Jeremy G. - Kokomo, IN 46901 (38 mi) - Reading Comprehension Tutor - $35.00/hr.
I am heavily involved in psychological research which requires me to comprehend a lot of material and reiterate it back in my own words. I am currently a senior at Indiana Univeristy Kokomo. I will graduate in spring 2013 with a B.A. in Psychology and minors in Leadership Studies as well as International Studies/Relations. My college coursework has a focus on psychology but my degree requires me to have a very liberal education, as such, I have taken classes in english, history, sciences, economics, government, and many others. I am a student leader and have been for the past two years. I am currently Student Body President of IU Kokomo and represent over 3,000 students. Past leadership expereices include being psychology club treadurer and president, orientation leader, and student senator. I have supplemented my college education by working on a behavioral/mental health unit. I have al

Meagan R. - Lafayette, IN 47909 (39 mi) - Reading Comprehension Tutor - $20.00/hr.
I graduated from Jefferson High School in the spring of 2012. I now attend Indiana University-Purdue University in Fort Wayne. I have two younger siblings and 4 younger step-siblings that I have helped with their homework, or helped them better understand material assigned to them. Their ages range from 8-17. I know how to explain certain subjects in multiple ways to ensure that eventually the student will understand the material. I am very patient, and I understand that some people learn at slower rates than others. I am majoring in nursing, though I considered teaching English before making this decision. I love teaching, and am looking to make some extra money for things I need while in college. My teaching style varies upon subject and student.

Lisa B - Lucerne, IN 46950 (16.4 mi) - Reading Comprehension Tutor - $41.50/hr.
I have been teaching Reading Strategies and Basic Math at a community college for approximately 10 years. I have also taught pre-school, 3rd/4th in one classroom, and 5th, the last 2 classrooms were self-contained. I have experience in substitute teaching on various levels in a variety of school corporations. I also taught one year of elementary art for a parochial school. Along with teaching at the community college, I tutor students in Basic Math. Education does not stop with books. I incorporate "real life" experiences with the material being presented. I try to make the subject fun and meaningful to the student. My classes are run with volunteer participation. (They "jump and do" at the board.) I enjoy helping others and watching the lightbulbs come on with whatever level of student I am working with. I take homework, quizzes, and tests personally. They evaluate the student

Leanna R - Camden, IN 46917 (25.8 mi) - Reading Comprehension Tutor - $50.00/hr.
As the daughter of an educator, I not only grew up understanding that every child could learn, but that every child deserved a sincere smile. Working with preschoolers has certainly tested my patience at times but also has increased my understanding of how a child learns and challenged me to find different methods of explaining information. I have always enjoyed learning myself and believe that children often do so as well if presented in a clear way that they find enjoyable. As a graduate of Purdue University's School of Liberal Arts, I have been provided with a well-rounded education consisting of a variety of subjects. My degree is in Psychology, with minors in English and Religious Studies. Since graduating from Purdue in 2004, I have worked in social work, child care, and education. Now I focus on tutoring and freelance writing which both allow me to schedule my own time and explore

Douglas P - West Lafayette, IN 47906 (38 mi) - Reading Comprehension Tutor - $39.50/hr.
My main goal is to help students develop confidence and competence. I believe every student has his or her own particular gifts, talents, and skills, and it is my duty as an educator to inspire them to utilize their potential. To this end, I strive for subject mastery, critical thinking, and problem-solving. In the end, I expect excellence from my students, but I also deeply value growth. My ultimate goal is to produce students who are properly knowledgeable in the subject matter, engaged in the learning process, and excited about applying this learning in their own lives. I love to write. As a pastor, professor, and playwright, I have actively been writing for the past ten years. I have written hundreds of sermons, lesson plans, papers and newsletters. I have also written five plays for young adults, one of which was published. I earned a master's degree in Divinity, a bachelor'

David F - Lafayette, IN 47901 (39 mi) - Reading Comprehension Tutor - $33.00/hr.
I have extensive experience teaching writing to a diverse group of students. After graduating from Indiana University with a BA in English, I taught high school English in East Lansing Michigan from 1988 until 1991. In the fall of 1991, I began work toward a MA in English at the University of New Mexico. Upon earning my MA, I taught English Composition at Grand Valley State University and Albion College. Recurrently, I am a volunteer writing tutor at the Lafayette Adult Resource Academy in Lafayette, Indiana. To the extent that I can, I tailor my teaching to the individual needs of the student. Typically, after assessing the student’s writing and discussing what he or she perceives to be their strength and weakness as a writer and determining what his or her goals are in terms of improving their writing, I proceed to develop a curriculum or plan that I believe will enable the student to

Gregory A - Lafayette, IN 47901 (39.3 mi) - Reading Comprehension Tutor - $62.50/hr.
Students learn to write by writing (and by reading). I have used a number of different text books but I find that students learn best when writing about something that matters to them. My approach to tutoring, then, would be to find out what a student truly cares about and start from there. In addition, I would begin by taking a diagnostic writing sample in order to see what mechanical issues seemed most important to address. I would never attempt to tutor a student with some kind of formulaic, standardized regimen of study but would work my hardest to tailor tutoring sessions to the individual needs of each student. I have been teaching English Composition at the college (freshman) level for the past three years. Thus, I feel I would be especially helpful as a tutor for high school students who are interested in both understanding what will be expected of them in college English/w

Brenda J - Wabash, IN 46992 (42 mi) - Reading Comprehension Tutor - $34.50/hr.
In previous work evaluations my supervisor has described my teaching style as "Experiential". I have a passion to teach with example and hands on practial skills. I created a game in which to teach parents and children how to get rid of their "hang ups". My motto is "Reaching Higher" and I thoroughly enjoy helping a child or adolescent reach higher to understand their full potential. It is an "ah ha" moment for both myself and an individual that I might be teaching, when they "arrive" at that point, to reveal their own learning style. As famous author and Auschwitz survivor Victor Frankl once said; "When a man finds his "why" to live, his "how" becomes easier. This can be applied to learning. Currently I am employed as a home-based Family Specialist in Social Work. I teach parenting to persons in their homes. As I teach adults new parenting methods, I also teach children how to re

Robert W - Mishawaka, IN 46545 (43.6 mi) - Reading Comprehension Tutor - $38.50/hr.
I have a Bachelor’s Degree in Liberal Studies from Purdue University with a focus on Modern English Literature. I have also spent several years as a full-time substitute teacher for a number of Northwest Indiana city school systems including Portage, Westville, Michigan City, LaPorte, and Valparaiso. During my teaching career, several teachers were happy to request and recommend my services for long term teaching assignments, including a four month assignment to a sixth grade Language Arts class for Michigan City Public Schools. Also, my services at Valparaiso Community Schools were respected enough to earn me a spot as an in-home instructor for two students considered too ill to attend classes. I am very passionate about learning and I do believe that knowledge is the key for anyone who wishes to advance their goals. I treat everyone with respect and I am confident that anyone can learn

Monique H - Griffith, IN 46319 (48.4 mi) - Reading Comprehension Tutor - $44.50/hr.
As a teacher, one of the most important things I can do is create a community of learners, which helps me determine how to assess my students. Creating a community of learners allows me to open up the door of connection between my students and myself.I have earned a degree in Journalism and finishing up with my degree and certification in English and Secondary Education. During the last eight years, I have been tutoring inner city students in English, writing,math, and reading. One of the greatest joys of teaching is seeing each one of my students grow as an individual and academically.I have always wanted to be a teacher since I can remember. I wanted to give back to my students what was given to me. "A chance to to learn and grow". For me, it seemed only natural to obtain a career in the area of my first love "TEACHING". I teach because it's who I am and what I do. When I see my stude
