I have tutored with elementary, middle, and high school students in all levels of math, science, english, and social studies.

I teach through repetition, practice, and patience. I want to help the student to the best of my ability, and will adapt to the learning style he/she finds most effective.

Rachael W. - Maryville, TN 37803 (24 mi) - Science Tutor - $23.00/hr.
From a family of teachers, getting concepts through to others, ones that I fully understand, is a practice that of which I find myself to be both very positive and successful.

Amanda R - Harriman, TN 37748 (6.5 mi) - Science Tutor - $34.50/hr.
I am currently an undergraduate student studying communications. I have held four collegiate journalism internships, two of which were federal internships in Oak Ridge, Tenn. In the past year, I served as assistant managing editor of my collegiate newspaper, The Oracle; served as assistant editor of the collegiate yearbook, The Eagle; and I served as a teaching assistant for the freshman introduction to journalism course at TN Tech University. This semester, I will serve as managing editor for both The Oracle and The Eagle, and I will continue to aid in teaching UNIV 1020. I will graduate with a B.S. in Communications December 19, 2009. I enjoy working with students. It seems that, in most cases, tutoring is essentially a confidence-builiding exercise. Yes, it's anout instructional leadership, but it's more about showing a student they can really achieve what they're setting out to do. I

Kathleen S - Knoxville, TN 37931 (7.6 mi) - Science Tutor - $35.50/hr.
Presently, I work as a teacher's assistant in special education. I earned a BA in English Literature from one of the finest private colleges in the Southeast. Maryville College encourages students to be life-long learners who seek cumulative growth through experiences. I am a published author and have organized and researched an original thesis paper. As a teacher's assistant, I work with learning disabled students in areas such as reading literacy and logical distinctions in meaning of symbols and signs in language. I have tutored children with various health disabilities such as ADD and ADHD as well as students with low spectrum autism. Education is the process of guiding children or adults in the experience of learning meaning of things. In other words, teaching words without establishing a proper sense of the meaning of those words dulls the intellectual life. I believe everyone

Laschinski E - Knoxville, TN 37923 (9.9 mi) - Science Tutor - $37.00/hr.
As a chemist for almost ten years at the labs in Oak Ridge, TN and 12 years of teaching experience in TN and MS, I am highly qualified to tutor chemistry. I haved earned a BS in chemistry as well as a MS in Science Education. During the last 5 years I have tutored Chemistry, Biology, Algebra I and II. I love the sciences and I love children; so what better way to express that love than to teach and tutor the sciences. I believe that all children are capable of learning. We as teachers and tutors have to discover the methods and techniques that works best for the individual student. I am patient and compassionate about finding the right teaching style fit for each student. I am rewarded most when I see that light bulb light up and the students says, " I get it now". What joy that brings to my heart.

Lori S - Knoxville, TN 37923 (10.9 mi) - Science Tutor - $35.50/hr.
I recognize that each child is unique and has the potential to succeed, and therefore it is important that they are provided with positive, productive guidance to enhance their learning experience. I understand that all individuals learn in different ways, and that embracing diversity is a key to successful teaching. I recently graduated from the University of Tennessee with a BA in psychology and a minor in child development. In my studies I have gained extensive knowledge on the growth and development of children and young adults. I have also learned various teaching and learning styles, problem solving techniques, and communication skills in which to facilitate the educational needs of children both individually and in small groups.

Kimberly R - Knoxville, TN 37921 (11.8 mi) - Science Tutor - $36.50/hr.
My teaching style is very matter-of-fact and flexible. Some students learn by listening, others by reading, and still more by doing. It is my job to determine which students need which type of teaching. It's important to never let the student feel I am judging his abilities in a negative manner while still making sure he learns from his mistakes. When getting my Bachelor's degree, English was my chosen major. I chose the subject because I love to read and write, and excel at both of those things. In high school and college, I tutored middle and high school - aged children. I was able to find and help those kids because my parents were teachers; thus, so were their friends who needed tutors. As a professional editor and writer, I have the experience necessary to help these kids grasp one of the harder languages, English. French was my language in high school and I took Russian in college.

Dawn S - Knoxville, TN 39722 (12.3 mi) - Science Tutor - $33.50/hr.
When teaching, I want to instill in each child a love for learning. I do this, first of all, by setting the mood of the classroom - meaning, I make it conducive for learning with an attitude of happiness and respect for each child; believing that I can find attributes that I like about each child, and making the atmosphere pleasant, cozy, and fun. Secondly, I instill the class rules with positive outcomes so the environment is always positive. Usually this takes about a week of consistency, then my class is ready to take off! Once they know the rules, know you are going to be consistent, and enjoy coming to your classroom, then, learning is fun! I taught for the public school system in Memphis, TN for 17 years with 15 of those years in the same school. I have taught kindergarten, first, second, and third grade and for 3 years I taught a second/third split class of exceptional studen

Jennifer K - Knoxville, TN 37919 (13.1 mi) - Science Tutor - $37.00/hr.
I have always felt compelled to help others achieve their dreams. I graduated with a bachelor's in psychology and began working at a residential alcohol and drug treatment facility for adolescents. There I assisted the education personnel in tutoring our clients. I helped our kids with math, science, and English, at all levels of education. My work experience in this position and in the positions that I was promoted to enhanced my writing skills, interpersonal relationships, and attention to detail. My teaching style is specific to the individual child and their needs. When I worked at the residential center, I had to teach alcohol and drug awareness classes. During that time is when I learned that encouragement, patience, and a variety of methods are essential to a child's academic success. A child looks to the teacher for the effective skills and tools to accomplish their dreams

Robert C - Knoxville, TN 37921 (13.3 mi) - Science Tutor - $56.00/hr.
I have been a full-time (and quite busy) professional tutor for the past five years. I currently work as an independent tutor through The Tutor Connection and Wyzant, as well as my personal tutoring service. While living in California in 2007, I was employed by the San Diego Board of Education as a tutor for the AVID program, a group style tutoring initiative to assist high school students with difficulties and increase their motivation to learn.

When I was in grammar school, high school, and college, I regularly tutored my friends in areas they had difficulty with. Through experience and research, I have developed a tutoring style that has helped countless students achieve unmeasured success. My students usually respond very well to my
