Certified Teacher with a variety of experiences.

I have been teaching and tutoring for many years. I have tutoring experience for students in grades 1,2,3,and 5. I have teaching experience in Special Education and Elementary Education in grades K,1,2,4, and 5. I began my career as a teacher's assistant. I taught second grade for 2 years. I currently teach 5th grade. My student teaching was completed at all grade levels with a concentration in k-2 and 4-5.
My teaching style depends on the student I am working with. Teaching is about working with the student in the way that works best for them. I hold my students to high expectations that I know they are capable of reaching. I think it is important for students to identify their goals to help them determine their educational path.

My comments on tutoring ADD/ADHD : Before becoming a Certified Public Librarian, I greatly enjoyed working with children of all ages with different abilities in several acclaimed summer recreation camps and art class settings. More recently, I have worked with ADD/ADHD children who need assistance in reading, support in concentration, and coordination in reaching goals.

After six years of social work experience as a caseworker for Westchester County Department of Social Services where I worked extensively with families and children with special needs, I returned to college to receive my Master's degree in Library and Information Science. In 1978 I started my librarian career at the New York State Library, as a reference librarian specializing in the humanities, social sciences and legal research. I soon became coordinator of staff training (for a staff of over 200), both organizing and teaching classes in many subjects, and was liason with the New York State Data Center and Census Bureau. My interest and love of teaching and working with people led to having responsibility for overseeing the SUNY internship program, providing guidance and training to students. I also had a role as Chair of numerous committees, including disability awareness and ergonomi ... read more

I completed my Masters at the University at Albany in Summer of 2013 in both Special Education and Literacy. During this program I completed several internships to prepare me for specific Special Education as well as Literacy instruction.

More About This Tutor...

Currently, I work for the Saratoga Springs and Ballston Spa school districts as a home instructor for grades 6 to 12. I enjoy working with the kids one on one and feel wonderful about helping them stay up to date with their school work until they are physically able to return to the regular classroom setting. Aside from home instruction, I also work regularly as a substitute for Saratoga County schools, and have built up a great working relationship with all faculty and students in each building that I am assigned. Prior to working for Saratoga Springs, I taught 1st grade for two years at PS 325 which is located in Manhattan. I had a very successful run at PS 325, and I am proud of my accomplishments with the children especially in the area of mathematics and reading. Lacking opportunities at home, many of my children faced incredible challenges when it came to learning thus I had ... read more

I have worked with children from grades K-9; primarily focusing on children in grades K-6. Over the past few years, I have had the wonderful opportunity to work with children of diverse groups, including those students with disabilities, those students performing at grade level, and those students who were performing above grade level as well.

I have been a student teacher, an intern, and am currently working as a substitute teacher.

I think it is more important to understand the student than to understand the material. Don't get me wrong - as a teacher I always re-educate myself to the material if need be - but I feel my real strength as an educator lies in finding a new way to teach the same concept. If a student is failing to learn, it is less often the material itself and more often the way it is being presented. Finding a new way is something I have practiced in school and at BOCES, and is my greatest strength as a teacher.
I hold an English degree from a program that largely overlapped with Education - basically, I have studied teaching as a student at college. On the other end of the spectrum, I have been a substitute educator for Capital Region BOCES for 3 years, working with teaching professionals on short-term assignments. Through this experience I believe I have gathered a good deal of craft in the a ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I am an educator with a repertoire of abilities that I will continually seek to hone. At the core is my ability to create a safe and nurturing environment for all of my students in which they can grow and learn. Each of my students will be a better person for knowing me and I will be a better person for knowing each of my students. After being a paralegal for nearly 18 years, I obtained a Master’s of Science in Education. I am currently pursuing an additional certification in Special Education. I pride myself on excellent teacher/student rapport.
I utlize diverse assessment techniques in order to achieve maximum learning by the students. I understand the importance of determining a child's intrinsic/extrinsic motivators. I believe that a teacher may indeed be the center toward which the students will gravitate. However, I perceive my role of teacher as one of guidance. ... read more

I believe that the mark of a talented instructor is not just being knowledgeable, but also being able to dynamically engage her students; effectively impart her knowledge to them; and remain aware of learning differences and accommodate her teaching style accordingly. Therefore, I aim to be as collaborative, engaging, and flexible as possible. My impression of myself as this type of teacher has been corroborated by my students’ verbal and written feedback. In addition to these elements, my teaching style is influenced by my familiarity with the empirical literature in the area of learning impairment and an understanding of how a person’s relative cognitive strengths and weaknesses may affect his/her academic performance. Also, the clinical aspect of my graduate training helps me with interpersonal effectiveness across a number of settings. In short, the integration between my professiona ... read more

I have over ten years of teaching experience. I had my own third and second grade classrooms for a total of eight years, which included daily/weekly planning, teacher/parent communication, colleague teamwork to develop units, development of assessments and designing/usage of rubrics, report cards, and classroom management implementation. Our literacy block consisted of the speaking, listening, reading, and writing. Both small and whole group instruction were used for both math and ELA. I worked one on one with students needing the extra time on skills they might have been weak with.
I believe in providing a safe, consistent, and enthusiastic enviornment for children to learn. I truly believe children are not cut from the same mold, and we must get to know the individual child, their strengths, areas of weakness, and interests. Children all learn differently and it is most ben ... read more

I love teaching and working with all children. I believe all children can learn, but each in different ways. I am available to help your child find academic success. I am patient, easy going, and considerate. My goal is to provide the best education possible
As a Siena graduate, I was very much driven to achieve a high level of excellence in education. I have earned a bachelor's degree in Science with a minor in psychology, which has enabled me to gain an understanding in many areas of math and science. I was a foster care social worker for a couple of years in which I have taught teenagers many independent living skills along with assistance with their school studies.
