Juliann D. - Peace Dale, RI 02883 (14.7 mi) - Geography Tutor - $20.00/hr.
First teaching job was in a school for severely autistic children. After being there for a year I taught in a residential home for boys. This was challenging but probably one of my favorite jobs as a teacher. Because of the distance from home to work (about 1-1/2 hrs.), I applied at an urban school 20 minutes from my home. My first job there was managing the Young Parents Program. This was a program for high school girls who were pregnant or had already had a child. This program allowed the young girls to attend school. Due to budget restrictions it was cut. I was offered a position as a special education teacher in the high school. I have been doing that for the past 15 years. I taught American History, Geography, World History, Government, English, Reading, Reading Intervention and Wilson Reading. I retired this past June and moved from Connecticut to Asheville. My style of

Marc D. - Enfield, CT 06082 (52.5 mi) - Geography Tutor - $32.50/hr.
I have taught history/social studies in Somers, Connecticut for the past eight years. Additionally, I have an extensive background in writing. I have taught students from a variety of backgrounds. My first three years of teaching were at the middle school level, teaching courses in Ancient and World History. Currently I teach at the high school level. I have taught courses in U.S History (early and late), World History, Civics/Government, Current Affairs, and Psychology. However, I am not just a teacher of content, but also writing. My school district continues to place a tremendous amount of emphasis on reading and writing skills. All of my courses emphasize research techniques, essay writing and primary source analysis. Due to my experiences and efforts of motivating, challenging, and encouraging my students, I feel that I could and would be a very helpful, memorable, and eff

Emily B - Wakefield, RI 02879 (11.4 mi) - Geography Tutor - $37.00/hr.
I enjoy teaching math, science, social studies and language arts. I like to use many teaching strategies because I believe all children learn in different ways. I like to use hands-on activities, visual aids, music, math manipulatives and traditional styles. I have great classroom management skills. I believe I am patient and very organized. I enjoy looking for lessons and ideas on the internet. I enjoy putting activities together that reach the education goals. I believe all children can learn if they are given the proper guidance and instruction. Teaching has been a life long goal for me. I decided I wanted to teach when I was in the third grade. My third grade teacher left an impression on me that lasted through out my life. I completed the elementary education program at Rhode Island College in May, 2006. I have been a substitute in the field for two years. I am actively searching fo

Tyson B - East Matunuck, RI 02879 (12.8 mi) - Geography Tutor - $39.00/hr.
I recently graduated cum laude from the University of Rhode Island with two Bachelors of Science in Marine Geology and Maritime Law. I teach sailing and environmental education in the summers.
This means very little however as I aspire, one day, to become a lighthouse keeper. Sadly, few can find such a position these days.
I enjoy writing, science, mathematics, literature and most all music. When I taught sailing to young kids, I used to dress up like a pirate. I have lots of energy. I know I'm doing my job right when kids start laughing.
When I taught to teenagers, I kept in mind my own experiences at that age.
If I'm helping a student study hard on that big, important test that might have the ability to crush the student's soul - I bust out my acoustic guitar and sing about how It's The End of The World As We Know It (And This Test Means Very Little In The Long Run).

Gauthami Y - groton, CT 06340 (13.3 mi) - Geography Tutor - $54.00/hr.
Math is fun. Teaching math is more fun. I love playing with numbers and helping children also play with numbers and solve problems in the most easiest manner. I really wonder why does the clock move fast when I am in a math class. I have been in a school environment as my favorite pass time was to spend with children. Math is my favorite course. I helped students achieve good grip on calculations and solving problems. In Short- Teaching kids gives me peace and satisfaction in life.

Frank M - Wakefield, RI 02879 (14 mi) - Geography Tutor - $39.00/hr.
As a very academically driven student with a background in a wide range of disciplines, extensive academic tutoring experience, and experience working with youth, I am confident in my ability to provide high quality tutoring to students. Although my formal educational background is primarily in Political Science and Philosophy, I have tutored College, High School and Middle School students in subjects such as English, History, Writing, Reading, Government, World Affairs, and some Math and Science. A strength of mine, applicable to any subject, is the ability to help a young person learn, respond to, and go beyond, the expectations of teachers or instructors. In the world of academia, it is certainly a strength to have a solid background in a particular discipline, but it is even more important to help a student develop the right conceptual and analytical tools necessary for him/her to

Barbara S - Gales Ferry, CT 06335 (14.8 mi) - Geography Tutor - $65.00/hr.
I have a Bachelors Degree in Geology anda Masters Degree in organic chemistry. I was a teaching assistant in graduate school for both general and organic chemistry. After graduate schooI I worked at Pfizer for 18 years as a chemist. In this position I was responsible for the design and synthesis of many novel compounds and read the chemistry literature extensively. As I gained experience I mentored and advised younger colleagues. I’ve been told by many people that I explain things in an understandable manner. My ultimate aim would be to teach the student how to successfully learn on his own. I would first determine the set of circumstances unique to each student. For example, are they far behind their class or just having problems grasping some concepts? I would modify my teaching style depending on the situation, but in general I identify facts that need to be memorized and concepts

Linda R - Preston, CT 06365 (14.8 mi) - Geography Tutor - $43.00/hr.
Being a mother of three adult children and a new grandmother, I adore children. Teaching Sunday School over many years has also brought me great joy. I also personally relate to a child's individual method of learning because I truly believe we all learn differently. There are no stupid or dumb children, only unique minds. Being patient, kind, and encouraging are only a few of my strengths, and I believe I can help any child reach their potential, even when they do not. I have two adult children who have had learning disabilities while growing up, and fully understand a parent's frustration in encouraging their child over these particular hurdles. I have a BS in Business Administration and achieved my degree over the period of nine years while working and raising my family. In addition, I have volunteered as a Sunday School teacher over a thirty year period, teaching ages 2-12 years

But Then A time came where I wanted to feel Like I was helping the community so I dedided to take a career change and I got a job in child care. I worked at a military daycare with children from infants to pre-school. I enjoyed my job and I felt really good. My husband and I had guradian ship of his nieces and I helped with their homework and also they had friends that came over and needed help. So I felt good and enjoyed helping the children and I felt good when they came by the house and told me they passed a test or got an A in their assignment. My teaching style is hands on I think most children learn better when they can see it for themselves and how things work. For younger children I try to make up a song and sign it for them and they

Amanda B - Uncasville, CT 06382 (15.6 mi) - Geography Tutor - $40.50/hr.
I have recently graduated from Roger Williams University in Bristol, Rhode Island. While attending university, I studied various courses- natural science, social science, criminal justice, biology- but my true passion lies in foreign language. French and Portuguese were my primary languages studied. I am pleased to say that I was lucky enough to have studied abroad for a semester in Paris, France. Throughout my life, I have tutored colleagues (though in a non-professional setting) in foreign language. My philosophy is that education should be as individualized as possible because people do not learn in the same manner. For instance, some people are visual learners while others, like myself, are auditory learners. I strongly believe that educators should expose their students to as many fields and ideas as possible. For instance, when I am teaching, I prefer to instruct students on differ
