Iris T - Uncasville, CT 06382 (2.7 mi) - Desktop Publishing Tutor - $61.00/hr.
Since my parents were both teachers,to be a math teacher is my dream all the time. Although I have earned one bachelor degree in accounting, I still hope I can be an excellent teacher someday. I love teaching and working with all children and I believe all children can meet their goals if they are given the appropriate surroundings and learning methods. I am patient, easy going, and considerate. Just give me three months, I am available to help your child find academic success. When I was a high school kid, I finished the highest math class during grade 11. Since I was so good at mathematics, my teachers suggested me to tutor my classmates in math and science. Later, my study in the University of Connecticut has enabled me to gain an understanding in many areas of math and science, especially mathematics. During my college life I have also tutored students in mathematics, and physics.

Zarana K - Norwich, CT 06360 (4.9 mi) - Desktop Publishing Tutor - $38.00/hr.
I have always felt the need and want to help others, whether educationally or socially. As an immigrant who had to learn a new educational system, language, and lifestyle, I know first-hand how difficult a true and successful learning process can be. I believe that my strong communication skills and a patient persona are critical in helping someone achieve educational success. In recognizing each child's individual skills and abilities, I only hope to help them recognize their own strengths and weaknesses to achieve improvement. My love for reading and writing from a young age followed me through high school and college. By excelling in various courses, I had the opportunity to tutor a myriad of subjects in high school (particularly Science and Writing), and serve as a Writing Consultant at Bryant University since Freshman year. Outside of school, I have also assisted my friends and pee

Victoria L - Norwich, CT 06360 (5.7 mi) - Desktop Publishing Tutor - $38.50/hr.
I understand that finding the right tutor can be confusing and time consuming.
My specialty is to offer a customized experience to each student. I recently graduated 'Summa Cum Laude' from Eastern CT State University with a BS in Business Administration.
My primary experiences has been in with high school and college students tutoring in more difficult subjects such as, Chemistry, Statistics, Physics, Geometry, Calculus, etc. However, I have worked with students of all ages. My experiences have taught me that a cookie-cutter teaching style is not suitable for every individual. My responsibility is to quickly identify the students weaknesses and turn them into their STRENGTH!
I am a every interactive teacher. It is my strong belief that anyone can succeed with the proper motivation, reinforcement and tools. My tutoring style emphasizes the student as an active participant in t

Susan A - Norwich, CT 06360 (6.5 mi) - Desktop Publishing Tutor - $51.50/hr.
As an honor graduate I demonstrated the qualities necessary to attain a high level of educational excellence. I have a Bachelor Degree of Science with a triple concentration in Library/Literature/Sociology. I have 9 years in the public school system as a Library Technician where I honed my computer knowledge and gave individual instruction to both students and staff. My writing skills are superb as evidenced by the many research papers I have written to achieve the honors that I received on my diploma. I have privately tutored, and given group instruction in the areas of computer applications, math and language arts. I enjoy sharing the knowledge that I have gained, in both life and educational experiences, with children of all ages. I am patient, gregarious and easy going, and gauge my teaching style to fit the student. I believe that all individuals can meet their potential given posit

Linda R - Preston, CT 06365 (7.2 mi) - Desktop Publishing Tutor - $43.00/hr.
Being a mother of three adult children and a new grandmother, I adore children. Teaching Sunday School over many years has also brought me great joy. I also personally relate to a child's individual method of learning because I truly believe we all learn differently. There are no stupid or dumb children, only unique minds. Being patient, kind, and encouraging are only a few of my strengths, and I believe I can help any child reach their potential, even when they do not. I have two adult children who have had learning disabilities while growing up, and fully understand a parent's frustration in encouraging their child over these particular hurdles. I have a BS in Business Administration and achieved my degree over the period of nine years while working and raising my family. In addition, I have volunteered as a Sunday School teacher over a thirty year period, teaching ages 2-12 years

Richard H - Mystic, CT 06355 (10.8 mi) - Desktop Publishing Tutor - $41.50/hr.
Though my educational background tells of a ‘numbers’ background (economics, MBA), I consider myself a strong communicator and leader, too. I was fortunate to attend a leading high school, which gave me the foundations to excel at Colby College (undergraduate, magna cum laude) and later at Babson College (MBA, cum laude). I have mentored and tutored students in a variety of formats, including two teenagers whom I taught full-time during a 2-year global circumnavigation by sailing yacht, and others whom I have mentored on interviewing skills, time and priority management, and technical skills too. My lifestyle as an entrepreneur gives me great opportunities to give back and indulge my secret desire to teach. Friends and colleagues often tell me that I should have been a teacher instead of an entrepreneur based on my clarity of expression and passion for instructing. I instinctively a

Shelley O - Lisbon, CT 06351 (12.8 mi) - Desktop Publishing Tutor - $43.00/hr.
I love teaching and working with those that want to learn and may be struggling or are trying to complete their tasks to be able to move forward. I am always looking for creative new ways to teach to all learning styles and to make learning fun and practical. I have worked with the disabled and elderly for years along with children so I have vast experience with different age groups. I am very friendly and approachable and an excellent researcher and networker so I if I don't know a way to solve a request I know how to find someone or someway to complete the task. I find all small steps as important as the large accomplishments. As a social worker and advocate for many years I have always used my skills as an instructor and mentor. Most recently I completed my Master's in Teaching and State of Connecticut Elementary education certification which has allowed me to pursue employment i

Mary P - Pawcatuck, CT 06379 (14 mi) - Desktop Publishing Tutor - $44.50/hr.
I have taken math for 4 years in college. It is a subject that I very much enjoy-so much that all of my sons are also strong in mathematics. My oldest is a national merit scholar finalist, and my youngest son is captain of his high school math team. Math is fun, like a puzzle-once the student sees this fact, they begin having more fun and less fear of the subject. I am a patient teacher, and I use many different ways of communication. I try to find the style of learning best suited to my pupil. Removing the fear of the subject seems to be the most important part. I go through many many examples, until I feel that the student, and more importantly, the student has a feeling of confidence and mastery.

Jonathan B - Glastonbury, CT 06033 (22.1 mi) - Desktop Publishing Tutor - $39.50/hr.
Math can be fun, especially when applied to exciting applications. For my work at NASA and the MITRE Corporation I use concepts from Calculus I-II almost everyday. Inspiring students to become excited about math and science is one of my life-long goals.
Step by step visual diagrams can be effective tools for describing complex ideas. From my experience as a teacher and student I have had great success creating simple graphics to accompany otherwise dense math equations for circuits, data structures and statistics.
This teaching style coupled with a fresh knowledge of math material as a graduating senior make me confident that I can be an asset to your team this summer. I will be returning to my home in Connecticut May 18th and would welcome the opportunity to and discuss starting work at Advanced Learners! This week I am graduating Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute (RPI), Troy NY wi

Renee P - Glastonbury, CT 06033 (25.1 mi) - Desktop Publishing Tutor - $39.50/hr.
As a University of Connecticut graduate, I was very driven by my passion for the sciences. I earned a BS in pathobiology with a minor in molecular and cell biology. I was a well rounded student which has afforded me skills in math, psychology, and English. I have worked as a rowing coach for many years and have the patience and drive to help you reach academic goals. Teaching comes second nature to me. I believe that all students can learn, but each person requires a different style of instruction in order to fully understand the subject. I provide multiple kinds of instruction while keeping a patient and easy going mentality. It is my goal to help each student not only come to understand the subject, but be able to apply it in real life settings. This type of teaching can make a difference in each of my students' lives.

Nathaniel A - Middletown, CT 06457 (25.2 mi) - Desktop Publishing Tutor - $43.00/hr.
I greatly enjoy finding a way to inspire a child to understand the problem at hand. Through from my experience in grade school and my observation of students that attend tough schools I've realized the monotonous class schedule and disciplinary philosophy of most schools deflates most student's desire to succeed. While I can relate to this rebellious reaction I also know that it is no excuse for not trying very hard in school because the main path to success as a young adult is a high school diploma with excellent grades. I am very patient and friendly with students of all abilities. A diverse education at Wesleyan University has prepared me to tutor many high school subjects. I earned my BA at Wesleyan in Music but I almost double majored in Environmental Science. The high expectations of professors at Wesleyan pushed me to greatly improve my writing ability, with my music thesis e

Randolph S - Eastford, CT 06242 (27 mi) - Desktop Publishing Tutor - $42.00/hr.
I feel children are very self-aware and are very vulnerable to positive and negative feedback. Therefore, no matter how little progress is made, praise them. If no progerss is made or if an issue needs to re-addressed, praise them..."That was great, but let's try it this way!" I feel that you are positive, smiling, and they believe that you believe in them, 9 out of 10 kids will follow you! I was more of an instructor than a teacher. I was a day camp counselor at Solway House parent/child resort in Saugerties N.Y. I instructed kids how to swim, dive, play various sports and gave dancing lessons to the guests. As a high school student I tutored 7th and 8th graders in an after school community center. I was one of a few staff at the University of Connecticut to instruct graduates and staff in the use of the various electronic facilites available to them.

Bonnie P - Vernon, CT 06066 (27.9 mi) - Desktop Publishing Tutor - $43.50/hr.
I usually introduce topics by implementing collaborative learning exercises. I ask prompting questions to stimulate my students to be involved in learning the basic concepts. Humor, real-world connections, hands-on materials, and technology help students develop a better understanding and therefore the information is more likely stored in long term memory. During the past two years, I have worked as a full-time Mathematics teacher. I have taught Honors Geometry, College Geometry, General Geometry, General Algebra I and Applied Mathematics. I planned and instructed Mathematics using a wide variety of teaching aids, motivational and implementation strategies to engage students in active learning. I also developed a new program for General Geometry course more applicable to student’s with special needs. Before and during my full-time position, I tutored in small group and one-on-one sett
