Angela C - Las Vegas, NV 89141 (31 mi) - Teacher Cert Exams Tutor - $56.00/hr.
I am a current high school teacher who loves her job! I earned my Bachelor's Degree at Iowa State University in Secondary English Education, and then a School Counseling Master's Degree at UNLV. I have a strong passion for learning and love to share that passion with kids. My strengths in education are grammar, spelling, literature, and reading strategies. Also, due to my counseling background, I'm a great listener and like for kids to feel like I'm someone they can rely on and trust. I love working with kids and watching them learn and grow. It amazes me every year to see students who don't believe in themselves grow into kids who see their full potential. The light in their eyes is priceless. My approach to teaching is along the lines of the "Love and Logic" program. I believe that when children are offered choices, they feel more empowered to make decisions that are best for their fut

Cara S - Las Vegas, NV 89103 (37.5 mi) - Teacher Cert Exams Tutor - $38.50/hr.
I am a very energetic and enthusiastic person, so working with kids was always what I wanted to do. I love the relationships that develop and how the relationships affect the student performance. I am a very hands on, real life learner myself so I tend to do that with my students. Overall, I want to make kids excited to take ownership over their learning. When they feel like it is their own, they invest more in to it, making every thing they do more successful. I graduated from an accredited Education College in Holland. Michigan. Hope College was a four year Liberal Arts college that required me to have 5 field experiences throughout my semesters in a variety of areas, as well as a full semester of student teaching. During this experience I worked in Primary, Upper Elementary, Middle School, ESL, and Special Education classrooms. I student taught in a 6th grade Language Arts classroom.

John H - Las Vegas, NV 89101 (40.5 mi) - Teacher Cert Exams Tutor - $40.50/hr.
As the 7th Grade English and reading teacher at Robison Middle School, test scores on the state-mandated proficiency exam improved by 24%. After one year of service, I was asked to be the Chair of the Reading department. As the instructor for Read 180, I developed students' reading abilities who were far below school and district standards. Using a set curriculum based on computer, large group and small group discussion, I balanced classwork and themed topics to assist students in overcoming reading difficulties. I employ a number of different tactics while teaching. My main focus is using open-ended questions which help students understand not only what the correct answer is, but also why the answer is correct. I am focus-driven and work to set objectives. I will focus on an objective until it is understood completely.
I have a strong ability to relate concepts into real-life situat
