Outgoing certified teacher elementary/special education B-6

Teach multiple strategies and techniques for successful learning!
My name is Robin and I have excellent teaching strategies for learning. I focus in on academic success, especially for struggeling learners. I start with the basics in all subject areas and make sure basic concepts are learned first then advance on to higher level thinking techniques to broaden my students overall knowledge in the core area they are studying. I have been teaching and tutoring for over 3 years now. I have done both resource base instruction and consult teaching with other teachers. Resource instuction is instruction done in small groups that works on developing skills, teaching strategies for stuggeling learners, and advancing already learned skills. Consult teaching in done during whole group instruction and two teachers team up to help advance stuggeling learners or learners with disabilities. ... read more

My comments on tutoring Social Studies : I have taught American History, European History, & Latin American.

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

A Little Bit About Me...

Been an administrative aid for 3 years and have two degrees but just relocated here in the US. I am willing to tutor but I need materials and if provided, will see to it that I deliver. I have taken multiple major exams, state exams, entrance exams, licensing exams. I know how important preparation for an exam is and tutorial is a good way of making sure one is ready and confident when taking an exam.

I graduated May 2013 from Fredonia with a Bachelors degree in Childhood Education. My concentration is in English. I spent a year of professional development in the Hamburg school district where I had student teaching placements in first, second, and fifth grade. I have spent the last year learning the Common Core standards and aligning curriculum to them. I've worked as a substitute teacher for the last 3 years and have 2 children of my own. My son has ADHD and I work especially well with special needs children.

I've always been driven to help others understand subjects on a deep level. When I was in high school, I taught my brother basic algebra. (He was ten years old at the time.) As the editor of a high IQ society's official publication, I work with people to help their submissions meet their full potential. My undergraduate degree is in economics, and my graduate degree is an MBA with a concentration in finance. I have a very solid understanding of statistics; enough so to allow me to identify and correct errors on two separate professors' answer keys. I'm also strong in finance, accounting, general business, and general written communication.
The single most important thing about being a teacher or mentor is to be respectful, socially aware, and sensitive. Okay, that's three things, but they kind of go together. The second most important thing about being a mentor is to creat ... read more

More About This Tutor...

Having recently completed my doctoral degree, I have a good grasp of what it takes to be successful academically. My degree required extensive training in writing, mathematics, and social science. I have experience working one-on-one with students and in the classroom. I have helped students with all aspects of writing essays and research papers from grammar and organization to research methods. I have experience assisting students in many areas of mathematics including algebra, calculus, and statistics.
As a tutor, my job is to take students from where they are to where they need to be. I can do this successfully for several reasons. First, I am patient. Often student frustration stems from classes proceeding too fast, and teachers lacking time to help slower learners. By patiently working with a student, I can teach at a pace that works best for them, overcoming much discouragem ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have extensive experience working with dually diagnosed individuals. The students I taught not only had difficulty learning but also exhibited some emotional and mental difficulties. I work well with students both individually and in group lessons. My special education experience has provided me with an ability to identify where and why students are having difficulty learning. I am able to easily modify and adapt lessons to a students needs.
I enjoy working with and teaching all levels of students and children. No two children learn in the same way. It is important to differentiate and identify the way that each child needs to be taught and engaged in the lesson. Lessons must be concrete and meaningful to a child. If things are taught to them in a way and on a level that they can grasp any child can be taught. It is important to me that each child be given an opportunity to ... read more

I have earned a bachelors degree in Accounting and Business Management, along with a minor in Economics. I have worked for Northwest Savings Bank for the past 3 years, in many different areas.

I have been substitute teaching for 5 years. Within that time I decided that teaching was for me and went on to get my degree and certificate to teach. I have completed several long-term substitute teaching positions, picking up where a teacher left off, often times unexpectedly. I have taught classes in the elementary, middle and high school.
My philosophy is that education is power. Knowledge is our greatest defense and our greatest weapon. Through knowledge we gain experience, which enriches our competence, which protests the ills of society, which leads to a social justice, and most important, liberty. Learning is an activity that we should never stop, and if we do, we begin to die. I believe all children can learn given the appropriate avenues to success. Part of our job is to find those avenues and encourage our students to use them.

A Little Bit About Me...

By working closely with other professionals, I have been able to put into practice many of the educational theories and figure out how they work best with my style of teaching and the students with whom I work. I have worked at a school for students with emotional, learning, and behavioral needs and developed positive relationships with each student. I also did a research study to improve behavior, reduce anxiety and stress and enhance academic performance with the use of biofeedback software. Last year, I worked as a Special Education teacher where I was able to take advantage of many professional development opportunties. I was trained in Orton-Gillingham, which I used as part of a reading program that improve reading scores immensely.
I love being around children and watching them be successful and enjoy their school adventure. To do this, I provide opportunities for the student ... read more

More About This Tutor...

As A State College graduate, I have been very well prepared to achieve proficiency in education. I have learned several techniques to work woth students of diverse backgrounds and have gained insight into which technique works better with particular students. I believe students are unique and everybody learns in their own way; some learn better in group settings while others prefer individualism. Some students prefer to take small breaks while learning, while others prefer to work from beginning to end.
I thoroughly enjoy teaching and working with students of all ages. I look forward to helping educate 5 year olds as well as 15 year olds. I believe every student is special and unique in their own special way. Many times when a student requires extra assistance such as tutoring, he or she simply has a different learning style. This will be implimented with my teaching style- I am a ... read more
