Shae V. - Round Rock, TX 78664 (37.4 mi) - Composition Tutor - $40.00/hr.
I've always had strong writing skills. I've written several scientific dissertations and papers to fairly high praise. I don't any paid, professional tutoring experience. However, I have volunteered my services to family members and friends. During my sophomore year, I took Organic Chemistry and excelled. However, my friends were struggling. They hated me a bit for how easy it came to me. I decided to tutor them and help them with homework assignments and studying. They ended up doing very well on the exams, allowing them to secure a 3.0 or higher in the course. I also had to regular help my classmates out with more complex problems in Physics. I was not so much tutoring as working together with them on the homework, but still, it involved clear explanation and a thorough knowledge of the subject matter. I always liked playing up my quirky personality. My favorite teachers and professo

Pooja V. - Round Rock, TX 78664 (37.4 mi) - Composition Tutor - $45.00/hr.
I prefer a very laid back, informal environment when I teach. I can adapt very easily, and only require that my students respect me and try their best. I can help them with the rest I have tutored over 50 children and teens, ages 3-14, in various subjects. With my youngest students, I have helped them improve their reading comprehension and ability markedly. My older students have been teens preparing for college, and as I have done extremely well on my SATs and ACT (scores can be supplied upon request), I have been able to help them improve in that field as well.

Janet W. - Austin, TX 78729 (39.9 mi) - Composition Tutor - $35.00/hr.
To teach reading, I teach the children to use all the reading strategies used by good readers.Examples of those strategies would be sight words, visual and context clues, and phonics. Then, I prefer to use leveled readers to improve their fluency and comprehension. For writing, after assessing their composition, I work with them to improve where needed skills such as organization, elaboration, complex sentences and transitions.
I use hands on materials and lots of practice to teach math. I taught grades kindergarten, first grade and second grade for a total of twenty-six years. Since then, I have tutored pre-k through 5th grade. My last assignment was tutoring a fifth grader in writing composition. I have worked as a tutor with several children on their reading, spelling and math skills. I worked as a UIL coach for creative writers in second grade.

Diana g. - Waco, TX 76705 (42.3 mi) - Composition Tutor - $42.50/hr.
I have worked with various needy students who have been classified as learning disabled, or
those who know they are in need for assistance. My experiences vary, as I worked with older children
in filling out applications for jobs and to prepare for jobs. I also, have worked with many adults
on writing papers for college preparation or with helping their children on writing tasks. I have
worked with young children on phonics and reading readiness. My style is what works for the person I am working with. I am opened to sharing my ideas,
but listening to each individual and what works for them.

Mila V - Killeen, TX 76543 (1.6 mi) - Composition Tutor - $41.00/hr.
I believe there is more than one way to accomplish a goal so I am not limited to only one certain teaching style. I will adapt to my client. A client may learn best while sitting and discussing subjects, another client may learn better if the subject can somehow become an activity and still other clients may absorb information a different way. I am prepared to adapt my approach to ensure my clients benefit from every session. I keep my clients informed about their progress, I do not get frustrated, and I am always patient with my clients so they feel comfortable enough to take initiative. They know if they make a mistake we can seize the opportunity to discover the area we should focus on. I have attained a MS in Counseling and Psychology, and a BS in Psychology with a Math minor. Through my journey into higher education I have been fortunate enough to motivate myself and others to push

Jacqueline P - Round Rock, TX 78665 (34.5 mi) - Composition Tutor - $41.00/hr.
While pursuing my Bachelor of Arts degree in Psychology, I volunteered my time at the Boys and Girls Club of America and tutored students of all ages in reading, math, science, and social studies. I am currently completing an alternative certification program for Texas teacher certification, and I am highly qualified to teach early childhood to sixth grade. Every child can learn, it just takes a good teacher to help make that happen. A teacher must assess each student for their learning style, ability, and readiness. I want to get to know my students so that I can better understand what motivates them to succeed and develop positive relationships. I care about all students and want to make a difference.

Jessica H - Hutto, TX 78634 (35 mi) - Composition Tutor - $39.00/hr.
I am a certified teacher in the state of Texas. I have, for the past ten years, been tutoring and teaching Latin and English/Language Arts. I taught high school for two years in Pennsylvania, and for the last two years, I have taught Latin and English here in Texas.
I graduated from the University of Iowa with a degree in Classics and a minor in English. I was an honors student in Classics, and I was chosen to be the departmental tutor in Greek.
In addition to maintaining more than full time hours as a student, I tutored students in Latin independently for free. My passion was to help students learn Latin even if they couldn't afford to pay me. My style of teaching is entirely dependent upon the needs of each student. My abilities and skills are highly adaptable to the needs each student faces. I believe that each student has a certain type of intelligence. Some will be gifte

John R - Cedar Park, TX 78613 (35.3 mi) - Composition Tutor - $39.50/hr.
While in college (1988-1994), I worked as a grader in the math department, with a goal of providing useful feedback to the students. I also began working as a tutor at Austin Community College (ACC) in their free learning labs at this time.
I have worked at ACC for about 10 years, tutoring math classes from basic math through calculus, differential equations, linear algebra, discrete math and probability. I also tutor physics, chemistry, statistics and writing. I have done some classroom teaching of the lower level math classes, but, as I do not have a master's degree, I cannot, by law, formally teach the upper level classes, though I would like to, and though I have been used as a substitute teacher on occasion for these classes. My goal when working with students is to fully describe the steps necessary to solving various classes of problems, often in an outline form, for it is
