lynn z. - Berkeley, CA 94705 (8.3 mi) - Teacher Cert Exams Tutor - $40.00/hr.
I have tutored teachers from several states so that they might be prepared to pass their state teacher certification exam. I teach students how to "beat" the test. I have been a dynamic, successful elementary, middle and high school teacher as well as college instructor of Art, English, French and History for many years. I also taught in a two way language immersion school ( English and Spanish) for six years so I can teach Beginning and Intermediate levels of Spanish. While teaching, I have always taken courses in the best practices of teaching as well as courses in subject matter content. I have tutored people of all ages, learning styles and needs in a range of subject matter, including testing; I ascertain how each student learns best to develop the most fitting, effective teaching strategies for them. I am considered a Master teacher as I train other teachers about best practices an

Marlon R - Fairfield, CA 94533 (17.9 mi) - Teacher Cert Exams Tutor - $50.00/hr.
I have been a substitute teacher for about 10 years specializing in math & physics. I have a BS in Mechanical Engineering plus 20+ years of maintenance/engineering experience. I incorporate practical examples in teaching to give students in depth knowledge in a practical sense. I gather my examples from my varied career experiences from the Military, Aircraft, Engineering, Manufacturing/Maintenance & Computer fields. I sporadically tutors students in my specialty. I use the Active Participation strategy because it engages the learner not only in understanding but in contributing as well. This active learning process combined with introduction of practical uses/examples of the the subject matter provides a deeper meaning. But most of all the Objective,Purpose,and what their interests are, must be known so that these can be incorporated in the learning process.

Shannon E - Palo Alto, CA 94306 (35.1 mi) - Teacher Cert Exams Tutor - $44.00/hr.
I believe that every student has a unique learning style and that it is my job as a teacher or tutor to discover which instructional methods work best for each particular student. I have a naturally patient and supportive demeanor and work hard to build rapport with students so that they will feel comfortable engaging in the risk-taking that is necessary for learning to take place. I emphasize the teaching of reading and writing strategies that students can take with them and use in future assignments, which helps to increase students' feelings of confidence as readers and writers. After graduating cum laude from the University of Oregon with a B.A. in English, I earned an M.A. in the Teaching of English from Stanford University along with a Single Subject Credential in English/Language Arts. I have taught English at the middle and high school level at high-achieving public schools in va

Marjorie S - Santa Rosa, CA 95403 (36.7 mi) - Teacher Cert Exams Tutor - $46.50/hr.
As an Adult Education teacher I taught learners from High School age through 70 year-olds. I taught office occupations; ESL; and GED, ABS, HS diploma and citizenship. I developed knowledge and skills in many content areas and in the management of students. I have taught post-graduate classes in computer applications for different content areas, reading and writing for elementary students, discipline, character education, and working with ELLs. I am patient, have a good sense of humor, and strive to help students achieve to their ability. I have great faith in children's ability to develop proficiency in any content as long as they have adequate support. One size does not fit all in education and I use differentiation and different teaching modalities, with a lot of realia and manipulatives, to meet the students' learning styles and preferences, and the content area. I rely on colle

Alexandra K - San Jose, CA 95131 (41.7 mi) - Teacher Cert Exams Tutor - $44.50/hr.
I have worked for over five years with elementary and middle school-aged students; I have also worked with People with Disabilities. I love working with children, especially the Middle School-aged set, because I love being able to talk with them about current events, and its fun to broaden their horizons beyond their iPods [the gossip and daily drama is hilarious at times too]. I earned my Bachelor's in Biological Sciences and am now in the process of going back to school to earn my teaching credential. I am a parent to a four year old and a twenty year old stepson, so my teaching and parenting is one filled with patience, toughness but fairness, and lots of humor. I believe that children should talk respectfully, grammatically correct [Student: “Can I go to the bathroom?” Myself: “Well, I don’t know. Do you know how to?’ Student: “I mean, may I go to the bathroom?” Myself: “Yes, of cour

Sharon V - Davis, CA 95618 (43.9 mi) - Teacher Cert Exams Tutor - $45.50/hr.
I love learning, and try to impart its joy to all I encounter. Much of that joy is realized by my students in developing and mastering needed and wanted skills. It is a further delight to me that so many of my students do “turn on” admirably as they realize progress in academic spheres they previously found discouragingly challenging. The variety of approaches I have mastered in presenting materials and individualizing practice makes my service as a learning guide perfect for the previously-frustrated student. I love learning, and I never give up on anyone! Individualizing English grammar, composition, and lit. instruction became a teaching strength during 12 years in secondary schools. Skills for ELLs were honed by nine years at a Japanese university. I tutored adults in my “Have English-Will Travel” company serving personal/business needs of Silicon Valley firms’ foreign nationals. Eff
