Jonathon E. - Sevierville, TN 37876 (20.3 mi) - Public Relations Tutor - $35.00/hr.
I like to use the Socratic method, mainly by asking questions and challenging assumptions. In addition, I like to engage those I teach, challenging them to think about what they previously have not considered. I believe in building on successes, and offering constructive criticism, where appropriate. I have mentored various people since 2000, in all types of subjects, including math, science, social sciences, English, writing, literature, and other related subjects. My academic record is very strong, and I believe empowering those I work with every single time. The only pre-requisites are that you have to be willing to learn, and learn how to learn.

Dan M - Morristown, TN 37814 (10.9 mi) - Public Relations Tutor - $35.50/hr.
With my numerous experiences in education, I think I could be a great asset in helping students become more knowledgeable. I have worked as a Tutor, Assistant Teacher, and did a short placement as an Interim Teacher. I can easily adjust to changing environments that will best suit the student’s potential. I was a Tutor in an after school program, and was an Assistant Teacher in a Special Education classroom. I finished an Interim Teaching placement in a middle school A.P. English classroom. I have a somewhat relaxed teaching style that does not compromise the distinction or respect between student and teacher. This teaching style results in a classroom atmosphere where students feel comfortable responding to my questions and asking for further clarification about complex topics. Many students have told me that my teaching style is refreshing and they feel comfortable in class.

Jason W - Knoxville, TN 37914 (19.9 mi) - Public Relations Tutor - $36.00/hr.
The teaching style that brings the best success I've found is centered on two points. First of all, it is based on listening, which means getting the student to talk. Eventually, with guidance, I aim to get them the ability to talk through and solve any problem. The second major technique I like to use is analogies. Even complicated subjects can be simplified into their core components which are easy to understand if taught as an analogy to something more familiar in daily life. Just as the Bible uses parables or employers use phrases from team sports to explain team roles, I find lots of success by using analogies. My specialty is reading, writing and research. I have a bachelor's degree from the University of Texas, where I studied government, law and economics. I believe most students can learn or solve any problem by talking it through, which is often easier and more effe

Ronald W - Knoxville, TN 37920 (21.1 mi) - Public Relations Tutor - $49.50/hr.
I very much enjoy training and teaching because I understand how valuable information can be. I have 5 children of my own and get great joy helping them learn and understand things and how they can be applied to everyday practical applications in life. I try to initially gather a persons level of understanding so that I may teach at the level that is easily understood and fits with the knowledge level of the group or individual. I have worked in management, human resources, and currently I am employed in the technology sector. I utilize math and statistical analysis on a daily basis. I have extensive grammatical skills due to report preperation,presntations, and training. I have presented presentations and training for groups up to 1500 persons and I am very well spoken and articulate. During the progression of my career path I have found listening to be one of my best skills so th

Robert P - Knoxville, TN 37917 (22.4 mi) - Public Relations Tutor - $47.00/hr.
I'm a very laid back casual sort of fellow that likes to make someone think about how to solve problems efficiently. I won't just blurt out an answer to a question hoping they pick up, hands on working through a problem is the best way I've found to solve computer problems. Teaching the student "where" to look to find answers is big help too, there is reference material out on the web for ANY business related task you can think of. I have 20+ years of real world business IT experience. Most of that was programming on IBM iSeries/AS400 mini computers in RPG or COBOL. The last 6 or 7 years has been devoted to learning HTML & PHP in my spare time. The languages aren't important, what is key is learning to break complex tasks down into smaller chunks and think logically about how to link all these smaller tasks into a program to accomplish the overall goal.

Angelia J - Knoxville, TN 37920 (23.1 mi) - Public Relations Tutor - $40.50/hr.
We are all individuals and as such will have our own, unique styles of learning. My job as a tutor/mentor/teacher is to uncover that and foster the growth of such.
I am skilled at promoting creativity, creating a fun learning environment, setting achievable goals, and developing a sense of accomplishment in a student. I balance patience with clear expectations; I view a tutoring relationship as a partnership. After assessing the needs and goals of the student, we will work together to form a plan to achieve short-term and long-term goals. During my college years, while earning a degree in journalism, I tutored college-level English composition; this is when I first discovered the joy of helping someone learn something and “seeing the light come on” for them.
I have spent the last twenty years of my professional career in not-for-profit work, almost entirely devoted to programs

Lance T - Knoxville, TN 37912 (26 mi) - Public Relations Tutor - $37.00/hr.
In working with students one needs to have the ability to connect with that student at their level of understanding. This can be different for every student, and the tutor needs to adjust to the student. A tutor has to be able to do this or the student will not be any better off. It is my firm belief that I need to find a way to connect with each student, and find a way to help them understand what they need to learn. Very often in a school setting it is not only the subject matter that can give students a tough time, but a lot of times it is that the student either freezes on tests and quizzes or may not have good test taking skills, and sometimes this needs to be learned as well as a particular subject. I received my BS in Accounting 1988. While getting my degree I was involved in the on campus tutoring program. I have tutored students in, accounting mathematics, philosophy, marketin

JR L - Knoxville, TN 37922 (32.3 mi) - Public Relations Tutor - $38.00/hr.
I love the give and take of working with high school students. I relish hearing fresh, young opinions and seeing how they decide what they believe in and why. My style entails showing a student the relevance of what he or she is doing. It is important for a child to know WHY what they are supposed to be learning is so important; they need to know how it will help them years from now after the classes are over. My best quality as a teacher is my ability to connect on a level that is comfortable for my students. We tend to enjoy talking about movies and music before and after classes, and I like to think knowing what they are listening to and watching helps me see where they are coming from. At the University of Tennessee every student is expected to fulfill certain core curriculum requirements in any degree program. As an AP student in high school, I tested out of U.S. History and freshm

Aaron M - Waynesville, NC 28786 (42.9 mi) - Public Relations Tutor - $36.00/hr.
It is my belief that every student yearns to acquire an education. Accordingly, it is the responsibility of the instructor to find that spark and create a learning regimen geared towards that students specific method of learning. I tend to lead by example in an effort to relate to the student. I find that this method of operation creates a sense of willingness from the student, as well as establishes a sense of trust. As a graduate from UNC Charlotte, I was blessed with the opportunity to earn a B.A. in English, as well as a professional certification in techncial writing and editing, which has afforded me both knowledge and experience in both journalism and technical media. In addition, I have acquried extensive grammatical skills due to writing research papers, as well as conducting articles which were seen by more than 30,000 subscribers nationwide at my previous publication
