Ravi P - Roanoke, VA 24018 (21.8 mi) - Sociology Tutor - $51.00/hr.
Teaching style involves organized and systematic approach to biology. I have been a student of two major universities one of which involved taking medical school classes and will bring the same approach I use myself and translate it to the student as much as possible to ensure that the perfect study plan and strategy is found to achieve the performance that is necessary. I have experiences and used multiple learning techniques myself and will teaching these techniques and study habits to ensure peak performance. I have graduated from two major universities and will attend medical school at Nova Southeastern University in August 2011. I have just recently graduated from USF College of Medicine with a Master’s degree in Medical Sciences and hold a degree in Molecular and Cellular Biology from the University of Illinois.

Shawn W - Bedford, VA 24523 (21.8 mi) - Sociology Tutor - $34.50/hr.
I really enjoy being around kids and helping them learn new things. When you teach a kid something and they finally get it, the sight of their face lighting up is priceless. I believe that one should teach using a variety of methods because all kids do not learn the same way and each individual method shows something new each time. I believe that all kids can learn so much if they work as hard as they can and put forth maximum effort. I think it is very easy to learn/teach using as many hands on examples as possible. I graduated from Liberty University in May 2009 with a BS in Accounting. I am currently and have been a substitute teacher in Bedford County for the 2009-2010 school year. I have substituted for grades 6-12. I have been a football coach at Liberty High School for 3 years and I have been a track & field coach at Liberty High School for 5 years. I have helped different types o

Ashley J - Piedmont, SC 29673 (31.3 mi) - Sociology Tutor - $36.50/hr.
I love to work with students of all ages. I am a patient teacher and try to tailor my teaching style to the progress of my student. I prefer to promote understanding through the use of work sheets, tutorials, and real world examples, rather then simply relying on memorization. I have a good sense of humor and believe that constructive learning environments are both challenging and light-hearted. I studied creative writing at the SC Governor's School for the Arts and Humanities in Greenville SC. There I studied poetry, play writing, grammar, editing, fiction, and creative nonfiction. I won two national scholastic writing awards for my writing. I also studied at Rice University which is a highly selective university in Houston Texas. I majored in sociology and also took many intensive English classes. While a student at Rice, I tutored several of my peers in both sociology and english. I

Avis W - Lynchburg, VA 24502 (31.7 mi) - Sociology Tutor - $53.50/hr.
What works for one student may not work for the other. One-on-one instruction is a great opportunity to find out which learning-teaching style works best for the individual student. I am patient, friendly and flexible. At the same time, I am driven to see tangible progress in my work, so that, ultimately, the student achieves his or her goals.
Being a teacher is not a job for me; rather, it is who I am. Teaching is my service to others. If you looked over my resume, you would see that I have a Bachelor of Arts degree in English, a year of experience as an adjunct instructor at a medical career college and two years teaching English as a Second Language at a private institution. However, if you looked over my life, you would see that I have been teaching, tutoring and mentoring my entire life. I have volunteered as a mentor, a tutor, and a teacher in community organizations, in l

Margaret C - Lynchburg, VA 24501 (33.2 mi) - Sociology Tutor - $36.00/hr.
I have a great deal of experience training fellow employees and have devised the system of show them once, let them do it once while talking them through it, and then let them do it once without assistance. This system also translates to teaching. The last step is the most important; it forces the student to think for him or herself and instills confidence that the problem is not beyond his or her level of understanding. It is very important to teach students how to figure things out for themselves – probably the most important lesson I learned at UVa. If a child knows how to utilize resources such as the textbook, example problems, and the internet, then he or she will be able to work independently through a tough problem. Education has always been extremely important to me. To me there is no greater feeling than finally grasping a difficult concept and I love helping someone else

Laurie D - Radford, VA 24143 (37.8 mi) - Sociology Tutor - $40.00/hr.
I am a Certified Public Accountant with over 30 years of accounting and finance experience. Although I have no formal teaching degree, I feel that I would be an excellent tutor. First, I have successfully trained many employees over the years. Second, my two sons, ages 21 and 19 graduated numbers 2 and 1 in their high school classes, respectively. Now, both are "straight A" students at the University of Tennessee. Here, I feel that I have lead by example. Finally, my personality, while being friendly and patient, is also that of a highly motivated "over achiever" who loves to help others. I feel that I offer the best of both worlds, a love of learning in an academic environment as well as real-life experience in the business world. I love teaching and helping others, especially children. I believe that there are "no stupid questions" and that all children can learn. I think that one of m
