Amy
Certified Special Education Teacher/Tutor
I am a certified special education teacher working with K-5 students in southern Maine. I have worked with special needs students Kindergarten through eighth grade both in the classroom and tutoring. I have been working with children in and out of the classroom for almost 20 years. As a special educator I believe every child to be unique in their educational needs. It is important, if those needs are not being met in the classroom, to supplement or accentuate their education in a one on o... Read more

Janice Q. Reading, Vocabulary, Core Subjects
My teaching style is encouraging, caring, and flexible. In my 21 years of teaching, I have learned how to take children from what they know to what they want to know. I feel that developing a positive relationship at the beginning is crucial to any child's success. Children need to feel valued and accepted. I feel that children can achieve anything they believe they can achieve. My passion for teaching comes from working hard to achieve my own goals and helping a classmate graduate from ... Read more
Michelle
English & K-8 Education major ready to tutor!
Working with children & helping out children younger than me has always been my passion. I grew up on a dead end street where many large families lived. Growing up, I always played teacher with my sisters and spent most of my middle school and early high school years babysitting all of the children younger than me on my street. Even at a young age, I showed that I was meant to teach by helping everyone out with their homework when I babysat them. When I started to out grow my babysitting ... Read more

Pamela

I have been homeschooling my three children for the past ten years from kindergarten all the way up through middle school. I have loved teaching my own kids and would love to extend my knowledge and expertise into helping others. For the past couple of years I ... Read more
Marie
Elementary Teacher with Master's in Literacy
I originally completed college with a bachelor's degree in Business Administration, thinking this was the road to success. After spending six years working in Boston, MA for a company in their accounting department while raising young children at home, I felt completely dissatisfied with the path I chose. After my third child entered Kindergarten, I too went to school to take more classes to obtain a teaching certification in children's education. For six years, I taught every subject in f...

Mary
Comprehensive Writing Instruction Made Easy!
My interest in teaching lies in my desire to empower anyone who is in a learning environment. Over the years I have tutored college students, I often encounter students who are struggling with their self-confidence as much as they are with where to place a semi-colon. By meeting the learner where they are in the process of writing, I learned that it is much easier for a student to grasp a concept, exercise their knowledge and master a challenge when they felt supported. Perhaps more importan... Read more
