Communications Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Pine City, NY

I love to work with children of all ages. It is the most rewarding job, watching the children grow and learn. I love being part of the learning process and the way children get so excited when they learn a new skill or master one they have been trying hard to achieve. I believe that all children learn differently and as a teacher it is important to find what works best for the individual child. As a parent of two children ages 3 and 8 i have had first hand experience in tutoring and teaching. I have also worked at Head Start for 5 years. During this time I have gained an extensive amount of experience and knowledge of teaching basic math skills, reading, and Grammatical skills. I currently have graduated with three associate degree's and will be working towards my Bachelors in the fall of 2009. I have a great understanding for English and reading and believe that literacy is the most imp

For the past two years I have worked at Corning Incorporated teaching Scientist with English as a second language. In this role, I assessed individuals with presentation, writing, and spoken communication difficulties, identified skills in need of improvement and developed an educational plan to build these skills. As part of Corning's people development initiative, it was my role to coach departmental employees to develop a standardized format, understand report and presentation structure, and improve their grammatical writing skills. This included training individual writers and presenters on effective communication strategies by understanding their target audience to develop an effective message. I also have 17 years experience in communications, including print and broadcast media, web management, corporate presentations, Scientific Editing and Technical Writing. Familiar and ex

Coming from a large family and having a large family myself, I have always been around children of all ages and enjoyed working with kids to develop themselves and prepare them for a meaningful place in our society. I am very patient with children and will use different approaches to teach. I try very hard to install a love of learning and work hard to encourage a curiousity of any subject that interests them. I believe in a strong basis of arithmetic skills in younger grades. In the high school, I use real-world applications to develop problem-solving skills through the use of mathematics. I was let go from a local company earlier this year. I have decided to make a career change and my goal is to teach math at the high school level. I have a year of college to be certified. I'm a full student at CCC, and will take the Pedagogy requirements at Elmira College. I intend to tu

During the past four years, I have obtained a BS in Accounting with a Concentration in Fraud Examination and a Minor in Business Management. I have been employed full-time as the Business Manager of a private, not-for-profit Christian school, and as the Business Director of a student newspaper, The Voice. I have worked continuously in the educational setting with students, staff, and clients. With the vast array of individualized learning abilities, styles, and patterns I have come to be very successful in enabling others to understand such areas such as math, finance, and accounting. Education is my passion, for both myself and others. I strive to ensure each individual understands what it is they are trying to achieve; by encouraging the use of endless questions, imagining possible solutions, and ultimately rendering a decision that is clear and concise.

I have always been close to learning. Outside of my (Bachelors of Science, PMP, MBA, EMDT) I have attained, I have attended numerous courses under the umbrella of continuing education such as Using Voice as a Sales tool, Leadership and Communication and How to be an effective tutor. In my 12+ years as a software professional, I mentored a team of developers and educated them on business knowledge about the client, technology and enabled them to become self-sustaining programmers over a period of time. I also conducted training for my clients for new product features. I am currently a volunteer tutor at Tompkins Learning Partners with whom I also attended courses such as effective tutoring, lesson plans and citizenship training. My passion for education and learning translates very well to students/adults whom I educate on a subject. I am an empathetic person by nature and this allows me

As a lifelong student of the humanities and English, I believe that the best way to learn is by teaching and helping others. As a result, whenever and wherever I have been, whether in academia, work environments, or with friends and family, I have sought to apply what I know by teaching. I have many years of experience teaching others, especially in the areas of English (extremely talented writer), history (specializing in world history and the history of empires), social science (with a focus on psychology and sociology) and philosophy. I find no greater thrill in life than when, as a result of my teaching and assistance, the light comes on over the student's head. Beyond pay and self-achievement, this is the true joy for any teacher. One of the advantages of my background is the variety of people I have worked with. Regardless of different cultures, races, socioeconomic background

As an undergraduate, I spent nearly three years assisting groups of students with how to learn content for the historically difficult courses of College Chemistry I and II. I have my BS in Nuclear Medicine Technology, which permitted me to learn and acquire a great understanding in multiple areas. These areas include biology, anatomy, physiology, chemistry, algebra, statistics, and beginning and intermediate levels of Spanish . In February 2011, I will be finished my MBA in Healthcare Management, which has broadened my knowledge in business courses, such as economics, accounting, marketing and finance. Throughout my education, I have mastered grammatical skills with the many research papers, essays, and lab reports that I have written. I would be happy to assist students with any courses necessary, as I am confident I can help them learn. I possess strong interpersonal skills which would

Teaching is the business of taking a student from one place to another. I begin with an individual assessment that takes account of the student’s perception of the problem and the academic goals he/she needs to meet. Then, having determined what it is reasonable to accomplish, I work through repetitive assignments and increasingly complex examples to raise the student’s standard of satisfaction and equip him/her with the critical skills necessary to recognize where his work succeeds and where it does not. My approach is interactive and designed to satisfy the student’s aspiration for independent achievement and confident self-assessment. Writing has been the passion of my life: I love words, doing things with words, making words work, a capability I can readily transmit to others. I am extremely well read, a published writer, with a ready recall of literary texts to illustrate effectiv
