Laura M. - Poughkeepsie, NY 12601 (25.3 mi) - Social Studies Tutor - $42.50/hr.
Hands on learning, use of technology, books, group learning, creative role play of different ways to solve problems. Many years of experience teaching, working, and tutoring children of all ages. Every child learns in a different way. I want to be able to find the best way and help children have fun while learning. It is important to establish what learning method works best for a child before teaching can take place. A child will be successful if they are having fun and learning in a style that they feel comfortable with.

Amy S. - Wappingers Falls, NY 12590 (30.8 mi) - Social Studies Tutor - $50.00/hr.
I have taught in the education field since 1999. I am very fortunate to have had the privilege of working with a multitude of learners in a variety of environments. Early in my career I worked with adults that were mentally and physically challenged. I found this very rewarding and decided to pursue a degree in education, which lead me on my journey into the world of Special Education. I began working with children and young adolescents who had a variety of special needs and learning styles; I went on to specialized Autism and Special Education for K-12. After working with young children for many years I decided to branch out to work with young adolescents and adults pursuing their high school equivalency. Working with young adolescents and adults proved to be just as rewarding as working with small children. Helping someone achieve a life long dream of obtaining their high school diplom

Melinda M - West Hurley, NY 12491 (3.5 mi) - Social Studies Tutor - $46.00/hr.
I believe that all children are born with great potential. My job, as a tutor, is to help young people achieve their best. I am patient, considerate and an excellent listener. I believe that once children recognize their own potential they will strive to succeed. A good educator can make a world of difference to a child. I strive to make a difference in all of my students' lives. Since completing my BA in English (with a minor in Communication), I have been responsible for teaching children and adults in a variety of settings ranging from museums to the classroom. I also earned an MA in Public History and, as such, learned extensive grammatical skills and became a strong writer. I would value the opportunity to help your child succeed in preparing for college.

Robert D - Lake Katrine, NY 12449 (8.5 mi) - Social Studies Tutor - $45.50/hr.
Most of my career has been spent at IBM, where I built on my Physics background for a broad range of opportunities. I am now seeking to move into a teaching career and plan to start a Masters in Teaching in the Fall of 2009. During my educational development, I taught for three years in undergraduate and graduate school as part of the duties of a teaching Assistant. I have tutored secondary school students for the last 5 years in Math, Physics, and Chemistry. I enjoy helping students understand the principles they are dealing with, rather than focusing on helping them simply "get the answer" to the problem at hand. My goal is for them to be able to generalize the concept and apply it in different contexts. To develop interest, I seek to discuss related information or similar problems as much as possible. For Physics in particular, this approach is key to providing a sound foundatio

Kimberly B - Tillson, NY 12486 (14.1 mi) - Social Studies Tutor - $44.00/hr.
As a graduate student, I understand what it is like to be both a student and a teacher. I believe that understanding is the key to enjoying learning and retaining knowledge. As a tutor I always strive to make the material accessible to the student as well as focusing on each students’ individual strengths and abilities. I also teaching studying and organizational skills. I have often found that when students complain that they are studying long hours without results, it is because they need to learn to study differently. I have a Bachelor of Arts degree from Boston University in International Relations, with a focus on business and economics as well as a second B.A. in Art History. I am currently earning my Masters in psychology at SUNY New Paltz.
I have been tutoring since my own high-school days but more recently have experience working in the tutoring center at Boston Univer

Lauren E - New Paltz, NY 12561 (18.5 mi) - Social Studies Tutor - $51.00/hr.
I do not have a lot of experience in the teaching field but I am a natural born teacher. I have been a mentor to many people in my life; friends, co-workers, even family members would say the same. If given the opportunity I will be able to grow with and enjoy the success of all my students. We will indulge in the passion of education! I am a very interactive, do-it-yourself kind of educator. There is nothing more liberating and inspiring than understanding and recognizing the limitlessness of one's own ability. With just the right push from me, our children can reach unbeleivably great heights!

Susan W - New Paltz, NY 12561 (18.6 mi) - Social Studies Tutor - $48.00/hr.
I have enjoyed the written word my entire life. I have written poetry, screenplays, short stories, advertising copy, grants, business plans, marketing plans, newsletters and press releases. My understanding of grammar and syntax is second nature to me. I have tutored children in English (reading and writing) for more than 15 years. I love children for their unabashed honesty. I treat them with respect and do my utmost to listen deeply to their needs. I'm a very patient, detail-oriented person and frequently use humor to create an environment that the child finds is fun in which to learn and one where both mentor and child have mutual respect. A willingness/openness to learn the challenging subjects is key on the child's part. It is a joy to help a child learn and watch them grow more confident in the process.

Stephanie M - New Paltz, NY 12561 (19.9 mi) - Social Studies Tutor - $47.00/hr.
I received my Bachelor of Science degree in Biology from the State University of New York at SUNY New Paltz and I have matriculated into the Master of Arts in Biology program at the same university. As a result of my many research and laboratory reports I have excellent writing and typing skills and have completed many writing assignments including numerous essays in various fields as a requirement of completing my Bachelor of Science degree. Because I have coursework at the graduate level in the field of biology, I have taught at the college level and will continue to do so next semester, so I have roughly 1 year of experience teaching students. I have several years experience working with children and adults in the education field. The students I have taught at the college level ranged from late teens to early 30s. As I have worked with such a wide range of ages I am familiar with
