Hilary W. - Ludlow, VT 05149 (24.6 mi) - Tutor - $55.00/hr.
Ever since I was in Honors English in high school back in the seventies (yes, I am a "well seasoned" teacher versus "an old teacher"), I knew that I wanted to dedicate my college years to taking every writing and literature class I could get my hands on. Once my composition was chosen as the "model essay" in my English Comp 101 class at Adelphi University, and was read by students for many years after I graduated, I knew that I meant to be a teacher and share my love for literature, writing, and "coloring outside the lines," inspiring students to be reflective, thoughtful and creative readers, writers, thinkers, and speakers. I have over 15 years experience teaching students in grades 5-12 and my greatest asset is teaching students with very diverse skill sets and cognitive abilities. My teaching style is based on student-centered, social-emotional learning, where my core values are focu

After receiving an MBA in Finance in 1988 I was immediately hired by IDS Investments and began a career as a financial advisor. Not long after, I began financing and managing start-up small companies. My focus in the past few years has been as a traditional investment advisor until recently when I transitioned to focusing on retirement plans for employees in the educational and medical fields.

Elizabeth B - Rutland, VT 05701 (7 mi) - Tutor - $36.00/hr.
I fundamentally believe anyone can learn. If a student isn’t grasping a concept, it just means I have to change my style of teaching. So what is my teaching style…anything that helps a student achieve his or her potential. But the one thing I teach all my students is how to find their learning style. Once you know how you retain information you can do anything. How do I summarize teaching in my life? I guess the best way to explain my teaching experience is to tell you a story. As a young girl I wanted to be a teacher. Because of my love of learning I taught all my siblings how to read. I know it is pretty funny but it is a true story. That led to my doing teaching seminars, which led to consulting, which led to training, which led to my working with individuals as a life coach. I have been a CEO, Vice President, Consultant, Senior Broker, Artist, Photographer, Glass Blower, Jew

Mary Ellen G - East Middlebury, VT 05740 (17.2 mi) - Tutor - $36.00/hr.
I truly enjoy teaching children of all ages, as well as adult learners, and I strive to find innovative and creative ways to approach learning for each individual. I always focus on each person's abilities and interests to make the learning experience both productive and enjoyable, and I always look forward to those moments of accomplishment and achievement for each student. People have told me I'm both professional and friendly/approachable, and one of my co-workers has said that patience is my middle name. I have been a foster and adoptive parent for many years, and I have provided classroom and one-on-one instruction to students with many learning styles, both as a parent and as a professional instructor. I have worked with many students, ranging in age from young children to adult learners, including those with special learning needs. I have excellent writing, grammar, and resear

Vesper A - Comstock, NY 12821 (20.3 mi) - Tutor - $42.50/hr.
I am aware of different ways of teaching methods. I like to get to know the student so I can engage his/her mind.I prefer the hands-on method and work from the child's work. I like to exam the child's work to address his/ her need. I found that Spectrum series helpful & websites to help the child's progress. I graduated from SUNY@Oneonta with BS in English. I was going in the field of education but i wanted to graduate on time. After graduation, i was working in the field of retail. I still had the desire to teach so i signed up as a substitute teacher 5 years ago. I love teaching and currently in pursuit of obtaining my teaching certification in the field of 7-12 English.During the past five years, I have tutored a family friend's child. Now, he does not need my assistance because he is doing well in his classes.

David R - Randolph, VT 05060 (23.9 mi) - Tutor - $36.00/hr.
My teaching style is straightforward - proceed from the simple to the complex. It appears most subjects require this approach. I find it both helpful and important to try and relate situations encountered in day-to-day life to the specific subject problems. I earned a BS in Aeronautics and have completed some graduate work in aerodynamics and meteorology. In addition to having given approximately 3000 hours of instruction in aviation subjects, I have authored several textbooks on aircraft design and construction. I've been both a research pilot and a captain on a cargo airline.

Kimberly C - Argyle, NY 12809 (27.6 mi) - Tutor - $35.00/hr.
My approach to teaching relies heavily on the use of modeling. Modeling is a powerful tool in the development of not only writing and language skills, but also in exposing my students to a framework which will allow them to hone their own thought processes and work habits. Incorporating a wide variety of vocabulary-building activities into daily lessons strengthens my students' understanding of the subject area and provides a familiarity with language that will aid them in the ability to express themselves in a much more effective manner. My teaching experience includes a wide variety of situations. I have been fortunate to have had the opportunity to work with children in grades kindergarten, one, two, three and four in a number of educational models, including multi-age groupings, departmentalized models and the traditional classroom. In addition to my work with younger students, I

Marco S - Vergennes, VT 05491 (29.7 mi) - Tutor - $54.50/hr.
I am a Senior Computer Science major at Siena college; my programming experience covers a range of languages, although my strongest is Java. I am currently certified by CompTIA as an IT Technician (A+ Certification), and have built 5 personal desktops over the years for clients. While programming is my main focus in school, I have learned a variety of techniques that bolster that skill, such as Artificial Intelligence design process, and Networking strategies. My experience teaching started when I worked for Northlands Job Corps Academy. The students that I helped usually came to me not for their classwork, but because they held an interest in learned how their computers and personal devices worked. I feel that most learning comes from performing an activity rather than being lectured, so I prefer to give students a chance to perform the work after I show them a few basics (supervise
