C


Carmen P. – English/Spanish Tutor – North Hollywood, CA

“I encourage my students to find their own learning style. Everyone has their own way of learning. What works for one student may not work for another student. Learning takes hard work and dedication, but it should also be fun.”

Carol K. – English Tutor – Pensacola, FL

“I am a motivator. I take my role as a teacher/tutor seriously because I know I am teaching the future. Many of my students have only seen failure and I am committed to showing them success. Failure is not an option. I do not teach for tests but for skills that each of my students needs to be successful.”

Carrie C. – English/ESL/History & Social Studies Tutor – Cumberland, BC
“As a tutor I work with students to help them solve academic problems themselves, guiding them to their own solutions rather than simply providing them with one way to achieve their goals.”

Carrie M. – English/SAT/ACT Tutor – Greenville, NC

Daniel C. – English/History/Math Tutor – San Diego, CA

“I am of the opinion that the primary determinant of academic performance is motivation—motivation which can be easier to come by when students have the opportunity to interact with course material in ways that go beyond narrowly focused attempts to obtain certain marks.”

Daniel H. – English Tutor – Broken Arrow, OK

“Reading and writing, like so many skills, are things anyone can get better at, provided they put forth the effort and the practice. I want my students to get better at reading and writing so I have them actually doing a lot of reading and writing and hopefully I can make learning a fun and engaging process.”

Danielle M. – English Tutor – Blaine, WA

“Everyone should be given the opportunity to learn and we all need to take steps to learn. Learning doesn’t come easy for some people but that doesn’t mean that they’re incapable of learning just that it might take a little more push. Patience is the key to teaching and learning, both work together to create a better atmosphere.”

Darla K. – English/Math/Science Tutor – Waseca, MN

“I want students to experience the freedom that allows for expression (and creativity) within the parameters set forth within the classroom / school community. I also feel it is beneficial for students to sometimes work for an answer than “being told,” because it stretches their knowledge.”

Dave E. – English/History and Social Studies Tutor – Rochester, NY
“I believe that both learning and teaching are activities that require the active engagement of both the student and the instructor. It’s the teacher’s job to share his or her expertise and experience; it’s the student’s job to analyze and synthesize the knowledge shared by their instructors and to then make that knowledge their own.”

David D. – English/French/Math Tutor – Parksville, BC
“Students learn by doing, and by making mistakes. Teachers must listen, and ask the right questions, in a Socratic dialogue which guides students to the best answers in the best way.”

David S. – English/French Tutor – Toronto, ON

“For a long time I was involved with children’s programming at the Royal Ontario Museum, with children of varying age groups and abilities.

Having graduated from university, I decided to return to the field of education and put my skills and love of learning to good use.”

Davis H. – English Tutor – Greenville, SC

“I have been involved in education in a variety of ways for many years. Most recently I was a “teaching artist” in my local school district, a program which consisted of integrating an art form (music, in my case) into the curriculum standards of the class, working with the teacher on lesson plans.”

Derek M. – English/ESL/Spanish Tutor – Taylorsville, NC
“Students learn best by doing and feeling like they’re participating in something important. When students enjoy learning will they be able to truly achieve.”

Diana M. – English Tutor – Clarks Summit, PA
“Getting to know a student and determining their learning style is the best way to develop lessons, activities and study strategies for each individual student.”

Diane S. – English Tutor – Wappingers Falls, NY
“Each student in a class has an individual name and also has an individual learning style strength.  A teacher should strive to find the learning style(s) that work for each and every student.  Students metaphorically travel to the same destination with one lesson to the next. The important thing is to remember that there are many, many ways to get to that destination.”

Donna-Marie L. English/ESL Tutor – Berrien Springs, MI
“I follow the philosophy that every child must learn. They just need the proper tools, guidance, motivation and a good support system to be successful.”

Doris B. – English Tutor – Belton, SC

F

H


Hannah B. – English Tutor – Spokane, WA

Heidi S. – English/ESL/Science Tutor – Bellingham, WA

Helena R. – English/History and Social Studies/Math Tutor – Corpus Christi, TX
“I believe that in order for a student to get the full understanding and in-depth knowledge of a subject, they need to be able to apply the concepts to their lives and create active working knowledge. A student needs more than repetition of facts and data.”

J


Jacquelin V. – English/ESL Tutor – Southern Shores, NC

If we are using methods they enjoy it is easier to hold them accountable and they learn much more.”

Kellynd G. – English, Math & Science Tutor – Wrentham, MA
“Because each student is a unique individual with varying degrees of background knowledge and support, I scaffold lessons and differentiate instruction in order to meet the needs of each and every student.

“I expect my students to be adults, to act and work like adults. If not, then I show them how. I tell my students that I believe everyone wants to be their best, so I tell them they start at 100/A and work their way down. If at all. I encourage their creativity in all fields while demanding they know the facts. I support, encourage, and look for the positive.”
