Michael B - Mattoon, IL 61938 (9.2 mi) - Government Tutor - $38.00/hr.
I am a firm believer in the concept of engagement learning. While teaching, I maintain a very lively and interactive classroom. To me, teaching and learning is not about merely lecturing names and dates to students. Teaching and learning is a linear process where the student and the instructor are engaged in an open dialogue. When there is the introduction of theory presentation, concepts, and empirical material given to students, this information is given in such a way that the students can integrate this information into their own life experience. Hello and thanks for stopping by today. My name is Michael and I am here to help you succeed. I am currently in law school working my way through.
Before moving to Illinois, I lived on the east coast in upstate New York, where I completed a bachelors' degree in Political Science and Masters degree in International Studies. Just last year,

Carl T - Findlay, IL 62534 (10 mi) - Government Tutor - $59.00/hr.
I am 36 years of age with three sons of my own. I have a Bachelor of Arts degree from Eastern Illinois University in General Studies with a Minor in Sociology. I have an Associates in Applied Science degree from Lake Land College in Network Administration. I have worked in many supervisory positions as well. Most recently as the Automated Guided Vehicle Systems Coordinator at Caterpillar Inc. in Decatur Illinois. I have written many reports and essays over the last eighteen years. I have served as a before-and-after school tutor/mentor at the Dieterich Elementary School in Dieterich Illinois. As a computer-oriented person, I can teach the efficient use of Microsoft Word in the writing of essays. I believe that all people fall short of their maximum potential. Finding the right motivation for people is a gift that I have. This is, however, no guarantee of success when dealing with the ind

Anita R - Mattoon, IL 61938 (11.8 mi) - Government Tutor - $40.50/hr.
I believe making the information relevant to the student is important. I like to use humor and real-life examples to keep students engaged. I believe that it is important to know how the child learns to be able to present the material to them in the best manner for them which is what I would base my style on. I obtained Secondary Teacher Certification in Social Sciences. I taught high school and middle school Spanish for two and half years at public schools, and completed my student teaching at an alternative school for juvenile criminals. I was an at home teacher for my school district when children were out for extended periods due to illness. I have completed additional continuing education in working with gifted and special needs children. I enjoy sharing my passion for learning with others and love to see the “light” come on when a student finally understands a concept.

Randy P - Stewardson, IL 62463 (11.9 mi) - Government Tutor - $38.00/hr.
As a student at Eastern Illinois University (EIU) I majored in Accounting and minored in Chemistry and Pre-medicine. This path provided me with a well rounded education, which required me to take many courses in Chemistry, Physics, Math, Biological Sciences, Accounting, Tax, etc. As a student at EIU I was a Lord scholar graduating Summa Cum Laude with an accumulated GPA of 3.94/4.00. When I completed my masters degree my family and I moved to the Saint Louis area where I worked as a CPA and taught accounting and individual income tax at Southwestern Illinois College and Saint Louis University. After moving back to the Neoga, Illinois area I began teaching in the Accounting Department at EIU. My greatest joy as a tutor and professor is to witness the "Ah-ha" moment when the light bulb comes on and the student puts the pieces together and comes to understand the topic, and, perhaps more

I believe that patience and understanding are very important parts of teaching. I believe that it is important to understand an individual's distinct learning style. I work hard to ensure that students are actively engaged in the learning process. It is my philosophy that learning is fun. I strive to make the learning experience educational and enjoyable. I have a Bachelor of Science degree in Psychology with a minor in Sociology. I have always had a passion for learning and helping others. I was a Honors English student and I have a strong interest in reading and writing. I have worked as a seasonal scorer of standardized assesments for a year.
