While I able to tutor students in math through Algebra 1, high school entrance exam test preparation, SAT prep, reading, and college essay writing, I most enjoy tutoring mathematics and assisting with college essay writing.

...years. Both of my children have learning challenges, so I have had to be constantly creative in how I teach them. If one approach doesn't work, I look for something new and try again. Seeing that "ah-ha" on any student's face when they finally understand a topic is such a great feeling as a teacher. I particularly like teaching writing skills. In my spare time I love to read, knit, and garden. I hope to...

...the University of Nevada, Reno for a few semesters. I loved working with students one on one and in a group setting. I was an elementary school ESOL teacher for three years and I'm just now starting my graduate program at Webster University. I worked with students in third through sixth grade, again in varying settings of one on one, in small groups, and whole class. Before teaching full time, I substituted and worked with...

...with their each unique challenges. I truly believe that everyone has the potential to be great and achieve their goals. I also believe that as a collective society, we don't always provide the resources or supports to help guide us to those goals. As a Varsity Tutor, I look forward to working with each individual and getting to know their strengths, challenges, goals and barriers. By working from the perspective and considering the whole person,...

...ACT, SAT, and PSAT. In test prep sessions, I like to begin with one or more diagnostic tests and then create a plan for the remainder of our time together. It's always my goal to make the best use of your time, so I encourage students to tell me what they'd like to work on. This not only ensures that the lesson is relevant, but also allows the student to take ownership of the learning...

I am most passionate about English and reading; however, I am willing and able to tutor in math and science. I am a firm believer in education of the whole child. While a correct answer is always great, learning critical thinking skills is even better. In...

My name is Amanda and I am an experienced, energetic tutor who loves to teach! I enjoy instilling a love for learning in all of my students and helping them reach their academic goals.

...highest standards, but I also respect all of their different ways of exhibiting excellence. Not all children learn in the same ways, so it is the teacher's responsibility to know their students and provide dynamic, multi-dimensional learning opportunities that allow all of the learners to be successful. I also believe its extremely important to create a comfortable open rapport between the teacher, student(s), and parent(s) that assists children in feeling supported while they work to...

...college classes I designed and taught ranged from developmental writing classes and freshman level rhetoric classes to specialized creative writing classes, senior-level classes business writing, and capstone classes in public policy. I firmly believe that putting the material in cultural and historical contexts gives students a concrete way to understand the lessons. I encourage students to analyze why the information is important and to apply their new knowledge in other situations. Teaching someone to use...

...obvious questions? everyone who works here had to go to elementary school. I simply smiled that's my why. And I tutor because my seventh grade algebra teacher tutored me, an honors student who would get kicked out of honors if I did not at least get a B in his class that I was failing. Who taught 7 classes a day came to school 45 minutes early every day to help one student be successful...
