Hearing Impaired is one of my top subjects! I recently graduated with honors from the National Technical Institute for the Deaf. I graduated with a BS in American Sign Language interpreting. Through 4 years of rigorous study, I learned American Sign Language, PSE, as well as Cued Speech. I have interacted with and interpreted for a multitude of Deaf and hard of hearing people. I have worked with deaf and hard of hearing children, as well as Deaf and hard of hearing adults. I have also worked with deaf and hard of hearing people with a variety of disabilities. I have taken several Deaf-taught classes on Deaf Culture, as well as classes on Deaf oppression.

When it comes to language, I believe that people tend to learn best by doing. I also believe wholeheartedly that successfully learning a language depends on your exposure to that language. Continuous exposure to any language can help language acquisition. For English, regardless of what specifically the student is struggling with, consistent reading and writing practice is key. With a manual language like ASL, practicing signing skills and receptive skills is invaluable. Finally, I believe that people learn better when their strengths are pointed out and highlighted rather than their weaknesses. Many students who struggle in school are caught in a perpetual cycle of perceived failures. Optimism, unwavering support, and excitement are key when working with any student.
I have always had a passion for learning. Part of my passion includes helping others learn, grow, and succe ... read more

I graduated Magna Cum Laude in 2007 from SUNY Brockport with an undergraduate degree in Elementary Education, English and Special Education. I have worked as a substitute teacher in all grade levels and in all subject areas. I have been accepted into a high degree Masters program but feel I need to have a job to justify the repayment(s) of additional student loans that would be needed to finish my MA. I have recently been a four county advocate for people with special needs as the Disabilities Program Navigator. I would still hold this position if funding had not run out. I have the abilities to work with any level of education.
I love to work with children of any age. I have been volunteering for over 15 years helping wherever and whenever I can to help make the lives of children more enriched. I have two boys of my own (age 10 and 14) and have been successful in helping them ... read more

I firmly believe teaching requires structure. In that regard, the learning process requires a sequences of steps. Firstly, the student must understand the problem to be solved or the skill to be acquired. Secondly, examples are required to show how to approach and solve a prolem. Lastly, overarching concepts can be introduced to unitfy that which is new with that which is already understood. This approach has succesfully trained and kept the interest of all individuals that I have mentored.
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.

I believe that every child is entitled to an education within a safe and nurturing environment, which is reflected in my own classrooms. I am passionate about teaching my students the skills and tools they need to one day pursue knowledge on their own. A teacher knows his/her students as individuals with their own set of experiences, needs, strengths and weaknesses and recognizes these needs, teaching in a manner that is conducive to the individual child’s learning style. I believe that I can accomplish this by designing differentiated lessons that incorporate my student’s skills and the various intelligences. I am applying for this position for many reasons. This learning can be assessed to evaluate student needs and understanding, as well as teacher effectiveness. It is important that in each classroom I am also learning by constantly reflecting and evaluating my methods. It is becaus ... read more

As a non-traditional, graduate of Nazareth of Rochester, it has become very clear why an excellent education is clearly the only way to achieve autonomy, which I believe is crucial to all. I earned my dual-certification and Bachelor's Degree in Regular Education and Special Education. Because my own son had learning disabilities, I earned my Master's in Reading. I have worked with the Rochester City School District for 8 years. This experience has given me the opportunity to be involved with very diverse learning styles and abilities.
The following is my personal philosophy of education: I believe that all children have the to ability to learn. A student's curriculum should be integrated with multiple-intelligences in mind. It is crucial for students to be able to make personal connections in their learning. Good teaching means engaging students in meaningul dialogue, text and ... read more

Working with children is my dream job. I am a firm believer in "no child left behind." I have taught many students with special needs, and I am a compassionate and patient teacher. I am also very persistent in regards to my students completing their work, as their education is very important to me. I like to have a good working relationship with my students, and I think humor is an important element to add to my lessons. Making a difference in a child's life is vital, and I have accomplished this by helping high school students complete their graduation requirements, and by aiding children in catching up with their school work and earning passing grades.

I am a recent graduate of Nazareth College and I am currently going there for my masters. I earned a bachelor’s degree in Inclusive Education and Biology. This gave me the opportunity to earn certification through grades 1st through 9th along with special education. I have gained tutor experience through volunteer programs at Nazareth with mostly high school students.
I believe all children have the ability to succeed in their academic career. By being patient, upbeat, and interested in their topic of study, children will not have a problem taking risks in their learning. Science is learned through exploration. I believe a hands-on activity is the best approach to learning any subject.

More About This Tutor...

From my experience I know that students learn in many different ways. As a teacher and a tutor I find out how each child learns. I then develop interesting lessons that meet each child's specific needs. It is important that the children are actively involved in their own learning process. I like to make lessons hands on and thought provoking.
I received my Bachelor's Degree from Houghton College and my Master's Degree from SUNY Brockport. I have taught in an Elementary School for 9 years. I taught second grade for four years and kindergarten for the last five. I have also tutored on and off for the past four years. I also attend 30 hours of professional development every year.
