Jesse F - Gloversville, NY 12078 (6.6 mi) - Entrance Exams Tutor - $51.00/hr.
Tutoring should be a tool used to complement traditional education. When tutoring there is little help in providing information to the student the same way that the teacher presents it. Tutors may also fall into the trap of simply giving the student the answers. For these reasons I prefer an holistic approach to tutoring. Every student is different and they all have different ways of understanding the material. As I am tutoring I keep in mind that I am also learning, keeping an open mind about the way a students is learning helps me to determine the best method of teaching the subject at hand. I spent nine semester at FMCC in the TRiO Student Support Services program. I began as a part time tutor and after one semester the program director saw it prudent to keep me on. During my time with the program I helped to establish several tutoring programs, one at FM and another at Amsterdam High

Kathleen K - Schenectady, NY 12305 (18.8 mi) - Entrance Exams Tutor - $46.50/hr.
I've enjoyed working with students of all ages, background and grade level in coursework such as Math,Science,Computer and Engineering courses from seventh grade through undergraduate college. By teaching concepts rather than memorization skills that usually bore the student I work with each student and their own "easiest way" of learning to increase skills and self-confidence. I'm dedicated to each individual student and will work hard with each to improve their coursework through study habits, homework assignments and test preparation. I believe these valuable skills will open doors for each student throughout their lives. I am a graduate of elecrical engineering and computer science with ABET accreditation. From early on in my studies I've enjoyed tutoring students of Mathematics,Computers,Technology,Science and Engineering courses. I've also conducted many science lab experiments an

Gabrielle R - Burnt Hills, NY 12302 (20.4 mi) - Entrance Exams Tutor - $47.50/hr.
As a mother of 16 yr old twins, I have always been a tutor in reading, english and literature. I got my degree in English/Art/Art Therapy/Literature as a result of my love for the written word and regarding books as our passport to the world around us near and far. I have learned the skills and applied them in research papers, essays and other areas where required in my schooling. I am also proficient in public speaking and presentations via visual aid as well as powerpoint. I have tutored students from 1999 to the present starting with my children and being part of a mentor program in college. I found both rewarding and absolutely love tutoring. I love tutoring and working with children to young adults. The internet provides a lot of information but the joy of going to the library to discover new worlds, knowledge or just for the fun of it is still a worthwhile venture.

AliciA H - Schenectady, NY 12309 (20.4 mi) - Entrance Exams Tutor - $44.00/hr.
I began teaching as a college sophomore at MIT. For 9 years, I taught primarily Multivariable Calculus, but also single-variable Calculus, Linear Algebra, and several writing courses. Since graduating, I have been involved in various volunteer tutoring efforts. My minors are in Math, German, and Writing.
I happen to be a black female, the first to earn bachelor's, master's and doctoral degrees in Mechanical Engineering at MIT. I am happy to work with anyone, but I might be a particularly meaningful match for a minority or female student. In addition to tutoring, I would hope to serve as a "can-do" example for someone who might not have dared to dream big enough. I believe in the "practice makes perfect" approach, especially when it comes to math, science, and language study. That said, I also believe that practice can be interesting, fun, encouraging and reinforcing. I would hope to h

The Teacher Education Certificate affords me with a well-rounded familiarity with curriculum for all primary grade level and techniques to best understand learning style and peak interest in learning. I critique my teaching techniques to fit the individual, learning from the student what best works for them. I take educational endeavor seriously, knowing games and fun are required to reach children, yet understanding, reading levels and test score are increasingly important for self-esteem and prosperity.

John H - Niskayuna, NY 12309 (22.6 mi) - Entrance Exams Tutor - $44.50/hr.

I spent 6 years as a nuclear trained electrician in the US Navy, 10 years in academia where I studied and taught psychology, biology, and communications, and the past 10 years in retail management. I took it upon myself to conduct impromptu training sessions in many different areas of study while in the Navy, and actively helped shipmates engaged in external study programs. I implemented a tutoring program for pre-med and pre-vet students and others while a member of Beta-Beta-Beta (the National Honor Society for Biology) at Southern Illinois University.

Christopher C - Worcester, NY 12197 (23.7 mi) - Entrance Exams Tutor - $48.00/hr.
I firmly believe that teaching and learning is inextricably tied to subjective factors, and that students learn best when the material is presented to them in a way that is both accessible and interesting. I believe that meaningful learning takes place when students are actively engaged in the material, through activities and experiences that immerse them directly in the concepts that they are expected to understand. I design learning experiences that are logical and meaningful to students, and encourage them to develop the self-regulation skills that will aid them far into their academic careers. I am trained in modern pedagogical techniques, and have experience applying these techniques with success. Through my own academic experience, I have a well-developed understanding of the skills and techniques necessary to achieve a high level of scholastic excellence. I am a trained educator,

Catherine S - Niskayuna, NY 12309 (24.2 mi) - Entrance Exams Tutor - $46.00/hr.
While I was an undergraduate, volunteering was very important to me. One of the places I volunteered was an after school program for children who live in Hamilton Hill. While I volunteered there I helped many of them with there homework as well as extra reading and writing to help improve those skills. I found that my psychology major as well as my education and english minors were very useful and helpful to help tutor in all subjects. I love working with children. I was involved in girl scouts from first grade all the way to 12th grade and in those years I learned a lot of leadership skills. I am very patient and want to provide education to anyone that needs it. When I was in school I often struggled with school work, so I learned many different techniques to learn how to learn.

Allyson B - Ballston Spa, NY 12020 (25.5 mi) - Entrance Exams Tutor - $47.50/hr.
Throughout the years, I have had many experiences in the field of education. I began my experience in the classroom as a student teacher at Syracuse University. My first assignment was a 12th grade classroom as a freshman in college. This was a very challenging, yet rewarding experience that taught me how to discipline and gain respect from my students.
In the remaining years at Syracuse University, I was placed in several other student teaching classrooms from middle school to high school. I also tutored college students in Writing, English, and Spanish for 2 years. I graduated with a sense of accomplishment for what I had achieved and provided for my students.
Professionally, I have worked as a high school english teacher, and as a curriculum developer in education publishing companies. This has also been rewarding because I have been given the freedom to help create what student
