Marie Z - Beaumont, TX 77708 (12.2 mi) - Elementary School Geography Tutor - $37.50/hr.
My passion for education blossomed while volunteering as a tutor with Somali refugee children in Pittsburgh, PA during college. I worked with families in their homes to develop English reading, writing, and speaking skills. After graduating with a B.A. in History and Political Science I joined Teach For America, where I taught first grade for two years and substitute taught pre-kindergarten through fifth grade for one year. A major focus while teaching first grade was developing literacy skills and instilling a love and enthusiasm for reading and writing in my students. The most important thing about my teaching style is that I believe every child can achieve academic excellence and can be interested in learning. I believe that it is up to me, as a teacher or a tutor, to engage the student(s). A huge part of this is being very transparent about where the student starts, what our goals ar

I believe in texts/paper assignements but always try to back up the assignment with some type of real-world experience/scenario,; whether it be having the student give a speech, act out a sc

Yolanda W - Port Arthur, TX 77640 (29.7 mi) - Elementary School Geography Tutor - $39.50/hr.
My life has been filled with teaching and working with children. At the age of ninteen as a very young mother I felt a sense of duty in teaching my children how to achive higher than they can ever have imagined. I love to see the look of awe on their faces when they realize that they to can understand which ever subject that slips them. The rest is simple practice, practice, practice seals the deal. Then stride to the next hurdle. Each child has a different way of learning things. I find many times that a child can have to much or to little of something in their lives which interrupts their natural thought pattern. I believe if a child achieve good balance threw self disipiline that child will hold the key for successful learning. As an Graduate of Applied Science of Industrial Instrumentation. I was extremely driven to accomplish a long sought after goal of completing college while shif

Stuart A - Orange, CT 06477 (32.4 mi) - Elementary School Geography Tutor - $36.00/hr.
Teaching has always been my career dream. I feel personally fulfilled in making a positive difference in a persons life. I truly believe that every student has the potential to increase their chances of having a positive and successful career through education. I try to motivate and find what is the best way to release their untapped potential. This takes patience, foresight and an unquenching willingness to go the proverbial "extra mile." I utilize my excellent communication skills and logical approaches to develop and implement learning methods that help the student "learn how to learn," and ultimately enjoy it. Three years ago, I changed my career from being a Human Resources professional to pursue my lifelong dream of teaching school and coaching. When I was a HR professional, my niche was developing and conducting career and professional skill workshops. Over the last three ye

Richard J - Crosby, TX 77532 (34.3 mi) - Elementary School Geography Tutor - $50.50/hr.
Creative, innovative, and interesting lessons are my forte. I am experienced in providing a constructivist-based approach to knowledge acquisition. Hands-on lesson promote student involvement and increase the development of student responsibility towards their education. I have found that a cross-curriculum approach to the material being presented fosters true understanding and relevance. I am a student of history and believe that knowledge acquisition comes from interest and enthusiasm on the part of the learner. This interest comes from having an instructor who them selves is a learner. A partnership in the tasks being presented usually results in the student wanting to understand the information and making connections. To promote critical thinking I present the material in a global manner, allowing the learner to relate the information/skill to the real-world.

Teaching has always been a passion of mine. Whether in the eyes of children or adults, the light of new knowledge enkindles success.

I perceive it is my responsibility to create an environment and the opportunity to foster success in that search. I am gregarious and enthusiastic. I exhibit a contagiously high level of energy in the classroom. Whether working one or one or in a group, I demonstrate a high level of competence when addressing the needs of the student(s) and the means to enable them to achieve success.

Bridgette C - Kingwood, TX 77339 (38.8 mi) - Elementary School Geography Tutor - $40.50/hr.
I hold a M.A. in medical anthropology as well as a B.A. in cultural anthropology. Throughout graduate school I worked as a teaching assistant and upon graduation I taught biological and cultural anthropology courses for the University of Memphis's department of anthropology. The focus area of my graduate studies was child health; this resulted in working on numerous projects with elementary and middle school aged students. In the past I have volunteered with adult literacy programs and I feel equally comfortable teaching teens as well as children. I love working with children; I began early on as a summer camp counselor for the Girl Scouts of America organization. Additionally I baby-sat throughout my undergraduate years and as mentioned child health became my focus during graduate school. I believe that learning is best achieved through tactile experiences that help the individual direc

Lisa C - Porter, TX 77365 (39.2 mi) - Elementary School Geography Tutor - $39.50/hr.
For the past 7 years I have been teaching in a private school setting. Although classroom sizes are small, I am required to teach multiple subjects. This year, I taught 3-7 grade Latin, 5th and 7th grade social studies, 5th grade grammar and writing, and 5th grade reading. In the past I have also taugh two half years of 10th grade English. This setting requires flexibility and quick adaptability.
My training as a social worker has also facilitated teaching children with dyslexia and behavioral issues. I am currently tutoring a student with dyxlexia in Latin. This experience has cultivated a sence of passion for one-on-one tutoring.
I am very passionate about teaching and love children of all ages. I believe all children have a story which is vital to learning before good teaching can occur. I have discovered that different children require different approaches to learning, an

Then, for three years I taught English in South Korea to children raging from five to 19 years of age which helped me to tone my teaching styles.

Alicia H - Houston, TX 77078 (43.8 mi) - Elementary School Geography Tutor - $43.50/hr.
I have coursework in special education and human development and family studies that has prepared me to work with children and families. My volunteer and paid experience as a substitute and child care teacher has allowed me to apply this knowledge directly to working with this group. In addition, I have mentored high school youth in the areas of scholarship and community service. As a freelance grant writer and nonprofit management professional, my reading and writing skills would be invaluable to young children. I like working with children hands on and gaining a better understanding of what works best for them. Whether it be with visuals, paper, using words; I am up to meet the needs of the child to fulfill their highest potential. Also, I like learning from the child's response to see what works best and what doesn't as a best practices.

Donna S - Friendswood, TX 77546 (51.8 mi) - Elementary School Geography Tutor - $41.00/hr.
I have a BS in Biological Sciences and an MS in Biology. I have also worked in the science research environment for many years, including providing input for protocol, published papers, etc. I have a high aptitude for editing, writing, and proofreading. My grammatical skills are excellent and enjoy sharing this gift with others as I assist them. I enjoy helping people to learn. Aside from knowledge base expertise, certain qualities exemplify a good tutor: patience and being a good listener. Understanding a student’s learning strategies is foundational and incorporates good listening qualities. A desirable outcome will then be more achievable for the student. I try to let my student, regardless of age/grade, not feel intimidated or unintelligent regarding a certain subject or problem. This subsequently allows him or her to open up and feel comfortable as we work together to solve the prob
