Elizabeth J - Rimrock, AZ 86335 (18.3 mi) - Literature Tutor - $35.00/hr.
After many years in the customer service industry; I returned back to school to acquire my Bachelors Degree in Human Services/Management. Throughout the past 10 years I have been a volunteer with the Child Crisis Center in Mesa, Arizona. My duties there include mentoring, monitoring children ranging from infancy to twelve years of age.
Due to my customer service background I have excellent communication skills. My education with The University of Phoenix has left me with a wealth of academic achievements. Eight years ago my nephew became part of the Arizona juvenile system. Having dealt with all that entails, I made the decision to make a difference in childrens lives. It is my belief that children need positive role models in their life beyond the mother and father. I was lucky to have such role models in my life and would like the opportunity to be one myself. I have laid b

Charlotte C - Camp Verde, AZ 86322 (22.6 mi) - Literature Tutor - $32.50/hr.
My approach is to assess the needs of the individual. What are the learning goals? To pass a class, excel at certain content, or improve grades? This is important to understand so that we are both moving toward an identical objective and can travel together to that end. I am able to design a learning strategy for all content but particularly am knowledgeable in all social sciences and comprehension areas. I am an educator by training, experience, and passionate interest. My Ph.D. in Instructional Technology has enabled me to assist all students with their learning challenges by devising specific and customized strategies that help each individual master content. I have been in adult learning positions in both corporate and higher education environments and would like to teach people of all ages how to learn what they need to know.

Ian O - Cornville, AZ 86325 (31.6 mi) - Literature Tutor - $37.50/hr.
As a former paraprofessional with a Master's Degree in Social Work I have worked with kids in the past behaviorally and academically. I have a solid grasp of English, Grammar, Social Studies, and Mathematics. I enjoy working with children of all ages. I feel my career in social work has allowed me to become more centered on compassion as a means of education, and engaging the child in the learning process while being compassionate. Children typically learn best when in a positive, comfortable situation. I would like them to feel comfortable enough to feel like they can be their best around me.

Pam H - Sedona, AZ 86336 (32.1 mi) - Literature Tutor - $39.50/hr.
I am able to make personal contact with my students and find their strengths. I use those strengths, which they might not even think they have, to encourage them and move into the subject areas they are having trouble with. I am a professional editor and journalist with 20 years of experience. I have also tutored in ESL and 8-12 Language Arts and have worked as a substitute teacher in both.

Mary W - Sedona, AZ 86336 (32.4 mi) - Literature Tutor - $31.50/hr.
I love teaching and working with children of all ages. I believe in encouraging children to discover what they are to learn instead of rote learning for most things, and I also believe in establishing automaticity for some tasks, such as math facts and geometry theorems. I believe that all children are capable of learning with the right approach. It is important to persist in teaching a concept from different angles until the child "gets it." A good educator can make a world of difference to a child. I am a strong proponent of reinforcing a child's strengths through positive encouragement and exhibiting an enthusiasm for the subject at hand to foster interest on the part of the student. I have a degree in Math and I am currently 3/4 complete for a Masters in Elem. Education w/Certif. I have been a substitute teacher for 2 years, w/1 long term sub teaching position of 3 mos at the elem

Lisa S - Cottonwod, AZ 86326 (32.7 mi) - Literature Tutor - $39.00/hr.
An alum of Bradley University, I graduated magna cum laude and as a member of two honor societies. I hold a BA in English, am a Theatre minor, and am currently seeking a teaching license. While student teaching in Illinois, both my observation instructor and teaching adviser frequently complimented me on my creative teaching tactics, overall knowledge of English, and organization and determination. Literature analysis and writing are my specialties. Currently, I am a professional writer and manager for a Speech and Debate website, thus my skills fostered at University have continued to grow post graduation. I firmly believe that education is the secret to future success. I also feel that everyone has the ability to learn and should be pushed to their personal limits. Trying to make learning as interesting and exciting as possible, by using various techniques, is the best way to eng

Terra I - cottonwood, AZ 86326 (33.9 mi) - Literature Tutor - $58.00/hr.
I have taught in a variety of educational institutions including; private schools, public schools, charter schools, boarding schools, tutoring, and group homes. I have built music programs from the ground up, as well as having taught a variety of ESL/ELD classes. I also have experience in teaching reading and writing and the middle school levels, and AIMS Science classes. I believe that all students can be successful, it's just a matter of finding the right lever to make education enjoyable and relevant in their own lives. I successfully use cross-ciriculum education in order to teach students at a higher level of Bloom's, thus insuring greater retention rates. I use scaffolding to build upon prior knowledge in order to keep new information relevant to the student. I have a great passion for education and for helping the students reach their full potential in a way that makes them w

Ryan B - Phoenix, AZ 85331 (44.8 mi) - Literature Tutor - $39.00/hr.
I have helped many students with various subjects in which I specialize. I've aided people of Hispanic origin to speak and understand English, as well as help English speakers with their Spanish speaking skills. For example, I currently work in a housekeeping office and have daily "students" who ask me specific questions in regards to English. In addition, I have trained managers in my department in basic housekeeping vocabulary, as well help to improve their conversational skills. Because I've always been advanced in Mathematics, I've always helped fellow classmates and members of sports teams with their skills in this area as well. This is inclusive to my older brother, who currently is enrolled in a Statistics and Probability course with which I offer my assistance. I feel that my patience, attentiveness, and ability to relate to specific students help me with my style of tutoring.
