Evan P. - Madison, WI 53711 (27.3 mi) - Composition Tutor - $16.00/hr.
I believe that a child cannot fully come to comprehend subject matter without having a chance to be immersed in it first. This philosophy lends to the hands-on, question-oriented form of teaching that I so firmly stand by. I realize that different people employ different strategies in coming to learn new material and I will adjust the way I teach as best I can in order to accommodate each and every individual detail. Much the same as the famous social psychologist Lev Vygotsky emphasized the zone of proximal development, I believe that education should not be approached from the standpoint of "teaching to the test" as much as it deserves to be about aiding a child in coming up with creative alternatives in an effort to master the concept in question and develop an intrinsic motivation to actually want to learn. Working with children always has been and always will be a passion of mine. P

Previously to becoming a teacher I worked in industry as a project manager or assistant for different companies, using Spanish occasionally.

Other Teaching Experience: Sunday School, Vacation Bible School, 5 Day Clubs. Specializing in discovering how student best learns. Open Ended Questions, Focus on Strength while pinpointing areas of weakness to correct and strengthen areas of concern. Teach child as a whole person understanding we need trust and confidence to truly reach our potential. STUDENTS HAVE TROUBLE LEARNING WHEN TRUST BREAKS DOWN AND THEY ARE AFRAID TO EXPOSE WEAKNESSES OR ASK QUESTIONS. To me, this is the key to success--trust in a safe and challenging and FUN learning environment wheee mistakes are treated as paramount to learning, not as hindrances.

Ashley C - Mt. Horeb, WI 53572 (11.5 mi) - Composition Tutor - $34.50/hr.
I am dedicated to providing a quality education for all of the students that I teach. Consequently, I understand that all students learn in different ways and I often incorporate the theory of multiple intelligence to meet the diverse needs of my students. I also try to make information relevant to students lives. Helping students make connections between background knowledge and new content is one of the strengths I possess as an educator. In the classroom I am constantly making comparisons scaffoling student learning, reflecting upon my own success, and making changes as necessary. As a graduate from UW- Madison in Elementary Education, I am passionate about teaching, learning, and the pursuit of excellence. I earned a 3.8 GPA from UW-Madison and gained great experience working with students of all ages and abilities. For example, I completed an internship at the Dane County Juvenile D
