Tutoring for YOU with compassion and excellence

I have taught a variety of subjects, and I have worked individuals from elementary school through college. I am currently working with Rochester Educational Opportunity Center as a part time instructor. In addition to this, I teach as a volunteer math tutor to adults who are preparing to their GED and TABE exams.
I work with students on their level, and then assist students to build skills at the next level. I work to match my instructional style so that it corresponds to the student's learning style and comfort level. Moreover, it is important to relate new information to something that is familiar to the student; this is also how I help students to learn.

More About This Tutor...

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 achieve the best they can. I have been teaching kids as a substitute for many years and went back to school in my middle 30's to become a teacher. Unfortunately the availability of teaching positions in my area has prevented me from full time employment but I've kept myself busy subbing and working with young adults and those with disabilities further their educational needs.
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 d ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

As a graduate of Pfeiffer University in North Carolina, I have been blessed to work with students of all grade levels. I received my BA in Elementary Education grades K-6. Having a degree in elementary education has really helped me expand my knowledge in all subject areas. I have learned through my four years of education different materials, techniques and hands on experiences to help students retain information.
I have always loved working with children and helping them grow as a person. I am patient, passionate and enthusiastic when helping children. I actively engage each student through the use of manipulatives, technology and fun hands on learning activities to fit each student’s individual needs. I believe that each student has the potential to learn and I will strive to meet each student’s goals and needs.

More About This Tutor...

I am interested in tutoring because I love teaching regardless of the subject matter. I’ve been lucky enough to be given the opportunity to try several different content areas such as Special Education 7th grade Science in a Push-In model, ESOL, Home and Careers, Career and Financial Management as well as substitute teaching in many areas K-12, in addition to teaching technology in multiple districts. My background as a manufacturing engineer gives me a vantage point of what is required in the real world for success and survival in the working world. Even though teaching is my second career, it is truly what I love to do. Working one to one with students to help them find success in school, while enjoying learning, is my personal goal.
Once in a classroom I realized that I was meant to teach. I love working with students who are challenging and those who challenge me. I believe tha ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have a passion for teaching and the everyday rewards. Because I have worked in bilingual, private schools in a foreign country I have successfully learned to handle diversity. I have learned to appreciate the individuallity of each student and his or her needs in processing, learning and how they interpret the world. I use Bloom's Toxonomy and Gardner's Multiple Intelligence to build my lessons in a differentiated form to reach each student on his or her level. It is important for me to know each of my students so that I might be able to help them reach their learning goals and motivate them to take more responsibility for their own learning. In this way their progress is their own and that makes it more meaningful for them.
In my 28 years experience in the field of education I have taught all grades from pre-kinder through university in bilingual private schools in Mexico Ci ... read more

More About This Tutor...

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 elementary through high school in every subject (except Foreign Languages) for over ten years. I have also worked with entering BOCES LPN students on math review and raised many of their entry level grades twenty points. I have also been very successful tutoring children with behavior problems.
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 ... read more

Through the extensive teacher preparation program at SUNY Geneseo, I had a wide variety of experiences. As a member of Kappa Delta Pi, I worked with an ESOL student to tutor him in humanities. I also worked in the Access Opportunity Program area, in which I tutored students in English and math. I have continued to gain experience through volunteering with Turkish refugees in the Mt. Hope area in English, math, and science.
As a teacher, I take the time to get to know each student's strengths and individual personality first. I believe this creates a foundation of trust, mutual respect, and fosters the learning process. Building upon what I know about the student, I can help students grow and learn. I believe in surrounding children with experiences that they can draw upon.

A Little Bit About Me...

I love teaching and helping children and young adults grow educationally. I believe that all children have the capacity to learn, but it is through varied methods that make all the difference. I am very patient and help the child understand the material from a real-life perspective. Concepts/ideas come easy to me, it is through this gift that I intend to help others struggling to grasp the same concepts/ideas.
As a master's level graduate in Criminal Justice, I have a varied and extensive background in many subject areas. At the undergraduate level, I have a minor in Forensic Science which required me to take many science courses, including Chemistry and the like. I have taken both undergraduate and graduate level Statistics courses and excelled at both. My current position as an Analyst for a legal publishing company also gives the skills necessary to teach proper grammar and writ ... read more

The educators in VN were very tough. Call it tough love. While I learned a great deal, I always felt "abused" by the teachers (nuns). Many times during the school week, I came home with red markings on my face or hands. I take a softer approach. If you get a child excited, he/she will learn best! Human nature loves to play so if games can somehow be integrated into learning, voila! My nieces and nephews all asked their parents to have me teach them. Adult learners are no different. They too will respond appropriately if the lessons can be tied to their everyday experiences. Children and adult learners have one wish in common - a need to be in a safe and nurturing learning environment, where they can learn without being yelled at. That is what I will provide.

With a Masters Degree in Education, a Bachelors Degree in French, more then seven years of hands-on teaching experience, I have taught hundreds of students both as a classroom teacher and as a tutor. Through my use of technology with web pages, Powerpoint flashcards and cooperative learning, I have had tremendous success with my students surpassing the mastery levels of both the NYS Regents and the NYS Proficiency exams as well as 100% passing rates on both exams for numerous years. My studies abroad give me an insight into both the culture and language. Having studied four different languages including English, I have an extensive vocabulary and am expert at writing and editing essays and research papers.

Born as a Chinese national and I speak fluent Chinese Mandarin language and I studied Business in Accounting and graduated from SUNY Brockport in 1990 and my mathematical course I always get "A" on my grade (I even get 105 on my test score, believe it or not) and I still love math. Therefore I can tutoring not only business in Accounting and also Math or language in Chinese.
I enjoy teaching one on one more then in a group class setting and I do enjoy teaching individual more then in a group setting. I do wish to teach "Chinese" as a personal language when I retire in the future if we don't have SS since I am a baby boomer (hope this is not true)

A Little Bit About Me...

I have been fortunate to have a variety of experiences during my teaching career, 29 years total. As a reading teacher, special ed. teacher, and elementary teacher I have taught most subjects at all levels. During my my most recent experience work at the FingerLakesDDSO I prepared students for the GED as well as taught life skills to developmentally disabled students. I am most proud of my work as a reading teacher; I have always been able to teach students how to read if given the time to do so. The majority of my teac hing career has been as a reading teacher, much of it at the elementary level.
I believe that all children need to be motivated, first extrinsically and later intrinsically to maximize learning. I use the standard teaching style of modelling, guided practice, independent practice, and evaulation. This means that students pratice what they learn in the classroom ... read more
