Dan W. - Mililani, HI 96789 (4.1 mi) - Poetry Tutor - $42.50/hr.
I've taught creative writing to Japanese university students in English only (songs, stories and poetry) for two years, and ESL to all ages in Japanese society for 22 years. In America, I taught freshman public speaking, composition, and literature at the university level. My students have gone on to top-level universities, and placed first in prefectural level speech competitions. I teach how to learn, and encourage a love of learning, as well as teaching the subject. I base all my lessons on the value they allow the student to impart to society, both economically and ethically. I encourage students to welcome responsibility and empower themselves as learners.

Mikuni M. - Kapolei, HI 96707 (6 mi) - Poetry Tutor - $27.50/hr.
Learning needs to be enjoyable. When students enjoy what they are learning, that means that they are engaged in what they are learning. When students are engaged, they can better grasp the concepts being taught. I make sure to get to know my student's interests so that I can relate what they are learning to situations that happen in their own lives. I have an Associates in Arts and Teaching degree from Leeward Community College on O'ahu. While completing my associates degree, I was a leader for an after school program for the Leeward YMCA where I worked with students in grades K-5. Lastly, I was a paraprofessional tutor for Iroquois Point Elementary School where I shadowed an autistic child from his general education classroom to his SPED classroom.

Michael G. - Honolulu, HI 96848 (15.2 mi) - Poetry Tutor - $45.00/hr.
Flexible - it depends on the student's needs and preference. One size fits all teaching is poor teaching. My tutoring experience has mainly focused on SAT / ACT prep and ESL (TOEFL). I have also been a high school / middle school teacher in social studies / history / humanities for the past 4 years. I'm now working on my Masters at UH-Manoa.
My own SAT score is a perfect 2400 (800 for Critical / 800 Math / 800 Writing , which I am happy to show you proof of), but even more important is the fact that I know how to teach the material to students at ALL levels (those trying to break 1500 to those trying to break 2200 for the SAT). I've tutored SAT for a very large international test prep company as well as on my own and I have students who have had remarkable success in improving their scores.

Published poet. Poetry.com finalist. Dr. Spock, Read, Recite, Repeat
Those who do not learn from history, repeat it. (not sure who said this) I have two masters degrees. I have taught music. My employment involves being the IT manager for an automobile dealership. I have dealt with just about every type of PC Problem, hardware, software, e-mail, website security, etc. I also do the bookkeeping for the enterprise. I have my own income tax service. Also, I fix PCs. As far as the creative side, I attend a writers group in which we do creative writing. I have been to over 10 colleges and pretty much understand pedagogy. Pedagogy is how they teach and how you learn. The more advanced the courses you take the less they help or guide you. You're on your own. They hand you a syllabus, and say go figure it out. Sometimes, you figure it out, and sometimes, you don't. But either way you lear

Mark H. - Honolulu, HI 96814 (16.1 mi) - Poetry Tutor - $57.50/hr.
My style is informal. Often the humanities are perceived as "stuffy" so I've found that if students feel comfortable, they are better able to grasp the material. 2 years experience designing and teaching various writing and literature courses. Specifically, I have taught 5 different sections of English 101 (Rhetoric and Composition) at a small college in Maryland. The course was structured so that each student received ample individualized instruction from me outside of class. I have taught Intermediate Expository Writing at the same school, a course that I built in such a way so that students read pieces by relevant writers that demonstrate different modes of writing (Definition, Process Analysis, Cause and Effect, etc.) and then practice writing in these various modes. At the University of Georgia I was enrolled in the PhD. program for Comparative Literature. There, I taught foun

Celeste W. - Honolulu, HI 96826 (17 mi) - Poetry Tutor - $35.00/hr.
I like to make my tutoring sessions productive by encouraging students to work hard to complete the taste in order to receive a reward in the form of a game or something they enjoy doing. I am very thorough in correcting assignments and make sure they fully understand the concept they are working on. I am very helpful in stimulating critical thinking for creative writing assignments. I have experience with pre k to 8th grade tutoring in Math and English tutoring to help students prepare for Iolani and Punahou entrance exams through Dr. Takahashi Juku. I have also worked extensively with children from Japan who struggle with English. I can explain English words and grammar in Japanese and well as read and write Japanese .

Lane W. - Honolulu, HI 96825 (22.5 mi) - Poetry Tutor - $37.50/hr.
I began playing piano at the age of 5. At 13 I started teaching piano in Hawaii Kai at the request of neighbors and the business has continued all these years. One of my former students is a police office now, one is a prosecuting attorney, one sailed on the Hokulea. I have great pride in feeling that my small role as a teacher helped steer them towards a successful career. We all know that music instruction helps students do better at school. Some of the most sought after surgeons in Hawaii are classically trained concert pianists.
Students don't need to invest in a piano, a keyboard from Costco does just fine. I use a basic piano method (or books you may have on hand from previous lessons) and supplement the lesson with music of your choosing: show tunes, tv themes, you name it. My students enjoy their lessons. I've taught from age 4 up to 80! As long as the desire to learn to

With this program, I have been able to achieve significant gains with my students, and have all-the-more fueled my passion for assuring an excellent education for every child in my tutelage.
As an caring educator, I believe in providing meaningful and relevant experiences. This means understanding what my students bring to the classroom, and how I can use their background knowledge and experiences to develop curricula that is personally and academically impacting. To this extent, my students have exhibited a high sense of personal responsibility in their learning. I understand my students are developing, meaning that in order to understand how to teach them, I need to have an understanding of who they are, where the

I am fortunate enough to have had an excellent education and understand the importance of learning. I believe everyone should have a similar experience, yet understand that there are those who are not as lucky, and thus I am eager to teach, guide, and push others towards educational success. I understand different people learn in different ways and have developed strategies to accommodate. I am a responsible and organized individual. Given the opportunity to join your team of tutors, I promise patience, enthusiasm, hard work and encouragement to help create a positive and rewarding learning environment for others. I am a graduate from the University of Denver with a degree in Biology and French, as well as a minor in Chemistry. My undergraduate education comprised of upper level courses in Biology, Chemistry, French as well as Math and Physics. I recently left Denver, CO where I was

John B - Honolulu, HI 96826 (16.6 mi) - Poetry Tutor - $45.00/hr.
I believe that each child learns most effectively in a different way, which much be found to further consider a teaching style. Basically I love working with interested questioning minds. I try to inspire students to be self learners -becoming first inquisitive, and then solvers of their own inquiries. Massive amounts of work are required and it is best if the student of science is interested and inquisitive if all the material is to be grasped. I have tutored privately various students at the college level for short terms in elementary physics(<200 level), chemistry(<400 level), mathematics(<500 level), and biology(<300 level). I have also tutored part time in English and SAT preperation for nearly a year (<12 hours a week) with certified tutoring services, a small company here in Honolulu. I have earned a B.S. in mathematics from a university with extensive coursework in the hard scie
