Eddie P - orono, ME 04473 (1.2 mi) - Earth Science Tutor - $36.50/hr.
My teaching style is structured with my following a pre-determined outlined agenda which ordinarily would have an area designated for issues that the students wish to raise. Here is an example of my preferred prelab lecture:
call class roll/roster
my name
course name and number
priorities of the course
problems I recognized while grading previous assignment
give floor open to students for questions or issues
the lab concept for today's lab
demonstrate lab techniques/relevant calculations if necessary
give floor open to students for issues/questions
start lab All of my teaching experience in chemistry comes from my teaching General Chemistry Labs while pursuing Graduate Studies. This experience relates to my issuing pre-lab lectures prior to lab starting and this basically was designed to summarize the lab and work through example problems or demonstrations.

Brent C - Bangor, ME 04402 (7.6 mi) - Earth Science Tutor - $37.50/hr.
As a graduate from one of the top Liberal Arts schools in New England, I helped tutor college students in English Composition for one semester. Before I changed my major, I was Secondary English Education, which translates into training to be a high school English teacher. I substituted and did my practicum which gives me about a year's worth of experience. I have a passion for reading and writing that I would love to share with a struggling student or students. I also play multiple instruments and could help teach that as well. I love creating a sense of wonder and exploration as well as critical thinking. I like to incorporate the children's interests into what it is they are trying to study. I am patient, understanding, and approachable. I believe that teachers are overworked sometimes in classroom settings and that some students get overlooked when they need a little more time to gra

Deanna K - Bangor, ME 04401 (7.6 mi) - Earth Science Tutor - $35.00/hr.
Working with people, particularly children, has always been a passion of mine. Through the psychology program at Husson College I was able to gain a better understanding of human interaction, interpersonal relationships, as well as to obtain further insight on the foundation of the cognitive wiring in which we all possess. I also have a 6 year old daughter, who I have found to be the key to my drive in watching all children achieve academic success. I think the process starts with parents but branches out into the world of educators, and truly is a battle that can be won as long as there is always a core group of people committed to each child's success in the classroom. As a current graduate student I have had the opportunity to learn a great deal about the effective techniques and skills it takes for one to succeed within the classroom. I have so far earned my BS in Clinical Psychology

Bryan W - Lincoln, ME 04457 (29.3 mi) - Earth Science Tutor - $39.00/hr.
I have a variety of experience in multiple disciplines within natural science and am currently a Geology MSc candidate at the University of New Brunswick and will be defending my thesis in Summer of 2010. For the past two years I have had a large exposure to both field and lab work surrounding Fe-Mn Deposits and worked as a teaching assistant.
Since November of 2008, I have authored five published abstracts and extended abstracts for both Canadian and American conferences and served as a technical program editor for the International Applied Geochemistry Symposium in 2009. I am also currently working on two full length publications on stratigraphy and geochemistry of my MSc. project. For the past two years I have worked as a teaching assistant for the University of New Brunswick within the duration of my MSc. in Geology.

Johanna S - Trenton, ME 04605 (31.1 mi) - Earth Science Tutor - $34.00/hr.
Children learn in different way, and have different levels of enthusiasm for different subjects. I think that the way to encourage a child's success is to identify the ways in which the students learns best, and to understand what subjects/topics interest them. If you can relate to a child, your ability to motivate them and encourage them is amplified. I like to challenge students and to encourage them to think on their own. I believe positive reinforcement is important to children whose self-esteem might be low due to perceived lack of academic ability. Through my studies in Environmental issues and Landscape design, I have taken many writing-intensive classes, science courses and geography courses. As a graduate student, I spent significant time writing and focusing on grammatical topics of technical writing. Also, I have several years of experience working with young students as an ed

Richard B - Mount Desert, ME 04660 (37.5 mi) - Earth Science Tutor - $51.50/hr.
I believe that you must approach education by meeting the student where he or she is rather having the student conform to your style. Therefore I embrace an eclectic style. Each student will present with some king of dominant learning style. They will be primarily visual, auditory, conceptual or experiential. It is my job to discover that style in the teaching process and direct my approach to that student. I taught with the Bangor adult education program in the early 1980's as a graduate student in educational psychology. I taught adults a variety of subjects math, English and GED preparation at that time.
I also taught English as a Second language with them.
I also hold a masters in education at the University of Maine at Orono that I have not listed in the formal education section. I reserved that section for relevant finance and accounting information. But having said that,
