Your Child Needs Help? I Am the One Who Can Help Them!!!

I am a direct/explicit instructional teacher or instructor. Explicit instruction is broken up into stages that follow a sequence. The sequence of teaching/learning is as follows: first setting a purpose for learning, then telling students what to do, then showing them how to do it, and finally guiding them with hands-on application of the new item that was learned. Reading Comprehension & Fluency Strategies: Fluency- 1. Focus on phonemic and alphabetic awareness 2. Teaching the meaning of learning simple to complex words 3. Give strategies to increase the speed of students reading aloud Comprehension- I focus on the five close reading strategies that support Common Core learning. 1. Number the paragraphs that you will be reading 2. Chunk the text 3. Underline and circle with a purpose 4. Write in the margin what each paragraph is saying 5. Take a deeper look into w ... read more

My comments on tutoring Continuing Education : I certainly can help in this area with my 12 years of assisting students from 17 to 40 years of age.

My name is John Calleri and I have been a teacher for more than 30 years. During that time, I have taught in two languages, English and Spanish, and in three countries: the United States, Germany, and Spain. I have taught Social Studies to grades 7 to 12, Spanish to grades 9 to 11, and GED (high school equivalency) to students aged 17 to 40. My students have been stateside Americans, newly arrived immigrants to the U.S., the children of our military in Germany, and native Spaniards in the Canary Islands, Spain. My wife and I lived in Europe for more than four years, I lived in Mexico for a half year, and I have traveled extensively in Costa Rica and throughout South America. Since childhood I have been fascinated with the past – with how early peoples lived and thought - transporting myself in time and space as I fought the Battle of Quebec, watched the tumbrels roll in Paris, saw Jeffe ... read more

I have worked in several school districts working with a wide range of students who have very different learning style. I am currently substituting in school districts which allows me to have a general idea on what students are currently working on. I have worked in Buffalo school, Amherst, Ken-ton and Maryvale. I have also planned and implemented lessons to meet the needs of all students in the classrooms that I have taught. I strive to make sure that all of the students I work with are successful.

For a tutor to cater to your needs, choose me!

I am a hands on teacher. I like to get to the very rudimentary components of whatever we are learning and build on that foundation. There are no shortcuts but I do believe through repetition of the building blocks it allows to understand more complex concepts in each subject.
Tutored General Chemistry 1, General Chemistry 2, Organic Chemistry 1, Organic Chemistry 2 and Calculus 1. Every student I have consistently tutored over the years, there has been improvement in scores. As long as I have the material that is needed for tutoring prior to the tutor session, the session should be very effective in improving grades and most importantly understanding.

I am someone who understands that not all children learn effectively the same way. I am someone who will sit down with my student and ask them questions regarding how they learn and how they do not learn. Sometimes a student will not know how they learn effectively but they will know what does not work for them. From there I try to tailor a program to suit that student. As a tutor you are able to have that one on one time and you can design your instructions for a specific student therefore making your teaching more effective.
While pursuing a double degree from the University at Buffalo and working part-time, I worked in peer tutoring groups for Latin and writing. I have experience proof reading papers and correcting grammar. My four semesters of college Latin have given me a understanding of English language origins and modern usages. Latin also helps me to use punctuation and gr ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

The very first task is to assess the student's age and learning style. Once this is determined I select the teaching style to best accomodate the student's needs. Although I have used Expert and Formal formats, I prefer to incorporated Personal and Facilitator styles. Personal establishes a prototype for how to think and behave. It oversees, guides, and directs by showing how to do things. Facilitator guides and directs students by asking questions, exploring options, suggesting alternatives. The goal is to develop the capacity for critical thinking, initiative, and responsibility with lots of encouragement and support.
Throughout my career in business and education I have always loved and appreciated the opportunity to teach and to mentor. I have worked in several college and vocational school departments including teaching, financial aid counseling, registrar, student affairs, ca ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I love composition and literature, and I am especially drawn to students at the developmental level. I am good at accentuating the positive in all students, in helping them find their voice and appreciate the voices and styles of other writers. From homeschooling my own children, I learned to adapt material to individual learning styles. I am passionate about reading and writing at any level and I strive to pass that on to my students.
I currently teach college composition and literature interpretation. I also tutor English composition at a community college. I homeschooled my own children, and I recently recieved my NYS certification to teach English Language Arts at the secondary level. I have a BA in psychology and classics and an MA in psychology.

I have worked with all levels of students from very bright elementary school to graduate students and post doctorate students. I understand that all students learn in different ways. I talk with student and parent and see what they need and want from a tutoring session. I have an easy going style and try to make the learning fun. However, it is learning and not play -time. We must work together in order to achieve student goals. I like to see results and watch students grow in confidence and competence in all areas of their lives.
I tutored inner city youth through a program at D'Youville College in Buffalo, NY. I helped many International Graduate Students improve their English and writing skills.

More About This Tutor...

I have tutored students both with and without learning disabilities. In my 15 years as a teacher in elementary and high school, and as a tutor, I have covered math through algebra and geometry,biology, geography/history, chemistry and physics. I am capable of tutoring college level courses in math and science, too. I believe each person is capable of learning, and that a report card can be improved by learning 'how to learn'. I use manipulatives, white boards, games, and music to tap into those areas of the brain that best respond to learning the material. Tutoring time should be a time for children/adults to anticipate with joy, not fear. Bringing out your academic best is my number one goal for you and/or your child.
I have been a teacher and tutor for over 15 years, specifically in private schools. The first student I tutored (as an elementary student) has graduated from ... read more

I love trying to help children gain knowledge. I believe anyone is capable of learning something new no matter how old they are and that patience and the use of deductive knowledge are they key's to having someone develop their knowledge. My method of teaching will evoke these attributes as well as reptition so that not only will your child know the material I am tutoring by the time that I am done, but it will also become routine to them. My main goal will be to teach them to know how to reason and analyse themselves while guideing them to make the right choices on their academic work.
As a UB graduate, I was very driven to learn the most I could in the areas of humanities and social sciences. I have earned two bachelor degrees, BA in History and BA in Political Science.

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 degree Masters program but feel I need to have a job to justify the repayment(s) of additional student loans that would be needed to finish my MA. I have recently been a four county advocate for people with special needs as the Disabilities Program Navigator. I would still hold this position if funding had not run out. I have the abilities to work with any level of education.
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 ... read more
