Gloria A - Newport, NY 13416 (31.2 mi) - Writing Tutor - $44.50/hr.
I thoroughly enjoy teaching and believe that all students can be successful and learn. I consider it my responsibility to reach each and every student, to present material in a relevant manner, and to involve students in their own discovery and learning processes. I use a variety of techniques and methods, including activities, projects, and discussions to engage students in learning. One of my greatest strengths as a teacher is my positive rapport with students; I respect them as young learners, believe in them and their abilities, and genuinely enjoy working with them each day. I have found that they respond positively to that energy and enthusiasm and their successes reflect that. I have fifteen years of classroom teaching experience, including eight years of teaching Advanced Placement English. Additionally, I have served as a Reader for the Advanced Placement English Language an

Samuel S - Forestport, NY 13338 (31.8 mi) - Writing Tutor - $44.00/hr.
Whenever I have been recruited to help someone in the past I have been a firm beleiver in less is more. Though it is important for the person to understand what he/she is reading or writing it is important to shadow their work instead of smothering them. I always feel for both myself and others that learning comes from doing and trying by ones self, and asking for help only when needed. Of course this style is useless if the explanations and guidance that go with it are not clear and fascilitate the process for the student. Still fresh out of college I have been looking for an area to exercise my expertise in writing and my knowledge of literature. Although I have no formal experience in a teaching position I do believe an opportunity in tudoring would be great experience for me and beneficial to those I can help. And I cannot say I have official experience tudoring students I aided

April J - Gloversville, NY 12078 (34.4 mi) - Writing Tutor - $43.00/hr.
Working with children of all ages has taught me just how important education is. Reading and writing is especially important and they will need it in their everyday life. Every child deserves a good education and nothing would make me happier than to provide that to them. I am a caring person, always putting myself last. I am hardworking and patient.When working with others, children or co-workers, I put my focus on them especially when they need me. I always do my best and will not stop or give up on any child for any reason. They are our future. Before having children I worked as an teacher's aide at the local pre-school, working with 3-5 year-olds. After that I became a teacher's aid for the local middle school, working with children that were not allowed to go to regular classes due to their behavior. My main job was to show them how to write essays, reports, papers, etc. I also work

Heather A - Gloversville, NY 12078 (35 mi) - Writing Tutor - $48.00/hr.
In having a bachelors degree in Psychology, I have been fortunate enough to have worked at various places, all in which have dealt with constant interaction with people. I have had a great deal of experience substitute teaching children, to waiting on the elderly at a Sunday brunch. My people skills have grown very strong in being able to interact with so many different types of people. In addition to those experiences I will complete requirements for my masters in Psychology and Counseling, which I intend to use to help people with difficult life situations. This can involve things such as trouble with school, fitting in, and self-confidence, all which may be issues that the younger population may face throughout their school years. In having a great passion for working with/teaching children, I think that it is immensely important to remember that everyone has a different way of learni

Cheryl H - Gloversville, NY 12078 (35.1 mi) - Writing Tutor - $46.00/hr.
I am very much a hands-on teacher, given that a lot of what I teach current needs to be done in order to fully comprehend the concepts being put to use. I am also a firm believer in fully explaining an idea, and constantly take multiple approaches to explain a concept so that it is understood fully by the student. As a person who has worked with students of various learning abilities both in lab and in the classroom, I find that it is very important to take a multi-pronged approach to teaching as all students are capable of learning if you present the information in the correct fashion. I currently manage a research lab at Albany Medical College. During my tenure here in the past six years, I have been able to instruct techniques that I have learned and developed to other colleagues and students that have worked in the laboratory, even though my teaching experience began in high schoo

Jess D - Saint Johnsville, NY 13452 (36.9 mi) - Writing Tutor - $51.00/hr.
I was taught to teach by "Socratic Method" which is possibly the best way to teach/tutor. I ask many questions to check the students responsiveness and understanding of key areas of the topics including a reinforcing of the ideas being learned. I cannot count how many students I have had come in frustrated and confused and then quickly answer questions that were simple and built up to understanding harder ideas by the end of a session. And the best award of all is seeing joy and elation that they have a good chance of getting a high grade after learning material. "Socratic Method" is the best proof a tutor can see that a student is learning and has learned what they have been taught. I am a college graduate seeking employment. I graduated from Herkimer County Community College and SUNYIT in Utica. During that time I spent 3 years tutoring several levels of mathematics and intro to financ

William A - Johnstown, NY 12095 (37.2 mi) - Writing Tutor - $47.50/hr.
I enjoy tutoring enough to do it for free, which I have done for my friends from time to time. I’m a friendly laid back person who loves to learn and help others learn, particularly in a one on one setting. I’m quite good at breaking a subject down into an understandable step by step process and making sure they not only know the answers, but how and why they got the answers. I’m good with kids and often would rather be with them instead of adults. Tutoring is one of my best skills, its just something I do well. I’ve tutored k-12 for Amsterdam, Gloversville and Johnstown in almost any subject, I have a strong math background particularly in algebra. I’m a good writer and do some freelance writing online at times. I have some experience with computer applications such as Photoshop, MS Publisher and PowerPoint. My BA. degree is in economics with a minor in business, I’ve completed some cou
