Trisha B - Ester, AK 99725 (30.7 mi) - Tutor - $41.50/hr.
I have extensive education and volunteer experience working within the biological sciences. I graduated in 2004 from Edgewood College in Madison, WI with a degree in Biological Sciences. I have worked in many fields of science including wildlife rehabilitation, solid waste management, and fisheries management. I have extensive experience working with young children and youth (13-17) during my career as a wildlife biologist. I was involved in hosting a science camp for children and youth where we covered many scientific topics including Biology and Anatomy. I enjoy working with all children and using experiments to solidify the scientific method. I have found that hands on learning is often the easiest to comprehend and can be an important teaching tool and when coupled with repetition and reinforcement of key points it can lead to a complete understanding of a complex subject.

Leslie C - Fairbanks, AK 99709 (35 mi) - Tutor - $36.00/hr.
My teaching style varies from child to child, depending on the need, but is always warm, supportive, enthusiastic, and ( I hope) fun. I believe that all children want to, and can learn, and that small successes should be celebrated, because I know that struggling learners can start to feel discouraged. I find that sharing my love of reading and learning, along with some humor and lots of positive reinforcement, is a great motivator to keep kids engaged in the process. I have had many years experience in reading instruction, teaching students ranging in age from pre-school to upper elementary. Most recently (2001-present), I have worked as a Reading Assistant for the Fairbanks School District, mainly instructing small groups of first, second and third graders who need more individual attention than they would get in a large group setting. Some of these students qualify for special

Lisa S - Fairbanks, AK 99775 (40.2 mi) - Tutor - $37.50/hr.
I am patient and dedicated to teaching the student not just math, but also to use their own textbook and resources to study on their own. When I tutor, I have another goal, second to having the student pass their math class: learning to study so they won't need to rely on a tutor.
I also have a flexible schedule, and can easily adapt to the student's learning style. In high school, I learned to love the formulaic simplicity of algebra and during my years at UAF, learned to fully appreciate the beauty and tricky complexity of Calculus. I enjoy extending this appreciation and understanding to anyone willing to ask. My first tutoring experience was for an adult first-time algebra student at UAA. I tutored again during the last semester of my degree with a better understanding of how math is applied to real life problems.
