Jessica G. - Tucson, AZ 85712 (33.8 mi) - Government Tutor - $27.50/hr.
Caring and Loving. Visual, providing examples in a real-world context. Teaching in a style that the student understands best! I graduated at second to the top of my High School Class. I have a 4.0 GPA with ASU. I believe in being strict about studying. I believe in taking education seriously. Why have to back track? Many people could easily get good grades without applying studying or being in class. I always worked very hard to organize studying techniques and times so I understand the challenges that students face a lot of times.

Pamela M - Tucson, AZ 85750 (31.2 mi) - Government Tutor - $38.00/hr.
As a trainer and coach, I work with diverse groups (age, background, education, etc.) and utilize varied styles to meet the needs of the participants. Adult learners need to connect past knowledge with new discoveries and have a sense that what they are learning will benefit them in some way, children need to experience, touch and incorporate their senses into their learning.
All in all, I alter my teaching to meet the needs of my students. With over 35 years of work experience, 20 years of volunteering to children and their parents, a BA in education and a MA in management, my experiences are diverse and have allowed me to utilize and grow my skills and gifts. I believe in life-long learning and empowering others to accomplish their goals.
I have a sense or ingrained need to be dedicated to something outside of myself. Helping others, especially as it relates to either children

Megan C - Tucson, AZ 85715 (33.5 mi) - Government Tutor - $36.50/hr.
Over the course of my twenty-three years I have received an international education by way of inter-continental travel and attendance to a world-class university. I have spent much time in the volunteer and non-profit sectors, both donating my time to various kinds of community aid as well as researching aspects of those communities. Because of the broad spectrum of my educational experience, I have spent much time in various areas of study including: natural & Chinese medicine, anatomy, anthropology, sociology, psychology, dance, writing, photography and studio art. I have tutored students in English, writing, mathematics, sciences, dance and photography. Having taught college English in rural China, I have found that I am extremely adaptable in my teaching style. I have the ability to precisely coordinate my teaching techniques with the background and needs of the student in order to c

Joshua B - Tucson, AZ 85716 (33.6 mi) - Government Tutor - $35.50/hr.
As an avid student, and one who continues to pursue greater education, I have found that those who do not continue his or her education will most likely not succeed in the business world. Since graduating with my BA in 2005, I have received 3 promotions and 3 pay increases totaling over 150%! I was a Full Charge Bookkeeper less than 3 years ago, and have served titles as Junior Portfolio Accountant, Lead Portfolio Accountant, Senior Portfolio Accountant, and finally Controller since graduating in December 2005. I have not only helped tutor fellow classmates during my education tenure, but I myself am currently a student striving for my Master's in Business Administration and Accounting. My teaching style first begins with getting to know and understand where the student stands in the specified subject, his or her needs of the subject, and then determining his or her strengths and weaknes

Nathan F - Tucson, AZ 85705 (34.1 mi) - Government Tutor - $35.50/hr.
I have had an opportunity to teach every grade level from Pre-K through college seminars. I take pride in helping students understand difficult material. Because of my broad experience and my easy-going personality, I am able to communicate with students of all ages and backgrounds and find ways to help them learn. Education is the cornerstone of life, and I strive to find ways to help students succeed. During the last several years, I have worked in the education field in a variety of ways. I have served as a full time teacher and a substitute teacher. Also, I have helped develop a violence awareness curriculum and implemented it in several schools. In 2001 I earned my BA in Sociology from the University of Notre Dame. Since that time I have worked in the education field and in the social work field.

Katherine R - Tucson, AZ 85719 (34.2 mi) - Government Tutor - $38.50/hr.
My passion is learning and my hope is to inspire in my students a genuine love of learning and to help them gain the skills necessary to become lifelong, independent learners. I believe all children can learn in an atmosphere that is encouraging, supportive and structured in such a way as to challenge without discouraging. I believe in authentic learning and in teaching through discovery. I have acquired many different techniques and tools over the years and have learned that there is no one style of teaching that fits all. One reason I enjoy tutoring is that I can take the time to truly know the student and to help them discover which tools work best for them. I strive to make a difference in each of my student's lives. I have been actively involved in the field of education for 26 years as a high school English teacher, an elementary reading teacher, and as a school librarian. My te

Douglas N - Tucson, AZ 85711 (35.1 mi) - Government Tutor - $32.00/hr.
An understanding of the student and his/her background, strengths and weaknesses, and motivation is key to successful learning. This student-centered approach has gained favor in recent years, and using this approach in an interactive way allows the student to develop critical-thinking skills at an optimal pace. As a graduate student at the University of Chicago, I was responsible for leading introductory core Biology labs, which covered an array of concepts in biology, statistics, computer usage, and experimental design. Because lab reports were frequent requirements, I also was able to improve skills as a writing tutor I had already developed as a writing tutor (paid student position) in the Writing Lab at Towson University. I also have taught a remedial study- and life-skills course for students on Academic Probation at the University of Arizona. Finally, in my capacity as Academic Ad

Mary H - Tucson, AZ 85748 (35.2 mi) - Government Tutor - $35.00/hr.
I have a BA in Psychology, MS in Zoology and BS in Computer Science. I have lifetime Arizona Community College certification in psychology, biology, ecology and remedial math. My experience with special populations includes: three years full-time on the Navajo Reservation; three years part-time at the SALT Center at the University of Arizona working with learning disabled students; and a hands-on nature camp for deaf middle-schoolers. My favorite experience has been the opportunity to design the curriculum, code the programs, and teach the student counselors for the U of A's Computer Science week-long summer enrichment program for teens. My forte is science and math, which are often students' least favorite subjects, due to earlier difficulty. A solid basic understanding of these subjects is critical to being an independent, engaged adult; and it's just plain cool to understand how th

Jimmy W - Tucson, AZ 85705 (35.3 mi) - Government Tutor - $36.00/hr.
I attended college at three different schools, on athletic scholarship in two of them. I earned two bachelor degrees, BA in Philosophy and BA in Political Science. After graduating I spent one semester teaching sciences at an outdoor based alternative middle and elementary school just outside of Austin, TX. In college and afterwards I have continued to be involved in issues regarding immigration and minorities. I spent one year living and working in the Central Andes in Peru. Part of that job was teaching English to adults and children in their communities. This has given me a high level of fluency in Spanish and an ability to work in crosscultural situations. I do not believe in hierarchy. I think the teacher-student or tutor-student relationship should be one of equal footing and mutual discovery. This means asking questions together and seeking out the fundamental answers to qu

Keith C - Tucson, AZ 85719 (35.8 mi) - Government Tutor - $37.00/hr.
I have always felt very comfortable working with children. I previously worked as an after school teacher at a private middle school and ended up having a great relationship with all the kids. I am easy going and patient and feel myself to be someone that can bring the most out of people. I am a recent graduate of the University of Arizona with a BA in English and a minor in History. I am passionate about writing and creativity in general. Many years of taking upper level English classes have given me much confidence in my paper writing and editing ability. In addition to all of this, I love to write creatively (especially poetry) in my free time.
