Matt S - Incline Village, NV 89450 (20.6 mi) - GRE Tutor - $38.50/hr.
Having worked with students of all ages in a variety of settings, I specialize in teaching science and math concepts as well as test prep and study skills. My mission as a tutor is to help students understand subject content while learning how to learn.
My favorite part of being a teacher is watching confusion and doubt become knowledge and confidence. I believe that this transition of ignorance to understanding is the hallmark of education and my goal is to motivate my students to seek these opportunities. Born and raised in upstate New York, I graduated from Cornell University in the spring of 2000 with a B.S. in Biology. In 2003, after a short stay in the biotechnology world, I moved west to work for an outdoor science school in Southern California. Since then, I have had the pleasure of traveling all over the country and working with a variety of successful environmental educa

Christine H - Cool, CA 95614 (38.8 mi) - GRE Tutor - $42.50/hr.
My teaching style involves fun and an active student. Self-discovery is the best way to learn and retain knowledge. I see myself as the facilitator; I give my students the tools, so they can figure out problems on their own and become more self-reliant. I want learning to be fun, involving games, healthy competition and active learning, so students become life long learners. Having said that, I have high expectations for students' abilities and behavior. I have always been able to build rapport and a mutual respect with students of all ages and backgrounds. That trust makes the learning environment more impactful. I have taught ESL for 17 years to children and adults from all over the world. I have a strong command of language arts and am experienced at teaching literacy, grammar, vocabulary, spelling, essay writing, phonics, pronunciation, etc. I coordinate the after school enri

Catalina J - Reno, NV 89503 (39.2 mi) - GRE Tutor - $39.00/hr.
As an MBA student, I constantly had to conduct research in challenging fields, write reports, train others and make appropriate recommendations. I have particularly enjoyed carrying on tasks that required teaching others, presenting personal research and challenging specific teaching styles.
As a substitute teacher, I have developed my teaching skills and became able to adapt to the different educational level, schools, communities etc.
From my professional experience, I learned to be a team leader, to focus on the delegated task, to prioritize and to reward results. I am a parent and I understand that educating our children is a priority. Although challenging, I particularly enjoy working with children, teaching them as well as learning from them.
I believe that what makes me a good teacher is my ability to listen, understand a child's outlook on things and my constant focus on ch

Jacob C - Sparks, NV 89431 (40.7 mi) - GRE Tutor - $34.50/hr.
I have earned a bachelor’s degree and a master’s degree in mining engineering which have given me a deep understanding in many areas of math, science and engineering. During my undergraduate and graduate education, I worked both as a research assistant and as a teaching assistant.
In my role as a research assistant I was a member, and later a leader, of an interdisciplinary team of researchers. I gained extensive grammatical skills through my experience preparing research papers, laboratory reports and technical presentations.
In addition to my research duties, I acted as a teaching assistant for three years during my education. For this position, I received training in teaching and tutoring styles. I was responsible for providing out-of-class tutoring on engineering topics which heavily involved the application of math and science concepts. I was also occasionally responsible
