Finance Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Westmoreland, NY

As a graduate from the Business School at Siena College, I have gained a wealth of knowledge pertaining to the study of concepts and theories in the world of accounting and finance. Although the intent of my degree was to utilize it for its direct application within the scope of a business, I feel as though I would be very effective at teaching the material I just got done learning. While at Siena, I did a small amount of tutoring for the quantitative business analysis string of courses, which deals with mathematical applications as they relate to business scenarios. I come from a large family of 5 brothers and sisters, 3 of which are currently teachers within the CNY region. The teaching style that I feel is most effective is by constantly practicing what you are not good at and struggling with it. By struggling first to understand the concept/theory or process, it is my belief that

I believe that each student has a unique way of learning and I try to adapt my teaching to the class. My philosophy is that what we learn in class has to be reinforced with the homework. I review the homework each day. When the homework is reviewed there is a clear understanding that if there is an area the student is struggling with we don't move on until the concept in understood. You cannot build on the foundation if there are blocks missing. If one individual does not understand then I wait for that individual after class and we set up a time to review the problem. I am patient, approachable and understanding. I love when I see that a student had retained what I have been teaching and a "light bulb" goes on. From 1993-2000 I was a part time adjunct professor at Utica College. I found that I had a great passion for teaching. I enjoyed the interaction with students of all ag

All children are students; they can learn. The question is how best do they learn? I have used many differing styles from rote memorization through self-paced self-education. I encourage students to see the wonder and "mystery" (there really isn't any mystery) of Math, regardless of the level, in the real world. To that aid, I try to present real world problems at levels the student can understand. For lower level students, I investigate with them the development of the linear equations involved in setting up a relationship between two factors. A higher level student would solve multiple linear equations. A height vs. time linear relationship then can become quadratic, thus involving sports as an application. My first career was as a Registered Professional Nurse (NYS licensure) for 25 years. During those years, I kept up my interest in various fields of math, such as Abstract
