Kayla B. - West Lafayette, IN 47906 (3.4 mi) - Writing Tutor - $30.00/hr.
I never learned best when I was just asked to read a passage out of a book. I need to be able to apply what I am learning and understand why what I am learning is important. I will do my best to tutor students in a more hands-on manner. Hello! My name is Kayla Bear. I am a first-year student at Purdue University; however, I am a sophomore according to my credit hours. I earned college credit in high school to get ahead of the game. I worked as a peer mentor throughout high school, helping students with their homework and helping prepare them for tests such as the SAT. I have taken a number of courses in various subjects, so I feel that I am able to help a wide range of students. I was editor of my high school yearbook last year, so I have a lot of experience training people in writing and grammar. I was also asked to tutor Statistics for Purdue University due to my high achievement in my

Meagan R. - Lafayette, IN 47909 (8.1 mi) - Writing Tutor - $20.00/hr.
My teaching style varies upon subject and student. I graduated from Jefferson High School in the spring of 2012. I now attend Indiana University-Purdue University in Fort Wayne. I have two younger siblings and 4 younger step-siblings that I have helped with their homework, or helped them better understand material assigned to them. Their ages range from 8-17. I know how to explain certain subjects in multiple ways to ensure that eventually the student will understand the material. I am very patient, and I understand that some people learn at slower rates than others. I am majoring in nursing, though I considered teaching English before making this decision. I love teaching, and am looking to make some extra money for things I need while in college.

Kayla A. - Lebanon, IN 46052 (37.4 mi) - Writing Tutor - $30.00/hr.
For three years I taught high school seniors in an Advanced Composition class where they were being "trained" in the specific paper styles that are found in college classes. I am well aware of the writing process and the different types of papers colleges and high school require for graduation. Since graduating from Baptist Bible College in 2006, I have been teaching high school English in Indiana for six years now. I taught three years at Bethesda Christian School in Brownsburg, where I spanned English 9, 10, 11, Senior Speech, and Advanced Composition for seniors. In 2010 I began teaching at Faith Christian School in Lafayette; there I taught English 9, 10, and 11. I was also the Yearbook Advisor two years at Faith. July 1, 2013, I had my first baby, and I have decided to stay at home and raise her instead of returning to the classroom. I am a very hands-on learner, so I tend to t

Judith G. - Indianapolis, IN 46254 (52.5 mi) - Writing Tutor - $36.00/hr.
Beginning and intermediate levels of writing require dedication to the practice of basics and then the transitional stretch to the intermediate level. I make certain that each student conquers his/her particular problems so the he/she can readily step up to the next area of success. I have taught nearly all areas of language arts including, but not limited to, ECA/GQE remediation, SAT/ACT prep, beginning-intermediate-advance composition, AP English/literature, poetry, American literature, British literature, drama, speech, and school newspaper. I have, in addition, worked with school drama productions, encouraged my "poetically inclined" students to participate in school poetry slams and co-founded a student art/literary publication. I was also voted "Most Influential Teacher" for eight straight years. Additionally, I have been an instructor in adult education with a high pass resu

Jeffrey K - West Lafayette, IN 47906 (3.5 mi) - Writing Tutor - $35.00/hr.
I tutored all through college. I have tutored one-on-one and small groups, and I have also been a TA and taught a few class periods. In addition i tutored a student in High School in several subjects. Most of my experience tutoring has been in math, physics and engineering, but I am also fluent in Spanish. My teaching style is helping the student arrive at the correct solution. In problem based courses this is usually done through asking the student what they think the next step should be and guiding them through the process of problem solving. Once they start to understand problem solving then they do not only improve in the course that I am tutoring them in but in their other courses as well. In a nutshell I try to help students learn how to learn.

Tamara K - West Lafayette, IN 47906 (3.9 mi) - Writing Tutor - $33.50/hr.
I have always loved school and find that I miss it at times. Because of that I jump at the chance to help those who need it. I college I helped other students who had math and physics classes. I have learned the skills that I needed to both learn and remember and have helped others to do so also. My best friend's little brother is dyslexic and I have helped him throughout high school and now in college. I am very easy going, patient, a problem-solver. I believe that learning can and should be fun, and when it is not only does a person enjoy it, but often excells at it. Having always been driven to achieve academic success, I received all A's throughout middle school and high school and was one of my high school valedvictorians. I then received full tuition to the University of Evansville and continued my academic success. My major required my to put in hours before and after the

As a Purdue University grad, I have firm foundation in the following subjects: Calculus (I, II, & III), General Chemistry, Organic Chemistry, Physical Chemistry, Chemical Engineering--(Heat/Mass, Fluids, etc.), Physics (Mechanics and Electricity/Magnetism), Differential Equations, and Linear Algebra. I also completed a minor in Spanish and am able to read, write, and speak the language fluently. Likewise, I took both Anatomy & Physiology courses (along with Intro Bio).

I am a life-long learner, and I always strive to provide the student I am tutoring (both and young and old) th

Douglas P - West Lafayette, IN 47906 (5.6 mi) - Writing Tutor - $39.50/hr.
My main goal is to help students develop confidence and competence. I believe every student has his or her own particular gifts, talents, and skills, and it is my duty as an educator to inspire them to utilize their potential. To this end, I strive for subject mastery, critical thinking, and problem-solving. In the end, I expect excellence from my students, but I also deeply value growth. My ultimate goal is to produce students who are properly knowledgeable in the subject matter, engaged in the learning process, and excited about applying this learning in their own lives. I love to write. As a pastor, professor, and playwright, I have actively been writing for the past ten years. I have written hundreds of sermons, lesson plans, papers and newsletters. I have also written five plays for young adults, one of which was published. I earned a master's degree in Divinity, a bachelor'

Teresa R - West Lafayette, IN 47906 (6.2 mi) - Writing Tutor - $36.00/hr.
I love working with children, especially when they finally have their "Aha" moment. It is my belief that all students learn differently. My goal is to figure out how a student learns best, and then create lessons that teach to their specific style of learning. I started working in classroom settings in high school. I had three cadet teaching experiences in preschool, second grade, and seventh grade. I also graduated from Anderson University, where I started classroom practicum experiences in my second semester. During my first year out of college I have worked with ESL students, students with special needs, and led guided reading groups. I have also worked as an after school tutor in Math and Reading.

Leah V - Lafayette, IN 47904 (7.4 mi) - Writing Tutor - $37.00/hr.
I am currently a graduate student in Political Science at Purdue University in West Lafayette, IN. I have taught a public speaking course to undergraduate students at Purdue for the past year. I also have experience working with younger children and with special needs students. I have a B.A. in Political Science and Classical Studies from Drew University in Madison, NJ, and I worked for some time as a director and dramaturge in the New York/New Jersey area professional theatre community. My public speaking class is extremely participatory, both so students can gain experience speaking in front of an audience and because this format seems to keep students more interested in the material. My experience teaching children in theatre was also very participatory. I believe that students learn best when they can understand a given concept from several different angles. I also believe that each

Krystal A - West Lafayette, IN 47906 (9.1 mi) - Writing Tutor - $39.00/hr.
Every child wants to learn, although a more creative design may be needed to find a child's greatest potential. Patience, consideration, and encouraging words are simple tasks to help the self esteem of children in a child's education. With a degree from Purdue University and continuing on to get a degree in engineering, I am engaged in many areas of science and math. Even at a young age I taught my younger sister basic mathematical and reading skills even before she entered kindergarten; we called it "school". The youngest, my brother, in which we are both diagnosed with ADHD, is amazing. I quickly learned to be patient with him when helping with his homework because I can see the same frustration on his face I had at his age when trying to concentrate on a difficult task.
