I am a firm believer that everyone learns in their own special way. Educators have to constantly adapt to student's in order to ensure learning is taking place. I also believe that education should be fun or at least entertaining. I received my Bachelors degree at the University of West Georgia. I am currently pursuing my Masters in in Education with a concentration in reading and mathematics. I have experience tutoring in elementary grade level grades K-3. Being a current elementary teacher allows me access to all subject. My current favorite subjects to teach are math and phonics.

1st Grade Math Tutor • +31 Subjects

I am a career elementary school teachers with over 25 years experience in grades K-6. I received my BS in Elementary Education from the University of Denver and my MA ED from Lesley College.In addition to teaching in multiple states within the United States, I spent 18 years teaching internationally. I feel that these experiences cultivated a great enthusiasm for learning. Exploring many cultures, ethnicities and unique individuals provides me with a broad foundation which I feel strengthens my ability to work with my students.My enthusiasm and positive attitude are characteristics consistently mentioned by my administrators as well as peers. My teaching approach is very student centered and hands on. I am a confident communicator and value the opportunity to work closely with the family as well as the classroom teacher if applicable.When I am not working as an educator I am usually involved with family. My four children, all in college or graduated, accompanied us during our years overseas and they are a fine testimony for our family values and love of education. They know to find me outdoors exercising, in a bookstore or library or in the kitchen if they are in need of support.

Ben

10th Grade Math Tutor • +126 Subjects

I am a rising sophomore at Kenyon College, a small liberal arts school an hour out of Columbus, Ohio, majoring in Philosophy. It is difficult to identify a specialty of mine because I have worked with students from 1st grade through high school on topics ranging from elementary science to trigonometry test prep, but my foremost strength is the three sections of the SAT. I have roughly three years of experience tutoring and last year taught a test prep class. My approach to tutoring is to identify a students strengths and build upon them through frequent quizzes and reflective analysis. Additionally, having just gone through the college admissions process, I am privy to its length and complexity so can lend advice on anything, namely essays. I have plenty of experience writing and have been published in a local newspaper. While I think math is the easiest subject for me to teach, writing and writing skills are my favorite to teach because to see a writers progress is an extraordinary sight and, further, challenge.

1st Grade Tutor • +66 Subjects

I have worked in education for the past 16 years. My undergraduate was earned at the University of Portland in Elementary Education. After teaching 5th grade in Tucson for a couple years I wanted to be able to impact more students, so I earned my Masters in Educational Leadership through Northern Arizona University. My passion is working with students to help them love learning. Throughout my career I have worked in many different positions where my teaching was needed to benefit students. Some of those positions have included 5th grade teacher, 7th grade ELA teacher, HS Algebra teacher, assistant principal, principal, and learning support coordinator. In addition to the titles that I have held, working with students to help them understand a concept is extremely rewarding, so I have continued to tutor throughout my career.I am also the mother of three kids. Two of my children have are qualified gifted and have needs in school to be challenged academically, so they are not bored. One of my children is a struggling reader who needs many different approaches to learn concepts. As I have worked with each of my own children, I truly understand the importance of finding the right person. Students need to work with a tutor, so they can learn and feel good about the way they learn.During my time away from student I am an active person who loves to hike, bike, play sports and read.

I grew up in Northeast Portland and got my Bachelor of Arts from the University of Oregon in 2007. From there I went on to teaching overseas in first Kenya followed by Nicaragua then Romania and lastly Japan. I knew I had a passion for teaching by this point so I returned to Portland and earned my Masters in Teaching at Concordia University in secondary level English Language Arts. I am now working towards adding an English as a Second Language endorsement.In each of the aforementioned countries, I have tutored students between the ages of nine years old to 47 years old. My daughter who is almost three, is my newest student. I am most knowledgable in tutoring English Language Arts and prefer elementary to high school grades and subjects.From my experiences, I know that hands-on learning that is relevant to the student is the best way for a student to retain information. I like to be creative with learning and get excited to use music, exercise, art, and the environment in my teaching for example.Outside of teaching I enjoy spending time with my husband and two young daughters, exercising, gardening, reading, eating good food, photography, dancing and enjoy outdoor activities.

1st Grade Reading Tutor • +53 Subjects

I am a retired teacher after thirty years of teaching Reading Recovery, Title One Reading, Reading Intervention, ESL and Dyslexia. My children are grown and my grandchildren are now learning how to read and write. That should have been enough for most people but,I found I have a skill to help children overcome the life- altering disability with difficulty in reading and writing. I have seen them suffering and their parents frustrated and scared. These children have a good ability to learn. They have many talents and unique contributions to share. They just need appropriate help. They have novel ways of acquiring knowledge. Since I am uniquely qualified in the complete range of reading differences, I can help serve children and a wide variety of approaches.Early identification and treatment are the keys to helping children grow in school and in their lives. Let me help you help your child. End the suffering now!

I have my Bachelor of Science degree in Exceptional Student Education which has given me the foundation to know how to work with diverse types of students. I have my certifications in Elementary Education and Exceptional Student Education. I have also obtained my English for Speakers of Other Languages (ESOL) endorsement. I have knowledge of several research-based interventions to help students achieve academic success.I understand the importance of tailoring tutoring sessions based on individual student needs to help the students have the "tools" to become successful learners in the classroom. I take notes during my sessions to identify strengths and weaknesses that I am observing to help drive future instruction. I work hard to build a rapport with students which helps them feel at ease through motivation and encouragement. One of my goals when working with students is to help them gain a lifelong love of learning that will continue on throughout their school careers.Thank you for taking time out of your busy day to read my profile ! :)
