Certified Teacher with a variety of experiences.

I have been teaching and tutoring for many years. I have tutoring experience for students in grades 1,2,3,and 5. I have teaching experience in Special Education and Elementary Education in grades K,1,2,4, and 5. I began my career as a teacher's assistant. I taught second grade for 2 years. I currently teach 5th grade. My student teaching was completed at all grade levels with a concentration in k-2 and 4-5.
My teaching style depends on the student I am working with. Teaching is about working with the student in the way that works best for them. I hold my students to high expectations that I know they are capable of reaching. I think it is important for students to identify their goals to help them determine their educational path.

A Little Bit About Me...

Before having children I worked as an teacher's aide at the local pre-school, working with 3-5 year-olds. After that I became a teacher's aid for the local middle school, working with children that were not allowed to go to regular classes due to their behavior. My main job was to show them how to write essays, reports, papers, etc. I also worked with their families as well and I loved it.
Working with children of all ages has taught me just how important education is. Reading and writing is especially important and they will need it in their everyday life. Every child deserves a good education and nothing would make me happier than to provide that to them. I am a caring person, always putting myself last. I am hardworking and patient.When working with others, children or co-workers, I put my focus on them especially when they need me. I always do my best and will not stop or give ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I have a passion to inspire and motivate students and help them grow into well-rounded, successful, confident individuals. I’ve had the opportunity to teach a diverse group of students, students with learning disabilities, students on grade level, and students who were gifted, all of which varied in socio-economic backgrounds. I have been skillful at designing creative, stimulating lessons. I engage their minds by incorporating a variety of differentiated lessons, manipulatives, and cooperative learning activities. I have become proficient at designing imaginative and stimulating lessons, which accommodate multiple intelligences, problem solving, a hands-on approach to learning and keeping students interested and focused.
I have been a 1st grade public education teacher for the past 9 years and I have been moved to 4th grade for this upcoming year. I have a bachelor’s degree in ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I enjoy tutoring enough to do it for free, which I have done for my friends from time to time. I’m a friendly laid back person who loves to learn and help others learn, particularly in a one on one setting. I’m quite good at breaking a subject down into an understandable step by step process and making sure they not only know the answers, but how and why they got the answers. I’m good with kids and often would rather be with them instead of adults.
Tutoring is one of my best skills, its just something I do well. I’ve tutored k-12 for Amsterdam, Gloversville and Johnstown in almost any subject, I have a strong math background particularly in algebra. I’m a good writer and do some freelance writing online at times. I have some experience with computer applications such as Photoshop, MS Publisher and PowerPoint. My BA. degree is in economics with a minor in business, I’ve completed so ... read more

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. I have tutored students who truly abhored reading but when we read about New York City and took them to the places of interest we studied and it truly got them excited about the next book. My methods are varied but consistent. I teach outdoors weather permitting on field trips and with themes to keep the child interested and wanting to read and learn.
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 am a people person, first and foremost. I enjoy getting to know families and children, and working together to create a learning environment that helps each student learn at his or her own pace. I like to look at challenges from many different angles, and I seek solutions as pieces to a puzzle. Enthusiasm and energy are two of my best points, but I can easily tailor my style to the atmosphere as needed. I believe that the tutor guides, but the child does the growing.
My area of expertise and greatest joy have always been reading and writing, from childhood on. My dual degree is in magazine journalism and linguistics. These skills have enabled me to work in the New York City publishing industry in a variety of editorial positions. Here in the capital district, my favorite job has been project manager at a language services provider, where I could use my French and even my Norwegia ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I am cognizant of the many different learning styles of today's youth and endeavor to use each interactive opportunity to the fullest. Compassion and developing an understanding underlie my approach and I believe that students that know victory in any one arena can find it again in the academic world. I firmly believe that a path of service is a key to a greater self esteem, as I give of myself to help students reach their highest good, so often do we find it that students will pay it forward and teach what they most need to learn and learn that which they most need to teach. I love to teach and I aim to be the change I seek to see in the world.
As mentor & teacher I have been a 2 year NYSPHAA student athlete,peer leader,Sr T.I.P.S educator,tutor, and most recently NYS Certified Public & Academic Librarian. Awarded a 5 yr full scholarship to pursue my BS degree in Advertising fro ... read more

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 hop ... read more
