Laura S - Las Vegas, NV 89131-4665 (21 mi) - SAT - Verbal Tutor - $37.00/hr.
Over the past fifteen years, most of my teaching skills have been in non-traditional settings. Providing education for diverse age populations in the area of community programs taught me a multitude of instructional strategies. In 2001, the lead special education teacher at a high school asked me to offer assistance. I was able to observe different teaching styles in classroom settings and to provide individual instruction to students with varying learning styles. My most recent position at Total Education Solutions offered me the opportunity to be in a classroom setting. Although my placement was with one child, my presence and skills in teaching and behavior modification called me to work in small groups and with other individual students. I adapted therapies and curriculum in order to fit the needs of the children. Working in conjunction with the Los Angeles Unified School Dist

Douglas S - Las Vegas, NV 89130 (23 mi) - SAT - Verbal Tutor - $35.50/hr.
I have tutored consistently from Janaury 2001 through the school year ending in June 2006. I began tutoring on a volunteer basis in as a Literacy Trainer for reading-challenged adults. Thereafter, I tutored high school students preparing to take the SAT, grammar school students struggling with math and reading and most recently as part of the "No Child Left Behind Act." My strength is math, however I have boosted my grammar skills to align with the the needs of my students. There is nothing quite like the feeling of observing a breakthrough on the part of a young person as they overcome obstacles to learning. My style is gentle and always positive. I keep to a quick pace, never lingering too long in one area. I am well organized and take notes during each session. I do a lot of follow-up and review during each session to reinforce prior study. I am bottom-line oriented. The only

Kris L - Las Vegas, NV 89129 (25.1 mi) - SAT - Verbal Tutor - $36.00/hr.
My teaching style is unique. I make sure that students learn by doing, not by watching me do problems. As a student i always found that the most effective teachers used a style that allowed the student to do problems and ask questions. Today i put these practices to use in my tutoring. I believe that no child is a lost cause and that any child can learn given the right circumstances. I have been a tutor throughout my undergraduate career. I have been employed by a tutoring service as well as independently. I have tutored all levels of high school Mathematics as well as most undergraduate level mathematics courses. I have 3 years experience in these various fields.

I have an extensive background in Mathematics. I earned a BS in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Maryland College Park.

In my tutoring experience, I have worked with a wide variety of students at different learning levels. The teaching style I employ is tailored to the needs of each individual student. With mathematics, I emphasize an understanding of the key concepts underlying individual problems. I have also found that positive reinforcement is an effective tool for helping students who may be struggling with the material.

Lindsay G - North Las Vegas, NV 89032 (27.2 mi) - SAT - Verbal Tutor - $39.50/hr.
Teaching has always been a part of my life. My mother was constantly teaching me, along with my siblings and the twenty other children that ran in and out of our home. I believe strongly in a teaching method that provides encouragement and positivism; one that highlights the good before pointing out the mistakes. My goal is to listen to the child and hear what his or her needs are and where he or she is struggling, and then to actively tackle one issue at a time through creative and interactive activities, problem-solving, and constructive criticism. I believe in children, their innocence, their carefree energy and endless intelligent ideas and innovations. My ultimate goal in life is to make a difference, and children are a great place to start! Growing up my mother ran a tutoring program out of our home. This is where I initially learned the skills involved in tutoring. Ever since I wa

Rhonda G - North Las Vegas, NV 89031 (27.4 mi) - SAT - Verbal Tutor - $42.50/hr.
I am very passionate when teaching students and I strive hard to ensure that every student grasps the material. I implore real-world examples to provide students with background knowledge concerning the subject area. I am patient, flexible, a good listener, and easy to communicate with. At all time, I strive to make the learning process fun but very productive. I also am very good at motivating and challenging students to help them reach the next level. As a teacher, I am driven to help motivate students to reach their highest potential. I am patient and flexible and always willing to help provide examples to help students fully understand the material. I received a Bachelors from the University of Michigan and a Masters degree in Secondary Education from the University of Phoenix. While, at the University of Michigan, I was a writer for the student newspaper.

Rorri B - Las Vegas, NV 89135 (27.6 mi) - SAT - Verbal Tutor - $38.50/hr.
My teaching style is highly influenced by the type of student that I teach. As a teacher of deaf students, my teaching must be very visual and hands-on. I find this lends itself well to teaching students who might be struggling in a regular classroom environment as well. I always begin by activating any prior knowledge a student might have in a given area, then establishing the goals that need to be met, engaging the child with relevant activities, and going from guided instruction to independent practice. Since beginning college in 1994, I have been involved with teaching and/or tutoring students, hearing and deaf. My experience teaching ranges from preschool to high school, typically developing children to those with disabilities, from impoverished and affluent areas. My tutoring has been both with a nationwide tutoring chain, as well as with a privately owned company. I have tut

I graduated from The Honors College at the University of South Florida with a Bachelor of Science degree in chemical engineering (BSChE). The rigor of the engineering curriculum coupled with strong liberal arts and research experiences of The Honors College has provided me with both the technical skills and knowledge to effectively tutor, engage and inspire students. In addition, I have exercised my grammatical and writing skills as the news editor for the college newspaper during my freshman and sophomore years at Miami Dade College. I have been a student leader, and I place a high premium on a quality education. It is my philosophy that an effective tutor not only tutors but also inspires. I am patient and very intuitive. If I sense that a student is trying to mask a weakness in a particular area, I will make every effort to reinforce the concept or idea. I make it a point to identify

Mauricia B - Las Vegas, NV 89115 (30 mi) - SAT - Verbal Tutor - $35.00/hr.
As a teacher/tutor, I take a genuine interest in the particular needs of each student. I make it my mission to not only teach the material but also to make sure my student has a solid grasp of each lesson. I am very fun-loving and love to make learning fun, but I take my job very seriously. I enjoy using a lot of supplementary materials, such as games, music, charts, computer programs, etc. to make learning interactive. It is important for a child to master a particular subject, but even more important than grasping any subject is the art of mastery, or developing the ability to learn. I recently graduated from Pomona College, a liberal arts college ranked 4th in the nation. I received my Bachelors of Arts in Black Studies and minored in both politics and Spanish. Black Studies is an interdisciplinary major and includes such disciplines as literature, art history, history, cultural st
