Believe in yourself, and you are half-way there!

I have a Bachelor of Science in Biology and a minor in Chemistry. I love being able to help students feel comfortable with the material they are studying. I have tutored numerous times throughout college, and would like to get back into tutoring students because I find it to be rewarding. As a student who went from living in Germany and being taught that there are many ways of getting the right answer, to moving to America where everything is taught in one way, I have learned to incorporate my tutoring skills to the need of each individual student. I try to figure out what works best for every individual and help them focus on their strength and improve their weaknesses.
My teaching style depends on the student. I am comfortable with trying different study methods in order to figure out why my student is having trouble with a particular subject.

I have 28 years of teaching experience during which time I taught students from kindergarten to the 11th grade. I have always believed that every child can and should learn. My motto is Education is not the end but the means to an end.Furthermore, I believe in upward mobility not only for myself but for everyone.

A Little Bit About Me...

Throughout college and high school, I have always had the ability and desire to succeed. My GPA in high school was above a 4.0 due to the extensive Advanced Placement courses. I consider my area of expertise to be in math, including all sequential high school math courses, through calculus. I received a 740 on the Math section of the SAT. I have since obtained an BA in Humanities, in which I learned about the importance of diversifying ones education in order to become a more rounded individual. I studied english, art history, and 20th Century World History, and also minored in Business. After which, I got my MBA in finance from Saint Johns University. I am extremely diligent and hardworking.
Patience. I would have to say, I would have to learn the needs of the student, what they already know and don't know, and use what they know to help them understand what they don't k ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

As a member of the Fellows in Teaching program at Columbia University's Teachers College, I was exposed to some of the most renowned educators in the field and had the opportunity to engage in real world experience. I tutored students in a one-on-one setting and taught in a summer enrichment program. I was the Program Director at the Teachers College Writing Project. After earning my Masters Degree, I began teaching in the Freeport Public School District. I taught all levels, from Behavior Modification to Honors English, and learned to adapt my teaching methods to best meet the needs of each individual student. For the past 20 years, I have taught SAT prep and tutor students on all levels from kindergarten through college.
One of the things I take pride in is my ability to adapt to the many different learning styles of students. I believe strongly in educating the whole child and ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

As a college graduate, I was very much driven to achieve a high level of excellence in education. I have a bachelor degree in Management and an MBA in Finance, which has enabled me to gain an understanding in many areas of math. In addition, I have learned extensive grammatical skills due to writing research papers and presentations to corporate CEO's. As a member of corporate America I have seen how lack of math skills can hinder someone's career.
I enjoy teaching and working with children. I believe children learn in different ways. It is incumbent on the teacher to mold his/her skills to the child's natural way of learning. I am available to help your child find academic success. My goal is to provide the best education possible. I am a firm believer in teaching through discovery where the child finds the answer. I believe all children can meet their potential if they are giv ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I would describe my teaching style as patient, caring, and creative. My goal is to make sure my students feel comfortable and relaxed enough to absorb the information we are working on. I believe that all children have the capacity to learn if they are guided by the right educator. My goal is to help my students learn enough so they eventually can work independently. I find that my students really enjoy my style of teaching, and feel that I am always available for them. They are relaxed with me and feel comfortable enough to let their guard down and be open to learning. One of the greatest joys I have is teaching a child to learn. Learning can be fun and I try to let them see that!
I have been a substitute teacher in the Commack School District for over ten years. I love helping my students reach their goals and feel so gratified in doing so. It gives me great ple ... read more

I have experience teaching in a group setting and one-on-one. I am very comfortable presenting and have done so both in a training and non-training environment. My minor in communications was mostly presentations, and therefore I am very comfortable speaking in front of a group of people. I try to be as interactive as possible. I believe that hands-on experience is the best way to learn an application.
I have extensive experience training students on computer applications. My first experience was in 1993 while attending college up in Albany. I trained users on MS Office after they converted from DOS based applications to Windows based applications. I also consulted in the user room at SUNY Albany. Over the years I have trained professionals on HR Systems applications, and also have trained some professionals on Word, Excel, and PowerPoint applications.

I am a young engineer and Air Force officer highly motivated by the prospect of seeing others succeed. I have a B.S. in Industrial and Management Engineering which has given me ample experience in mathematics, most notably statistics, and the sciences. I have participated in a number of research projects where I have been given the opportunity to use what I’ve learned in practical applications. In addition to math and science, I am experienced in report writing and have excellent grammatical skills. I have two years experience tutoring older students math-related classes, and eight years experience tutoring children as young as eight in the violin and viola, both of which I am proficient in.
Math and science did not always come easy to me as a student, so I know how frustrating it can be for someone to struggle in school. As a tutor, I work hard to give my students the confide ... read more

I went from the Boston Public Schools to Commonwealth School and then Wellesley College, and would have been lost, early on, without help from tutors. I majored in English and Russian and work with several communities for whom English is not their first language. I am also a freelance writer and editor and I help my children's friends with their college essays. I work as a substitute teacher with all levels and grades and teach everything but Science and Gym.
I am patient and approachable but insist on the value of completing assignments even if the student "hates" them. I am good at explaining how this will be important later, which turns around reluctant learners. I believe in explaining, showing, modelling, and then stepping back while the student tries, explains, and determines where the mistakes come up. I value resiliance, and bask in the joy of competence achieved through ef ... read more

As a teacher I believe it is important to communicate high expectations for the success of all students, regardless of age, race or socio-economic background. I believe all students can succeed. It is often a challenge to ensure that the classroom climate and curriculum is supportive and responsive to all students. No matter what the subject, students should be provided with an academically challenging curriculum that includes attention to the development of higher level cognitive skills. I encourage students to share attitudes, concerns and aspirations. If students have their own views challenged, it encourages the critical thinking and reflective judgment that will serve them well throughout life.

A Little Bit About Me...

My teaching style is a combination of serious, in-depth theory and practical examples to demonstrate such theories, all with a hint of humor, followed by significant practice of the newly learned skills. I've been "teaching" people all of my business career. I always start with the underlying theory and immediately segue into a practical example of how the principles work. I think students want to learn, but need the information presented in a way that makes learning interesting, not boring. I have that ability. I'm able to integrate relevant practical examples because I have a very broad range of experience, having been an entrepreneur and turnaround management consultant for over 40 years.

After I left corporate America to further my education, I began to realize how much I enjoy academia. During my undergraduate work at S.U.N.Y. - Binghamton in New York, as a Teaching Assistant, I taught a study group in Biomedical Ethics. I have most recently been a business instructor at a university in Tianjin, China, where I taught Management, Finance, Operations & Marketing. During law school I excelled in the understanding of Business Law, Constitutional Law and Trusts & Estates Law. Other areas of interest are Ethics, English and preparation for the NASD Series 7 examination.
First, I believe a successful teacher allows the student to emerge in their individual creativity while grooming the student to play a significant role in a team environment. Second, a teacher must allow for mistakes to be made during the learning process as they are often quite instructive. Third, the ... read more
