Amanda D. - Johnson City, TN 37604 (32.4 mi) - Elementary Tutor - $21.00/hr.
Friendly understanding and patient. You gotta relate the kid and make them want to learn if they are actually gonna listen and absorb the information. I’m good with kids, high school and below I can break it down easily, I have good study habits, and I like to encourage people to better themselves educationally. My best subjects are in high school is math and chemistry. And I could teach anything middle school and below. I am a digital media student so I am also good with computers.

On the professional end, I was an accountant (CFO type) for a very long time. My most recent "job," though, was publishing a natural health magazine (4 years).

Children can feel that I enjoy them so they like me. I am a grandmother of two (2 and 6). I live in Black Mountain area. Contact me at CarolinaLightWave@gmail.com to set up a meeting.

Thomas W. - Fairview, NC 28730 (48.9 mi) - Elementary Tutor - $40.00/hr.
Motivation is the key to everything we do in life. I use this to drive my students to excel beyond what they think they are capable of accomplishing. I utilized experiential theory and real-world experiences to drive my education to make lessons relevant, fun and interesting. I utilize the constructionist learning theory where I establish where my students are with the given subject and attach new knowledge structures to support continue growth where they build their overall schema and level of understanding on a given topic. I utilize positive reinforcement and humor to keep them excited about the task at hand. I have my Pre-K through 8th grade elementary education credential from West Virginia, California and North Carolina. I have also taught High School classes and worked as a guest lecturer for college level courses. I have 10 years of experience as a teacher and I have my administr

Joshua W - Morristown, TN 37813 (13.3 mi) - Elementary Tutor - $38.50/hr.
I am blessed to have attended a college that prepared me for real world situations and classroom circumstances. I have achieved two bachelor's degrees, a BS in bible and a BS in elementary education. I have also achieved a master's in holistic education. These degree programs provided me with a grasp of all subject areas in the elementary portion of schooling. I have also had the pleasure of tutoring many athletes at both the college and middle school level. I have tutored in subjects ranging from math and science to history and literature. I am a discussion based teacher. I prefer to engage the students higher level thinking with a questioning approach. I do not think that lecture or rote memorization are proper ways to educate a child. I believe that teachers affect a students learning not just through the subject but also through the real world examples that should be the core

Amber H - Bean Station, TN 37708 (18.2 mi) - Elementary Tutor - $36.00/hr.
During my four years at East TN State University (ETSU), I tutored college students in General and Organic Chemistry, and multiple Psychology courses. I also taught for Kaplan Test Prep in small classes and prepared high school students for the SAT and ACT. I graduated in 2004 with a BS in Psychology. I then went to South College to get my teaching certificate. I student taught for 16 weeks under two wonderful mentoring teachers, and started subbing in January 2005. In August 2005 I received a full-time teaching position, and that is my current career. I love teaching and tutoring children of all ages. Although I have only formally been tutoring for about 6 years, I was a tutor all through my childhood helping other children learn when I finished with my classwork. Since first grade I have always wanted to be a teacher, although my brain tried to steer me in a different direction in coll

Timothy B - New Market, TN 37820 (24.2 mi) - Elementary Tutor - $38.00/hr.
I like to accommodate to a child's personality and likes to help them to learn through distinct processes. When given the opportunity in the correct manner, children can learn most of what is put in front of them. By using example catered specifically to certain children, they are able to connect to the tutor as well as the subject. As a tutor, I am kind, laid-back and patient. Younger kids seem to gravitate to me, while the older kids relate to me. Coming from a family with no prior college education, I made it a point to not only graduate from a four-year university but to work as hard as I could to be the best at what I do. I accomplished what I have set out to do by graduating with a degree at both institutes I attended with a GPA above 3.0. I have tutored my younger brother for several years in the four major subjects. I also worked in high school as a teaching aid for a 4th grade c

mindy m - kingsport, TN 37660 (31.1 mi) - Elementary Tutor - $38.00/hr.
I have worked with different levels of mental health and emotional maturity for several years. I have spent much of my spare time working within the community at youth centers, soup kitchens and veteran administration homes. I feel that working with many different types and levels of human functioning has enabled me to be more able to adjust my teaching and assisting styles to better serve my community. Each person learns at an individual pace. I use the Gardner system of multiple intelligences to facilitate individual learning style. I do not believe something is impossible to learn, or unteachable. Patience is a moral and ethic rule with my personal professional style.

Megan H - Leicester, NC 28748 (31.4 mi) - Elementary Tutor - $55.50/hr.
In all my varied teaching situations, I strive to make the material exciting and relevant to the students. I am a lifelong learner too and my curiosity about the world encourages students. I have always gone above and beyond with preparation time to find interesting texts, thought provoking guest speakers, and games to diversify the classroom time. When possible and relevant, I take kids outside for hands-on experiences. As a parent, I have developed more confidence for guiding children to discover things for themselves. I encourage questions and also observe children to see how they might best learn so I can adapt my approach accordingly. Most recently, I served as faculty for a study-abroad program in Tanzania for Earlham College. In addition to implementing all programmatic activities, I designed and taught a rigorous conservation course. Quality education has always been very i

Karen B - Weaverville, NC 28787 (31.9 mi) - Elementary Tutor - $37.00/hr.
I have found that children are very comfortable with me, which makes the learning process flow more smoothly. I was trained to discover the problems that prevent children from learning to read and absorb written material. Children learn in different ways, and I try to individualize my teaching methods to suit the individual child. After earning my teaching degree in English, I gained some middle school and high school teaching experience, then took a different path for some years. While earning my master's degree in reading education, I gained experience by helping teach children at Western Carolina University's reading clinic in Asheville. I have done some individual tutoring on my own, while searching for a position in my field. As an avid reader myself, I know the value of a sound reading ability. I try to instill that love of reading in my students.

Jason Y - Leicester, NC 28748 (34.7 mi) - Elementary Tutor - $39.00/hr.
My teaching style varies greatly depending on the needs of the student; however, I always try to meet the student first and then decide which approach will be the most effective. My philosophy of teaching revolves around the theory that a tutor or teacher's primary role is to support the student so that each problem can be solved by the student. It is also important to me to apply the subject at hand to the life of the student so that concepts hold meaning in an individuals life. I am patient and capable of working with students from all walks of life. I am a recent graduate with a Master of Science in Environmental Studies with a Conservation Biology concentration. This education has required that I become acquainted with a wide variety of subjects including mathematics and the natural sciences. This also entails having a high level of written and oral communication skills needed
