robin c. - Hamburg, NY 14075 (52.5 mi) - Basic Learning Skills Tutor - $40.00/hr.
Teach multiple strategies and techniques for successful learning! My name is Robin and I have excellent teaching strategies for learning. I focus in on academic success, especially for struggeling learners. I start with the basics in all subject areas and make sure basic concepts are learned first then advance on to higher level thinking techniques to broaden my students overall knowledge in the core area they are studying. I have been teaching and tutoring for over 3 years now. I have done both resource base instruction and consult teaching with other teachers. Resource instuction is instruction done in small groups that works on developing skills, teaching strategies for stuggeling learners, and advancing already learned skills. Consult teaching in done during whole group instruction and two teachers team up to help advance stuggeling learners or learners with disabilities. I en

Sue J - Cuba, NY 14727 (13.4 mi) - Basic Learning Skills Tutor - $43.50/hr.
Teaching young people and seeing them succeed is such a reward. Many students find the conventional school setting difficult and work with greater success in a one on one setting. Getting to know the student and his or her learning style along with some background enables a tutor to create an atmosphere where the student will be most successful. The student can feel comfortable asking questions, which is not always the case in a traditional classroom. My goal as a tutor is to have a student comfortable and successful! After receiving a degree in Sociology from a New York State University, I went on to earn a provisional teaching certificate in Biology. I have twenty-one graduate hours in Reading and eleven graduate hours in Early Childhood Education. My previous work experience had me working with families where one adult was in need of a GED. I have tutored students from elementa

Jonathan G - Olean, NY 14760 (17.2 mi) - Basic Learning Skills Tutor - $43.00/hr.
Teaching and working with children not only educates them but it educates myself in the process. I get to touch up on materials that the children are learning, as well as learn better ways to educate students. Patience is what I believe is the most important aspect of teaching. Children can become unfocused very easily. When children are distracted it may be very difficult to get them focused. Taking your time and making sure they refocus, can actually save time. If they are unfocused and miss a part of what is instructed, they will be confused throughout the whole process. It helps to be patient with the educating process. These educators who take the time to make sure everything is understood make a huge difference in each student. As a graduate of one of the top state schools in New York, I have always believed in the importance of education. I have a BA in art studio, 2 years of biol

Jason K - Olean, NY 14706 (17.5 mi) - Basic Learning Skills Tutor - $45.50/hr.
I am qualified to tutor writing, basic computer, reading, basic math, learning, biology, organic chemistry, genetics, geography, and various exams, all from college-level experiences. I had a scientific book in Barnes and Noble, ample graduate-level coursework in Education, experience as a High School teacher, and lived abroad. I have a B.S. in plant biotech from Cornell. I enjoy earnest and humble students, learning with and from them. I feel uncomfortable not learning laterally as well as vertically, seeing that to be knowledgeable, one must not just memorize but ruminate on what was memorized, making as many lateral connections as expedient. I like to simply direct and expand a student's learning as opposed to an artifactual accomplishment; however, my premiere obligation is punctual achievement of task.

Rita B - Allegany, NY 14706 (20.8 mi) - Basic Learning Skills Tutor - $47.00/hr.
I have a love of learning and teaching others. I believe everyone has their own unique abilities and learning styles. I strive to utilize strategies of instruction which focus on multiple learning styles. I also believe a mastery of basic concepts is necessary before more challenging material can be learned. I will work to provide your learner with instruction that will enable them to master concepts and move forward with confidence. I hold a BS from St. Bonaventure University in Elementary Education, and a Master’s Degree in Integrating Technology into the Classroom from Walden University. I graduated 7th of 645 from St. Bonaventure, where I focused on teaching with hands-on activities and technology infused lessons.

Melanie M - Ischua, NY 14743 (20.9 mi) - Basic Learning Skills Tutor - $47.50/hr.
I love working with children and I believe all children have the capacity to learn. Teachers need to recognize and learn the correct methods to instruct individual students using their strengths to overcome their weaknesses.
I employ various teaching styles based on the student, the subject area, and the goals desired.I am patient, understanding of outside circumstances, and strive to ease the student into the process so they do not become overwhelmed.
I keep the learning environment fun but structured so that the student has the best environment in which to learn. I have 10 years of experience as a substitute teacher in all areas of elementary education as well as high school classes.
I have 2 years experience as an in home tutor for a student with physical disabilities.

Roberta H - Houghton, NY 14744 (21.4 mi) - Basic Learning Skills Tutor - $41.00/hr.
My years of teaching have been greatly varied—traditional/ non-traditional, in the States /overseas, regular/special needs students, children/adults, and with a great variety of nationalities (Swedish, British, Slovak, Serbian, Jordanian, Russian, Dutch, South African, etc.). I have homeschooled our five children. I have provided English conversation classes for children. Also, I founded and directed an English educational resource center for expatriate children, like an international school, but smaller scale and with more individualized instruction. My teaching has covered K-12, and adults in business training. Now, back in the States, I’m substitute teaching, especially in the elementary and special education areas. For as long as I can remember, I have been a natural teacher. My children say that I can never take them on an outing without making a "school" trip out of it. I love lear

Michelle B - Franklinville, NY 14737 (25.8 mi) - Basic Learning Skills Tutor - $48.00/hr.
I have a wide range of teaching experience; most at the elementary level. I have worked in three different districts with various age groups. I have a Bachelor of Science degree-in the area of Physical Education. I then completed my Master of Science degree in the area of Elementary Education. I have New York State certification in three different areas-Childhood Education-Grades 1-6, Early Childhood Education-Birth –Grade 2 and Physical Education – Grades K-12. I have worked in a traditional classroom setting, as an AIS teaching offering students additional support in reading and math and I have worked in inclusion classrooms. These experiences allow me to work with a wide range of students. I believe that all children can be successful learners. The key is to find the method of teaching that works best for each child. Some children can read something and understand the informat

Immanuel D - Bradford, PA 16701 (27.8 mi) - Basic Learning Skills Tutor - $56.00/hr.
My teaching style is to have a set of problems made up for the students to observe as examples to help understand certain chapters. I will assign additional problems if needed and focus on the subject matter that is the hardest for the individual to understand. I have taken statistics and gotten an A in the course and still have all course materials to give a general overview of statistics and how to use SPSS. I am knowledgeable on the software and would be able to answer questions on statistics because of how well I did and how I used to help others who struggled with the class.

I have worked as a tutor in my college's writing center and as a teaching assistant in major course requirements. I will graduate at the end of this month with a Bachelor's of Arts degree in English, having completed more than 90 credit hours in literature studies and 18 credit hours of creative writing. I am a recipient of the Haussner Endowed Writing Award and have presented my work at the Sigma Tau Delta English Honor Society annual convention (2010 & 2011) and my college's Student Research Day. I not only have studied writing and literature and taught it, but I love it. I greatly enjoy reading and writing and like to impart that love on my students. Because students learn in different ways, a teacher must understand, appreciate, and adapt various teaching styles. Learning cannot become synonymous with boredom, and I strive to help keep my students engaged. I understand that all

Elizabeth M - Cattaraugus, NY 14719 (40.7 mi) - Basic Learning Skills Tutor - $52.00/hr.
I enjoy working with and teaching all levels of students and children. No two children learn in the same way. It is important to differentiate and identify the way that each child needs to be taught and engaged in the lesson. Lessons must be concrete and meaningful to a child. If things are taught to them in a way and on a level that they can grasp any child can be taught. It is important to me that each child be given an opportunity to learn. It is nice to be remembered as the teacher that changed the way a child feels about school and learning from a negative to a positive experience. I have extensive experience working with dually diagnosed individuals. The students I taught not only had difficulty learning but also exhibited some emotional and mental difficulties. I work well with students both individually and in group lessons. My special education experience has provided me
