Pamela P. - Detroit, MI 48228 (21.6 mi) - Entrance Exams Tutor - $37.50/hr.
I have been a tutor for 23 years and I have taught Adult Basic Education for 12 years. I am still continuing my education to receive a Masters degree and plan to get my PhD. I work for a community college and have done advising, enrollment, testing, phone directory, and student sevices. I have attended many professional development workshops on education. Critical thinking skills and untraditional ways are what I focus on. However the way someone learns, I will try to set the individual up to show how they learn and work with them. I will implement practices and materials I think will fit the student's profile. I feel a teacher wears many hats and you must be prepared to wear a different one any day.

Anjum K - Clinton Township, MI 48038 (3.2 mi) - Entrance Exams Tutor - $42.50/hr.
I have been tutoring for many years and enjoy the experience. While working at a tutoring center, I created detailed progress reports and organized individual lesson plans for each student and discussed their progress with parents on a daily basis. It was very rewarding to see that I could make a difference in a child's life. It is very exciting to see a child succeed, which in turn raises their confidence and self-esteem. Whether in groups or in one-on-one sessions, I work patiently with each student and on their level, to ensure they get the most out of our time. I have recently graduated from Lawrence Technological University with a BA in graphic design, although all of my work experience has been with children. I started this experience in high school, as a teacher aide to a third grade class, creating lesson plans and working one-on-one. I have tutored in a professional tutori

Charles K - Grosse Pointe, MI 48236 (12.7 mi) - Entrance Exams Tutor - $41.50/hr.
I do not believe that there is a single correct teaching style. Each student is an individual and as in any other task we take on, it must be approached in a unique manner. I have tutored enough students to learn that simply put, different children learn differently. I will approach each student this way and work to discover exactly what works best with that student in order to provide them with the conceptual understanding and study skills necessary to reach their full potential. I received my B.S. in biopsychology from the University of Michigan in 2004 and am currently pursuing my M.D. from New York Medical College. After completeing two years of medical school, I chose to take a one year leave of absence to publish my research which is being funded locally here in Detroit. As is evident by my academic achievements, I have a strong background in both math and science. Additional

David S - Grosse Pointe Park, MI 48230 (13.2 mi) - Entrance Exams Tutor - $43.00/hr.
Throughout my academic career, I successfully tutored classmates by using a “hands on” approach and by simplifying advanced concepts into easy to understand examples. I developed a broad knowledge base in a variety of subjects including math, statistics, English grammar, writing, business subjects including finance and accounting, history, and study skills. I am patient and enjoy helping students of all ages and abilities to learn and become successful students. In both situations, and have demonstrated a strong ability to work side by side with students to achieve learning progress and goals by working through problems and concepts step by step to create understanding. As a BBA and MBA graduate of the University of Michigan and University of Notre Dame, I have demonstrated a strong record of academic success based on strong study skills, hard work, and analytical ability.

Matthew M - Royal Oak, MI 48068 (14.2 mi) - Entrance Exams Tutor - $52.50/hr.
I have taught physical science and life science in New York public high schools since 1996. I have taught at Brooklyn Tech and Midwood H.S., two of the leading high schools for physical science in the state. Many of my students have been accepted into leading colleges and universities across the country. I have received excellent training and evaluations from my supervisors, who have taught me to use non-traditional as well as traditional methods of instruction and assessment, such as collaborative learning and portfolio assessment.
In order to help finance my graduate education, I have tutored students in N.Y.C. from a very wide range of ethnic and ability levels privately for more than ten years in writing, science, English, and history. All students can learn, but they have different learning styles. Identifying a student's strengths and weaknesses is a key step in the learning pro

Michael C - Ferndale, MI 48220 (14.4 mi) - Entrance Exams Tutor - $37.00/hr.
I have been teaching for close to fifteen years now, and have had a great deal of experience in working with students from Kindergarten all the up to adult education. This has enabled me to become an extremely well-rounded, adaptable, and flexible educator who is able to wear many hats whenever necessary.
I have taught most subject areas and tutored students for SAT/ACT
college entrance exams, math, writing, english, Spanish, etc... I believe in empowering our students whenever possible. By this I mean allowing the students to be in charge and have control over their own learning by giving students options. I like working with students in small groups, where I mix their levels of ability thus allowing then to learn not only from me, but from each other as well!

Brian S - Rochester Hills, MI 48309 (14.6 mi) - Entrance Exams Tutor - $42.50/hr.
I began officially tutoring four years ago, starting up a private tutoring business. Through it, I have taught ages 5 through 55 in nearly all subjects, including mathematics, science, physics, ACT, and English. I also have tutored publicly at Oakland University for one year, where I earned my tutoring certification (level 1). My passion is in watching others to succeed, and I am willing to change my own methods to make that happen. Thus, my tutoring style depends almost entirely on the student as I have found that the most common reason a tutor is needed is that the student's learning style does not match with the teacher's teaching style. I can tutor through examples, visually drawing concepts, talking, describing the reasons behind a concept, and most importantly, I can relate almost every subject to daily life.

Scott M - Ferndale, MI 48220 (14.7 mi) - Entrance Exams Tutor - $46.50/hr.
My teaching style can be best described as “student centered.” I enjoy the challenge of determining the needs of the individual student and using my skills and experience as an educator to focus on those needs in a way that helps the student learn most effectively. My students find me both personable and approachable, which are two qualities that have helped me to be highly successful at one-on-one student interaction in the past. I have worked as a high school Language Arts teacher for the past 18 years. I have taught a variety of literature, composition, and public speaking courses. I have experience teaching students in all high school grades (grades 9-12). I also have extensive experience working with high school aged students in various capacities outside the classroom, such as coaching, club sponsor, class sponsor, and driver education teacher. I also have conducted writing w

Troy J - Ferndale, MI 48220 (14.7 mi) - Entrance Exams Tutor - $43.00/hr.
I build a relationship of trust with the students and offer positive reinforcement and use humor to engage all of them. My initial goal is to engage the students then move on to teaching with the final goal being the understanding of the subject in a way that is deeper then just memorization. I want the students to understand why cats see well in the dark instead of just knowing that they do. My specialty is English Literature but I enjoy teaching science and math. I have privately tutored students that recently arrived from Japan in English with a focus on conversation to enable them to quickly feel comfortable in a new country. As they attained conversation skills I changed my focus to education based teaching with a focus on understanding the classroom teacher and being able to participate in the classroom discussion. I have a degree in English but I have completed through Calculus 2

Ejaz S - Auburn Hills, MI 48326 (16.8 mi) - Entrance Exams Tutor - $46.00/hr.
The one thing that I observed about the learning process, is that a person quickly grasps a concept if he/she is interested, or the topic is thoughtful and challenges the wit of a person and lastly, a person is very comfortable in learning through his/her friends. Nobody is stupid not to grasp a concept. It is the methodology, technique and feeling of comfort and interest, that is required. Hence I try to be affable and was more involved. A picturization or a real life example is more likely to fit in a person's mind. I used this technique and was very successful. With this regard, about 70% of my class scored 90% and above in their respective examinations. I have about 3 years of extensive hands-on and successful teaching experience, I am confident in my ability and passion to teach mathematics.

Eric S - Southfield, MI 48075 (17.5 mi) - Entrance Exams Tutor - $43.00/hr.
My resume highlights my ability, knowledge, and expertise in individual and group therapy at a master level in the field of social work. During my time at Eastern Michigan University, I was able to advance my skill set and knowledge-base by being in a supervisory role. As I matriculated, I learned how to multi-task as I was a graduate student and an employee for EMU. In my role I tutored and advised college students who were on academic probation, specifically in the subjects english and history. I dealt directly with children and families from disenfranchised populations, demographically diverse populations, and special needs populations. What I value most is having the opportunity to work with adults and children simultaneously. This gave me a broad over-standing of how to approach very challenging situations. In addition, what I have found to be an effective tool when working with aca
