If you need to learn something, I can teach it!

I've tutored various classmates and students in lower level math classes while in college. I've assisted children while a counselor at a summer science camp. I was a Teaching Assistant for an introductory MIDI class in which I oversaw students progress during lab, taught them how to use the program, and assisted with any issues they may have during lab.
I attempt to teach various topics in a manner that is easiest to understand, with one on one tutoring, I can adapt my style and methods to the individual student to maximize they're understanding.

Chess is one of my top subjects!

1st 30 min lesson is FREE! Throughout my career and also my time in school, I have always been able to not only achieve success in various levels of mathematics, but also articulate to others through teaching and working through examples so that they can achieve similar success and have a clearer understanding of how to complete their work independently. I also have over 25 years of chess experience, including both playing and teaching. I was taught at the high school level by someone who has coached many individuals and teams to various local, state and national championship victories. I also run an annual Sudoku seminar locally, where I walk through examples of puzzles with full crowd participation, and discuss tips and tricks to get you through more challenging puzzles.
Teaching through example. I will not do your work for you, but rather show you the roadmap to success an ... read more

I tutored students ranging from grade three to college freshmen in mathematics. I also occasionally tutor in subjects such as chemistry, physics and foreign languages.

I would have to say that my teaching style is flexibility. I believe that it is necessary to gauge your students as a group and individually before deciding on which teaching methods would be most effective. I believe that naturalistic teaching is important. I also believe in a form of discrete trial training. It takes some of the basics from Discrete Trial and adapts them to fit the needs of the students that are struggling with certain subjects. Research has proven that all students learn differently and lessons cannot be taught primarily through auditory learning. A teacher especially one in the younger grades must engage in auditory, visual, tactile, kinestics and other learning methods.
I worked as an in home private ABA therapist for two separate families, each with a child with autism. I worked individually with both children approximately 8-12 hours per week for over a y ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I am a highly dedicated and enthusiastic educator who believes that all children can learn. It is up to the teacher to assess and implement the best method, or variety of methods of instruction for each student. In order to successfully cultivate the motivation to learn or succeed, the teacher must develop a personal rapport by demonstrating respect and compassion for each student. A child must believe in him/herself first, then he/she will believe he/she can learn! It is my pleasure to regularly provide the encouragement and positive reinforcement needed to build the confidence to succeed.
My experience as a teacher has primarily been with students who are struggling with either some form of learning or social/emotional disability. Most of these students have been a challenge, a joy, and a reward to have taught. I have found that most students want to learn and to succeed in sch ... read more

I graduated Boston College with a B.S. in Biology and a minor in liberal arts;susequentally I earned a D.D.S. Degree fron NYU. I have taught students in Math and Science courses as well as students in various levels of high school and college in SAT prep,ACT prep. My education has been extensive mostly because of the Jesuit education which instilled in me a life-long interest in helping all students to reach their innate potential.
I am a teacher who believes that a discovery technique of education has proved to me that all students can learn and master what they themselves view as their true and real career choices. I have a proven track record and know what I can and can not do for each of my students. I would like to work with people of all cultures in this world of mutiticulural education.

My style is open to discussion. I like to ask questions to the student about the knowledge they have and based on that, apply my knowledge to build a strong base to be used as a core to solve more problems. I live the one on one interaction but also love the group discussion. I used to tutor an entire classroom during summer for 6 hours straight.
I started around 2005 tutoring for the departments of chemistry and math in Queensborough Community College, from the basic levels in organic chemistry 2 and calculus. I earned my Associate degree in science from Queensborough Community College and finished my Bachelor Degree in Stonybrook University. At Stonybrook University also tutor chemistry and math. During the summer 2006, I had the entire department of chemistry tutoring under my guide. My experience comes from teaching my own classes and from interacting with my students.

A Little Bit About Me...

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 and French in hopes of improving my chances of entering a doctoral program. During my MA work I privately tutored students in History, English Literature, and Spanish.
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 th ... read more

I have always enjoyed working with children and understanding their perceptions of the given subject matter. This often results in a personal, in-depth level of conversation normally not available to most students. It has only been about five years since I was a high school student myself, and I find that it is generally very easy for me to communicate with students on a personal level, as a friend rather than from a distance as only a hired instructor. Still, I handle tutoring lessons appropriately, am always very considerate of a parent's requests and am still certain to push a student to make sure he or she makes the grade rather than to simply entertain them for an hour or two without preparing them for their academic responsibilities.
Having had pursued a BA in English, not only did I focus on the course material within each class, but even more importantly, I managed to great ... 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

More About This Tutor...

After earning my BA in English and raising a family, I returned to school to take graduate courses in Elementary Education at Dowling College in Oakdale, New York. I completed my student teaching at Stagecoach Elementary School, but decided to accept a job as a Senior Educator at The Long Island Museum of Art, History and Carriages where I wrote and taught art and literacy programs for all ages. I also worked for years as an English tutor for St. James Tutoring agency, which served homebound elementary and high school students at the request of various school districts in Suffolk County.
I believe that successful teaching begins with engaging the student. If students are given what I call a "hook" something on which to secure new information, then learning can take place. This can be simply piquing the student's interest, building on past knowledge, posing a question or mystery ... read more
