Angie B. - Topeka, KS 66614 (6.4 mi) - Reading Comprehension Tutor - $25.00/hr.
I have been tutoring all subjects K-8 for over 15 years. I am a certified teacher and currently teach 6th grade. I worked at Sylvan Learning Center for over a year before becoming a private tutor. I have been very pleased with the results I have seen with private tutoring. References are available on request. I think lots of modeling and review of the concepts being taught is essential. I want the student to observe the modeling and then for me to guide them through the learning of the concepts. Students should be fully engaged in order to gain a full understanding.

I am particularly adept at teaching children and young people how to read; by using a variety of non-conventional and creative methods, including traditional learning techniques. I excel in helping challenged readers to relax and appreciate the power of the written word. I use visuals and audio, along with film and reading aloud (Slam Poetry for example) in my efforts to find various ways to tailor a class to specific student needs.

Jodie W - Topeka, KS 66603 (1.4 mi) - Reading Comprehension Tutor - $37.00/hr.
I love working with people and seeing them succeed. I tend to meet the person at the level where they are at, then adapt the lessons to their learning style. I am very creative and strive to make learning fun. I believe all people can meet and exceed the potentials that they set for themselves, if given the right tools. Their motivation is a vital key. Students need to see for themselves that they can succeed, whether this is something small or they complete the graduation requirements or degree of their dreams. I have been driven my entire life to assist others. I started working in the health care industry as a CNA, 1979. I then went to college and obtained my social work degrees. I worked in various settings to include nursing homes, mental health centers, prisons, adolescent group homes and currently home health care, 1987 to 2009. I am currently pursing additional nursing e

Isabelle P - Topeka, KS 66614 (2.3 mi) - Reading Comprehension Tutor - $38.00/hr.
I love to share my knowledge. I believe that everyone should have a chance to learn and get educated.
I am patient, easy going but firm. I believe that anyone can improve with the appropriate surrounding and a desire to learn. As a native French speaker who graduated from the University of Kansas with a Master in Urban Planning and a BA in Political Science.
I have tutored students in French and English as a second language. Prior to obtaining my BA, I tutored high school students for a year in Kansas City.
I can relate to students struggling to learn a language as I did when I started learning English, which turned out to be quite challenging for me. I decided to spend a year abroad and learn English as an exchange student

Lindsey H - Topeka, KS 66614 (2.9 mi) - Reading Comprehension Tutor - $39.00/hr.
I have always enjoyed interacting with children of all ages. I currently serve as a paraprofessional (teacher's aide) at an inner - city elementary school. During my three years in this position, it has become extremely apparent that all children....no matter their abilities....are capable of reaching their full potential. It is simply a matter of adapting my teaching style to their learning strengths. I am a patient, easy going individual who tries to improve upon the struggles that I encountered on my own academic journey so the students that I am working with walk away with confidence in school and really, all facets of life. I graduated from Southwestern College in Winfield, Kansas with a degree in Communications (emphasis in Journalism) along with minors in Religion and Youth Ministry. While in college, I was a member of the yearbook staff as well as serving as an editor in var

My experience includes teaching adults in the corporate environment, delivering entrepreneurial training, and college and university level teaching in topics such as Quality, Business management, Oral and Written communications.
I have a passion for working with students in helping to them to achieve knowledge in various subject areas. I belive my degrees (I am a doctoral student who have completed my academic work and currently working on my dissertation) qualify me to teach students in Math, English, Writing (or Journalism). I am a very passionate teacher with the desired goal of helping students to achieve results that exceed expectations. I have a tendency to work well one on one with students so that they have an opportunity to understand the basics in order to develop a strong foundation for advanced understanding. I love the opportunity to work with children and adult of all

David H - Lawrence, KS 66044 (21.1 mi) - Reading Comprehension Tutor - $39.00/hr.
I have always enjoyed working with children. I believe that having as many positive role-models as possible can really help to shape a student's outlook on not only their education, but how they will tackle problems and opportunities in their lives for a long time. If a student learns that it takes hard work and discipline to achieve good grades and a great education from the beginning, it can help him or her to really do great things later on in life. With that being said, I genuinely care for kids as well. I consider myself a nurturing and yet challenging coach, mentor and tutor because I understand that often times students that are in need of academic help are often also in need of people that genuinely care about their well-being. Through my English and Creative Writing degree at the University of Missouri, I have earned a lot of experience in the field of English. My reading c

Anna R - Lawrence, KS 66047 (21.3 mi) - Reading Comprehension Tutor - $37.00/hr.
Learning and helping others learn are among my highest priorities in life. My high academic honors reflect this drive to learn: I earned magna cum laude in college, and I was valedictorian of my high school class. My degree in English Education gave me a strong grasp of English grammar, composition, and literature; it also gave me concentrated training and practice in teaching these subjects to adolescents. As a volunteer, I have taught Sunday school to fifth- and sixth- grade students. I am also a classically-trained pianist and served as church pianist for many years. Because each individual student is important to me, I seek to get to know each student personally while retaining a professional demeanor. This helps me understand the student's particular needs so that I may teach the student most effectively. My naturally gentle personality makes me a patient and encouraging teacher. I
