I hope to make learning fun, not drudgery. I will do my best to make it interesting and something to look forward to! I am currently working on a Master's degree, and recently received my TESOL certificate (Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages). So if you have any issues with English as a second language, I can help with that, as well as any types of writing (I've worked as a writer and editor in several different fields). My B.A. degree is in English, with a minor in Communications. I worked as a tutor to put myself through college.

Mary E. - Millville, PA 17846 (45.3 mi) - Reading Tutor - $27.50/hr.
I have taught Reading for thirty years in various grades from Kindergarten to sixth grade. I use a combination of both online games and Websites and hands-on manipulatives. First, I like for the student to take multiple intelligence tests and then I know how best to help the student. The information I gain from the analysis is extremely informative. It tells me where the students' strengths lie such as some students are musically inclined, some are visual learners, auditory learners, some are mathematicians and various other styles. Then, the style that they learn through the best is how I would teach the student; this is based on Gardner's Multiple Intelligence.
Second, meeting the standards are essential in today's education system. The four C's of the 21st century is also necessary for students' to learn. They are collaboration, communication, critical thinking and creativity. I h

Helena F - West Pittston, PA 18643 (14.2 mi) - Reading Tutor - $36.50/hr.
I try to tailor my style to the student. Each student I had tutored when I was in college I had basically spoke with them, got to learn what they strong points were, their weaknesses, and areas that needed more base learning. I tailored lesson plans to help fill in their educational gaps, created small weekly assignments, and also helped with their current homework/lesson plan. I believe everyone learns in different ways. Some are more visual, others are more auditory so I tried to not only explain but also show by using whatever tools necessary/applicable (graphs, pictures, charts, etc.) My love of mathematics began while I was in elementary school--I looked forward to those classes and took as many as I could from my high school, Wyoming Area. I had, at one point in middle school, helped to tutor some students in one of my classes. While in college at Susquehanna University, I ha

Jennifer S - Wyoming, PA 18644 (15 mi) - Reading Tutor - $35.50/hr.
As a tutor at Eastern University I came to the realization that not all students learned in the same way. I have a different teaching style as compared to the teachers putting things into real life examples, or even making things hands on so my students understand better. The students knew that I wanted them to succeed and would stop whatever I was doing to help them do homework, study, etc. I can relate to the students while still respecting them and encouraging them to shine to their highest potential I recently graduated from Eastern University as a double major in accounting and finance.My courses in investments, finance, accounting and business have given me a solid base upon which I plan to build my career. I have a strong knowledge of QuickBooks, Excel, Word, PowerPoint etc. During my college career I was a tutor for the entire business department tutoring all accounting and finan

Christopher O - Springbrook Township, PA 18444 (16.2 mi) - Reading Tutor - $37.50/hr.
I have a passion for teaching people things that I love to do. I love to write, to analyze literature, and to solve problems. I bring energy and patience to the learning experience, and I am able to explain concepts in more than one way. All people, children and adults, learn in unique ways. The best thing I can do for people that I tutor will be to help them understand the ways that they learn. When people understand themselves better, they can learn more efficiently in the future without the help of a tutor! My goal is for all the people I teach to learn on their own and to one day be able to teach others. I completed my bachelor degree in English in three and a half years at Bucknell University, and this has trained me in writing, literary analysis, and oral communication. While at Bucknell, I spent four months tutoring children at a local elementary school in grades 3-5 in math, sci

Becky J - Moscow, PA 18444 (16.7 mi) - Reading Tutor - $33.00/hr.
Children love to learn and feel a sense of accomplishment and self-worth when they are successful. I greatly enjoy helping children learn. Each child has the capacity to learn and it is the teachers job to present the material in a manner which is conductive to the child’s understanding. Providing tools to help each student comprehend the material is essential. Many students are helped with additional reading strategies, or using a math manipulative to make an abstract concept understandable, or a graphic organizer to help understand new content material. The key is to provide additional methods or strategies so each student is successful. I have a passion to see each child succeed and reach their goals. I have a Bachelor of Arts from Susquehanna University and an Elementary Teaching Certificate from Bucknell University. Most recently I was an educational liaison in an alternative

Eugenia V - Montrose, PA 18801 (17.8 mi) - Reading Tutor - $34.50/hr.
My educational background in psychology and early childhood
education has given me the insight to allow student to figure out
things themselves with a little prompting. My most successful tutoring has been in explaining things the way a student might
relate to his own experience. Allowing time for listening
gives me clues to what that experience might be. I have tutored grades k-4 in Math, reading and english for the past six years in an after school program. I have studied child development to help me relate to elementary students.
My experience in writing for a newspaer has improved grammatical
skills.This endeavor has given me an eye for correctness and detail to insist on with my students.

William C - Kingston, PA 18704 (19.1 mi) - Reading Tutor - $55.50/hr.
While a student at Luzerne County Community College, I was recommended to be a tutor by mathematics professor David Wasilewski. I tutored college students primarily in the fundamentals of algebra and English composition. In 2005, I was awarded the Student Support Service Award for tutoring. I graduated with a Bachelor of Arts, summa cum laude, from King's College and went on to earn a Juris Doctor. In addition to social science courses, I have completed extensive general education courses throughout my college career. My teaching style depends completely upon the level of the student. I will tailor each session to the student's needs. I am a believer in mastering the basics before moving on to the advanced. I also divide (and encourage the student to divide) materials into more manageable steps, making schoolwork much less overwhelming. My goal is for every student I tutor to bec

Jaclyn S - Wilkes Barre, PA 18702 (19.2 mi) - Reading Tutor - $33.00/hr.
I feel that the best teachers are the ones who have fun while teaching. I have had the fortune of always loving what I do. All children have the potential to acheive success if they are challenged and provided with the proper tools. I have been told several times that I am great at thinking "outside the box", and this has served the children I have worked with well.My background in Art and Special Ed allow me to be a practical and creative teacher. I have learned that not all learning is conducted through traditional manners. Some children require videos, others hands on experience to improve learning. It is my goal to make a positive impact on all of my students' lives. I graduated from Southern CT State University in 2007 with a degree in Art Education. I have been teaching or substitute teaching in some capacity since my sophomore year of college. I have been exposed to severa
