Outgoing certified teacher elementary/special education B-6

My name is Robin and I have excellent teaching strategies for learning. I focus in on academic success, especially for struggeling learners. I start with the basics in all subject areas and make sure basic concepts are learned first then advance on to higher level thinking techniques to broaden my students overall knowledge in the core area they are studying. I have been teaching and tutoring for over 3 years now. I have done both resource base instruction and consult teaching with other teachers. Resource instuction is instruction done in small groups that works on developing skills, teaching strategies for stuggeling learners, and advancing already learned skills. Consult teaching in done during whole group instruction and two teachers team up to help advance stuggeling learners or learners with disabilities. I enjoy my work and love to see the results of the students I work wit ... read more

As a future medical school student, I worked very hard throughout my undergraduate career and was able to obtain a B.S. in both Cellular Neuroscience and Psychology in only 3.5 years. I have participated in Biomedical research both at Allegheny College (neurodegeneration in Drosophila melanogaster) as well as at the University of Pittsburgh (aggregation kinetics of the huntingtin protein). Furthermore, I volunteered at Big Brothers and Big Sisters of Crawford County as a Big Brother. Through the mentoring program as well as the Allegheny College football team, I gained experience tutoring other players as well as helped my "little brothers" with their homework whenever necessary.
From working with various types of students, I have learned that not everyone can learn material in the same manner. I myself am able to relearn and understand material very quickly and effectively. It ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

My teaching style is one that allows the students to ask any pertinent question about the subject at hand. By allowing the students to do this, it allows me to see what might be giving them a hard time with the learning. Thus, I would be able to ask pertinent questions, that will allow me to show different ways around the troublesome areas, while giving the students a new way to learn the necessary material.
When working towards my Bachelor's I was able to achieve a dual BS in Accounting and Business Management. After working a few years, I decided to go into teaching. While doing this, I was able to assimilate my real life working experience, into the classroom. I have since obtained a second certification in Special Education. This was after obtaining my Master's in 2007. I believe the combination of these teaching areas, would allow me to help those students, who need dif ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I currently teach college composition and literature interpretation. I also tutor English composition at a community college. I homeschooled my own children, and I recently recieved my NYS certification to teach English Language Arts at the secondary level. I have a BA in psychology and classics and an MA in psychology.
I love composition and literature, and I am especially drawn to students at the developmental level. I am good at accentuating the positive in all students, in helping them find their voice and appreciate the voices and styles of other writers. From homeschooling my own children, I learned to adapt material to individual learning styles. I am passionate about reading and writing at any level and I strive to pass that on to my students.

My teaching philosophy centers first, and foremost, on the task at hand: educating every student I service. It appears that for the sake of the school’s overall achievement level on state tests, students that require critical and extensive attention are being ignored for lack of time. Because it is assumed that these students will not pass the test regardless of the amount of effort invested in them, very little is invested in them and they are left far behind. These students will not only fail the test, but will establish the concept that no cares one-way or the other. I believe every student has a talent for something. It may be difficult to discover what talent a child possesses, but this challenge is important and rewarding. As an educator, I believe we must show every child, regardless of scholastic aptitude, that their existence matters to society, and that they can positivel ... read more

During my past three years at St. John Fisher College I have been actively engaged in the chemistry department. I have been exposed to various teaching types, one being active learning within a group. This has allowed me to develop teaching skills by explaining my ideas on the subject to my group, while learning the material at the same time. Also, for the past two years I have been an individual tutor for students taking introduction to chemistry. During the tutoring sessions I would help with homework or further explain the material covered in class.
I believe that different teaching styles help different students. A method of both lecture and active learning can be effective for the widest range of students. This allows the students to get a brief introduction to the day’s material before they work in groups on questions about the material. I feel that student’s can learn ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Because students learn in different ways, a teacher must understand, appreciate, and adapt various teaching styles. Learning cannot become synonymous with boredom, and I strive to help keep my students engaged. I understand that all students have their strengths and weaknesses and I try to always enhance their strengths and teach them how to use them to their own advantage. I believe that an appreciation of the value of an education is the first step to success. As a teacher, I thrive with challenges and diversity and seek to be a role model and a friend to my students, rather than simply an authority figure.
I have worked as a tutor in my college's writing center and as a teaching assistant in major course requirements. I will graduate at the end of this month with a Bachelor's of Arts degree in English, having completed more than 90 credit hours in literature studies and 18 ... read more

My teaching style is to have a set of problems made up for the students to observe as examples to help understand certain chapters. I will assign additional problems if needed and focus on the subject matter that is the hardest for the individual to understand.
I have taken statistics and gotten an A in the course and still have all course materials to give a general overview of statistics and how to use SPSS. I am knowledgeable on the software and would be able to answer questions on statistics because of how well I did and how I used to help others who struggled with the class.
