I have my Bachelors Degree in Professional Writing with a minor in Creative Writing. In other words, I've suffered through hundreds of grueling English assignments. I know the pain, and I know how to get you through it. I've worked for magazines, taken teaching courses, written many stories, worked as a copy writer, and I do volunteer teaching at a church every Sunday. Interactive, practical, and fun!

Edward M. - Mico, TX 78056 (20.3 mi) - Literature Tutor - $35.00/hr.
Skillful. I like a conversational, relaxed style in which the students are encouraged to speak English as much as possible. I often have students repeating useful, whole sentences and phrases.Mistakes are okay! Humor is okay! Questions are encouraged. I am a very experienced teacher of English as a Second Language (ESL). I served for three years as a Peace Corps Volunteer in Afghanistan and the Fiji Islands. I also taught ESL in Japan, Saudi Arabia and Pakistan. I have also taught ESL for many years here in the USA to both adults and children. I have experience with many foreign cultures.

Andrew F. - San Antonio, TX 78209 (21.1 mi) - Literature Tutor - $30.00/hr.
I enjoy deconstructing the building blocks of various kinds of literature (i.e. how it's structured and written). Whether is it an assigned class reading, an assigned home reading, or one I suggest, I can help the individual look at literature in a more healthily critical way. After understanding the individual's goals, I can construct an approach to help them reach them!
If you have any questions, please, ask! I have experience tutoring students as well as working with people individually and in groups, as an undergrad Psychology intern, a cognitive skills trainer, and a counseling student. As an undergrad intern, I worked with elementary school children as a tutor and a mentor. As a counseling student, I have worked with various populations, from grade school students (making healthier choices) to adults (stress, anxiety, career decisions, bereavement, etc.) to older adults in hospi

Jodi I. - San Antonio, TX 78230 (22.2 mi) - Literature Tutor - $40.00/hr.
I tend to be really flexible and try to adapt my teaching style to the learning style of the student. For students who tend to be more tactile, I might have them handle apples if a math problem references apples. If a student is working on a writing assignment, I will offer suggestions (such as marking spelling/grammar/punction mistakes) and help them learn how to correct the errors so they won't continue to make the same errors in the future.

Sean d - San Antonio, TX 78228 (16.4 mi) - Literature 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

Timothy C - San Antonio, TX 78225 (16.4 mi) - Literature Tutor - $59.50/hr.
Tutoring has long been a passion of mine. I find great joy in helping others, particularly children, advance their own knowledge and education. My goal is not simply to have my students learn; I want my students to love learning. I do not want my students to regurgitate facts but to truly understand. I am patient with my students, but I am also persistent in my approach. I never talk down to my students; rather I attempt to bring them up to my level. I am easy-going and have a way of quickly making others at ease with me. I try to make the tutoring environment as stress-free as possible. I believe that encouragement is key in driving students toward success. Once a student believes in himself/herself, learning comes naturally and quickly. From the beginnings of my education, I have had a strong sense of personal excellence in my academic career. Being home schooled with the accelerated A

Kathleen R - San Antonio, TX 78201 (19.5 mi) - Literature Tutor - $38.50/hr.
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 Australia, which maintains the British-style of tertiary education. My credentials qualified me to be fully employed as a professional secondary school teacher and then as an adult ESL teacher for over 10 years. As a self-employed teacher, I taught in several language schools in Australia and recently conducted classes in Business English and Presentation Skills in Chile to corporate executives and managers. I am of the generation which studied English grammar and spelling, skills much appreciated by ambitious international and native-speaking students. 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 teach

Amanda W - San Antonio, TX 78213 (20.2 mi) - Literature Tutor - $37.00/hr.
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 best tutors are those who can shape each session to the tutee's individual needs and personality. This is most easily accomplished in developing a flexible approach constituted by a blend of directive and non-directive tactics. With this approach, my goal is always to aid the tutee in feeling comfortable and confident in developing new ways of thinking about his or her work, and, from there, helping him or her along the journey to success. 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
