Mathematics Tutor in Multiple Areas

I have been a Teacher/Coach for the past 4 years, and a Tutor for the past 6 years. I am well versed in all areas of Mathematics, and along with that Problem Solving, and Test Taking. I have taught at the High School Level from 2008-2011, and for the past year, I have taught both High School and College, as well as Tutor Students from Elementary School to College.
When explaining the aspects of a particular subject, especially Mathematics, I break down the work into its simplest form, and from there, build up to more complex components. With a foundation of Problem Solving, anything in Math is able to be understood.

More About This Tutor...

I have been tutoring for both adults and adolescents for over five years in a variety of fields. I develop individual learning plans that are designed based on each students strengths and learning style. Additionally, I have found that making the material relevant to life outside of the classroom results in greater mastery. The material will be taught so that it is easily transferable to other areas. I have experience helping students with and without special needs.

More About This Tutor...

I received my MBA while a Manager at Verizon for twenty years. My BA in Psychology, my GPA was 3.87. I often tutored children with mental health or learning disabilities in a variety of situations, upon recommendations from Psycholgists and professors. I myself had struggled with how to approach learning, as only recently diagnosed, after all this time , as ADHD. I have a skill at knowing when a child is not understanding the way something may be taught, and have learned a variety of ways to approach a problem for easier comprehension.

A Little Bit About Me...

3 years experience working with students with profound intellectual, physical and mental disabilities. Currently teaching in a public school 11th grade geometry, resource room, and co-teaching integrated geometry. I have vast behavioral management experience. I've worked with students whom encompass virtually every disability and understand how each disability adversely affects that students ability to learn in the classroom environment.
My theory is developing a personal repoire with a student is critical.

A Little Bit About Me...

I am very experienced in teaching small groups of college level students. During my senior year of college I was selected to be a Russian apprentice teacher through Kenyon College's Intensive Language Program. I taught students three times per week for approximately an hour each session. I had to go through training for this position, which taught me how to design lessons and utilize teaching tools to help students understand the material. As I am a recent graduate myself, I understand the needs of most students and what it takes to keep them engaged in learning. For example, I frequently used games as memorization tools for students that focused on repetition as a learning aid. In September, I am leaving to take part in the Peace Corps as a teacher of English language in Ukraine. I plan on pursuing teaching as my future career and want to keep building on my experience.

I believe that each student has a unique learning style and therefore, teachers must develop a unique approach to each an every student. By providing a comfortable learning environment, students feel more open to share and learn. Trust and respect between teacher and student is essential for the best learning to take place. With a student-centered approach, each individual can gain the most from their time in school.
After finishing Graduate School, I immediately began working as a 7th Grade Summer School English Teacher. Along with a one month Long-Term Substitute position teaching 9th and 11th grade English and Advanced English, I was prepared to take on a full-time role. Now as a full-time English Language Arts Support Study Teacher, I work closely with small groups of students to help improve their ELA skills and their general study skills to help improve their overall educ ... read more

I believe the key to teaching at the elementary level is developing a love of learning in the student. A student will simply go through the motions if they are not invested in the subject. I do this in the classroom by sharing my own love of science, books and reading. Focusing on student choice of books and using that as the basis for comprehension, vocabulary and phonics instruction my goal is for the student to challenge themselves and develop a habit of reading everywhere. Science is taught through discovery. My job in science is to create content rich learning experiences and guide students through them.
I have always loved teaching. My first job was working at a summer recreation program teaching tennis and swimming lessons. I worked at a 21st Century Learning Center through college helping needy middle schoolers achieve success. I have taught 2 years of kindergarten a ... read more

I have high expectations that all children can learn and grow. Given that premise, I believe that the primary role of an educator is to assess each child’s strengths and weaknesses and to use this knowledge to meet the student’s needs by building on his or her strengths. My main objective is to create learning experiences that are part of an authentic, integrated curriculum, so that children are able to make meaningful connections to the material being taught. I also believe that it is important to establish a sense that students are part of a community of learners who must work together to make it possible for everyone to learn and grow.
My ultimate goal is to utilize the professional training and experience I obtained in the field of education to help others learn and grow. Both my B.S. in Education earned from SUNY Geneseo and my Masters in Reading earned from Edinboro Unive ... read more

My years of teaching have been greatly varied—traditional/ non-traditional, in the States /overseas, regular/special needs students, children/adults, and with a great variety of nationalities (Swedish, British, Slovak, Serbian, Jordanian, Russian, Dutch, South African, etc.). I have homeschooled our five children. I have provided English conversation classes for children. Also, I founded and directed an English educational resource center for expatriate children, like an international school, but smaller scale and with more individualized instruction. My teaching has covered K-12, and adults in business training. Now, back in the States, I’m substitute teaching, especially in the elementary and special education areas.
For as long as I can remember, I have been a natural teacher. My children say that I can never take them on an outing without making a "school" trip out of it. I lov ... read more

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 achieve the best they can. I have been teaching kids as a substitute for many years and went back to school in my middle 30's to become a teacher. Unfortunately the availability of teaching positions in my area has prevented me from full time employment but I've kept myself busy subbing and working with young adults and those with disabilities further their educational needs.
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 d ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I have spent most of my working years with with children and have found it to be the most enjoyable and rewarding experience there is!! I have learned that patience, understanding, and willingness are not only essential to a learning environment, but that without those qualities present the learning process will be stifled. In my experiences, it has been crucial that the student or child felt comfortable, important, listened to and responded to without judgment. I am passionate about teaching and I care about those I work with. I realize the importance of a positive role model or educator and understand the seriousness of a teaching or tutoring position. One educator can affect a students self-esteem and learning experience and it is my goal to create an environment where each student feels important, comfortable making mistakes, and confident and capable of learning and progression.
