Catherine D - Bartlesville, OK 74006 (17.9 mi) - Poetry Tutor - $38.00/hr.
As a long-time instructor in English, both in public schools and in higher education, I have encountered many students of many different backgrounds, learning styles, and ages, in the classroom and online. I have taught in many areas of English-related courses. These courses have included writing, literature, reading, public speaking, report writing, film and humanities, and other liberal arts courses. Currently, I teach at a regional University in Business Communications, tutor, and substitute teach in my community. I especially value working with students by "starting where they are" and building a learning path together to reach the goals that the student has set for himself or herself. Meeting the student's needs -- rather than achieving my goals for your student -- comes first. My passion is in learning from each student first what those needs are. Then, by listening and learni

Whitney V - Sand Springs, OK 74063 (38 mi) - Poetry Tutor - $52.00/hr.
I have developed a style of teaching that allows students to focus on their strengths and use them to incorporate different methods to overcoming their weaknesses. I believe that learning is best experienced in an environment where open discussion is welcome. My experience has taught me that students thrive more when engaged in conversation, critical thinking, and application of material rather than in a simple lecture format. Furthermore, I have found that students have a better chance of excelling when they find an application of a topic interesting and are allowed to focus on that topic. Therefore, rather than telling a student how to learn, I prefer to engage him or her and allow the student to aid in directing the sessions. As a long-time student, I understand that a large part of a student's education occurs inside and outside the classroom, much of which is beneficial in a discuss

Tanecia D - Tulsa, OK 74106 (38.1 mi) - Poetry Tutor - $35.50/hr.
I love teaching and working with youth. I believe that children have various ways of learning so it is very important to cater to the childs learing style. I am positive that each child has the mindset to learn given the proper attention and environment. I am very patient, understanding, and easy to get along with. My goal is to make sure that your child leaves each tutoring session with a better understanding of the material they are learning, as well as the desire and will to put forth their best effort with any challenge they may face in an academic setting. With an understanding of the need for education, I have a bachelors degree in Management Information systems, a Masters degree in Business Management and am currently pursing a second Masters degree in Psychology. As a result of my work related experience and educational background, I have extensive knowledge in the areas of readi

Zach C - Owasso, OK 74055 (38.2 mi) - Poetry Tutor - $38.00/hr.
While in high school, I discovered my love for math and began tutoring classmates in that area. My interest in writing developed during my educational career at The University of Tulsa, where I had courses in advanced exposition and argumentation and writing for the professions along with literature classes in the areas of Russian and British Literature of the 18th Century, Eastern Literature, and Greek Literature. I also took courses in Spanish, including a composition course. I currently have contracts to publish 2 manuscripts in 2011, one being a compilation of poetry and the other being a research paper dealing with depression stemming from exercise withdrawal. I feel that we all have the aptitude to learn, yet each individual discovers that aptitude in a different manner. My first and most important goal is always to convey this to the student in an effort to let them know I believe

Abbygail L - Tulsa, OK 74103 (42.1 mi) - Poetry Tutor - $38.50/hr.
I believe the best way to help a child learn is to, "follow the child". I try to let the child find his own answers and simply be a cataylst between the materials and the child. It is in this way the child gains confidence and independence through the learning process.
I am patient, laid back, and passionate about education. I find great joy in seeing my students become excited about their studies. I like to help my students think outside the box and be creative with their ideas. I am a graduate of a private small private college with a high standard of academic excellence. I balanced my school work with playing college volleyball, therefore I know what it takes to be dedicated and work hard. I hold a bachelor's degree in History as well as teaching certification in the Montessori Method for ages 3-6 yrs. I have certification in Southern Appalachian Ecology earned from the Tremont
