Study Skills Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Skaneateles, NY

I'm a fifth-teen year old, currently enrolled at Thomas J. Corcoran High School, where I am a sophomore I currently take IB classes and wanted to start tutoring to pass the time and pick up a little extra cash. I'm drug free and have never tasted alcohol. I try to be patient and usually am. I'd prefer to work with children still in elementary or middle school, seeing as I haven't learned everything yet. I know the basic and more to just about everything eighth grade and below. Typically the setting in which the tutoring will take place will be my house in my dining room area and after that the student may watch television until his or her parent or guardian is there to pick them up.

For the last 4 years I have taught Special Education at the pre-k level. My classes consist of students with disabilities, as well as students without disabilities. Over the last four years I have had the opportunity to work with students with various disabilities including: Autism, Traumatic brain injuries, ADD and ADHD, Down Syndrome and learning disabilities. I can adapt my teaching style to the learning style of the student. I believe that interactive and hands on activities benefit students with disabilities because they are learning through doing, rather than simply being told.

I understand the importance of assessing each childs unique learning style. I love working with children, and I believe they learn best in an atmosphere condusive to learning. Each and every child has the capability of maximizing their learning ability. My belief is, children learn best with a constructive yet, non-judgemental approach to learning. Learning is not all "black and white", and sometimes requires educators to be creative with each learning experience. I look forward to making a difference in your childs academic success. During my academic career, I had the fortunate opportunity to complete internships in four elementary schools. I found the one on one time with the children to be the most effective, as well as the most rewarding. It was during this time that each childs unique learning style became apparent. Learning is extremely important in the early years of educati

I spent much of my time helping others to improve in many areas of life. I just graduated from graduate school to obtain a masters degree in counseling services. This has provided me with the certification required to work in a school as a guidance counselor. While attending graduate school I continued my coaching at the 7th and 8th grade level as a head wrestling coach and two years (1 yr JV) coaching football. I have also spent the past four years as a substitute teacher for all ages and subjects. I have also been a private tutor in which I provided instructional support for students individually in academics, as well as improving self-concept, goal setting, coping mechanisms, and social and organizational skills. I pride myself on helping to create and improve a vast array of skills while providing the students with a strong foundation of what it takes to be life-long learners. I beli

I have experience working with students in a group and individual setting, including teaching English to students in a foreign country, a child care worker,camp counselor, sunday school teacher, and student teacher in public schools. In addition, I have been a tutor for student athletes. My teaching styles is one that recognizes that students have different learning styles- visual, auditory, and kinesthetic, so I try to differentiate my lessons to target all learners. I use visual representations, manipulatives, as well as oral explanations to help students learn. I truly believe that with developmentally appropriate activities and lessons, students at all various skill sets and abilities can learn.

While studying at SUNY ESF I held a position as a teaching assistant for Western Civilization. This involved grading exams and papers, preparing and giving lectures, and holding office hours to assist students with any questions or concerns they may have had. I also spent time volunteering to teach and after school science club through ESF Outreach for elementary / middle school aged children. I feel as though every student will have their own niche. They will have a special subject that they enjoy the most and one that they despise. I think that figuring out how the child studies for the subject they enjoy will lead to an understanding of how to motivate that student to learn the subjects that are more difficult for them. Also, if the student's teacher stays positive and pushes him or her towards success by means of positive reinforcement they will succeed.

I have had many years of educational instructing in a classroom environment with my previous employment positions. I have filled the role of new hire trainer, technical instructor, and professional development program design manager. In all of these roles I had the opportunity to teach / train on various levels in both a one-on-one setting as well as a group setting. I have a passion for teaching and love sharing my knowledge with others. Tutoring would allow me to take my training experience to the next level and would be another step forward towards my ultimate goal of teaching full-time. My teaching style is a combination of techniques I found successful during my educational studies. First, I believe the teacher has to be passionate and have a true love for what he or she is doing; this is passion, or lack thereof, is evident when interacting with a student. Second, patience is of up

I truly enjoy inspiring people to love learning! I engage students in their studies in creative ways to connect with their interests. I get to know my learners in order to bridge any gaps that they may have experienced. I work collaboratively with parents, students and their educators to ensure that all requirements are fulfilled. I act as a coach, as well as a cheerleader for my students, and help them to experience the joy of learning! I have had the privilege to teach English at the secondary and college levels.

Throughout my undergraduate time at Le Moyne College, I worked as both a tutor and substitute teacher. After graduation, I continued to work as a tutor and teacher while I pursued my Master's Degree. Once I finished graduate school I began teaching full time as a Special Education teacher. I have worked with students in all grades ranging from Kindergarten through grade 12. I have experience tutoring in all subject areas. I really enjoy working with students of all ages. One of my favorite parts about being a tutor is working with students in small group or 1:1 settings. I have a great deal of experience working with both students with disabilities and students without disabilities. I believe that each student is different and tutoring allows for the student to focus on the way that they learn best. Depending on the age of the student, I also believe that they can play a role in determ
