A Little Bit About Me...

Experience in the study of British and American Literature, also have made a study of History in America and Britain as well during undergraduate coursework. During my Master's I studied British Literature and was a teaching assistant. During that time I spent two years teaching composition and argumentation at Bowling Green State University to cover college level essay writing which required both classroom and individual tutoring outside of class. Subjects for that course included a wide array of topics with a focus more on structure and the strength of the student's argument than the content or theme of the paper. I can handle any topic of essay writing as a result and will be able to bring out the core structural and grammatical needs for the paper.

Teaching young people and seeing them succeed is such a reward. Many students find the conventional school setting difficult and work with greater success in a one on one setting. Getting to know the student and his or her learning style along with some background enables a tutor to create an atmosphere where the student will be most successful. The student can feel comfortable asking questions, which is not always the case in a traditional classroom. My goal as a tutor is to have a student comfortable and successful!

I have twenty-one graduate hours in Reading and eleven graduate hours in Early Childhood Education. My previous work experience had me working with families where one adult was in need of a GED.

More About This Tutor...

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 ... read more

I enjoy earnest and humble students, learning with and from them. I feel uncomfortable not learning laterally as well as vertically, seeing that to be knowledgeable, one must not just memorize but ruminate on what was memorized, making as many lateral connections as expedient. I like to simply direct and expand a student's learning as opposed to an artifactual accomplishment; however, my premiere obligation is punctual achievement of task.
I am qualified to tutor writing, basic computer, reading, basic math, learning, biology, organic chemistry, genetics, geography, and various exams, all from college-level experiences. I had a scientific book in Barnes and Noble, ample graduate-level coursework in Education, experience as a High School teacher, and lived abroad. I have a B.S. in plant biotech from Cornell.

A Little Bit About Me...

As a graduate of one of the top state schools in New York, I have always believed in the importance of education. I have a BA in art studio, 2 years of biology/chemistry, and Calculus I&II, which has given me a well rounded education. I have also developed a higher level of writing skills through my research papers and laboratory write-ups. My latin classes have given me a better understanding of vocabulary and the derivatives of different languages from latin. The past year I have been studying chemical and physical aspects of my visual arts. I find ways to be diverse in the way I learn.
Teaching and working with children not only educates them but it educates myself in the process. I get to touch up on materials that the children are learning, as well as learn better ways to educate students. Patience is what I believe is the most important aspect of teaching. Children can become ... read more

As a graduate of a SUNY school I had the pleasure of studying with people from all walks of life. I earned a Bachelor in History which I find vital for the development of our modern world. My writing skills have been developing since my High School studies and it only prepared me for my college writing assignments. I worked in South Korea for one year teaching and tutoring student ranging from 5 years to 16 years old children. I was responsible for setting up a daily curriculum and controlling the classroom.
The past year in Korea has opened my eyes to the enjoyment I can receive from teaching. It made me realize how wonderful American schools are in their understanding and development for children. I hope to cater to all the learning styles that children need so that they learn the information to the best of their ability. My goal is to have all the children understand all ... read more

I obtained all of my degress while I was working full-time jobs. My teaching experience at Damon College and SUNY Buffalo was as a part time "teaching assistant". I was never able to give up full time work in order to teach full-time, as part-time salries fell short of what I needed to support my family. Now that I am "retired" I would like to share the significant knowledge and my world travel experiences to help students learn about our world and how we came to this place. Many people have told me that I am a natural and very interesting teacher. I love my subject and have so much to offer. I would really appreciate the opportunity to share my knowledge and enthusiasm for History with students of all ages.
Personable. I love to tell stories from history that illustrate the point I am trying to make. Date and names are only part of the lesson - the main thing is to al ... read more

I love opening up a child's mind to the love of the written word. The possibility of expressing one's private thoughts and experiences have the power to change lives for the better. I have always been patient and understanding with children. Some of my best memories as a child focus on that one teacher that went out of her way to see in me the potential , that I was unable to see in myself. I promise to do my best to ensure that your child feels the same way about one teacher making that deciding difference and bringing to light your child's potential.
During my tenure at Buffalo State College, I volunteered at the Equal Opportunity Program, where my main strength was utilized by actively tutoring students in the art of the english essay. I was able to tutor these students and advise them in the general format of the essay. We began by procurring a general introduction, or a s ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Through my teaching experience, I have learned the importance of the relationship between the community and maintaining a positive classroom environment. As a student teacher I have had experience keeping parents involved with classroom activities and I believe that parental involvement is an important factor in creating effective teaching and learning for all students. Currently I am student teaching at Buffalo Public School #11, Poplar Street Academy. I lead small groups in the afternoon and use Harcourt Intervention to provide enrichment for struggling readers. I have been successful in pulling two of the five students up to benchmark level.
I also developed a positive behavior management system that teaches students responsibility and accountability. My system has reinforced my philosophy of teaching; students learn and work better when a positive environment surrounds them.

My teaching style is centered around student activity. Students must be able to fully understand the objectives of the lesson and be able to construct the meaning of the lesson on their own. All steps should be modeled and structured for clarity.
I have graduated from Canisius College with a Master degree in Education. I am currently on track to have NYS initial certification by February. My student teaching was conducted at Hamburg Middle School and Lackawanna High School in 9th grade social studies and 7th grade American history. I have extensive experience in writing through my schooling and in my work experience in journalism, which required a high degree of literacy.

As a master's level graduate in Criminal Justice, I have a varied and extensive background in many subject areas. At the undergraduate level, I have a minor in Forensic Science which required me to take many science courses, including Chemistry and the like. I have taken both undergraduate and graduate level Statistics courses and excelled at both. My current position as an Analyst for a legal publishing company also gives the skills necessary to teach proper grammar and writing skills. Through this varied educational and work experience, I would be an asset in tutoring many different subject areas.

A Little Bit About Me...

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 different areas of help.
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 th ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I am a teacher with ten years experience and a passion for teaching. I have acquired both a master's and bachelor's degree from Buffalo State College in addition to studying abroad in England. I have been a teacher in the Gowanda school system for 9 years and have taught AP US History for 8 of those years. In addition, I have taught remedial programs at Erie Community College and have offered after school review sessions months prior to the AP US History exam.
My teaching methods are based on years of research. I am firm believer in using formative assessment and incorporating technology whenever possible. Focusing on the Thoughtful Ed approach to teaching of Dr. Harvey Silver, I try to address the varying learning styles of all students in the classroom.
