Chelsea F. - Greenwood, AR 72936 (23.5 mi) - Grammar Tutor - $37.50/hr.
I'm extremely patient. I try to find creative ways to keep the kids engaged in the material, making sure that learning is fun. Since graduating from my undergraduate program in 2007, I have had a passion for teaching and learning. My first teaching experience was working in Camden, New Jersey. I served as an intern art teacher for at-risk first through third graders in an after school/summer school program. Shortly thereafter I started my Master's program, where I integrated my passion for teaching into my capstone project. I was given the opportunity to teach at-risk fifth through eighth graders basic life and business skills, which included everything from how to calculate simple interest to how to apply for college. Around the same time, my goddaughter, now eleven, was diagnosed with learning disabilities. I began tutoring her in spelling and reading, and it became a great way for us

I am a firm believer that all children can learn and that each child has a individual method in which the can and will learn subject matter. I have a variety of ways in which to make learning fun and accomplish the task of meeting educational goals that your child may be lacking. I believe in starting where your child is and moving forward at the rate and pace that is most benificial to your child. I believe that all students should have an individual education plan and progress at a pace that assures succcess is knowledge that will be maintained. I have been an educator in the field of education for the past 21 years. Three of those years were spent in upper elementary in the area of Language Arts. Nine of those years were spent in a first grade classroom were reading with a phonics approach ws used in cross curricular subjects daily. The remainder of the years of service has bee

Kathryn L - Fort Smith, AR 72903 (17.3 mi) - Grammar Tutor - $34.50/hr.
I believe the most important skill we can impart to children is a love for learning, and a curiosity about life. That, with a firm foundation in reading and math, will take them anywhere they want to go. I do utilize more of a socratic rather than a didactic approach, and endeavor to involve the learner in discovery as much as possible. I believe that everyone can learn if given the proper encouragement. Upon graduation from college, I taught 7th grade English for two years, then Gifted & Talented grades 4-6. I left the field of teaching for marriage and babies. My husband was in the military, so we moved quite often. I homeschooled our two children for most of their elementary years. After that I taught 7th grade Algebra at a private school. I have tutored adults and children off and on over the years in various subjects, from reading to anatomy and math.

After obtaining a list of objectives, I like to offer a pop quiz to set a baseline. Thereafter, topics are divided in number of days available for preparation. Most important topics and topics not well understood get time and individualized priority.
Offer a challenge test at the end. Harder than the test students will face but no so hard as to lower self steem. While in college thought CCD classes to 4th grade students

Quoc P - Fort Smith, AR 72903 (20.3 mi) - Grammar Tutor - $40.00/hr.
My teaching style is a collage of teaching styles. I am well aware that students retain and use information in numerous ways. Sometimes, I facilitate from the side, allowing the students to take hands on control with the information, at other periods, I might lecture on the topic and then question and discuss issues provided from what was just read. One just has to be acquainted with the learners' style and then the subject, lesson plan, and displaying of information can be customized more suitedly, to the student. Any student can learn, they just have to have the information provided to them in a manner where they can retain it and make it useful. I earned a bachelors degree in English Literature and a minor in Education. During these undergraduate years, I helped student teach regular English courses ranging from reading comprehension, essay writing, and literary analysis in various sc

Teresa S - Greenwood, AR 72936 (20.4 mi) - Grammar Tutor - $34.50/hr.
I enjoy teaching and working with children of all ages. I feel any person regardless of age can learn. Each learns to their own preferred learning style. First, an analysis of student skills must be taken to ensure foundational skills are sufficient. Next, students need an explanation of new material; I prefer a hands-on approach. This needs to be given in such a way that builds on previous knowledge with minimal confusion. Lastly, I feel students need practice with instant feedback, repetition and continuous review of weak skills. I have a BS is Mathematics, which has given me the knowledge and confidence to teach various levels of Mathematics. I have participated in research programs which have given me a thorough understanding of how to prepare research papers. During the last decade I have taught and tutored in mathematics, reading, and study skills with a high level of succe

Sherri L - Van Buren, AR 72956 (23.6 mi) - Grammar Tutor - $33.50/hr.
I feel teaching is a calling. I believe all children have gifts, but we teachers must learn how to reach them. I believe in the Multiple Intelligence theory that if students and teachers know best how a student learns, this will help him or her become more successful. I do not use a textbook when teaching. I believe students learn best by creating lessons that make the learning come alive and realistic. I believe that all students can learn if they are willing to put a little elbow grease into the process. I have been a public school teacher for eighteen years. I have taught in both Arkansas and Texas. I have taught English, Gifted and Talented English classes, Gifted and Talented seminar classes. I am currently teaching Gifted and Talented Social Studies. I have taught grades 2-9 and 11th grade. I feel I have a very strong grammar background. I love writing, and through the

I have been teaching since 1986. I have taught in the healthcare field through a Vocational Technical Institute, University and Private Education Center. I am currently applying for the Master's Program in Education at the University of Arkansas, Fayetteville. I hope to begin in the Fall. I have had experience teaching all levels of learners and have the patience to help anyone. I have tutored many people with anatomy and physiology, medical terminology, EKG and english courses. I believe in education and have the initiative to help anyone who needs assistance in the learning process. My teaching style is has proven to work with many students. The most important issue with tutoring is to identify where the student has the most difficulty. There are many ways to present material, such as discussion, visual effects and hands-on. What I have learned is that many people can learn throu
