Leona G. - Vallejo, CA 94590 (0.9 mi) - Reading Comprehension Tutor - $42.50/hr.
In an effort to conjure mutual respect, I approach each student more like a peer rather than a teacher, although they know who is an charge. With my elementary students, I have been known to kick a soccer ball around with them or read them a book... schedule permitting. "Play time" is my pro bono contribution after a good lesson. University of California-Berkeley graduate in individual major titled "Diplomacies to End the Division of Europe-1949-1990." Tutored English to German students in Germany, and returned to America to "give back". Specializing in one-on-one tutoring with resources and interactive activities found on the internet as well as worksheets on paper.
I am very patient and have a record of success with my past students. They have averaged a 25% increase in test scores after a minimum of 4 lessons to a maximum of 10 lessons.
Looking forward to gaining my teachi

My style is structured yet easy going and patience exercised. Have tutored adults and teenagers with reading; vocabulary, grammar, and writing; work one-on-one with students at their pace in a relaxed setting (library or public place preferred). English is my specialty because my background is in writing and mass communication. I have worked at a daily newspaper as an editorial assistant and I also have written freelance articles about jazz (and music in general) for publications such as Jazziz; Jazz Now; Windplayer; and the Alameda Newspaper Group.

lynn z. - Berkeley, CA 94705 (14.9 mi) - Reading Comprehension Tutor - $40.00/hr.
What is the difference between Reading and Reading Comprehension? If you do not comprehend what you read you are not reading, are you? I believe learning should always be engaging and meaningful. It is critical to address individual student learning modalities and needs so the student can experience great success. I have always been a teacher of best practices, meaning incorporating those strategies and methodologies which are the most effective. They work because they promote high student investment and engagement. I have been a dynamic, successful elementary, middle and high school teacher as well as college instructor of Art, English, French and History for many years. I also taught in a two way language immersion school ( English and Spanish) for six years so I can teach Beginning and Intermediate levels of Spanish. While teaching, I have always taken courses in the best practices of

The beginning of everything, I've got three younger sisters and there has always been a fair amount of helping out where they're concerned. I've babysat since I was twelve and for the past few years I've worked as a nanny. It's not exactly what you would expect for a tutor but I've been offering homework help in those areas for many years.

sienna m. - Concord, CA 94521 (16.9 mi) - Reading Comprehension Tutor - $32.50/hr.
I work very well with children to help them focus and process reading material more quickly to expand their learning. I continously tutor ages k-12, college students and international students. I have been tutoring for five years and enjoy sifting out the difficulties. Many students have trouble absorbing the material and many students read the curriculum abstractly. I help my students with processing the material easier so that we can progress efficiently. I am very proficient with teaching my students to understand rather than just finish the activity or problem. I pay very close attention to the learning style of my students. I make sure they are focusing and learning rather than copying my teachings.
