Jay S. - Athens, AL 35613 (16.8 mi) - Literature Tutor - $35.00/hr.
I have taught American Lit, European Lit, World Lit, and Modern Lit in the classroom. I prefer the Socratic method of asking/answering questions and discussion, but I am more than capable of diverting to a more lecture style of teaching if that is what works with the student. I tailor my teaching style to the strengths of the student. I am a teacher with 7 years of classroom experience. My degree is in English, but I have taught in many other areas, including math, history, logic, and rhetoric. I have also tutored many students in grammar and writing, as well as Algebra I and II. I have been responsible for teaching books to students from American Literature (Hawthorne and Hemingway), European Literature (Dickens and Shakespeare), and World Literature (Gilgamesh and Homer).

Genett B - Huntsville, AL 35810 (1 mi) - Literature Tutor - $32.50/hr.
My teaching style is center around my philosophy of education. My philosophy of education consist of the beliefs that all students are entitled to a quality education that effectively prepares them for competition in the job markets. Each student deserves an education that teaches critical thinking skills and the importance of the self in relations to the world. Every classroom needs an educator that remains abreast of the ever changing information relevant to school curriculum and policies. Every student is entitled to a learning environment in which they feel safe and respected, a learning environment that encourages academic and social growth while fostering a sustained sense of academic accomplishment within the student I began my teaching experience in childhood.

Kenny D - Huntsville, TN 35811 (3.8 mi) - Literature Tutor - $38.00/hr.
In many ways, learning can be customized to fit the individual interests of students, and I challenge myself to make each session one filled with new ideas and topics. I believe that the combination of hobbies and personal interests, along with the subject matter is the key to learning. While focusing on science, I strive to introduce other related topics and probe for what each student is interested in.
Further, I believe in teaching through learning. Students love to express their own ideas about science, math, and civics, and through challenging these ideas, a teacher can instruct, while simultaneously empowering the student. Completion of a BSBA degree in Management of Information Systems has given me valuable experience in a wide array of business functions as well as a team based and case driven experience over four years. The strongest of my skills are in reading, math, and tec

Courtney F - Huntsville, AL 35801 (5 mi) - Literature Tutor - $36.00/hr.
For the past 2.5 years, I have been in middle and high schools working with English teachers and students. Though I often worked as a substitute, I was able to teach students lessons and work left by teachers who knew of my experience and knowledge of Language Arts. I received a MA in English Education from University of Alabama in Huntsville as well as a BA in English and Theatre from Union University. I am Highly Qualified with the state of Alabama and have been trained through the Alabama Reading Initiative. I have spent years working with students and am comfortable teaching and tutoring students of all ages. I believe in interactive learning. Students learn best when they are in a safe environment, which I can provide. I have experience breaking down large assignments and helping students to accomplish one task at a time. My goal is to help students see that any project (writ

Leigh D - Huntsville, AL 35805 (5.4 mi) - Literature Tutor - $50.00/hr.
The first thing I do with any new student is identify his or her learning style so that I may incorporate those specific strategies into my lesson for an effective and personalized learning experience. My lessons are very interactive, and a main aspect is to nurture critical thinking. After setting up a situation, I will pose problems for the student to solve. Critical thinking is necessary in order to navigate foreign grammar and truly understand the material. I began to realize my love and aptitude for tutoring as a volunteer Japanese instructor for the Daikin home-stay program in 2006. The next two years I volunteered my time with Rosie's International Services tutoring Spanish. At the beginning of the Spring 2008 semester, the Head of the Foreign Language Department, Dr. Maier, submitted my name to a tutoring department at UAH, where I worked tutoring Spanish, Japanese, Latin, Chines

Samantha M - Huntsville, AL 35805 (5.4 mi) - Literature Tutor - $56.50/hr.
My teaching style depends entirely on the student. With patients and flexibility, a teacher can provide a student with the desire to learn on their own. With guidance, that student can remain motivated and willing to seek his or her own answers. It is important to me to impart that desire, because it aids the student in all further endeavors. I also enjoy playing to student’s strengths to motivate them. One example is a young boy who had difficulty counting past eleven. He enjoyed art, and drawing though, and through intertwining the two he grew to enjoy math as well. History has taught me various skills and understandings that other fields may lack. Not only do I have excellent writing and reading skills, I am apt at thinking analytically. Also, my research skills are strong, regardless of the subject. I have also spent three years studying German in order to grasp the language and unde

Dave J - New Market, AL 35761 (5.6 mi) - Literature Tutor - $34.50/hr.
I have a BS in Physics, Magna Cum Laude, and I specialized in astrophysics. As an undergraduate, I tutored mathematics at all levels from beginning algebra to calculus as well as the engineering physics sequence. I was a Teaching Assistant for lower division astronomy and physics labs, providing hands-on instruction as well as giving lectures. As a graduate student I also taught several physics labs tailored to pre-med students. I also have significant vocational experience in molecular biology, biochemistry and genetics. Since I remember my days as a student, I am very patient with students who’ve never been exposed to certain subjects or materials. I believe you can only move onto more complex areas after you have gained a thorough understanding of the basics. I prefer to use real-world examples to illustrate abstract concepts. In areas like mathematics and physics, I teach stud

Bianca H - Huntsville, AL 35806 (6.3 mi) - Literature Tutor - $39.00/hr.
I enjoy pretented not to know the work myself which allows them to help me. It helps me to see what they already know and to see how much I need to help them know. I use this approach to boost selfesteem in students. I'm currently working for Huntsville City Schools Extended Day Program. I've been working there for 3 years. In those 3 years, I also worked in the work study program, working at the Richard Showers Center's after school program. While, at the Showers Center, I was placed with an ADHD and Dyslexic student. My duties included, helping him find different ways to learn the material and I went through a series of repetitional exercises. I continued to tutor him for 1 year.
