Scott M. - San Diego, CA 92101 (8.5 mi) - College Journalism Tutor - $35.00/hr.
I am currently a professional journalist, but spent almost 10 years in three different California school districts. I write for two different newspapers in San Diego, as well as a local television station. I am well-versed in grammar, punctuation, spelling and all other aspects of creative writing. But most importantly, I have many years of teaching experience, as well as children of my own, and understand the fundamentals of teaching students and making sure there is proper retention of the lesson. My teaching style is determined by the needs of the student, but I have a multitude of effective methods to improve and develop writing skills for a variety of learners.

Ian S. - El Cajon, CA 92020 (14.3 mi) - College Journalism Tutor - $32.50/hr.
I am what you might call a camp kid. I grew up spending summers in the mountains, camping and hiking and when I grew older, working. The foundation of my leadership experience was built in the forrest. For six summers I worked as an outdoor educator and adventure guide, leading groups of students through week long trips into the natural world. I believe in experience as the greatest teacher. Students are empowered when they learn from their experience and begin to flourish in themselves.
At university, my enthusiasm for the outdoors lead me to the arts. I took a particular interest in poetry and short stories and immersed myself in literary life at UCSD. I was often asked to facilitate writing workshops and discussion groups, and in doing so I've found tutoring to come quite naturally to me.

gloria s. - Carlsbad, CA 92008 (18.5 mi) - College Journalism Tutor - $37.50/hr.
I have taught all core subjects plus art history for over 20 years using various state mandated materials and supplementals I purchased through special ed catalogs. Student outcomes were best with the supplementals due to limited attention span and high interest-low level materials. I use various methods to determine mastery- I create my own written or verbal assessments, writing assignments and have students maintain learning journals.
I have a background in educational psychology which is useful in dealing with students with behavioral issues. I work through positive behavior supports, humor and style to motivate the student to understand the need to learn the core subject matter in order to proceed through high school. I am excellent at reading the needs of the student and creating lessons that are relevant, interesting and fun.

Gene M - San Diego, CA 91222 (1.7 mi) - College Journalism Tutor - $43.00/hr.
With 2 Masters Degrees in both business and education, and having taught different levels of mathematics for University of Phoenix Online for the past 3 years, I offer strong training background. Additionally, working for San Dieguito Unified HS District and La Jolla Country Day School as a substitute teacher for the past two years, I have learned to quickly develop rapport with middle and high school students. I believe it is better to establish classroom guidelines first, and at the same time establish a good relationship with my students, to get through the work that the students need to do, then relax a bit to have fun with learning. I enjoy being in the classroom or tutoring one-on-one, and based on feedback from students, parents and other teachers, students enjoy working with me as well. I consider these testimonies proof I am an effective teacher and tutor.

Christopher T - San Diego, CA 92109 (2.5 mi) - College Journalism Tutor - $44.00/hr.
I have a BS in Supply Chain Management from Arizona State University, and have been pursuing a Biochemistry degree from the University of San Diego with an expected completion date of May 2012. During my studies I have become very knowledgeable in the sciences, particularly Biology, Chemistry, and Organic Chemistry. I recently took the Dental Admissions Test (DAT) and scored in the 93rd percentile. The DAT measures ability in Biology, General Chemistry, Organic Chemistry, Reading Comprehension, Algebra, and Geometry among other subjects. I have worked with students in a small class setting, and one-on-one for about a year, and feel very comfortable in my ability to help students achieve their educational goals. I believe I am a very patient, outgoing person, which suits me well as a tutor. I feel I am a good listener and have a strong grasp on my student's needs and areas of weakness, wh

Rachel D - San Diego, CA 92103 (7.6 mi) - College Journalism Tutor - $47.50/hr.
My teaching style is student-centered. This approach is two-fold. I use scaffolds to assist in the discovery process, but encourage students to truly perform the “learning” independently, better preparing them for future endeavors. I also focus my delivery and content around the students’ interests, skill-levels, and abilities. I believe everyone has the right to an education and modify accordingly. I am patient, humorous, and approachable. It is not my goal for the students to fear me; I want to be an authority figure that they respect but also trust. I encourage students to think outside of the box as well as raise them to higher standards and skill levels. I am passionate about education, reading, and writing, and it shows! As a graduate of the University of Puget Sound, I earned a Bachelor’s Degree in English studies as well as a minor in Biology. I spent a year in college

Guy M - San Diego, CA 92106 (7.9 mi) - College Journalism Tutor - $47.50/hr.
I am a patient teacher that understands that some concepts are not easily understood and simply repeating yourself without changing your tack will not bring about understanding. Providing real world examples that are relevant to a student's interests is one powerful way to encourage learning. With regards to math and science, I've often found that abstract theoretical concepts are more difficult to understand, whereas practical examples are more easy to visualize. Whenever possible, I try to create scenarios that apply in the real world so that the student can understand and apply the concept in the future. I am a synthetic Organic Chemist with over 7 years of industrial experience with Pfizer Inc. During this time period I routinely shared research progress with my peers and helped educate them on new reactions, instrumentation, techniques and methodology. During my studies at Kala

Emily C - San Diego, CA 92103 (7.9 mi) - College Journalism Tutor - $53.00/hr.
Working with hundreds of college students to improve their writing, from academic essays in all subjects to college applications puts a big smile on my face. When they report to me that they received 'A' grades or acceptance to the college of their choice, we both know they have sharpened the tools which will energize their futures.
I have written extensively myself, as a fundraiser and communications consultant, so realize the impact, in dollars and cents, that clear and vivid language can have on your reader.
Let's work together to make your writing easier for you, and a joy for your reader. I am warm-hearted and intuitive. I will listen carefully to what you say about your tutoring needs before I look at the work you are doing and offer my analysis of how you can make your language stronger, clearer and more persuasive.
I have raised two children who have financed their college

Leo C - San Diego, CA 92116 (8.5 mi) - College Journalism Tutor - $52.50/hr.
At The English Center, the focus is on creating a positive learning environment in a supportive setting. After establishing the agenda, a tutoring session ensues in which particular emphasis is placed on hands-on involvement, attention to detail, developing critical thinking skills and fostering self-empowerment. My style draws upon a variety of influences, including patience, enthusiasm and a healthy dose of humor. An unwritten goal of each session is to ensure that the student leaves with a greater understanding of the subject matter than when he arrived. With two degrees to my credit, along with a career of almost 15 years as a journalist and over 20 years as a jazz disc jockey, I possess the combination of education, experience and communication skills that have proven quite successful during my three years as a tutor at The English Center at San Diego City College.
