Rachael W. - Maryville, TN 37803 (11.3 mi) - Literature Tutor - $23.00/hr.
From a family of teachers, getting concepts through to others, ones that I fully understand, is a practice that of which I find myself to be both very positive and successful. I completed the pre-pharmacy undergraduate program at Maryville College, which means I have a strong base in science. Throughout my career, I have often trained colleagues in Microsoft Excel, programming simple solutions in Excel to automate processes, as well as in writing composition. I have professional experience across a broad spectrum of business.

Janean J. - Lenoir City, TN 37772 (16.7 mi) - Literature Tutor - $36.50/hr.
I have 10 years experience teaching ESL in various settings. Primarily my experience has been in K-12 public schools. However, I have experience in teaching adults and in tutoring adults, as well. My students have varied to professionals seeking to improve English to newly arrived immigrants needing to learn an entire new language. I have had experience with a vast number of ethnicities and languages as well as varied education levels. My teaching style is a mix of both teacher and student centered. There are times where it is important to give students the information they need as well as examples. Also, it is just as equally important to facilitate students initiating their own learning as this best helps with retaining and demonstrates true comprehension.

Justin L. - Knoxville, TN 37934 (21.3 mi) - Literature Tutor - $20.00/hr.
Current college student at the University of Tennessee Knoxville. Received 5s (the best score) on both AP writing assessments while in high school. Have never received a grade lower than an A in any writing related class during my academic career. I have a knack for teaching and I tutor my peers and friends in college writing courses. I enjoy being around children and find it easy to teach them the necessary processes to succeed after my services are done. I am also very proficient in the French language, as my mother is from Belgium and I took French 1 through AP in high school. Through encouragement and with a lot of creative hands on writing experience, I allow the pupil to make the mistakes they normally would and then through subject attention we progress through the necessary adjustments to form a writer who excels and enjoys the field.

Chad H. - Oak Ridge, TN 37830 (28.2 mi) - Literature Tutor - $40.00/hr.
I taught High School US, World and European history to grades 10 - 12. I taught AP European History and Government. I taught Geography, Civics, and Psychology for 5 years. I have owned my own construction firm for 10 years and worked in manufacturing. My specialty is European History with an emphasis in the classics. My literature background is not formal but is extensive. I have always emphasized the immeasurable distinction between education and schooling. Although the two are not necessarily mutually exclusive, in our era they are more and more. I strive to draw a student into a fascination with learning. If that occurs, then education is a fait accompli.

Jonathon E. - Sevierville, TN 37876 (36.9 mi) - Literature Tutor - $35.00/hr.
I have mentored various people since 2000, in all types of subjects, including math, science, social sciences, English, writing, literature, and other related subjects. My academic record is very strong, and I believe empowering those I work with every single time. The only pre-requisites are that you have to be willing to learn, and learn how to learn. I like to use the Socratic method, mainly by asking questions and challenging assumptions. In addition, I like to engage those I teach, challenging them to think about what they previously have not considered. I believe in building on successes, and offering constructive criticism, where appropriate.

Tara T - Maryville, TN 37803 (12.1 mi) - Literature Tutor - $37.00/hr.
I have always loved children. Children are precious and all have very unique learning techniques. When I was a senior at Maryville High School, I taught Spanish to first graders. My partner and I were in charge of making lesson plans and fulfilling these plans for each class. I really enjoyed seeing the children get excited about learning. I enjoy seeing children learn new things. I know that every child learns differently. It is important to get to know the children that you are teaching and figure out what teaching technique fits there needs. I feel like I do an excellent job of portraying what I am trying to teach.

Dwight B - Maryville, TN 37803 (14.3 mi) - Literature Tutor - $36.00/hr.
Since I earned my K-6 teaching license, I have worked with children in several different instructional/mentor/tutoring positions. I worked as a teaching assistant in Fifth Grade and First Grade. At the same time, I was also the Education Director for the local Boys and Girls Club. I have also subbed and worked as a tutor since March of 2009. I enjoy teaching and working with elementary aged children. I love those moments when, after much effort, the light of understanding dawns in a student's eyes. When it comes to how children acquire knowledge, I believe it is very important to help them build new knowledge based upon their prior knowledge and experiences. I am aware of the different ways that children learn and attempt to structure my approach in tutoring to match those learning style differences. Finally, I believe that building a positive relationship with both the pupil and his/
