My comments on tutoring Testing Skills : I have helped numerous students prepare for tests and all grade levels including college. In most cases, its helping the student deal with test anxieties and how to deal with the various test questions.

As a college graduate and a teacher, I have aspired to help students from K through college to achieve their goals and to be the best they can be. Aditionally, I have taught all grades K-12 and have implemented Study skills courses for students in Grades 3-12. Currently I am a Math Specialist in a local public school system for students in grades K-5. Moreover, my 2 Masters degrees have helped me continue instuct at a higher level in Psychology, College Reading and Study Skills. Over the past 10 years, I have tutored students in Study Skills, Reading and Math.Additionally, I have tutored students for OAA, ACT and SAT.
It is important to me that all children reach their best potential in whatever grade I am teaching. I have been in the teaching profession for 20 years and each day brings something different. Although, I came from a family of medical and science background, I h ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I had the joy of raising, teaching, and mentoring my two children from birth and into young adult years and advising with unpredictable life experiences. My 10-year educational pathway as a non-traditional student challenged me to seek experiences in elementary grades (reading & writing tutor for six years), as well as, non-traditional students, teach English as a second language (ESL). I have experience in healthy lifestyle programming development-Bullying -(middle childhood), and -Darker Side of the Sun - (college level). I am all about making healthy lifestyle choices.
It is my love for people of all ages, that drives me to see them become more confident, reach a higher level of competency, and experience joy and fulfillment. I use different tools to assess the best learning style of an individual, i.e., some learn best by listening, while others may learn best by touching an ... read more

My teaching style is inclusive of the hands-on approach. I believe that all students should have equal access to education. While that doesn't hold true, in the classroom, I encourage and appreciate students whom voice their opinion on a regular basis. I believe that all students also have a different approach to learning, and thus, they must be approached differently with different methods. Some students are definitely visual learners, while others are auditory or kinesthetic learners. Thus, it is important to acknowledge and implement different techniques to involve all students learning styles.
As a graduate of Miami University's College of Arts and Sciences with a Bachelor's degree in English Literature and a thematic sequence in Macroeconomics, I have the intellectual acumen to accommodate different types of students. Currently, I am a substitute teacher for Maumee City School ... read more

I love helping people learn, especially kids. My mother is a teacher, and emphasized the importance of an education throughout my childhood. I have grown up with the benefits of a healthy learning environment, and I think every child deserves the same. I am friendly, patient, and relate well to children. I have a younger sister in high school and many of her friends' parents have come to me for help with their child's education. I have provided the positive, role model-like relationships that have enabled me to establish a rapport with them over time. I believe that for students to succeed in school, they must have a desire to learn as well as a support system that values education. If both of those things exist, success is inevitable.
I value education to the highest degree. I graduated in May earning a BA in Business Administration with dual concentrations in Sports Management a ... read more

I am a life-long learner. I believe that everyone learns and take their learning style into consideration when developing lessons. My goal is that students learn the fundamental content of the courses I teach. But beyond that, I hope to foster critical thinking, facilitate the acquisition of life-long learning skills, prepare students to function effectively in an information economy, and develop problem-solving strategies for doing so.
SUNY Potsdam instructors provided me the opportunity to learn about and earn a Master's in Education with a focus on Reading and a BS in English Writing and Elementary Education. This journey began with an Associates Degree in Commercial Art from Sullivan County Community College. These areas of study have enabled me to teach in New York and Ohio as: Reading Specialist K-3, H.S. Reading Substitute, Jr. High Reading teacher, college instructor te ... read more

I truly care about the success of each student’s ability to learn. My focus is on building the strengths of youth to supplement weaker areas. When tutoring, I use materials directly from their text and assignments, and help students in searching for the right answer. My goal is to teach each youth the tools of self-sufficient learning so that they can independently continue on successfully in their academic careers.
I have tutored elementary level public and private school youth in various courses for 10 years. While my education focuses on criminal justice, my employment, training & volunteerism have enabled me to work with youth in a variety of settings. I am aware that educational success is greatly affected by cognitive ability. I’ve worked with school administrators regarding I.E.P.'s, 504 Plans, the progress of learning objectives, and addressing behavioral issues pertaining ... read more

I love teaching students of all ages and I recognize that most students do not get the help they need during the school day, which is why it is important for them to get the help they need outside of class. Each student learns differently and it is important for me to figure out a way that works best for him or her so that I can instill the techniques that will help them throughout their entire educational career. I find that many students get frustrated when they don’t understand and if I take the time to help them at their own pace in a teaching style that works best for them school becomes less stressful. I feel that once students feel confident in the classroom they can enjoy learning and that’s what I hope to give my students.

A Little Bit About Me...

As a foster parent, I tutored our first child as he progressed through kindergarten and the first grade. His previous school experience was lacking at best, and he had little confidence in his scholastic ability. I was able to pinpoint his natural aptitude--mathematics--and use it to help not only boost his self-esteem regarding academics, but also to tailor my approach to his other subjects as well. Since math is very much tied to logic, using logical constructs to aid him in his critical thinking proved fruitful in showing him how to solve problems regarding tasks such as alphabetization, grammar, and spelling, among others.
Each individual has a unique approach to critical thinking, and using that approach is the best way for that person to learn. I make every attempt to identify a person's perspective so as to shape my teaching for that person in the best possible way. Whe ... read more

As an MBA graduate I have consistently sought to continually improve and manage as many aspects of life that are presented to me. While achieving my BA in Philosophy I stretched my focus into the areas of science and mathematics, given my strengths in those areas. My MBA in Management facilitated the integration of my math and science skills into a practical system of approach and practice. My Calculus skills come in handy while everyone else is doing summations, I find integrals much faster. In addition to tutoring a variety of subjects from history and philosophy to statistics and calculus, I have also tutored students in English, Latin, writing, Geology, Chemistry, Geography, Biology, and Anthropology.
I thoroughly love teaching as I come from a line of teachers myself. I have demonstrated that learning happens on multiple levels depending on what level one is working on. ... read more

I hold a Master's degree in education. I taught Language Arts in an at-risk high school in a Denver suburb.
