Kari F - Berrien Springs, MI 49103 (16.5 mi) - Pre-Algebra Tutor - $42.00/hr.
My teaching style approaches the learner with patience and creativity. As an art and writing student, I realize that many kids learn differently, and I try to approach each situation as a unique situation. As a writing consultant what I loved hearing about was when students became more confident and improved to the point of independence. Because of this my teaching style involves breaking down the writing process into a format that is understandable for the student and using the foundations of their learning. As a student myself, I appreciate and respond best to constructive criticism, and so I have learned to first praise, and then improve. As an undergraduate student, I had the opportunity to work as a tutor in the Writing Center of Andrews University. I assisted both undergraduate and graduate students and community members with various essays and papers, concentrating on grammatical

June N - Benton Harbor, MI 49022 (17.7 mi) - Pre-Algebra Tutor - $39.50/hr.
I draw on a variety of teaching experiences that contribute to my success with students. My most recent position was teaching all subjects to grades K-4 in a self-contained classroom. We had a family atmosphere with an open door policy where parents could visit and talk with me before and after school any day of the week. Because I developed the curriculum, I have a thorough understanding of where a student should be presently, and where he is heading. Problems were solved and goals achieved using guided practice, hand-on materials, music, repetition and memory, experimentation, field trips, and library resources. I am highly organized, yet flexible, as I assess a student’s needs and challenges. I have had a variety of teaching experiences since graduating from a small teacher’s college with strict requirements. I have taught geography, physical education, piano, keyboarding, and

Sue P - South Bend, IN 46614 (22.6 mi) - Pre-Algebra Tutor - $35.00/hr.
I enjoy teaching and find it very rewarding. I believe
that all children can learn and it is the teacher's role to
find the learning style of his or her students and to plan lessons
and activities to meet their needs. Children want to be successful
in school and with my patience and dedication I strive to
help each student find success. I earned my degrees in education from Ball State University.
I hold a Bachelor of Science degree in Elementary Education
with a Kindergarten Endorsement, M.A.E. degree, and a Master
of Arts degree in Special Education with minors in the following:
Learning Disabilities, Mildly Mentally Handicapped, Seriously
Emotionally Handicapped. I have taught at the elementary level
in both general education classes and special education classes
and at the high school level in special education classes.

Jonathan L - Watervliet, MI 49098 (28.6 mi) - Pre-Algebra Tutor - $35.50/hr.
I would describe my teaching style as patient, considerate and thorough. During my years of tutoring, I have learned to individualize my approach to student and subject material depending on the former's individual characteristics. As a graduate of an excellent college (Columbia) with a major in mathematics, I feel that I am well trained for the position of mathematics tutor. I have over five years' experience with tutoring of high school and college students in various branches of mathematics, including algebra, geometry, trigonometry and calculus.

James K - Hartford, MI 49057 (31.6 mi) - Pre-Algebra Tutor - $39.00/hr.
I enjoy teaching and working with young adults. I am a Christian and I believe in patients, consideration, and encouragemet. Since I was a chemistry/science teacher, I believe in hands on learning and of course discovery. I brought real life experiences into my lesson plans because I have years of experience as a chemist. I used PowerPoint presentations to entertain and keep the students engaged. I believe in the use of "prompting" to help students arrive at the correct answers and take ownership of the results.
My life was changed by a high school teacher who took me under his guidance. He has knowledge, wisdom, and passion for education and Christian values. I will bring, share, demonstrate, and teach these same qualities to you! I taught H.S. chemistry I & II in the Indianapolis area from 2001-2005. Entering college at Western Michigan U, I had plans on becoming a teacher, bu

Barry B - Bremen, IN 46506 (32.1 mi) - Pre-Algebra Tutor - $34.00/hr.
At Purdue University I took all Engineering degree mathematics courses. In addition, I took five statistical cources, three of them were graduate level.
At AlliedSignal, I received a week's training to teach three day courses in Total Quality Leadership to employees. Over the course of one year, I conducted twenty four courses with a partner facilitator.
One company I worked for was a supplier to Caterpillar. In the course of mutual problem solving, I was able to be certified as a Green Belt. My teaching style is to provide several ways to solve a problem. Since learning is done in different ways, one of the solution methods will turn on a light bulb and the student will "get it". I bring additional materials and new ways to remember. Last fall I tutored a fifth grader in mathematics. I provided note cards for him in the various solution formulas.

Beenne C - Goshen, IN 46526 (36.5 mi) - Pre-Algebra Tutor - $47.50/hr.
I am currently a Senior at Bethel College. I will recieve a bachelor's in Psychology at May 1, 2011. I have been tutoring since the summer of 2010.

I feel as though they tend to have a higher capacity for sustaining attention. Those are unique ages that can really build a foundation for later education. I believe that one-on-one time is essential in learning. Some people might learn well in a large group, but others learn muc

Arletta G - Paw Paw, MI 49079 (42.1 mi) - Pre-Algebra Tutor - $35.50/hr.
I believe that the relationship between teacher and student is the foundation upon which learning experiences are built. Consistency and trust are the cornerstones of this relationship, which allow the learner to be open-minded, to explore, to ask questions, to solve problems, and to build self-confidence. A positive bond is the key to overcoming risk-factors and helping a child to realize his or her potential. Having worked in banking, telecommunications, data processing, and education, I have extensive experience in each of these fields and a unique combination of knowledge and skills. I have applied excellent grammatical skills and the ability to quickly learn processes and procedures to developing user guides and other technical documentation, and to developing and delivering on-site and classroom training. Since attaining a B.A. in Elementary Education, I have continually pursued
