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 that I ca

The great joy for me in teaching literature and composition is sharing strategies for powerful communication to students who are blocked. Although I am inspired and passionate about English, I enjoy demystifying it and revealing how skills in other areas not only apply but can be key. Whether helping readers gain access to poetry or sharing methods to help organize thoughts or research for an essay, I enjoy helping students identify and craft their own insights into effective and powerful messages. As a Magna Cum Laude graduate, my ten years of professional teaching experience as a lead teacher of secondary English is interspersed with a variety of other relevant experience. In addition to teaching literature, composition and grammar, I have also tutored professionally for Kaplan as part of the federally mandated No Child Left Behind program and for other private tutoring services in M

I have had a love of teaching since I was a young child. I have always wanted to be the teacher as we played school. My teaching style is one as a facilitator. I believe in role modeling and coaching/guiding students in developing and applying skills and knowledge. I emphasize a student-learning environment. My focus is on students’ needs and goals and the willingness to explore options and alternative courses of action. My teaching methods include asking questions, exploring options, suggesting alternatives and encouraging students to develop criteria to make informed choices. I believe that students learn best when they actively engage in the content and take responsibility for their learning.

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 achiev

I love teaching and working with all children. I believe all children can learn, but each in different ways. I am available to help your child find academic success. I am patient, easy going, and considerate. My goal is to provide the best education possible. I am a firm believer in teaching through discovery and in providing a constructivist approach to learning. I believe all children can meet their potential if they are given the appropriate surroundings and learning experiences. A few good educators can make a world of difference in a child's education. I strive to make a difference in all of my students' lives. I have a passion to help students to achieve academic success. Being a educator, I was very much driven to achieve a high level of excellence in education.

As all of us are unique human beings, we have unique learning styles and learn best when we are using these styles to acquire and use information. I am continually amazed at the progress each student can make when encouraged to use the skills he possesses. As a teacher, I try to illustrate the principles I teach: respect for self and others, patience, a sense of humor, and academic rigor. As a teacher of English, I believe that everyone has a story to tell and telling these stories brings great joy to both the writer and the reader. My students have demonstrated, -- and told me, -- that I am correct about this. I have taught students in grades 1--5 as a substitute teacher in the Rochester, NY public school system and full time as a teacher of 9th and 10th grade English (one semester) and 7th grade Science (one semester) in a private school. In addition, I have developed curriculum and in

Though I recently graduated with a BS in Childhood and Special Education, I have many years of experience as a teacher/trainer. I currently substitute teach Per Diem in several local districts for K-12 students. I also have gained classroom teaching experience through student teaching and field work. Prior to that, I tutored several fellow students at Monroe Community College, and volunteered as a tutor/mentor for Rochester City School District High School students, through the Liberty Partnership Program at MCC. In many of my previous positions, I was responsible for training employees. My communication skills are excellent, and I am strongest in the area of English Language Arts, but am comfortable with most Elementary level subjects. With extensive (and recent) training in education, especially with regard to providing for the needs of diverse learners, I am prepared to work with ea

Throughout my academic career, I have been motivated to achieve at a high level, regardless of the discipline I was studying. This motivation has allowed me to obtain two bachelor degrees, a BS in Business Administration and a BA in Psychology. My specialization in two distinct areas has allowed me to adapt to a variety of research and writing methods. Starting at an early age, I was able to gain experience teaching skills to others as a member of the Boy Scouts of America and eventually achieved the rank of Eagle Scout. I have also mentored adolescents in a variety of areas while working as a youth counselor. I have always aspired to adapt my teaching techniques to each student on an individual basis. I have been successful in doing so by utilizing a vast array of methodologies to instruct and provide examples which are relevant to each unique student. I believe there is no greate

I love teaching teenagers and adults. My students consider me to be organized, upbeat, humorous, and creative. Learning tough subjects does not have to be a grind or scary. My students can achieve lots of small victories at every session and I am ready with positive and constructive feedback. I enjoy getting to know each student and assessing his/her learning style, so that together, we can develop achievable goals and, hopefully have some fun amidst the hard work.I offer a great guarantee: there is a 100% chance that a student's skills--and even attitude--will improve after we work together! My career has been in nonprofit and small business management, and I have also enjoyed opportunities in teaching and training in many settings. At two Rochester NY colleges, I have been an adjunct instructor and tutor in business writing, public speaking, literature, and more. In my consulting busin

Since learning is such an individual endeavor, I believe that flexibility is one of the most important ingredients for good teaching. A good teacher (or tutor) is responsive to the student's learning style, and indeed, to the student's mood during any given learning session. I feel that I am attuned to the cues that most students give and am able to respond with an a approach that would be most effective. If the student is a visual learner, we will work with that in mind. If he or she learns better by being actively involved, then I take on the role of a coach. Obviously, one size does not fit all! I have had a variety of experiences that have prepared me to tutor students at the elementary, middle school and high school level. I have taught Sunday School for several years. I also was on a team that created a training system at Eastman Kodak and then trained production workers. I

I am a 1983 graduate of Hobart College in upstate New York. I have a B.A. in Psychology and have worked as a Substance Abuse Primary Therapist in the Rochester, N.Y. area from 1991 until 2000. Since 2000, I have worked as a subcontract Teacher in the Rochester City School District. My experience in the field of Chemical Dependency and counseling prepared me for the challenges I encountered as a teacher in some of the most depressed areas of the City of Rochester. I have learned how to motivate, encourage, mentor and connect with children from many unique backgrounds and life experiences. I enjoy watching children realize that they are smart and have gifts. I encourage and emotionally support my subjects when teaching. Teaching is just as much about gaining the trust and confidence of your student as it is imparting information .
