Rorri B - Las Vegas, NV 89135 (33.5 mi) - Testing Strategies Tutor - $38.50/hr.
My teaching style is highly influenced by the type of student that I teach. As a teacher of deaf students, my teaching must be very visual and hands-on. I find this lends itself well to teaching students who might be struggling in a regular classroom environment as well. I always begin by activating any prior knowledge a student might have in a given area, then establishing the goals that need to be met, engaging the child with relevant activities, and going from guided instruction to independent practice. Since beginning college in 1994, I have been involved with teaching and/or tutoring students, hearing and deaf. My experience teaching ranges from preschool to high school, typically developing children to those with disabilities, from impoverished and affluent areas. My tutoring has been both with a nationwide tutoring chain, as well as with a privately owned company. I have tut

Tiffany W - Las Vegas, NV 89148 (35.4 mi) - Testing Strategies Tutor - $36.50/hr.
My teaching style is based on the idea that each person learns at their own pace, in their own style. It takes patience and creativity to find the ways that the individual is going to learn the best. Using the characteristics that I feel I possess, it is my ultimate goal to provide an individual with the tools that they need to learn and retain the subject matter of their studies. I believe that using my style of teaching can provide a successful learning experience for anyone. I believe that I can make a difference in someone's life just by taking the time to teach them what they want to know in a way that they are able to understand. I have a good understanding of many different subjects, due to my ongoing search to learn new things. I have always loved learning, and I strive to share my love of learning with others. While in high school, I focused my studies on art and foreign l

Laura S - Las Vegas, NV 89131-4665 (35.9 mi) - Testing Strategies Tutor - $37.00/hr.
Over the past fifteen years, most of my teaching skills have been in non-traditional settings. Providing education for diverse age populations in the area of community programs taught me a multitude of instructional strategies. In 2001, the lead special education teacher at a high school asked me to offer assistance. I was able to observe different teaching styles in classroom settings and to provide individual instruction to students with varying learning styles. My most recent position at Total Education Solutions offered me the opportunity to be in a classroom setting. Although my placement was with one child, my presence and skills in teaching and behavior modification called me to work in small groups and with other individual students. I adapted therapies and curriculum in order to fit the needs of the children. Working in conjunction with the Los Angeles Unified School Dist

Menyaun M - Las Vegas, NV 89148 (36.1 mi) - Testing Strategies Tutor - $35.50/hr.
I believe as a tutor one should be open-minded and able to relate to their students. I possess this quality. I have a history of making and maintaining a strong connection with my students. I believe that if I show interest in their life as well as their studies they become more comfortable with me, therefore creating better communication and respect. I am a full-time college student. My strengths are math and science. During my first year of college, I took five math classes and received an "A" in all of them. Based on my ACT scores, I began college in Calculus I. Upon enrollment at UNLV, my goal was to become a forensic pathologist, but my interests have steered towards business. I am now pursuing a triple major in Marketing, International Business, and Secondary Education along with minors in Accounting, Finance, and International Language. I feel confident in tutoring all levels o

Kris L - Las Vegas, NV 89129 (36.1 mi) - Testing Strategies Tutor - $36.00/hr.
My teaching style is unique. I make sure that students learn by doing, not by watching me do problems. As a student i always found that the most effective teachers used a style that allowed the student to do problems and ask questions. Today i put these practices to use in my tutoring. I believe that no child is a lost cause and that any child can learn given the right circumstances. I have been a tutor throughout my undergraduate career. I have been employed by a tutoring service as well as independently. I have tutored all levels of high school Mathematics as well as most undergraduate level mathematics courses. I have 3 years experience in these various fields.

Linda T - Las Vegas, NV 89145 (36.7 mi) - Testing Strategies Tutor - $34.50/hr.
I am a hands on teacher/tutor. I believe in active learning and student participation. I believe all children can learn, and that we all have different learning styles. I enjoy tapping into a specific child's learning style, and teaching him/her strategies to support that learning style. I am flexible and patient, and my years of experience give me the ability to understand each individual student's needs, and align my tutoring to accommodate those needs. I have been a teacher or tutor for over fifteen years. I have taught all grades, K - 12, as well as adults. The majority of my experience has been with students with disabilities, as well as students learning English as a Second Language. My work with adult and high school students has been primarily in English Language Arts, Reading and Writing strategies, and study skills. I have extensive training in teaching English using a

Mary B - Las Vegas, NV 89108 (38.4 mi) - Testing Strategies Tutor - $39.50/hr.
I have always had the heart of a teacher. I spent many hours as a child playing school. I am committed to mastery of skills especially writing, reading, and math. I am an avid learner and enjoy learning through many different modalities. As a result, I enjoy finding creative ways to engage my students. I also believe that students need to learn to discipline themselves to be successful even when learning is not as "fun" as they might desire. I have worked to help my students overcome areas of difficulty and become confident, versatile, self-directed learners. My heart beats in sync with the desire of dedicated teachers to promote character, achievement, citizenship, and hope. After receiving my BA in Psychology, I enrolled in graduate courses to become a licensed K-8 teacher. For the past twenty-three years, I have been a K-12 homeschool teacher, teaching my eight children. I have instru

Cara S - Las Vegas, NV 89103 (38.6 mi) - Testing Strategies Tutor - $38.50/hr.
I am a very energetic and enthusiastic person, so working with kids was always what I wanted to do. I love the relationships that develop and how the relationships affect the student performance. I am a very hands on, real life learner myself so I tend to do that with my students. Overall, I want to make kids excited to take ownership over their learning. When they feel like it is their own, they invest more in to it, making every thing they do more successful. I graduated from an accredited Education College in Holland. Michigan. Hope College was a four year Liberal Arts college that required me to have 5 field experiences throughout my semesters in a variety of areas, as well as a full semester of student teaching. During this experience I worked in Primary, Upper Elementary, Middle School, ESL, and Special Education classrooms. I student taught in a 6th grade Language Arts classroom.

Courtney J - Las Vegas, NV 89139 (38.7 mi) - Testing Strategies Tutor - $36.50/hr.
During my five years of undergraduate work, I was very involved in the area of child education and care. I was a volunteer for Big Brothers/Big Sisters in Wisconsin, where I worked on elementary basic skills and study skills with an eight year old boy with autism. I also tutored a ten year old boy and a six year old boy in all general areas of study during my summers, with an emphasis on reading comprehension, grammar, and organization and study skills. My studies at the Universite de Caen Basse-Normandie, in Normandy, France, enhanced both my comprehension and my expression of the French language to the point where I would be confident teaching the building blocks of the language to children at the elementary, middle, or high school level. I currently work at Easter Seals of Southern Nevada Early Intervention Program as a Child Developmental Specialist. I provide what is called "speci

Kori D - Las Vegas, NV 89139 (38.8 mi) - Testing Strategies Tutor - $34.00/hr.
As a student I was an honors student who maintained an "A" average in high school, college, and in my masters program. Before earning a BS in Psychology, I completed two years as an Elementary Education major. Although I decided to focus my career as a therapist, I have utilized this education by becoming both a substitute teacher and tutor. My education has allowed me to hone my language,literature, mathematical, research and study skills. I have tutored various students in mathematics, statistics, social studies, English, and reading and comprehension. I believe that all children have the ability to succeed. The key is to allow a child to feel empowered to have mastery over the material. Often time teachers explain new material in only one way. As a tutor I strive to find your child's learning style to help them understand the material, and learn good study habits early. I am patient a

I believe in making teaching challenging and fun. Students need to be engaged in the day to day activities in order to learn. However, discipline is also essential. While I was a public relations professional, several people told me that I was a natural teacher. At a certain point in my career, I decided to give it a try and found out they were absolutely right! Although I did teach part time for several years during college and graduate school, this was the first time I made it my livelihood.

Bob E - Las Vegas, NV 89139 (39.1 mi) - Testing Strategies Tutor - $37.00/hr.
I get along well with all types of students and feel that building a good rapport is the key to successful tutoring. As a high school drop-out, who later achieved a college degree, I have the ability to connect with students who often struggle in a mainstream classroom setting. I have experience dealing with students of all ages. I am a firm believer of hands-on learning and feel that students need to take ownership of their own learning. I have had a variety of experiences in education from middle school through high school. I primarily have taught high school biology and aquatic science; however, through all my years as an educator, I have been heavily involved in tutoring reading and math. I spent three years as a special education teacher's aide, working directly with all levels of mainstreamed special ed students in a variety of classroom settings. Recently, I worked in a Comm

I owned and operated a private school for 4 years and homeschooled 9th graders prior to my experience in public school. I enjoy working with children and have a great rapport with them.
I start by identifying a student's strengths and weaknesses. I am able to successfully differentiate instruction and promote self esteem. I feel that all students deserve the opportunity to excel to
their fullest potential.
