Microsoft Excel Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Adams Basin, NY

I respect all children and the variety of ways in which they learn. I firmly believe that children (by nature) are curious about learning and therefore, capable of learning when presented with an engaging program of study. My instructional approach often entails the use of games, as a medium to stimulate my students. In addition, I always strive to enhance my students’ self-esteem, because I believe in them and their abilities. My objective as a tutor is to utilize the teaching strategies that I have acquired, in conjunction with my knowledge about your child (his/her interests and learning preferences) to develop a teaching plan that will take him/her to the next level of his/her education. I was fortunate to receive a very distinguished education through a local school of the Arts program and an Ivy League institution. Both experiences produced within me a tenacious commitment to

I really enjoy working with students and find a great deal of joy in teaching. I believe that all students have the capability of understanding any problem as long as enough practice and perseverance is involved. I am patient, composed, and understanding enough to help any student find their way through a problem, and am certain to let the student truly understand it before I consider the problem completed. Ultimately when I teach/tutor, my goal is to help students strive to reach their full potential, while encouraging them to actually enjoy learning. Through teaching, I aim to foster a feeling of achievement in my students that they can hopefully carry with them through the rest of their lives. As a double major in Mathematics (BA) and Computer Science (BA), I found myself facing many difficult problems in my four years at SUNY Geneseo. In such rigorous programs, both BA's helped me de

In my 23 years as a teacher and administrator, I have been involved in all aspects and levels of education including teaching all grades K-12, instructional and curriculum leadership, professional development, building management, community relations, and student management. Throughout these many experiences I have had a great deal of contact working with all types of students from diverse backgrounds and with various learning styles. I have worked with students in urban, suburban, rural, special education, and alternative settings. My greatest strength, and what I believe sets me apart from many other candidates, is a passion for education coupled with a great joy found in positively impacting the lives of ALL students. My underlying belief and philosophy is that all students can learn, and should be allowed to do so in the environment that best suits their own particular learning st

I provide a stimulating learning environment that encourages students to trust their own opinions while fostering confidence in order for students to realize their full potential. It is my goal to be firm but compassionate. Through my teaching experience thus far, I have found the method of facilitating rather than dictating to be a highly beneficial style of teaching. I have learned that if students construct their own learning experiences they will not only retain information longer but they will also become more confident in their ability. Being devoted to this assertion confirms that I have made the right career choice for myself. I love working with students and will continue to strive to be a positive influence in their lives. I have been an enthusiastic educator for over 8 years. I am currently employed as a high school teacher of regents level earth science and AP environmental s

Initially, I began tutoring in Potsdam. I was able to work with students struggling in Math. In addition, I have teaching experience in Texas and New York. In Texas, I was able to teach summer school Math in order to assist students to pass their Exit-level exam. In New York, I worked as a director and tutor for Huntington Learning Center. I care very deeply about the success of each of my students. My degree in Math did not come easily and I had to work very hard. I understand the frustrations of the students and try to show them how to complete their work in different ways. I believe that with support and encouragement children can learn material that they find very challenging. I have the patience and empathy to do that.

I tend to work well with individuals and small groups, independent of their age - I have worked with everyone from elementary school and below up to adult learners on a factory floor. My main goal is to teach by finding out what the pupil already knows and relating the subject matter to them through the already established knowledge base. Combining this this direct experience with analogy tends to bring what sometimes starts as an incomprehensible subject into the realm of what they already know and have a feel for, making them more comfortable with the subject and better able to grasp the concepts. As a mechanical engineering graduate with 3 years of practical experience in the field, I am constantly curious of the world around me and take great delight in sharing and imparting that knowledge in others. The degree itself grounds me firmly in the math and science worlds - everything f

My teaching style focuses on ensuring students walk away with a long term understanding of principles and concepts and the ability to apply these versus just memorization. I focus on interactive discussions to draw out current student roadblocks in understanding and tailor the tutoring sessions based upon a specific student’s needs. As

As a CPA for the last 10 years, I am very driven to achieve my goals. I was always at the top of my class in college and was called upon by my professors to tutor other accounting students.

I teach in a manner appropriate to the learner. I can be very basic or I can teach at a higher level, depending on the individual. I am very patient and will go over topics until the person understands before moving forward. I have found that sometimes people do not understand basic concepts and that is why they are having trouble learning. I do not have a teaching degree however, I have 30 plus years experience in Finance. I worked at Eastman Kodak for 37 years. During that time, I have taught bookkeeping to new employees, credit and collection work, working with Dun & Bradstreet, how to determine credit worth, reconciliations and problem solving. I have taught many people the 'Kodak' way to do their job. I have always been highly motivated and able to work well in a team environment.

I believe learning is a two-way process. It needs to start with a student who has a true desire to learn and then, of course, the teacher needs to have a true desire to bring about the learning. A successful combination will result in mastering of concepts and development of skills as opposed to simply reciting facts. I believe students will more readily learn if the subject matter is made relevant to the world they live in. With the fast pace of technology development it needs to be stressed that learning is a life-long endeavor. Teaching the concepts and developing the skills will allow the students to better understand developments and determine for themselves the relevance and importance. My education comes from both a local teaching-oriented college and a nationally ranked research university. I have taught in settings ranging from one-on-one tutoring to lecturing a class of over 2

As an individual involved in advanced development activities at Eastman Kodak, I had the opportunity to apply my knowledge of science into product development and I also had the opportunity to train other individuals in the workings of a new product as that product became commercialized and a large staff of engineers and technicians were needed for the product's manufacture. These experiences gave me extensive experience working with people of diverse backgrounds and much experience developing technical documentation. I suggesfully bridged language barriers several times during these activities. I am an electrical engineer with a strong background in physics, computer science, and discrete mathematics. I previously have tutored students in college physics in areas of mechanics, electromagnetism, and thermodynamics. I have have applied the principles of physics to many engineering

I enjoy teaching, tutoring and training others. I believe that each individual has their own personal learning style and I match that style in my teaching approach. I meet the student on their own personal level. I am extremely patient, kind and thorough, as well as firm and fair in reaching students. I believe that a student should be comfortable and calm in their surroundings. I have 10 years of cumulative academic tutoring, industrial training and personal training experience.

As a Financial Analyst at Fortune 500 equivalent company in the Republic of Zambia, I not only combined my mathematics expertise with strategy principles to execute my functions, but also I secured a part-time job as a mathematics tutor at a near-by university. I excelled at tutoring students in calculus, geometry, trigonometry, statistics, and algebra – the subjects that I understand so well as a result of my majors in Engineering Economics and Mathematics in college. During the two years I tutored, students in my classes had the highest overall passing grades in mathematics, and most of them reported mathematics as the one class they liked the most and found to be the easiest in the exams. Most recently, as an MBA student at the Simon Graduate School of Business Administration, University of Rochester, I occasionally coached first-year MBA students in Statistics, Mathematics and Fina
