best by doing, so I plan my lessons to engage students with meaningful activities that are mastered with hands on activity rather than teacher lead discussion. I have worked in a wide range of business and educational settings and have worked with students from grade school to adult. When I earned my BS in English, with a thirty credit business minor, I already had fifteen years experience working in a family run retail store. I have since worked a range of jobs including teaching business, computer and English classes. I also worked as a computer systems installer, service manager and office manager. I bring to my teaching a wide range of experience combined with a strong understanding of my subject areas.

Melissa B - Milford, DE 19963 (51.1 mi) - SAT - Verbal Tutor - $38.00/hr.
I believe that education is continuous and requires participation by all involved parties, meaning students must be active and constant participants in their education as well as the teacher. I also understand that no two individuals learn in exactly the same manner causing my methods as a teacher to constantly change to best fit the needs of the individual. All students, children, adults, etc. can learn if given the right environment, support, and encouragement. My goal as a teacher is not only to educate but to give students the tools and knowledge with which to teach themselves in the future. My undergraduate degree of Communication allowed me to use my knowledge and skills of writing, editing, and publishing as a springboard towards my true passion of teaching and working with adolescents. As a public school teacher with six years experience, both in Pennsylvania and Delaware, I have

I am fun and creative, hard working, very patient and level-headed and highly organized. I am highly literate and very articulate. As a high school student I excelled in several Advanced Placement English and Literature classes. In college I majored in anthropology with a focus on linguistics. I also have experience as a private English and reading tutor. Additionally, I feel that my background in experiential and alternative education has given me a unique skill set for working with students for whom a traditional academic approach may not be effective. As an outdoor educator and teacher I have had substantial experience in education and leadership. I find a great deal of fulfillment in teaching new skills and working with students to solve problems and achieve goals. It is my personal philosophy that, given a constructive and nurturing environment, positive role models and an emphasis

Jessica M - Washington, DC 20064 (54.8 mi) - SAT - Verbal Tutor - $43.50/hr.
With regard to my teaching philosophy, it is always my goal to cultivate in my students a more refined sense of writing as a rich, flexible system, and to increase both their facility and confidence in writing effectively. In short, to instill in them recognition of how important it is that they are able to convey their ideas both correctly and gracefully. I am a firm believer that great readers make great writers; this is the primary benefit of Literature and Composition courses. Not only does having an increased familiarity with the literary canon provide a multitude of excellent examples of various styles of composition, argument, and appeals, it also has the potential to lead students to reflect upon the truly inspiring and astonishing accomplishments of humanity. Regardless of the setting, my day-to-day life is that of a teacher. When I am not in the classroom instructing English st
