I enjoy teaching individuals as well as small groups, understanding each person has specific needs and study habits. My goal is to help you and your child find a study method that works and leads to an understanding of a subject. I strive to get to know you and your child and make a subject easy to understand by breaking down complex ideas and concepts to 'everyday terms'. I attempt to make a positive impact, offer encouragement and help in any way possible.

A Little Bit About Me...

My teaching style is to discovery how each child learns, whether it is visual, audio, movies, written, tactile, CD's, adaptive technology, and re-learning. I want my students to have success and become life-long learners while providing them with the tools that help them reach their potential. Learning is an experience that should be enjoyed and given praise, compassion, kindness, and consistency helps one learn and discover their academic success. I have made many differences in student's lives, as they have taught me learning experiences that I will never forget. I am expressive, funny, and love to teach.
Sine high school, I have worked with children in BOCES. However, I started college later in life, after children and marriage. I wanted to provide my children with an education that I couldn't afford since I knew nothing of grants in 1974. I started with my AA and did not s ... read more

I am a strong believer in Multiple Intelligences. I know that first I must learn who my students are and how they learn if I am to teach them successfully. I employ the Socratic method often possible, and keep lessons as student-centered as possible. I frequently make use of the students' interests and technology to engage them. Students thrive when they see the usefulness of what they are learning, and when techniques are adapted to their needs.
As a professional educator, I am dedicated to seeing all students succeed. I have earned two bachelor degrees, a BA in History and a BA in English, as well as New York State certification and my MAT Social Studies. I have tutored throughout my academic career, and continue to teach and tutor in a wide variety of subjects.

My style of teaching is predicated on the knowledge that each child is an individual learner. Identification of students needs makes teaching more interesting to both teacher and learner. I also like to have the child discover the importance of an education. Answer the need to know what's in it for me? Motivation!!!! After finding the motivator the rest is easy. Keep the lesson relative and fresh. I prefer an interactive environment where the child is immersed in learning. Tactile combined with book-learning. Read it, then experience it.

I was also the Math coordinator for grades 5-8. I have tutored college entrants having difficulty with essay writing. Most recently, I taught 5th Grade in a local cha ... read more

Practiced for years as an attorney for NYS. Semi-retired now. I have also been a tutor with the Literacy Volunteers of America (LVA) in Albany, NY. I met with a Korean graduate student at U. Albany and helped him learn English. I am also able to help in foreign language tutoring with German and French.
I was trained well by the Literacy volunteers of America. I believe that my style is to help the student with repetition, while still making learning fun, via conversation and connecting the importance of what is being learned to every day life.

After 5 years of teaching, my business career was always related to my education background. I have been a sales manager and trainer. I worked with ITT as an insurance training manager for 2 years.My sales career has been of a consultive, informational style. There is a great reward to seeing someone grasp the idea you are educating them to achieve. I have worked over the years with students on a personal basis, children of friends, relatives to enhance their learning experiences.
Upon graduation I began teaching in NY State. I taught one year at the junior high level with classes in american History and English. I moved to a larger school district and taught History and Economic at the Senior High school levels. I received tenure and taught 4 years leaving the education field to enter business.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have spent my whole adullt life tutoring, mentoring and being a role model to others by being involved as a coach for the local Pop Warner football team, as well as serving as a tutor to three middle school/high school students, in the subject of math, science and social studies. I have also served as a substitute teacher. My favorite subject areas are in American History, Government, and Science.
I do not believe in standardized testing. Each child has the capability of learning, but not all children have the ability to take tests, for whatever reason. I tend to "test" by playing games, such as Jeopardy, Who Wants To Be A Millionaire, etc...and have the questions be cumulative in nature, not just on the part that we are learning. This makes the kids have to learn and absorb the information, and I was told by some students that they like the way I do it. With football, it's ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I utlize diverse assessment techniques in order to achieve maximum learning by the students. I understand the importance of determining a child's intrinsic/extrinsic motivators. I believe that a teacher may indeed be the center toward which the students will gravitate. However, I perceive my role of teacher as one of guidance. I have adopted many evidence-based practices with respect to effective teaching. I have strong organizational skills. I believe that in establishing consistent guidelines at the outset and stating the importance of every activity, I will demonstrate to my students respect for their presence and time. It is my objective that each student will learn to respect themselves, others, and their environment.
I am an educator with a repertoire of abilities that I will continually seek to hone. At the core is my ability to create a safe and nurturing enviro ... read more

I started my career at Fairfield University as a Biology student and quickly learned that it was an exciting and very challenging field. I have learned a plethera of study skills, and enjoy helping others. While in school I was a volunteer basketball coach which involved teaching. I feel that through my life experiences and education I would make an outstanding tutor
I enjoy helping others achieve their goals. I am a very optimistic person and try to focus on peoples strengths. I am extremely patient and easy to get along with, and will do whatever it takes for my subject to have success. I have my own method for studying which I feel works, but may not work for everybody so I am willing to find out what works for an individual. I also feel that tutoring is a learning experience for both teacher and subject, and I look forward to the oppurtunity.

I love being able to teach someone something new. I love learning, but have always been a visual learner, so whether I'm teaching someone how to read, or simply helping them improve their reading skills, I introduce visual aids. I am patient, easy going and a great listener. When it comes to teaching/tutoring/mentoring, I have always been very hands on. I strive to create an environment where the pupil feels comfortable and he or she is excited to learn.
I graduated Cum Laude from Manhattan College with a double major in Psychology and Communications. In addition to studying for two majors, I was also a Division 1 athlete and held 2 jobs. Seeing as I was very busy with extracirricular activities, I believe that my graduating with honors was truly a testament to how hard I worked. Since college, I have worked in two jobs that have really tested my gramatical, reading, editing ... read more
