Luciana F. - Cheektowaga, NY 14225 (4.7 mi) - American History Tutor - $40.00/hr.
I am a direct/explicit instructional teacher or instructor. Explicit instruction is broken up into stages that follow a sequence. The sequence of teaching/learning is as follows: first setting a purpose for learning, then telling students what to do, then showing them how to do it, and finally guiding them with hands-on application of the new item that was learned.
Reading Comprehension & Fluency Strategies:
Fluency-
1. Focus on phonemic and alphabetic awareness 2. Teaching the meaning of learning simple to complex words 3. Give strategies to increase the speed of students reading aloud
Comprehension-
I focus on the five close reading strategies that support Common Core learning.
1. Number the paragraphs that you will be reading
2. Chunk the text
3. Underline and circle with a purpose
4. Write in the margin what each paragraph is saying
5. Take a deeper look into w

Peter S. - Buffalo, NY 14225 (5.1 mi) - American History Tutor - $22.50/hr.
Experience in the study of British and American Literature, also have made a study of History in America and Britain as well during undergraduate coursework. During my Master's I studied British Literature and was a teaching assistant. During that time I spent two years teaching composition and argumentation at Bowling Green State University to cover college level essay writing which required both classroom and individual tutoring outside of class. Subjects for that course included a wide array of topics with a focus more on structure and the strength of the student's argument than the content or theme of the paper. I can handle any topic of essay writing as a result and will be able to bring out the core structural and grammatical needs for the paper.

alek o. - Buffalo, NY 14221 (7.8 mi) - American History Tutor - $30.00/hr.
I have presented lectures and am comfortable in front of others and take a very professional approach to the material. My goal is to not only have the student succeed with the material but to present it in a way that sparks their intellectual curiosities so that they go beyond in learning the material. I like to tutor others on a one to one basis so that they feel that the tutoring is more personal to them and that i am truly catering to their needs. I have worked as a student assistant for Dr. Peter F. Biehl (Department of Anthropology, Chair). In this position I have presented lectures and helped others with their projects. I have worked with INSA translating services in which I translated regents exams from russian to english and vice versa. I have also worked as a GRE tutor in math and english.

robin c. - Hamburg, NY 14075 (12 mi) - American History Tutor - $40.00/hr.
Teach multiple strategies and techniques for successful learning! 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 en

John C. - Derby, NY 14047 (14.4 mi) - American History Tutor - $37.50/hr.
I have taught American History throughout my career, I read a lot of history in my spare time. It is my love. 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 immi

Nicolas M - Buffalo, NY 14222 (1.3 mi) - American History 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 (1.4 mi) - American History 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

Kevin K - buffalo, NY 14213 (1.6 mi) - American History Tutor - $42.00/hr.
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 advance their learning, without a commitment to hard work and discipline.
Helping motivate students is a product of finding common ground between student and teacher.
Helping a student "see the light" in a subject of study is always exciting, and never gets old. 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
