Renu M - Sunnyvale, CA 94086 (25.7 mi) - Florida Writes Tutor - $48.50/hr.
My tutoring style is described as follows:
1) I encourage learning by doing
2) I encourage learning by thinking: By interpreting ideas, sythesizing and analysing them and by critical revision of those ideas
3) I encourage students to reflect on their learning
4) I give precise instructions to my students: On what students should do, ways and methods for learning, resources they should use for learning.
5) I pack necessary knowledge and transfer it to students in most efficient ways: I prefer to use visual aids, demonstrate practical examples, write resources (summaries,extracts) for my students.
To sum up, I would do whatever it takes a tutor to help students learn. Tutoring experience: I started tutoring when I was pursuing Bachelors in Science majoring in Math. I taught a variety of students of age group from 5 to 17. I taught Arithematic, Numbers theory, Pre- Algebra,

Michael S - Foster City, CA 94404 (41.4 mi) - Florida Writes Tutor - $47.00/hr.
I take a look at what the existing instruction materials are attempting to convey and I add to that or expound on that. I use Google extensively to look for similar examples to the problems the student might be having. I believe that it is best to solve any given problem in at least two different ways if you really want to get some insight. It also helps in either verifying your answer or checking if you are in the ballpark. I have an undergraduate degree in Aerospace Engineering. I have a Masters in Systems Engineering. I have tutored one person in statistics, algebra, analytical geometry and elementary functions for one year. She has maintained an “A” average during that time.

Kimberly R - Turlock, CA 95382 (43.9 mi) - Florida Writes Tutor - $40.50/hr.
I received my BA from Azusa Pacific University in 1994. In 1995, I worked full-time as a teacher while going to school at night and received my Multiple Subject Credential. I have been teaching in the public schools since 1994. I have taught 7th and 8th grade math, science, US History, and ESL. I have also taught Seriously Emotionally Disturbed children, 1st grade, 6th grade, and Kindergarten. I have a passion for teaching students to read because my own child has dyslexia. I understand the struggle it is for these children to succeed in school, so when i tutor, I use the Susan Barton Reading program, which is a multisensory approach to reading and phonics. I truly enjoy when I get the chance to work one-on-one with a student. I am the kind of teacher you will see sitting on the floor with a student, acting things out in front of the class, making up songs to go with the curriculum, and

John d - Salida, CA 95368 (44 mi) - Florida Writes Tutor - $47.00/hr.
I taught for twenty five years at the middle school level mostly in a self contained sixth grade classroom. In addition to teaching reading, English, math, science,and social studies, I taught electives is video filming and remedial reading.
In my experience as a teacher, I discovered that all students can learn if they are properly motivated. I found that I could best motivate a student if I found what they were interested in, and what grade level they were working at.
I also worked for five years as a substitute teacher. I believe in individualized teaching. In my sixth grade classroom, I individualized instruction wherever possible. In reading I tested my students and placed them in books at their reading level. I had them write reading summaries and corrected their first drafts. In sixth weeks, I retested and in most instances moved students to a higher level. In my math cla
