Bridgette T - Decatur, AL 35603 (40.1 mi) - Special Education Tutor - $36.00/hr.
All children can learn, but it is my job, as a teacher, to figure out which learning style suits each particular child. Once you find that learning style, I always find that the students enjoy learning. Learning can be (and should be) enjoyed. I want my students to know that there is not just one set way of doing things. I am also a firm believer in positive reinforcement. I look for positive aspects in every student, and I praise that student for their hardwork and dedication. I graduated Athens State University in 2005 with a BS in Elementary Education (K-6). After graduation, I became a substitute teacher for six months. In 2006 I was hired on by Decatur City Schools. I have taught kindergarten, first grade, and second grade for Decatur City Schools. I am currently employed with Decatur City Schools as an aide. I have also tutored children at The Dyslexia Clinic in Decatur. I have wor

Sarah H - Decatur, AL 35601 (42.4 mi) - Special Education Tutor - $53.00/hr.
For many years, education has been one of my top priorities. I graduated salutatorian of my high school class and summa cum laude with a bachelor's degree in Biomedical Sciences. In high school, I tutored in a local elementary school, focusing on developing students' grammar and composition skills. While in college, I tutored chemistry, biology, physics and math courses up to graduate levels. While tutoring at my college, I received specialized training on identifying and adjusting to different learning styles. I use this knowledge to tailor each session to the needs of the individual student. To track progress, I like to set both short-term and long-term goals and create manageable steps toward reaching these goals. I also think it is important to teach students to establish general study skills so that they can make their own study plans for future courses.

Willie B - Birmingham, AL 35214 (46.1 mi) - Special Education Tutor - $38.50/hr.
For twenty-five years I successfully taught a comprehensive curriculum to elementary students (grades three through eighth).
My areas of academic interest are: Language Arts, Mathematics and Social Studies. I had an opportunity to visit several countries I taught in social studies (i.e., West Africa (Ghana and Guinee)& South Africa (Botswana, Cape Town,Johannesburg and Soweto) ; China(Beijing,Xian, Shanghai, Shenzin and Hong Kong)and Europe(Czech Republic, Krakow Poland, Berlin, Germany and Liverpool). As an educator I come endowed with a wealth of knowledge and firsthand experiences in various aacademic genres. I absolutely enjoy sharing that knowledge with all interested learners seeking to advance academically. My teaching style is interactive. I believe in fully engaging the student in the teaching-learning process. Students are more receptive to learning when they take ownership

Carlia M - Pleasant Grove, AL 35127 (47.2 mi) - Special Education Tutor - $41.50/hr.
I believe all students can learn any material, but it’s up to teachers, parents and schools to work together to come up with the best educational plan to make sure that they do. Therefore, I prefer the collaborative and community language learning model. Since all students possess many different levels of strengths and weaknesses, I demonstrate several strategies, and allow them to choose the one that works best for them. It gives me a better idea of how to teach the whole child. Since I have completed degrees in English, and Education with a Literacy specialization, I am more than qualified to teach/tutor students in English/LA and Reading. Additionally, I've passed the Praxis II Exam that the State of Alabama requires to "highly qualify" teachers. Moreover, I have spent four 1/2 years working directly with students in Special Education and ESL. I have extensive experience with inc

LaToya M - Fairfield, AL 35064 (49.5 mi) - Special Education Tutor - $35.00/hr.
My teaching style is mostly student-centered. I am the facilitator who is there to support all my students to do their best thinking and practice. I guide and direct students by asking questions, brainstorming, suggesting alternative methods of understanding as it applies to Howard (Gardner's) theory of multiple intelligences. Lastly, I encourage them to develop goals to master challenges. I am skilled in planning and coordinating appropriate learning experiences for children that are both fun and valuable,
demonstrate sensitivity to the needs of children from all backgrounds and ability levels, a team player with recognized leadership ability and a proven role model for children.
I also possess solid classroom management skills, have outstanding ability to build rapport and work cooperatively with others and my professional development is ongoing in the field of childhood education.

Berlene M - Fairfield, AL 35064 (49.7 mi) - Special Education Tutor - $36.00/hr.
I do not have formal experience in tutoring. I have taught for two months and have completed student teaching in kindergarten and 3rd grade. I completed numerous research papers during my time in college and all earned grades of B+ and higher. I connect well with children and encourage open communiction so that I may determine their learning styles and learning needs. I believe in teaching through inquiry and life experiences. I believe that making connections to content will enhance learning and increase comprehension.

Nancy B - Bessemer, AL 35020 (51.3 mi) - Special Education Tutor - $40.00/hr.
I love working with adolescents. I believe with all of my heart that each teen has the ability to accomplish great things with the proper motivation. I truly believe that children, teens as well as adults learn best by doing. I do not believe in teaching to a particular topic. I believe in teaching to the student and how the individual student learns. I want each one of my student's to succeed in their school environment as well as in their lives. Since January 2008, I have had the opportunity of tutoring at risk 9th, 10th, and 11th graders at Leeds High School's AVID (Achievement Via Individual Determination). I attempt to teach them critical thinking skills, reading skills, as well as studying skills.
I have worked with the AVID program while I completed my Masters Program.

Michelle Y - Homewood, AL 35209 (52.9 mi) - Special Education Tutor - $32.50/hr.
Children are one of the greatest joys in life because I get to watch them learn and understand the world around them. Children are sponges that soak up all the knowledge present to them. My teaching style is hands on. I want children to learn not just by a book but by practical application. When children discover material through experiences they are more likely to remember and be better prepared for life. I am driven by knowledge, the more knowledge I have the more I can relate to people from all walks of life. I have always been fascinated most by science and psychology. I studied biology, chemistry and psychology in college and earned a bachelors degree in Psychology. Through this I have acquired grammatical skills on how to write research papers and lab reports. I taught a study tactics course for a year and a half that focused on chemistry. This gave me the advantage to not only t

I made Dean's Highest Honor for the seven years of my studies. I have BA in Sociology and a graduate of Summa Cum Laude. I also earned a M.ed. in Special Education-Collaborative Teaching K-12. I made the top 1% of class rank. During those year, I tutored, mostly Algebra and Calculus, my classmates and also, taught English at the College of Korean Senior Citizen in Hawaii.
I have practical experiences in special and regular education classrooms at the elementary and middle schools and currently working with students with severe and profound Autism, delivering instructions in small group and one-on-one settings with mostly delivering Individualized Education Programs(IEP) for 11 students. My idea of the perfect approach to teaching requires the teacher to inspire learning in addition to just relating the required facts. A certain amount of creativity, enthusiasm, and motivation is req
