Tutoring Especially For Home-Schoolers

Avg response < 7 hrs
(5)
I have been tutoring children since 1980. I love doing it and have had a lot of success teaching children. I enjoy teaching and I want my students to enjoy our lessons too. I have a great deal of respect for homeschooling and prefer tutoring those who are home-schooled. I am very good with shy or nervous children. I'm also good with children who have become discouraged and dislike doing schoolwork. I have 11 students I'm tutoring now, from my youngest student who is 4 years old, up to one who is 15 years old (I've been helping the 15-year-old since he was 10), and one adult guitar students. My after-school hours and weekends are quite full now, so I'd like to get homeschooling students or children I can work with during the day some other way.

Mr. Rick has been our children tutor for almost 1 year and I can't say enough how amazed we are by his patience, teaching style and empathy. Our 7 year old became a first grader that loves to read and write stories for fun. He was also a tremendous help with math and phonics. After a few months, our 4 years old was so excited by all the work her big brother was doing with Mr. Rick, that she he started to teach her a few minutes here and there and now she is a pre-K able to read K-1st grade books! It's not just about the academics, but the motivation and work ethics that Mr. Rick helped to instill in our children. I would strongly recommend him to any family looking for a private teacher. Kudos to Mr. Rick!

I began my official tutoring job at Sierra College as an English/ writing tutor. I helped my peers review and organize their essays and made sure it was written in the correct format; MLA and APA. After a year of tutoring at Sierra College Tutor Center, I began tutoring kids privately in their homes. I have tutored 1st grade- 8th grade Language Arts levels. I still tutor children privately and I am now hired as an online English teacher for kids. I teach international students how to speak English. I have received a TEFL certification (Teaching English as a Foreign Language). I have an Associate's Degree in General Business.

Victoria is amazing!! We could not be happier with the help she's brought into our home for both Tutoring and child care . Victoria is great about scheduling / communicating dates and times , which I feel is always so hard when having multiple kids who are active . Academically and socially she has been a great asset to our three kids weekly after-school regimen . I love that she is also CPR certified as that was a very important element with leaving our kids ages 8,6 and 5 alone with her. Third grade comes with lots of new academic milestones and since having Victoria as a tutor we have seen great improvements in our child's attitude and work. She is thorough in what she does and loves to work with kids. I would definitely recommend her .

I am a Mechanical Engineering student. I have been tutoring Math ( Algebra, Pre Calculus, Trigonometry, and Calculus) for 2 years at Miami Dade College. When I earned my Associate in Arts, I left the position to take a service trip to Carolina, Puerto Rico to teach. I worked with little ones every day at The Boys and Girls Club, and they loved us so much that they cried when we left. I speak French as my native language. So, if you need help with the conversational and grammatical aspects of French, I will be able to help you. I'm a tutor who is patient. I will find three ways to explain a concept to my students if they don't understand. Also, I explain it simple and that's why the students I taught at MDC do well in their classes. In my spare time, I'm on the river kayaking or watching soccer.

I've been tutoring students in Mathematics (Pre-Algebra, Algebra I, Algebra II, Geometry, Trig/Precalculus) for over 11 years. I've tutored dozens of students 1 on 1 privately, and more than 50+ students as a certified Mathnasium instructor. I love seeing my students' faces when they finally grasp a concept or get a good grade on a test. I'm here to tell you that Math CAN be learned by anyone; there's no such thing as not being a 'math person.' Math is a skill, and like any skill, it takes time, practice, and most importantly, the right guidance. That's where I come in. I'm excited to help your son/daughter achieve their goals

I love teaching and learning, and I am excited to share my passion with you! I was humbled and honored by my recent national nomination for the Lifetime Teaching Excellence Award (NCA, Washington, D.

How do you prepare for your first session with a tutor?
Before your first session with a new tutor, sit down and do a little preparation so you can get the most out of your tutoring experience.
