A Little Bit About Me...

I enjoy demonstrating skills and processes and then as a coach/guide in helping students develop and apply these skills and knowledge. I show the students how to properly do a task or work through a problem and then I'll help them master the task or problem solution. It's important that the students can independently solve similar problems by using and adapting demonstrated methods. I encourage student participation. As we work together I’ll learn what best works for them and adjust to their personal learning styles.
Most of my work experience was gain as a teacher’s aide.I work in a self contained classroom.I worked with students in small groups or individually.I would grade and enter grades for the teacher.I took students to Physical Education by myself.I organize and prepare the learning material for the week.I taught science and computer skills portion of the classroom.Each stu ... read more

I am a firm believer that tutoring students one-on-one is very beneficial and gives the student the added time and experience needed to excel in a certain subject. I also believe that each student has a different learning style which should be emphasized during tutoring sessions in order to make the learning experience easier,and more effective.
I have been a full time tutor for the SUNY Research Foundation for four years and have tutored students in grades 6-9 in the areas of english,history,math and science.I am presently located at the Fort Plain High School with the research foundation program.Before this, I was a substitute teacher for three years in the following areas:math, science, english and history. This was also at the high school level.

I spent nine semester at FMCC in the TRiO Student Support Services program. I began as a part time tutor and after one semester the program director saw it prudent to keep me on. During my time with the program I helped to establish several tutoring programs, one at FM and another at Amsterdam High School for the Upward Bound Grant funded program. In my spare time I do private in home tutoring for students seeking to improve their grades and become adept at taking standardized tests. Currently I am providing mathematics tutoring for the EOP program at Cobleskill Community College. Several nights a week I assist several EOP students at a time in courses like Basic Math, Algebra, Calculus, Statistics, and Pre-Calculus.
Tutoring should be a tool used to complement traditional education. When tutoring there is little help in providing information to the student the same way that the te ... read more

I currently manage a research lab at Albany Medical College. During my tenure here in the past six years, I have been able to instruct techniques that I have learned and developed to other colleagues and students that have worked in the laboratory, even though my teaching experience began in high school as a laboratory assistant in the 10th grade biology classroom. Currently, as a lab manager, I am responsible for training new students in techniques as well as instructing and teaching interns through various independent study programs in both technique and theories behind their projects. I have mentored three undergraduate interns, as well as assisted multiple PhD students as they begin their scientific careers.
I am very much a hands-on teacher, given that a lot of what I teach current needs to be done in order to fully comprehend the concepts being put to use. I am also a fir ... read more

Though applicable to any subject, for science and math I adhere to the inquiry method. I'm believe in the teacher finding something interesting in what is being taught, asking leading questions with which the students answer, and having the students learn through their answers. Lecturing is my least favorite method, and I believe the least effective.
I have tutored and did substitute teaching in Mathematics, Chemistry and Physics at several local schools. I have taken several graduate courses in education including classes in methods and adolescence physiology. My philosophy of education is "Everyone is capable of learning something about anything as long as it's taught in a way that the student understands." These are my own words and I firmly believe them. Currently I teach adults in square dancing and social dancing. I also have a student with Literacy Volunteers of A ... read more

I believe it is essential to have the ability to adapt your teaching style to the student's skill set, especially when tutoring. My strength as a teacher comes from my ability to assess where each student has weaknesses and correct those weaknesses. I believe that with patience and hard work all students can learn and have positive educational experiences.
My experiences at Deerfield Academy (Deerfield, MA) gave me a passion to educate and mentor. I received my bachelor's degree from SUNY-Albany in Biology (2001). I began tutoring predominately high school students in 1998 in the areas of Mathematics(NYS Regents), Regents Biology and Chemistry. My success as a tutor led to a full-time teaching position at Gloversville High School (Gloversville, NY). My reputation at Gloversville created an opportunity for me as Science Department Chair at Hamilton-Fulton-Montgomery County BOC ... read more

More About This Tutor...

As a Siena College graduate I developed a very hands on approach to active learning. Through classroom lecture and instruction I've completed the necessary coursework to complete my BS of biology. Due to my strong work ethic I've gained knowledge and skills in the physical sciences, as well as in other subject areas. During my college years I subbed as teacher at a public K-12 school. During that time I taught a variety of grade levels, and worked as a one-on-one aide.
I believe that in order to succeed in teaching and being an educator you must inspire those that you are teaching. A child who is excited to learn, will do much better. I feel a hands on approach is best, guiding the child to personal success.

I really would like to help make a difference in someone's life and help them understand academics just like myself. When I try to teach someone, I always explain to them the subject as basic and simple as possible. I give a few examples, and then help them figure it out themselves. When/ if they struggle, I will be there to help set them back on track.
I am finishing up my Bachelors degree in Dietetics at SUNY Oneonta- I will be graduated in December. I have been offered positions as a chemistry tutor but denied because of my other jobs. I was a student mentor for a year in high school to students that were "slacking" or wasn't understanding one or more of their classes. I worked at Albany ARC and worked to train young adults and adults in the kitchen- which also included basic skills such as counting and reading.

I have always been driven by helping others. I graduated college and got into the environmental testing field as a chemist. I have been doing this for 6 years. I am currently working towards my certification to becoming a chemistry, physics and math teacher.
I know that every student learns differently; so as a teacher, I must find the best way to teach each student and transfer that into my lessons, so that all the students get involved. I also believe in more hands-on and relating information to modern day things that the students can relate to, which will allow them to re-call the information better.

A Little Bit About Me...

I love teaching and appreciate that subjects such as chemistry can be very difficult for young people. This difficulty is often present for two reasons. The first is that chemistry is not necessarily intuitive. It studies particles that are too small to see and cannot be observed directly. The second is that most of the basic theory is derived with very advanced math and most students are taking chemistry in the tenth or eleventh grade. This means that a conceptual understanding is crucial to success. I attempt to employ easy examples and analogies while patiently talking through problems and constructively giving students a chance to discover answers.
I am a graduate of Union College where I completed an advanced course of study in chemistry, participated in original research, and wrote an undergraduate thesis in order to obtain certification from the American Chemical Society. ... 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.
