Gabriel C. - Saint Paul, MN 55118 (19.1 mi) - $15/hr.

I'm currently a student at Carleton College in Northfield, Minnesota and I've covered many subjects in my 15 years of education. I've learned many of them well enough to teach them to my younger sister, who has ensured I review every subject two years after I complete it, rather than forget it forever. I have also helped many of my classmates understand various concepts as we learned them, which allowed me to improve my own understanding and my ability to explain things in ways that differed from the ways that didn't work coming from teachers. I specialize in understanding individual challenges and struggles and adapting my teaching and providing clarifying examples. My explanations are thorough and enhanced by my focus on listening to people.

I have teaching and tutoring experience at the high school and college level. I love expanding their minds and sharing my knowledge with them. I will be a graduate of the University of Wisconsin Superior in just a few short weeks with my degree in English and Communications. I will be moving to Champlin just after the first of the year and am looking to continue tutoring. Being overwhelmed with information that is just not making sense can be frustrating and most teachers don't have the time to give individual attention to each student. Ever student has different needs and I can help them focus on areas they doesn't understand as well as others. I can also show students that studying can be fun.

I have taught children, high-school students, college students, and most recently, adults. Besides my experience working with people of all ages, I have also worked with many different cultures and skill levels. My exposure to teaching people with such diverse backgrounds has been very rewarding and has given me a more well-rounded teaching style. I am skilled at adjusting lessons to maximize the student's learning. This is especially useful when tutoring because, unlike teaching a large group of students, tutoring allows for more flexibility and custom tailoring of a lesson. This is also what makes tutoring such a useful tool. The personal attention gives students an advantage over others who don't seek the extra help. I am a congenial and creative teacher who is always patient with students. I enjoy helping them succeed. I am committed to the study of languages as is reflected

John C - Blaine, MN 55449 (9 mi) - SAT - Verbal Tutor - $37.00/hr. John C - Blaine, MN 55449 (9 mi) - SAT - Verbal Tutor - $37.00/hr.

I have a BA in English and a Master's and Ph.D. in German (Germanic Linguistics). I have taught English literature as a substitute in junior and senior high schools, college level German, linguistics, English reading and writing and English as a Second language. I have taught and tutored children and adult learners. My teaching experience has been in Germany, California and Minnesota. I also tutored ACT/SAT in Minnesota. I enjoy teaching students of all ages, individually or in groups. I find the Socratic method most useful, and with children this translates into making the subject (i.e. German grammar) seem like a puzzle that, with some effort, can be solved. I think students are best served when they can discover these answers for themselves.

One thing I have learned in my many years as a tutor is that each student is unique. I try to be flexible in my approach. With grammar and mechanics, I have found that a directive manner is often the best approach; sometimes, however, students require clarification of ideas and organization, in which case I pose questions and share observations, rather than instruct. With reading assignments, clarification of thesis, organization, and vocabulary are usually most helpful. Overall, I try to be as student-centered as possible in my approach to tutoring, without sacrificing a commitment to high quality instruction. I have a strong background in English, and am currently working toward a Master's degree at the University of St. Thomas. In addition to my strengths in academic research and writing, I have written solicitation letters and grant proposals for a nonprofit. I have tutored for

I recently graduated from Washington University in St. Louis, one of the nation's elite research universities, so I feel that I now have a true appreciation for academic excellence. I earned a BA in Psychology with a minor in Jewish, Islamic and Near Eastern Studies. I will begin pursuing an MS in Industrial/Organizational Psychology at San Diego State University this fall. I have years of experience in writing and research skills, as well as a broad background in the liberal arts. I spent 2 summers tutoring an elementary school age student in basic Hebrew and I served as a tutor for an academic enrichment program during my senior year of high school. I am eager to share my knowledge and expertise with other motivated students! In tutoring situations, I like to lead by example.

Throughout my four years at Marquette I tutored in three programs including the federally recognized TRIO program to help advance the college prospects of inner city minorities. I tutored in high school and college level math, science, social studies, English and literature. At Marquette I earned a BA in history and theology. I also studied abroad and at Marquette in Italian language, and now can read and speak Italian with advanced conversational fluency. My senior thesis will be published in Milwaukee History. Most recently I have taught Street Law, a legal education program for juniors and seniors in high school. I have been told I am a patient and imaginative teacher. I have been a camp counselor at a nature camp for six summers and have tutored and taught for an additional 5 years. In this time I learned how to help children learn, and how to make it fun.

I love helping people succeed. I have an ability to show someone a new way of looking at things, which is sometimes the only thing keeping a person from understanding. I also have a great ability at reading someone and noticing when they don't understand. Sometimes people are too embarrassed to speak up and ask for help, even when I'm there for that exact reason. I think that everyone has the ability to learn anything, they just sometimes need someone to explain things to them in a new way. I also worked part-time as a supplemental tutor for students of many ages. At two different tutoring centers I taught reading and mathematics to elementary aged students. I also taught reading, writing, Algebra, Geometry, and study skills to high school aged students. I also helped students of all ages with homework from school in many subjects including; Algebra, Geometry, Calculus, Chemistry,

Every child learns differently. In a world where we corporately streamline everything so that it all comes out pre-packaged and exactly the same we often lose sight of how unique each person is. I find that listening carefully to a child's reasons for having difficulty can help you to better understand how to help them learn. I find that children are often given too little credit - especially children with special needs. All children can be more than the world expects them to be. I just enjoy helping them realize that. My degree in psychology has enabled me to understand all children better, and to work especially well with special needs students. I have experience tutoring students from the ages of 3 to 40+. Subject-wise I have taught Writing, ESL, Spanish and Karate. I have even given self-esteem building talks to grade-schoolers and middle-schoolers. My experiences as a writing tutor,

I have done a lot of teaching and tutoring, both with adults and young people. Most of my experience, though, comes from working with high school and junior high school students. I spent the majority of that time as a tutor/ mentor and would work with the students one on one or in small groups, both in the library or in the classroom. It was really the most wonderful experience and I was able to provide tremendous benefits to the students on both an academic and personal level. I really do place something of a premium on being able to connect with all of my students on an academic and personal level. I believe that this helps them as they know that their teacher and tutor cares about them and their future and, as such, this causes them to grow and excel. I can attest to such things happening with many of my students and for that I am incredibly thankful.

I became interested in tutoring during my three years of graduate study at Princeton Theological Seminary. Studying theology in my undergraduate and graduate work required me to invest strongly in multiple subjects such as history, philosophy, languages, politics and literature. This equipped me to tutor multiple subjects at various levels. I greatly enjoy teaching children at all levels. Through a variety of approaches and encouraging persistence, I believe children can gain knowledge of and proficiency in all subjects. A multi-disciplinary approach ensures a child's growth has both depth and breadth. I aim to teach in a way that develops the intellect and cultivates the character of my students so that they become critical and virtuous members of and contributors to society.

My teaching style is personalized to the student. Each student has their own strengths and challenges and a good teacher will build on the former and mitigate the latter. I work with students to help them identify their areas of frustration and build confidence by setting achievable goals. I help students connect with and comprehend text by teaching and using reading strategies. I have a strong educational background and teaching experience. I was inducted into Phi Beta Kappa and Sigma Tau Delta (the English Honor Society) while graduating Magna Cum Laude from Luther College. At Teachers College, Columbia University, I was inducted into Kappa Delta Pi, the Educational Honor Society.

I have enjoyed working closely with students of diverse backgrounds and abilities as a Writing Consultant, ESL tutor, and Teaching Assistant. I've had the pleasure of working with students who were puzzling over the minutiae of how to properly format a senior thesis to APA format and nervous freshman approaching their first English paper with trepidation. I am a firm believer that the job of a tutor is to work with the student, not with their texts or problems. Our motto at Carleton's "The Write Place" used to be, "We work with writers, not with their writing," and I believe this is the attitude any tutor should take towards the process of tutoring: student first. As recent graduate of Carleton College (magna cum laude), my experiences in the diverse fields of English and Cognitive Science over the past four years have given me a deep appreciation and enthusiasm for the unique license a

I am in the Education field to make a difference in student’s lives. I hope to do this through instruction and example. I believe these two elements intertwined and essential for any educator. I am value the “Teacher as facilitator” education model. Today, I classify my teaching style as a constructivist theory with humanist elements. I believe that a combination of these three models will ensure the greatest amount of learning for students as I prepare them for further education. In my experience, working with at-risk, failing, or youth in general requires a level of acceptance from the student. Educators cannot reach that level if they talk down to their students. I feel I am able to bridge that gap and reach students on a personal level. I will graduate from the College of Saint John’s University this spring with a major in English Education.

Students learned to revise thoughtfully at all stages of the writing process, focus on developing expository and critical writing skills, and to synthesize, integrate and document sources used to support and sustain an argumentative thesis statement. I placed emphasis on individual contact, close reading practices, and developing powers of clear expression. In addition, I tutored women living in transitional housing while they prepared to take the G.E.D. exam. Assisted stu
