John C. - Derby, NY 14047 (3.9 mi) - Political Science Tutor - $37.50/hr.
I have vast knowledge of the political system. I try to engage my student, to tease the learning out of him or her. I have learned to explain, to give the information then to step back, allowing my student to think through to the conclusion. This involves silence sometimes, and the student talking more while I talk less, something not so easy for a teacher of Italian descent. Experiences has shown, however, that it often works. 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, an

robin c. - Hamburg, NY 14075 (10.4 mi) - Political Science Tutor - $40.00/hr.
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. I enjoy my work and love to see the results of the students I work wit

Karen M - Orchard Park, NY 14127 (15.2 mi) - Political Science Tutor - $43.00/hr.
During my tenure at Buffalo State College, I volunteered at the Equal Opportunity Program, where my main strength was utilized by actively tutoring students in the art of the english essay.
I was able to tutor these students and advise them in the general format of the essay. We began by procurring a general introduction, or a statement of fact,followed by the body of the essay, descriptive references, and tying it all together with a summary that proves the point that you have set out to make. I tutored many different students, but it was apparent that most students who excelled in math and science, struggled with English writing requirements. I love opening up a child's mind to the love of the written word. The possibility of expressing one's private thoughts and experiences have the power to change lives for the better.
I have always been patient and understanding with children.

Elizabeth M - West Seneca, NY 14224 (17.7 mi) - Political Science Tutor - $44.00/hr.
The past year in Korea has opened my eyes to the enjoyment I can receive from teaching. It made me realize how wonderful American schools are in their understanding and development for children. I hope to cater to all the learning styles that children need so that they learn the information to the best of their ability. My goal is to have all the children understand all the options and possibilities that are out there so that can achieve their goals. As a graduate of a SUNY school I had the pleasure of studying with people from all walks of life. I earned a Bachelor in History which I find vital for the development of our modern world. My writing skills have been developing since my High School studies and it only prepared me for my college writing assignments. I worked in South Korea for one year teaching and tutoring student ranging from 5 years to 16 years old children. I was r

Kevin K - buffalo, NY 14213 (18 mi) - Political Science Tutor - $42.00/hr.
I was recognized for my teaching abilities during my undergraduate years, having been selected as a teaching assistant as a freshman for sociology courses.
As a graduate student, I spent much of my time as a teaching assistant and later as an instructor at the college level.
I spent several years reading and evaluating statewide public school exams in science, math and writing, while helping shape the questions asked by state exam boards for primary and secondary school students.
I became fluent in Spanish living and working in Central America and Mexico, as well as through immersion in Spanish speaking communities in the USA.
I am a published writer and editor in nonfiction writing. I have also published academic papers. I believe in finding methods appropriate to each student, depending on their level of development and interests. There is no simple way to help students

Nicolas M - Buffalo, NY 14222 (18.3 mi) - Political Science Tutor - $44.00/hr.
I graduated from Rutgers University Cum Laud, and with departmental honors in English. After completing my undergraduate degree I traveled to Chile where I taught English at three private academies from grades 8 to 12. In addition to teaching, I also achieved a moderate level of fluency in the Spanish language, as I lived and traveled in Latin America for approximately 3 years. I am currently a PhD candidate at SUNY Buffalo in Early Modern Literature. I am a College Fellow as well as a full-time teacher in the English Department where I teach one class a semester of both introductory and advanced composition. I am very much invested in both structured and intuitive teaching. I consistently try to instill in my students a sense of the dynamic interplay between these two facets of the production and maintenance of knowledge. I encourage them to know the inside of "the box", but to be

Michael T - Buffalo, NY 14209 (18.9 mi) - Political Science Tutor - $45.50/hr.
I’ve taught English and Theater at a variety of school settings for five years, including a self-contained classroom for “at risk” youth, an inner city arts magnet school, and a private alternative school for emotionally disturbed teens. In addition, I’ve taught Theater at the university and community college level for sixteen years. I believe that teachers are essentially translators of knowledge and skills for students to access in formats, which they can make their own. I am accustomed to teaching students of wide ranging levels of skill and ability. I am a trained actor and director in theater, and so I use dynamic techniques to immerse a student in an experience through which he/she can better understand academic content and their own internal perspectives and feelings. I have studied Shakespeare extensively and believe in using challenging forms of literature to expand student

James M - Fredonia, NY 14063 (19.5 mi) - Political Science Tutor - $52.00/hr.
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 create unde

Nicole P - Cheektowaga, NY 14227 (19.7 mi) - Political Science Tutor - $42.50/hr.
I also developed a positive behavior management system that teaches students responsibility and accountability. My system has reinforced my philosophy of teaching; students learn and work better when a positive environment surrounds them. Through my teaching experience, I have learned the importance of the relationship between the community and maintaining a positive classroom environment. As a student teacher I have had experience keeping parents involved with classroom activities and I believe that parental involvement is an important factor in creating effective teaching and learning for all students. Currently I am student teaching at Buffalo Public School #11, Poplar Street Academy. I lead small groups in the afternoon and use Harcourt Intervention to provide enrichment for struggling readers. I have been successful in pulling two of the five students up to benchmark level.

Michael C - Buffalo, NY 14216 (20.6 mi) - Political Science Tutor - $45.00/hr.
I have ten years experience teaching at the college undergraduate level at Canisius College, and five years at Hilbert College. I have been teaching Music History and Music Appreciation classes and always put the music into the social context in which it was produced. I have also taught World Music and Afro-Centric classes and again, place the content in its social context.
Prior to this I had a number of years teaching Social Studies and English classes as a guest artist/musician in numerous area high schools. These have included both full classes and individual tutoring sessions.
I feel that all this experience puts me in an excellent position for tutoring in History, Social Studies, Humanities, English and Music. My background in music performances in a school setting has taught me to be able to connect with a student in a very direct and honest manner. Each student is different w

Norman M - Grand Island, NY 14072 (22.3 mi) - Political Science Tutor - $45.50/hr.
I ask those whom I have taught to prepare written material on a subject. I do not attempt to "change their style" but only to adapt their own thoughts to the correct English usage.
I also ask students to read their work aloud in order to impress upon them that the words must not only be "correct" but must sound like they are correct. Moreover, the ability to hear themselves speak their written words correctly gives each student a great deal of confidence. As an avid reader & writer, I have assisted many people in both written and spoken English. I instructed young people in the Army and as the owner of a small business. I have extensive experience in writing "White Papers" as the Deputy Director of Government and Community Affairs for the New York State National Guard.
I was very active in political campaigns and have written and delivered oral remarks to government officials at the hi
