Elizabeth S - Eastham, MA 02642 (17.6 mi) - Writing Skills Tutor - $45.00/hr.
Teaching comes naturally to me in that I love to work with people (i.e. my professional career) and I love to encourage and inspire others to advance their lives through education. I create a comfortable atmosphere for students so that their stress level is reduced and they are able to focus on learning. At the same time, I make lessons fun yet serious. Learning requires having an interest, having a goal and paying attention.
With individual tutoring, I use the opportunity to individualize lessons so students are motivated to achieve. Having earned my college degrees as an adult, I am particularly interested in assisting adults in achieving their educational goals.
I taught GED Preparation courses for seven years at the local Adult Education Program and assisted approximately 30 students in obtaining their GED. English and math were the main subject matter for these tests and st

Susan V - S. Yarmouth, MA 02664 (22.2 mi) - Writing Skills Tutor - $46.50/hr.
I have a relaxed teaching style that makes my students feel comfortable and interested in learning. I believe I transfer my passion for my subject to my students. I am able to draw on my extensive work and “real-world” experience, which students seem to appreciate. I have an informal manner, yet I expect much of my students. I expect them to do the work required and to have good attendance at the teaching sessions. I teach best through “hands-on” methods, allowing students to learn by doing. I have worked most of my adult life in education or journalism, and I was able to combine my two passions as a journalism professor at the college level for several years. I am currently a visiting lecturer in media studies at Bridgewater State College and a substitute teacher in local schools. I have taught social studies, business and typing in secondary schools. I also have taught in other venues

Edward K - Kingston, MA 02364 (23.5 mi) - Writing Skills Tutor - $43.00/hr.
I can offer a student a broad educational perspective with a Ph.D. in the medical sciences and 18 years experience in the Biotech industry. My teaching experience began on the faculty at the UMass Medical School (1993-1999), where I tutored high school, undergraduates and graduate students in problem solving, creative thinking, and scientific writing for publications and textbooks, presentations and grant applications. As a management consultant and entrepreneur I help people stay organized and multi-task effectively – both practical skills for students. Lastly, as a father of 3 in highly competitive private schools, and as a seasoned AAU coach (U12-17), I take great pride in helping students achieve their life’s goals. My teaching philosophy and primary goal is to first understand and appreciate each child for their unique abilities, strengths and weaknesses, then to channel those ab

Joseph D - Pocasset, MA 02559 (29.1 mi) - Writing Skills Tutor - $48.00/hr.
I have a Bachelor of Art in History, predominantly American. I also pursued Engineering for my first year and plan to go back to College. I have completed through Calculus II and am also experienced in hands-on mechanical. I have limited tutoring experience, but I know I can listen and respond. Any experience came from helping others in classes during College. I'm patient and listen to the student to see what they get and don't get about the premise of the lesson. Then we get to it. Careful reinforcement of the Correct method will ensure Remembrance and Results. Also, Lessons must be approached within the context of the Big Picture. Students need to realize that there are no pointless or forgettable sections. Basically, communication is key followed by practice, reinforcement, more practice. Learning can be at pace, but laziness and whining will not be tolerated.

Michael C - Quincy, MA 02169 (40.4 mi) - Writing Skills Tutor - $48.00/hr.
I am currently studying to become a High School Biology Teacher and will be taking the Mass. Test for Education License in May 2011.
In 2009 I joined AmeriCorps and worked for the Mountain Studies Institute in Durango Colorado. While I was there, I held educational workshops, presentations and forums.
While in school I helped my classmates in two separate ways. One as a part-time peer tutor, the second as the co-president of the Reef Check Volunteer Club. As such I again got to train members to look for specific indicator species of biological importance.
I also worked at a museum of natural science in Granville NY. While here I lead nature hikes and designed activities for elementary school classes and day camps. I've have always enjoyed working with children of all ages, and find that each child is unique. Each one learns in their own way, and one of my greatest strengths is being a

Diana S - Gloucester, MA 01930 (40.8 mi) - Writing Skills Tutor - $50.50/hr.
I am always open to learning new styles, and often take part in researching new practices. Most of my teaching, however, is based on the direct teaching model. I like to start each class with an anticipatory set, challenging students to use their critical thinking skills. Then the skill set or information set is modeled by me, practiced with guidance by the students, and finally, the students are given an independent practice exercise. Each lesson is built upon the successful incorporation of the prior skill set taught. During the last ten years, I have taught students in the areas of study skills, test preparation, US history, language arts and ESL/ELL students learning English. I have written curriculum and supervised special education teachers working with dyslexic students.
I earned my first master's degree in education, and am part way through my post-master's degree in special

Robin H - Gloucester, MA 01930 (43.2 mi) - Writing Skills Tutor - $44.50/hr.
I have a lot to offer, having lived many lives in one lifetime. I am a quintessential American-born woman with good Russian language skills. I am hands on, and patient. My computer skills are very good. Successful myself, I know how to nurture that aspect in others. Understanding that all of us learn best in one way or another, I am adaptable. I can teach by modeling or discovery; importantly I find using the context of a larger world very useful in coaxing the desire to learn anything, and learn it well, invaluable. I have owned a publishing company for several years and my English language skills, writing and editing, are top-notch, functioning as publisher and editor-in-chief. My experience in business further defines me as a woman with both academic knowledge and practical market expertise.

Natalia R - Essex, MA 01929 (44.8 mi) - Writing Skills Tutor - $52.50/hr.
When I was 10 years old, I started helping my grandmother—who is originally from Peru—with her English. As I knew and understood her native language very well, I relied on my ability to translate in order to help her. As this process worked quite well, I have continued to use it with all of my tutoring positions. Although I am not always working with a native Spanish speaker, I try to tailor my teaching style towards the individual learner; I firmly believe that all students learn differently, and that no one way is better than another. As a tutor I strive to be an attentive listener; respectful and never condescending; and actively engage with students. As a senior at Bowdoin college, I have developed strong writing skills in both the sciences and the humanities; I am double major in both Anthropology and Gender and Women's Studies, with a minor in chemistry.

I have degrees from Boston College (B.A., Economics) and Salem State College (M.Ed., School Counseling). I was a high school guidance counselor for three years before starting a business as an educational consultant for families involved in the college admissions process. I have tutored the SAT, PSAT, and SSAT since 2002, working for several companies and later on my own. A former newspaper and public relations professional, I am a strong writer. I am laid-back and easy going with a good sense of humor. I relate very well to children - having tutored and coached youth sports for a long time. I consider myself patient, and reward students for trying. It is satisfying to see pupils make progress.
