My comments on tutoring Guitar : I have played over 200 gigs with a dozen different bands as lead guitar player.

Friendly, non-threatening, clear and accomplishment-oriented.
Business executive looking to assist elementary and high school children with their studies. I am a voracious reader and a life-long learner. I like children, have had exposure to tutoring before, enjoyed it immensely, was very good at it (in the sense that the children enjoyed my friendly manner and enjoyed the learning experience) and would like to help children remedy deficiencies and perhaps even learn how to enjoy learning as much as I do.

The only way to get out of difficulty is to go through it.

My lessons are based on the specific needs of the particular students. Whatever it is a student wishes to accomplish, I am there to guide a path, whether it be strengthening particular techniques, learning a favorite song, understanding music theory, or simply learning how to play a new instrument. The enjoyment of the student is my main concern and their desire to play is dictated by the efficiency of their instructor in my belief (and of course the student's own drive and ambition to get better).
My name is Mike and I have been playing the electric bass for 10 years, guitar for 8, and upright bass for 3. I offer beginner to advanced lessons on any of those instruments. I first began giving bass guitar lessons at the age of 16 after playing for only 2 years and advancing at an accelerated pace. I am a professional and perform several times a month with many different ensembles and ... read more

Guitar is one of my top subjects! Experience of 45 years

I have been teaching spanish and guitar for over 40 years and I am very confident within my methods of teaching. I may not have a degree in spanish but with 55 years of experience with spanish I know what it takes to become successful within the language. You are capable of doing anything you put your mind to, and taking the time to understand spanish or guitar is definitely rewarding in so many levels. So if I am a vessel for you to become better with your goals, I will dedicate what I can to help. Also, if your tutoring is centered around homework helping with spanish and/or guitar and you would like to only be working on specific assignments, that is perfectly respectable and comprehension of the subject is what grades are based on so I am here to help.

My years of studying and tutoring have given me the patience and kindness to work with both my peers, mentors, and children. I have a free-flowing personality and I am not easily shaken. I look for challenges in my every day life and welcome new ideas and criticisms so that I can not only improve myself, but those around me. I do not believe that "some people can not learn," but I do believe that with proper, constructive methods of learning, all can learn and will grow to love learning. I wish for this to continue in all people for the rest of their lives.
I currently hold my MA in history. During my studies I have earned an in depth knowledge of research methods, rhetorical writing, and have become well versed in study methods. My writing skills are near flawlessness and I stress this important skill in my every day life. In addition, I am currently learning both Spanish a ... read more

My teaching style is firm and strong. I don't tolerate any nonsense in the classroom. I expect students to act like students. I give them respect and I expect respect in return. I have rules they must follow and when these are broken there are serious consequences. School is for learning, not playing. Playing is done on their own time, not mine.
I have been an ESL teacher for 12 years in various school settings. I believe the experiences I have had in the different schools have prepared me to deal with the different situations I have had to face. For example, There have been instances when I have had to teach special education students and this required a special kind of teaching technique. While at other times I have had to teach my ESl students, and my bilingual Spanish skills have come in quite handy. Also, when I was teaching mainstream classes and fights have broken ou ... read more

I've taught both piano and other school subjects as a one-to-one instructor in a sub-contractor fashion, for over 20 years, and I taught General Music in public school K-4, in 2002. As both an undergraduate and Graduate, analyzing and writing about 19th Century literature and poetry, Women's studies,Art and Music history, and comparative literature and music, I have developed analytical, critical and writing skills.

When I started working at Colchester High School in Vermont, I initially identified myself much more with the students than the teachers and staff. Back in high school, I went out of my way to rebel against the school. In Vermont I quickly learned that there is a big difference-- that as an adult now, I am on the "other side," but can use this closeness I feel with the adolescent mindset to help with the learning process for the kids. I believe that every child is capable of learning anything, it is just a matter of sparking the fire and desire to gain knowledge within them.
I graduated from McGill University in Montreal in 2001, with a BA in Geography and a minor in History. Since then I have had a very diverse experience, working in Vermont as a teacher's aide as well as in a land trust, and in Montreal managing a nightclub and booking bands and acts from Canada and the US.

I began mentoring students during my tenure at Regis High School, a private, full-scholarship-only high school in New York City at the age of 17. After attending Villanova University and Fordham University's Graduate School of Business Administration, I began tutoring part-time with Studypoint. I have tutored over 30 different students in nearly all academic areas, including SAT, ACT, ISEE, SSAT and Academic Programs for grades K-12. I am currently a law student at Pace Law School in White Plains, NY, and I would love to continue educating bright young minds.
I would consider my teaching style to be very organic and adaptable. I consider each student individually, and I evaluate what works best for that student in particular. I am trained in various forms of teaching, and I have a complete understanding of the various learning personalities and characteristics of students that I ha ... read more
