Rachel F. - Winterport, ME 04496 (26.7 mi) - Earth Science Tutor - $18.00/hr.
Every since I was little, I realized that I wanted to help others. I taught a bunch of young female children about field hockey. I have tutored my cousins in all of the areas listed and it helped them with their studies and their education. While I tutor, I like to have music playing in the background softly. I am available during the academic school semesters and the rest of the remaining summertime. I do have a full time job, and the only time that I am available now would be after 1 pm to about 6 pm throughout the week and weekend. I am more of a hands on,and mainly a lot of visuals as well as worksheets. Sometimes I use music, artists, sports and current events as a reference.

Eddie P - orono, ME 04473 (11.7 mi) - Earth Science Tutor - $36.50/hr.
My teaching style is structured with my following a pre-determined outlined agenda which ordinarily would have an area designated for issues that the students wish to raise. Here is an example of my preferred prelab lecture:
call class roll/roster
my name
course name and number
priorities of the course
problems I recognized while grading previous assignment
give floor open to students for questions or issues
the lab concept for today's lab
demonstrate lab techniques/relevant calculations if necessary
give floor open to students for issues/questions
start lab All of my teaching experience in chemistry comes from my teaching General Chemistry Labs while pursuing Graduate Studies. This experience relates to my issuing pre-lab lectures prior to lab starting and this basically was designed to summarize the lab and work through example problems or demonstrations.

Bryan W - Lincoln, ME 04457 (19.1 mi) - Earth Science Tutor - $39.00/hr.
For the past two years I have worked as a teaching assistant for the University of New Brunswick within the duration of my MSc. in Geology. I have taught and aided students within the lab sections of Introduction to Geology, Biogeology, Sedimentology, and 2nd year Field School. I am a firm believer in the value of a good education and encourage students to learn everything they can about a subject. I have a variety of experience in multiple disciplines within natural science and am currently a Geology MSc candidate at the University of New Brunswick and will be defending my thesis in Summer of 2010. For the past two years I have had a large exposure to both field and lab work surrounding Fe-Mn Deposits and worked as a teaching assistant.
Since November of 2008, I have authored five published abstracts and extended abstracts for both Canadian and American conferences and served as a tec

Brent C - Bangor, ME 04402 (19.4 mi) - Earth Science Tutor - $37.50/hr.
As a graduate from one of the top Liberal Arts schools in New England, I helped tutor college students in English Composition for one semester. Before I changed my major, I was Secondary English Education, which translates into training to be a high school English teacher. I substituted and did my practicum which gives me about a year's worth of experience. I have a passion for reading and writing that I would love to share with a struggling student or students. I also play multiple instruments and could help teach that as well. I love creating a sense of wonder and exploration as well as critical thinking. I like to incorporate the children's interests into what it is they are trying to study. I am patient, understanding, and approachable. I believe that teachers are overworked sometimes in classroom settings and that some students get overlooked when they need a little more time to gra

Deanna K - Bangor, ME 04401 (19.5 mi) - Earth Science Tutor - $35.00/hr.
Working with people, particularly children, has always been a passion of mine. Through the psychology program at Husson College I was able to gain a better understanding of human interaction, interpersonal relationships, as well as to obtain further insight on the foundation of the cognitive wiring in which we all possess. I also have a 6 year old daughter, who I have found to be the key to my drive in watching all children achieve academic success. I think the process starts with parents but branches out into the world of educators, and truly is a battle that can be won as long as there is always a core group of people committed to each child's success in the classroom. As a current graduate student I have had the opportunity to learn a great deal about the effective techniques and skills it takes for one to succeed within the classroom. I have so far earned my BS in Clinical Psychology

Johanna S - Trenton, ME 04605 (37.3 mi) - Earth Science Tutor - $34.00/hr.
Children learn in different way, and have different levels of enthusiasm for different subjects. I think that the way to encourage a child's success is to identify the ways in which the students learns best, and to understand what subjects/topics interest them. If you can relate to a child, your ability to motivate them and encourage them is amplified. I like to challenge students and to encourage them to think on their own. I believe positive reinforcement is important to children whose self-esteem might be low due to perceived lack of academic ability. Through my studies in Environmental issues and Landscape design, I have taken many writing-intensive classes, science courses and geography courses. As a graduate student, I spent significant time writing and focusing on grammatical topics of technical writing. Also, I have several years of experience working with young students as an ed
