Logic Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Alden, NY

I have been a Teacher/Coach for the past 4 years, and a Tutor for the past 6 years. I am well versed in all areas of Mathematics, and along with that Problem Solving, and Test Taking. I have taught at the High School Level from 2008-2011, and for the past year, I have taught both High School and College, as well as Tutor Students from Elementary School to College. When explaining the aspects of a particular subject, especially Mathematics, I break down the work into its simplest form, and from there, build up to more complex components. With a foundation of Problem Solving, anything in Math is able to be understood.

I can explain concepts in a very easy-to-understand way. I'm extremely patient and make sure that people follow along with what I'm saying. I've tutored several people with math and homework problems. They have always reported more understanding from me than their teachers, and were very satisfied with the lessons. The lessons were always in-house, but I am capable of helping online as well. Some were 1 lesson, while others were lessons over the course of several weeks to help prepare and pass exams.

More than 2 decades of teaching experience. I use a variety of teaching styles to involve students in the learning process: in traditional and computer-mediated classroom settings, and over the internet. The traditional teaching style (face-to-face interaction) was blended with technology (such as online discussions and assignments) for a boosted learning environment. Microsoft (MS) Excel 2010, MegaStat 9.1, and SPSS (version 18) were incorporated as technology tools and software support during lecture meetings. More importantly, emphasized on the actual applications of the studied themes for better grasping of the subject on part of the student. * Fluid knowledge of data acquisition and analysis tools employed to extract and analyze data from relational databases. * Intrinsic creative talent to learn new software and continually acquire new competencies. * Attention to detail, great t

I offer students a patient listening ear so I can encourage their strengths and understand their weaknesses. Often by asking questions, doing practice problems and just listing to the student's logic, I can tweak their thought process so they better understand the material. I am so proud of a student who begins to understand something they thought was too difficult. If a student has a willingness to learn I can share techniques to make learning easier. I help students develop a step-by-step process they can apply to each type of problem. I find that using charts and tables can help to organize complex problems. Even a wrong answer often gets partial credit if the work shown is neat and the teacher can follow the student's logic. I am committed to achieving excellence in education and helping others to do so too. For four years I tutored Accounting, Statistics and other college math subje

In teaching special education, I have learned that children can be successful when given the proper environment to learn in. Providing a consistent, structured environment allows students to develop successful patterns. I believe that students need to develop the tools and strategies to be successful in all phases of life. Remaining positive is crucial as a teacher. Having a brother with a disability has given me the patience and the compassion for all students. I have worked at the Stanley G. Falk School for three years, including teaching during this time. I currently teach fifth grade at a satelite location in Buffalo Public School #27. I have worked with different types of students, including those with both behavioral and emotional disabilities. My strong work ethic and outlook is an excellent attribute to bring to any environment. I started tutoring for the Lancaster Youth

During my studies at SUNY Buffalo I tutored in Regents Math which I also took when I was in high school. In Virginia Tech I was a Graduate Research Assistant. I ran Aerospace Engineering labs, assigning work to undergraduate students which I graded. I was available for multiple hours per week assisting students in their homework and lab reports. Since then I have been a math tutor in calculus. Engineering requires a solid understanding of math from the basics such as algebra and geometry to more difficult calculus and linear algebra. What I have learned in both mathematics and physics is used almost on a daily basis which is why I know the subjects so well. I believe in a pretty simple rule; repeat, repeat, repeat. Learning math and physics through example is the best way. Repeating these examples is a sure way to success. They student may not like math or physics, but once th

I believe that all students have a different way and style of learning. As an educator I take an open approach to teaching. For each student to succeed they must find a style of learning that suits them. I take the time to find the time to find the best way for the student to succeed. In 2005 I graduated from Fredonia University with childhood education including a middle school extension in English. I completed my master's degree in Special Education from Medaille University in 2008. I hold a New York Certification in Childhood Education as well as English through grade 9. I have worked in many educational levels throughout the elementary and middle school. I spent 3 years as a teacher's aide in a pre-school setting. I spent a year as the academic intervention specialist in a elementary school. I have also spent 2 years as a general education teacher in the first grade. I am w

I would say that the greatest personal attribute that the Lord has given me when it comes to teaching is patience. I allow the student the time that it takes them in order for them to "get it" without pressuring them. I also like to make the material as simple as possible by teaching in a manner where I like to emphasize understanding as opposed to just being able to do it. And typically I find the best way to offer enlightenment to the student is to take whatever concept it is that I am trying to convey to them and draw an analogy to something basic that they do understand to help bridge the gap to the new concept (the same thing that the Lord Jesus Christ did - John 3:12). I have been tutoring and teaching since I entered college. I have helped multiple friends of mine through difficult classes that they needed for their degree. I have held many study groups for difficult upper le

As a training manager, I often taught classes to large groups of individuals on subjects such as statistics, Microsoft Office programs, and teamwork, problem solving and quality concepts. Further, as an engineer, I did a lot of one-on-one teaching of job instructions and job changes. I further informally taught other engineers how to perform different tasks in Word and Excel. Although I am an engineer by education, I have often found myself in a teaching role of all groups of people. I have often been complimented for my tremendous patience and ability to work with others to teach them some new information or concept. I believe in "teaching and doing" where the person is shown something and then they have to do it themselves to help reinforce the concept I'm trying to teach them.

With a Masters Degree in Education, a Bachelors Degree in French, more then seven years of hands-on teaching experience, I have taught hundreds of students both as a classroom teacher and as a tutor. Through my use of technology with web pages, Powerpoint flashcards and cooperative learning, I have had tremendous success with my students surpassing the mastery levels of both the NYS Regents and the NYS Proficiency exams as well as 100% passing rates on both exams for numerous years. My studies abroad give me an insight into both the culture and language. Having studied four different languages including English, I have an extensive vocabulary and am expert at writing and editing essays and research papers. I describe myself as tough but fair and am a firm believer that you get out of life what you put into it. I work hard to insure that my students reach their full potential. I push my s
