My comments on tutoring Reading : I have taught people to read from the illiterate adult to the toddler. I spend a great deal of my time reading. As one must read, if they intend to write.

I have been a professional print/broadcast journalist for roughly 15 years. I am a perpetual student and am currently finishing my bachelors in communications online at the University of Tampa and have been accepted in their Master of Fine Arts program for Film Studies. An MFA is a terminal degree, so I will be qualified to teach on a collegiate level upon graduation. As reality often transcends policy, I currently take interns from a local SUNY institution and mentor young broadcasters, so as technology evolves, I will as well. My main body of work is primarily broadcast, but I regularly produce print articles for both online and print publications. From developing concepts for solid stories to completed final products, I am adept at producing both broadcast and print work.

As a graduate of the University of Rochester, I have obtained a Bachelor's Degree in Political Science. Aside from this, I also have a minor in Economics, as well as a concentration in English. Throughout this coursework I have written numerous research papers and essays, and as a result I believe I have very strong written, grammatical, and reading comprehension skills.

I believe it is very important to be constructive and patient when it comes to teaching. I believe that I am thoughtful, patient, considerate, and compassionate when it comes to teaching.

A Little Bit About Me...

Still fresh out of college I have been looking for an area to exercise my expertise in writing and my knowledge of literature. Although I have no formal experience in a teaching position I do believe an opportunity in tudoring would be great experience for me and beneficial to those I can help. And I cannot say I have official experience tudoring students I aided many of my friends and acquaintances fulfil their english requirements throughout highschool and college both in interpreting literature and help with writing form and style.
Whenever I have been recruited to help someone in the past I have been a firm beleiver in less is more. Though it is important for the person to understand what he/she is reading or writing it is important to shadow their work instead of smothering them. I always feel for both myself and others that learning comes from doing and trying by ones sel ... read more

My younger sister is now in high school, and I help her anytime she needs it.
I love teaching and helping kids. I have been around a lot of kids all my life, and maybe I am not a people person, but kids seem to love me.

As a volunteer with the Salvation Army I have spent many years volunteering with children, teaching Sunday School and Band. When I graduated from Norwich University, the oldest private military school in the nation with a BA in History, and spent two summers working at summer camps as a Swim instructor and lifeguard, I added to my knowledge and experience of teaching and tutoring. I have spent the last 5 years tutoring in History and music, and have general understanding of Science. As a musician I have focused mainly in Brass and vocal music and specialize in Trombone, but am proficient in Trumpet/Cornet, Baritone/Euphonium and Eb Tuba.
As a teacher I realize that every student has a different style of learning, and I work to quickly understand the best ways to teach students in a one on one setting, generally using some form of self-discovery, depending on the subject. When teach ... read more

As a teacher in the Rome City School District, my goal is to challenge every student in my classroom. My goal is to improve student achievement and help each individual feel more confident. This is my second year teaching first grade in Rome. Prior to my employment in the Rome City School District, I have worked for BOCES and The House of Good Shepherd. I also have taught Summer School Chemistry at Proctor. I earned my degree from SUNY Cortland.
I love teaching and working with all students. I believe all children can learn and it is about finding the child's learning style. I am a firm believer in teaching through discovery. Sometimes I use manipulatives or games to help with instruction. Other times it is a mini lecture or work sheets. It all depends the child and the material that needs to be taught.
