Jared

10th Grade Reading Tutor • +36 Subjects

If you're looking for a distinguished tutor of English, then please look no further. I am an excellently skilled tutor that is ready to take up the task of helping you or your kids become proficient in the arts of creating and editing essays, grammar and mechanics, literature, public speaking, reading, and writing. I graduated from the Allen University with a degree in English in 2012 and am honored to say that I graduated second in my class with a 3.9 GPA. Since then, I have been working to get into the education field more and aspire to gain my Master's degree in Education and become a teacher. I have also passed the GACE (Georgia Assessment of the Certification of Educators) and hope, with my Master's degree, to obtain full certification. I have had great success in tutoring at the college level as well as the primary level and have experience in working with age groups from about 5-10, 12-14, and 17-25 in all of the subjects as listed above. While I am apt in all of these subjects, I find that my favorites to tutor are literature and creating/editing essays. I believe what helps me in being successful in my tutoring is that I like to get an understanding of my students and discover what interest and hobbies they have. This allows me to relate the teaching material to what they enjoy and also find out what the root of the issue is for them to learn the material. This way it, makes learning more fun than it normally would. This also helps them get an understanding of me, and the things that I enjoy which are basketball, video games, music (multiple genres), writing, politics, Marvel, DC, movies, swimming, amusement parks, and bowling. If you or your child share any of these interests, then it will make that bond even better. I look forward to helping you or your children. Just remember, you can't be distinguished without being a master of English.

Ashley

AP Biology Tutor • +11 Subjects

I graduated Magna Cum Laude from Loyola University Chicago with a B.S. in Biology in May 2013. My tutor experience ranges over five years total. The most recent experience I had was being a Biology and Chemistry tutor at Loyola's Center for Tutoring and Academic Excellence. My job entailed facilitating collaborative learning groups that allowed students to discuss topics, problem solve and overcome academic difficulties. My philosophy is not to teach or lecture students. I like to serve as a guide to fill in missing information to help the student realize the answers. They have all the knowledge they need, it is just a matter of discovering the best way for them to study and comprehend it. I love to see my tutees be successful and go above and beyond to develop sessions around his or her needs and learning styles. During my tutor role at Loyola, I was also a Tutor Lead who developed training workshops for fellow tutors on subjects such as time management and study skill tips.Additionally, while at Loyola, I participated in undergraduate research working with the Malaria parasite. I was a member and served as the Vice President of the Panhellenic sorority Alpha Sigma Alpha. Currently, I am taking classes part time at UW- Milwaukee to complete a teaching certification and Master's Degree program in Secondary Education Curriculum and Instruction for Science. My current goals are to become a high school science teacher and continue to positively impact the lives of students.

Paige

1st Grade Tutor • +23 Subjects

Hello, my name is Paige McMinn. I believe all students deserve the best opportunities so that each individual child has all the means to be successful. I am an adaptable person. I have found through my experiences that being adaptable is essential, I am able to change my plans when needed, I make sure that each of my students get what they need in order to be succeed as best they can. I am determined. Along with being conscientious, I feel as though I am very aware of the things around me and how they are changing, and how I am a part of the environment around me.I am able to give a child the care and the guidance they need to become the best student to their ability. To start on the education path I began in high school teaching a dance class to preschoolers on the weekends, I quickly found out this is something that I loved doing so I started teaching an after school Religious Education program. During high school I went to the elementary school to be an aid in a first and second grade classroom. I enrolled in a college program for Early Education and Special Education,during this time in college I was hired at the local YMCA for the before and after school program. The director started to trust me with more responsibilities while I was there, such as running the before and after school programs, summer program, and teaching preschool. With a heavy heart I left my students and co-workers when I was offered a Special Education job in Bennington, Vermont, for the past two years I have taught Special Education in the Grades Kindergarten to Second grade.

Sarah

Algebra Tutor • +24 Subjects

The field of education allows me to live my passion of inspiring others to not only acquire a specific skill or merely understand a new concept but to also ignite in their hearts the love of knowledge and learning. I think it's most satisfying, after hard work and practice, to see that both teacher and student were able to cooperatively work together to be successful in reaching their goal.So, if you're looking for someone to be patient, thorough, and willing to go over things once, twice, or even ten times, and you're considering me, then you got the right tutor.

Aliyah

AP Music Theory Tutor • +6 Subjects

I recently graduated from Berklee College of Music with my Master of Music in Contemporary Performance with a concentration in production. Before that, I attended Arizona State University and received my Bachelor of Music degree in Music Education with an emphasis in French horn performance. I have always loved music and sharing my knowledge with others, and my educational experiences, along with other touring performance and civic engagement organizations, have allowed these two passions to intersect. If I had to put a title on my work, I would list a number of things - performer, composer, arranger, orchestrator, producer, educator. However, I love to condense these ideas into one word - artist. My philosophy is to use my skills and my network to equip my students with the tools they need to succeed at their specific goals. When I'm not making music, I love reading and getting outside to provide a sense of balance in my life and seek new sparks of inspiration.
