I am currently a practicing attorney in Albany, New York, and I plan to go back to school to obtain my Ph.D in Public Administration and Policy. In addition to my JD, I also possess a BA in both Political Science and Spanish. During the last nine years, I have tutored students in a number of subjects, including government, social studies, Spanish, English, and research and writing. Also, I have been a violinist for the past 20 years, and would be more than happy to provide lessons. Lastly, I am also currently a coach of a under-19 youth rugby team in the capital region. I thoroughly enjoy teaching, and I like to make it a fun and enjoyable experience. I am a patient and easy going person, and I am able to adapt well to an individual's particular style of learning.

I would like to think that I am exciting and fun. I know what it's like to want to impress your teachers esspecially when it comes to music so I don't like to put to much pressure on my pupils. I want them to be able to learn at there pwn pace but also know that I'm here for a reason and that I expect an equal amount of effort from them as well. I did my associate degree studies in Classical performance. When I completed my undergraduate B.A. I had more of a focus study on Jazz composition. I was a high school vocal music director 7-12 for one year right after I graduated in 2007 to 2008. I have since then been teaching a wide variety of music classes in everything from elementary to upper level theory and aural skills. I have been teaching private lessons on my free time for about 4 years now and I currently have 15 students of my own. I am a young enthusiastic teacher who feels that

Upon graduating from Northwestern College, I felt compelled to do more than make a difference as an educator; I wanted to be the difference for students I'd work with! I have a Bachelor's degree in education, and am certified by New York State as a Teacher Assistant. I have tutored students in Social Studies and English(literature, particularly), and have given bass lessons to students, both upright and electric bass. Teaching is, for me, both a passion and a process; passion, in that I invest myself totally into providing the learner a quality educational experience, and process, as I stress to them that learning has no shelf-life, no "use by"date.I see my role as that of an enabler, helping your child to have the greatest possible success. One thing I've told every student I've worked with is,"I won't quit on you, and I won't let you quit on yourself".I feel that accountability is a ke

I have worked with Middle School age youth for almost a decade. I am Site Coordinator at an after school program & run a science focused club there. I also occasionally help the students who have been removed from our Homework Room with a number of subjects. I enjoy imparting my knowledge to my students via a variety of hands on learning activities and have always been a keen math, science and language arts student myself. Throughout school, I also played every woodwind instrument except the Oboe. While in college, I took every Agricultural Education class offered, as it is my intended area of post graduate study, and gained a grasp of educational psychology, classroom management and lesson planning. I am a strong believer in mastering a topic as opposed to spitting out the correct response. I also believe in finding one’s main learning style and teaching to it, not that of the masses. T
