Ychlindria S - Converse, TX 78109 (42.5 mi) - Shakespeare Tutor - $38.00/hr.
I have a truly divine passion for working with children. I will not stop until I have helped your child discover all of his/her academic talents! We all have strengths and weaknesses, and I am available to build upon your child's strengths, and to also drastically improve his/her weaknesses, resulting in a more confident, eager learner. No challenge will seem too big! I believe that with the right guidance, support, and encouragement each child can become an extraordinary student. I look forward to touching as many lives as I can through education. As a student-athlete from the University of Texas at Austin, I understand what it takes to be a well-disciplined, organized, focused, dedicated student. I hold a bachelor degree in Communication Sciences and Disorders, which has allowed me to master a number of areas, including english, math, and science. I have also gained exceptional experi

Erica M - San Antonio, TX 78212 (43.9 mi) - Shakespeare Tutor - $59.50/hr.
I design the lesson to the learning preference of the student. I incorporate technology, visual, tactile and kinesthetic teaching styles. This gives the student the maximum opportunity to learn. If a student is having trouble with reading comprehension there are various skill sets a child learns in order to help with standardized tests. I have experience in that area. An understanding of literary elements can also enhance a child's understanding of literature and reading. The ultimate goal is for the child to be able to read for gaining information, but also understanding of the world and experiences around them and from other people. In my last three years of teaching I was the Inclusion/Resource teacher, however, I also worked with some Life-Skills students, as well as doing some 4th grade co-teaching. I am comfortable in working with at-risk students and understand the importa

Kathleen R - San Antonio, TX 78201 (46.4 mi) - Shakespeare Tutor - $38.50/hr.
As a professional teacher, I see my role as a facilitating educator, supporting adult students in what they need and want to know and learn. It is the teacher's responsibility to serve the education needs of the student in a communicative, patient and enjoyable manner. I believe learning new skills and absorbing new knowledge, in themselves, are two of the greatest joys of life. Essentially, learning is a pleasure. As with all adult education, the actual responsibility for learning is the student's; the teacher creates purposeful lessons, guides, corrects, assesses and, certainly, supports and praises all efforts. Also critical to the success of the student-teacher relationship is mutual trust and respect. I was graduated from the St Louis 4-year Liberal Arts high school, St Joseph's Academy, after which I spent many years in Australia. All my tertiary and teacher's credentials are from

Sean d - San Antonio, TX 78228 (46.8 mi) - Shakespeare Tutor - $38.00/hr.
I have a reputation for making often difficult and recondite literature accessible and appealing, while candidly admitting its rigors. My personal educational philosophy holds that one major obstacle to students' intellectual maturation is their attitude toward difficulty, and I do my best to try and convince them that we ought to welcome such difficulty and that, in doing so, we open ourselves up to the possibility of rapid and dramatic advancement in academic work. I began teaching as an Instructor and Dean's Fellow in Rhetoric and Composition and in English literature courses while a graduate student at the University of Iowa, consistently earning student praise in end-of-course evaluations. I bring the depth and breadth of full baccalaureate majors in Greek, Latin and British literature to my teaching and research, and am adept at assisting students who have not benefited from expos

Amanda W - San Antonio, TX 78213 (47.5 mi) - Shakespeare Tutor - $37.00/hr.
In 2008, as an upper-level English major, I accepted a position with Schreiner University wherein I hoped to use my education in the concentration of composition. For the rest of my college career until I earned my B.A., I tutored fellow students at various stages of the writing process, from conceptualization to polishing. I also met frequently with fellow tutors to discuss researched tutoring theory and tactics. Having achieved great success in this position, my supervisor, the director of Schreiner's Writing Center, also personally arranged much contract work for me with clients of various ages and levels of education. In my experience as a tutor, I have acquired the highly important skill of adaptability. Certainly, particular techniques and strategies such as asking provocative questions are helpful with any student of any age. More importantly, though, I have learned that the be

Marvin C - San Antonio, TX 78250 (51.6 mi) - Shakespeare Tutor - $41.50/hr.
Whether it is in front of a class
of 40 or one-on-one, I have been
endowed not only with the talent
to teach, but also with the
God-given ability to motivate.
Most students hate my guts for the
first week or two because I do not
tolerate underachievement from
anyone, including parents; but
down the line the most frequent
evaluation I receive is, “Mr.
C, you are awesome.”
There is no one who cannot be
motivated to learn something well;
and I always associate what must
be learned with what a student's
passion is or in what he/she is
already interested. My students
do not just learn the subject I
teach. They learn how to learn
and think "out of the box" and
how to become a success. My teaching credentials are in
English and education. However...
At the middle school level and
high school level, I have
taught/tutored English composition,
geography, history, soci
