Lindsay W. - Woodland, MS 39776 (31.3 mi) - Poetry Tutor - $40.00/hr.
I graduated from high school in 2011 with special honors and as co-valedictorian. I am now attending the University of Mississippi where I am majoring in accountancy and minoring in business. My passion is writing, so naturally that is what I do best. Every year, I am contacted by numerous students from my high school and also my classmates at Ole Miss about proofreading their papers. I have also worked with helping students study for math classes, including but not limited to pre-algebra and algebra. My best subjects have always been English and math, but I am efficient in all high school level courses with the one exception of science, which has always been my weakness. I am very outgoing and thoroughly enjoy helping others learn. Please contact me via email at lpward@olemiss.edu and I would love to assist you in any way I can!

I emphasize student engagement when I tutor.

John Wylee R - Columbus, MS 39705 (9.6 mi) - Poetry Tutor - $32.50/hr.
I have spent the better part of the past 12 years teaching grammar, creative writing, literature, and basic English structure. I have my BFA in Creative Writing and my BA in English from Arkansas Tech University, and I have my MA in English from Highlands University. I have taught all levels of college composition, creative writing, and American Lit. Also, I have taught English at the high school level. Also, I have a minor in American History. I believe in personal interaction with students – making them write, making them read – going over every detail, looking at the issues (grammar, punctuation, syntax, coherent structure (logic, unity, transitions, parallelism,)) and then re-writing and re-reading. The key to doing well in English is understanding basic structure and making it become second nature when writing. Through personal interaction, the process can be simplified by wor

Aliya B - Columbus, MS 39705 (12.5 mi) - Poetry Tutor - $39.50/hr.
Throughout my teaching career, I have worked continuously to provide individualized, innovative lessons and challenging curriculum designed to empower students to reach their full academic and social potential. I believe that the best way to do this is through first discovering each student's learning style and then tailoring instruction to make full use of those skills. In this way, the student is always involved and engaged in instruction designed just for him/her. I find no greater joy than in witnessing the excitement when a student finally "gets it!" I am currently certified in Mississippi, and I have 5 years of experience teaching in the classroom. I received my Bachelors in Education with an English concentration from William Carey University in Hattiesburg, MS. I have the background and skills necessary to tutor students in English, SAT and ACT prep, ASVAB, and GED testing, along

Shileria R - West Point, MS 39773 (15.4 mi) - Poetry Tutor - $33.00/hr.
I have taught as an English Instructor at East Mississippi Community College and Mary Holmes College. I taught several courses. Developmental I and II were very basic grammar and writing courses. Composition I and II were courses that introduced students to writing essays and the research paper.
In addition, I have also taught English as A Second Language at Mississippi State University and Greater Columbus Learning Center. I taught grammar, reading, phonics, vocabulary, and conversational English.
I also worked at RTP for a year as a GED tutor. I tutored math, social studies, and language arts. I also worked with students who were studying for the ACT. I believe that every student deserves a quality education, and it is my responsibility not just to lecture or impart information, but to ensure that students gain a fundamental understanding of the material being presented.

Joshua B - Starkville, MS 39759 (25.4 mi) - Poetry Tutor - $31.00/hr.
I love teaching and working with all children. My experience as a tutor has taught me how to help your child find academic success and my experience as a camp counselor and youth group leader has taught me how to relate to your child so that I can teach him or her how to learn in an enjoyable and effective manner. My experience has taught me to be patient, easy going, and considerate. I believe all children can meet their potential if they are given the appropriate surroundings and learning experiences. It is my goal to provide the necessary surroundings and experiences so that I can make a difference in your child's life. As a Mississippi State University graduate, I was very much driven to achieve a high level of excellence in education. I have earned a BS in Biomedical Engineering, which has enabled me to become proficient in many areas of math and science. In addition, I have

Jeffrey A - Starkville, MS 39759 (26.1 mi) - Poetry Tutor - $34.50/hr.
My teaching style varies based on the age of the student. I like to be a little more animated with my k-6 graders. On the other hand, with my 7-12 graders I focus more so on making a connection with the material--showing them how it relates to them. I have always enjoyed assisting our youth work through various academic endeavors. I have been tutoring grades k-12 for several years now. I have helped all ages with a wide variety of assignments.

I have been out of college, working in the IT industry for about 8 years now. While in college, I tutored fellow students in the school's lab in the subjects of English and Mathematics.

Rebecca C - Tupelo, MS 38801 (35.9 mi) - Poetry Tutor - $32.50/hr.
Students have many different learing styles. I always like to pay attention to my students and learn their individual learning style. It is important to differentiate for the benefit of the students.

Stephanie D - macon, MS 39341 (38.9 mi) - Poetry Tutor - $32.50/hr.
As a graduate of a small junior college I believe one on one teaching gives students the advantage over a large group because the child can receive the necessary attention for learning skills in reading, writing and math. Many children learn differently some are visual learners,some are audio etc. I have been instructed through various techniques in reading with chilldren that will help them achieve a higher reading level of success. I am a hands on person where math is concerned allowing the child to use mannipulatives. Taking time to explain until they understand. In reading we can do shared reading and other techniques. I have a great joy working with children because most of them are eager to learn. Along with patience and proper instruction I am a firm believer the scores will be achieved without the child feeling diappointed. I believe through visual picture walks and other tech

Claudia M - Northport, AL 35476 (50.4 mi) - Poetry Tutor - $39.00/hr.
My teaching style has been part lecture, part class discussion, part in-class assignments, and some cooperative education, with the more advanced students being leaders in groups of 5-6 students. I enthusiastically guide and encourage my students to learn about literature, grammar, history, and the finer points of public speaking. I have received nine teaching awards in my thirty years of being an educator. The excellent teacher will learn from her students almost as much as her students learn from her: the subject matter may be the focus, but interacting with others and accepting their differences is very important in a wonderful education. I have taught in private high schools and colleges,as well as public high schools and universities for the past thirty years. I have a great passion for teaching and mentoring, with an emphasis on preparing students for college. My thesis in Engl
