I am an expert on the clarinet, but it was not listed. I love to tutor. Tutoring offers benefits that the classroom cannot. I tutor by asking a lot of questions. I like to get to the root of what my pupil understands, and then build on that knowledge by showing how that same level of understanding can be applied to more complicated concepts. I offer many examples and different methods to achieve the same result to solidify the concept and to allow the pupil to choose which method best suits him or her. I have two years of classroom experience in mathematics. I have increased the passing rate of the TAKS test both years for Senior re-testers, and I also increased the passing rate for seniors taking the Accuplacer test - a placement test used by colleges such as Lone Star Community College. I have extensive experience in tutoring. I began tutoring while a student in high school, tut

I have been playing the Alto Saxophone for 12 years. I have also played in that time the Baritone saxophone as well. I played in the wind ensemble at Fresno Pacific for two years. I am not experienced in jazz. I have been a tutor for over four years. I enjoy tutoring and teaching a variety of subjects to whoever wants to learn. Learning for the sake of learning is one of the most important things I have learned in college and that is how I apply myself to tutoring. School should not be about just memorization; it should be about learning for the sake of learning. I tutor not for facts, but for concepts and how everything fits into the "big picture."

I would describe my philosophy of education as an eclectic mixture of perennialism, progressivism, existentialism, and essentialism. As a prospective educator, I find it extremely important to ensure student learn basic skills and concepts in a classroom environment that is conducive to leaning. Students are valued commodities to our tomorrow and as an educator, I assume responsibility to instill moral values that promote students becoming ideal citizens. Students also need thought provoking stimulation that scaffolds learned material and experiences while erecting new concepts, ideas and more concise understanding. Experimentation, manipulative objects and social interaction between students is essential when considering the different learning styles of students and when coupled with nurtured creativity and individuality students are sure to learn, grow, and develop into valued assets t

I teach by playing with my students and offering constant advice and instruction through exercises and etudes from various books. I started playing saxophone in the fourth grade and ever since, I have practiced and competed in hope to become the best. Now that I am a senior at John P. Stevens High School and my NJMEA All-State and NJMEA Region competitions are over, I would like to share my abilities with other like minded and hardworking students. Through hard work and perseverance, I was given the highest award for music in New Jersey, the Governor's Award for Music (given to only 2 musicians in all of NJ).

I play saxophone and clarinet. I studied clarinet in Minsk music colleges from 1971 to 1980. My experience includes playing saxophone and clarinet with small bands (2-4 musicians), serving restaurants and family events in the communities where I lived. I have been teaching computer programming for many years and in various settings. I also have much experience supporting computer users on the phone or at their workstations. Teaching is an art. Most people cannot explain how they do what they do. As a software engineer and a musician I devoted much time to develop my teaching skills and making complicated concepts understood by my students. I like the students to know what they will learn beforehand and go towards the goal of being able to do it in the end of a lesson or group of lessons. Programming consists of a mosaic of individual skills - the more individual skills you h
