Liza W. - San Jose, CA 95111 (8.7 mi) - Spelling Tutor - $40.00/hr.
I utilize a variety of instructional techniques to help each diverse learner succeed and excel. I believe the most imperative part of teaching is to facilitate a positive rapport with my students and have clear structure for them to work with. I have taught Social Studies and Language Arts at the middle school and high school levels in Missouri for three years. I have worked with students that are considered at-risk, ELD, and students with special needs (including Autism, remedial studies, learning disabilities, and emotional disturbance disorders). I hold current and valid teaching credentials in both California and Missouri. I am in the last eight months of my Masters Degree at National University for teaching students with special needs. I also hold a Masters in Education in Best Teaching Practices, and Bachelors of Science in Social Studies Education.

Naz S. - San Jose, CA 95111 (8.7 mi) - Spelling Tutor - $65.00/hr.
Fun, energetic, while producing results. I have a deep love for youth and students as I see them as the light of the world. My duties as a lecturer for three years included test proctoring, full management in regulating/lesson planning accredited undergraduate courses as well as Masters courses. Grading, educating and motivating college students has become a part of my identity! Office hours helped not only my tutoring skills, but also gave me the privilege of getting to know my students better on an individual basis. I loved every minute of it! I am of course TESOL Certified, in addition to having a BA in International Relations from UC Davis. I’ve recently taken on the challenge and privilege of researching, proposing, and instructing a college level TOEFL class designed for my students coming in from China, Taiwan, and Vietnam, to improve student test scores, and test taking tacti

Mihir K. - Santa Clara, CA 95050 (12.7 mi) - Spelling Tutor - $92.50/hr.
I really pride myself in personalizing my tutoring. I try to never have more than 6-7 students at a time so that I can provide the best possible personalization of teaching to each student. Additionally, being at a similar age to many of my students helps me relate to them a lot better than some older tutors may be able to; I have more recent experience with taking the same courses/tests as them or applying to colleges like them, and this helps a lot in my tutoring personalization.
In terms of my teaching style, I love being able to connect with students beyond the structured environment of most classrooms and tutoring/prep academies. I try to provide my students with just enough structure so that they know how to study, how to test, etc., but enough autonomy so that they can learn how to succeed on their own.
Helping students navigate this fine line is really meaningful, as many

I will specialize in tutoring English because it has always been one of my strongest subjects, and one I am most passionate about. I hope that I will find the opportunity to build confidence in my students and motivate them to expand their horizons and explore their strengths.
I have always loved working with kids and I, myself, as an elementary student was tutored throughout the years. My tutors were extremely influential throughout my academic career and really pushed me to reach my potential. I hope that in tutoring elementary students, I will be able to be a positive influence and help them learn and grow as individuals. I am an 18 year old high school graduate, looking to help students enhance their learning experience and apply themselves to the best of their capabilities. I do not have prior experience, however, I hope that this summer I will be able to help students and gain
