Phyllis B - Spring Mills, PA 16875 (12.8 mi) - Literature Tutor - $42.00/hr.
I have always desired to be a teacher. I graduated from Penn State in 1981 with an English degree and a music minor. I have since continued to take classes in both English and Music Education. I have taught all grades, tutored individuals and groups in summer school, and have a private studio as a music teacher. I have tutored students with reading difficulties for 20 years. As an English teacher, I have taken students on trips to see Shakespeare in the Park and to Pattee Library to learn to use reference materials. As a Music teacher, I have created performance opportunities for students from a coffee house format to recitals for the elderly. I believe in inspiring students to learn by empowering them to use their gifts. I teach students in an informal manner. My individual students call me Phyllis. I welcome questions, and if I do not have an immediate answer, we will look up t

Silas G - Selinsgrove, PA 17870 (39.7 mi) - Literature Tutor - $40.50/hr.
I was employed as a Writing Tutor at my university, giving me the experience necessary to know how to direct and assist peers on an individual level. To obtain this position, it was required that I show a high level of proficiency in the field, both with my major GPA and the quality of my writing portfolio.
Further along this line, I graduated from Susquehanna University with both a degree in Creative Writing and considerable experience in the writing and publishing world. I have worked in detail on the design and development of numerous journals, magazines, and chapbooks and have a keen eye written detail and quality. I always tried to keep my approach as grounded as possible so that even my least talented tutees could grasp the task at hand. For instance, I feel it important to always sound out the words on a page, making sure the words flow smoothly off the tongue and not just in th

Sarah R - Altoona, PA 16602 (48.4 mi) - Literature Tutor - $39.00/hr.
As a recent graduate of a private liberal arts institution with a degree in Medieval and Early Modern Studies and a concentration in pre-medical courses, I have a diverse and extensive understanding in several areas of study, both in the humanities and the sciences. Having completed a senior thesis as well as various essays in all disciplines, I feel that I have a commanding grasp of the English language and superior writing skills, and the proper knowledge needed to tutor in several areas. I have always enjoyed tutoring children; in high school, I actively participated in a youth tutoring program, but I also feel very comfortable tutoring older students and adults. My goal is to provide any knowledge and experience I can to help a student reach his or her highest academic potential, and through patient instruction and self-discovery, I hope to make a difference in the educational lives

Rebecca L - Dauphin, PA 17018 (51.8 mi) - Literature Tutor - $35.00/hr.
What tools I use in the classroom really depends on the student's learning style and course material. Some individuals learn by performing tasks, while others learn by reading or hearing the material to be learned. I use a variety of methods depending on the course such as: PowerPoint, Internet, Lectures, Whiteboard, Student Presentations, and individuals within the community to discuss their current views on health care and their roles in Medical Billing/Coding.
