Becoming a teacher has been one of my life's passions. I have earned a Bachelor of Science degree in Adolescent Education and Mathematics and am currently working on a Master of Arts degree in Education, Curriculum, Instruction, and Mathematics. I have experience in teaching an array of mathematics classes from 7th grade Math up to Calculus and College Algebra. I also have skills in literacy and writing due to the extensive time and effort I have put in for my masters program. In the last eight years, I have helped out in a 4th grade special needs classroom, spent countless hours tutoring math, english, and even some Spanish, and taught middle school, high school, and some college-entry-level mathematics courses.

I am very much a hands-on teacher, given that a lot of what I teach current needs to be done in order to fully comprehend the concepts being put to use. I am also a firm believer in fully explaining an idea, and constantly take multiple approaches to explain a concept so that it is understood fully by the student. As a person who has worked with students of various learning abilities both in lab and in the classroom, I find that it is very important to take a multi-pronged approach to teaching as all students are capable of learning if you present the information in the correct fashion.
I currently manage a research lab at Albany Medical College. During my tenure here in the past six years, I have been able to instruct techniques that I have learned and developed to other colleagues and students that have worked in the laboratory, even though my teaching experience began in high ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I believe it is essential to have the ability to adapt your teaching style to the student's skill set, especially when tutoring. My strength as a teacher comes from my ability to assess where each student has weaknesses and correct those weaknesses. I believe that with patience and hard work all students can learn and have positive educational experiences.
My experiences at Deerfield Academy (Deerfield, MA) gave me a passion to educate and mentor. I received my bachelor's degree from SUNY-Albany in Biology (2001). I began tutoring predominately high school students in 1998 in the areas of Mathematics(NYS Regents), Regents Biology and Chemistry. My success as a tutor led to a full-time teaching position at Gloversville High School (Gloversville, NY). My reputation at Gloversville created an opportunity for me as Science Department Chair at Hamilton-Fulton-Montgomery County BOC ... read more

Tutoring should be a tool used to complement traditional education. When tutoring there is little help in providing information to the student the same way that the teacher presents it. Tutors may also fall into the trap of simply giving the student the answers. For these reasons I prefer an holistic approach to tutoring. Every student is different and they all have different ways of understanding the material. As I am tutoring I keep in mind that I am also learning, keeping an open mind about the way a students is learning helps me to determine the best method of teaching the subject at hand.
I spent nine semester at FMCC in the TRiO Student Support Services program. I began as a part time tutor and after one semester the program director saw it prudent to keep me on. During my time with the program I helped to establish several tutoring programs, one at FM and another at Amsterda ... read more

Tutoring is one of my best skills, its just something I do well. I’ve tutored k-12 for Amsterdam, Gloversville and Johnstown in almost any subject, I have a strong math background particularly in algebra. I’m a good writer and do some freelance writing online at times. I have some experience with computer applications such as Photoshop, MS Publisher and PowerPoint. My BA. degree is in economics with a minor in business, I’ve completed some courses in graphic communications and have taken psychology on a graduate level. I’ve also homeschooled my own son for a year. He recently posted a 4.0 GPA at FMCC.
I enjoy tutoring enough to do it for free, which I have done for my friends from time to time. I’m a friendly laid back person who loves to learn and help others learn, particularly in a one on one setting. I’m quite good at breaking a subject down into an understandable step by step ... read more

I enjoy working with children and feel that they each have their own individual learning style. At times, I feel that conventional educational methods may fail some children. Educators must learn to be flexible, and allow students to learn in the style that they feel most comfortable. As a tutor, I feel that establishing a good rapport/friendship with my students before trying to "teach" them anything has been the most successful. If a child feels that you understand them and are interested and invested in their lives, you can become much more skillful at helping them to learn.
As a tutor, I owe the students in my cohort the very best! I am committed to providing our children with the very best educational quality that I can, and am constantly try to improve upon my own skills. I earned a BA in psychology from SUNY Albany, and began to pursue my Master's in Education, but felt a ... read more

I am currently a pre-k teacher in Albany, NY. I've taken many math courses, and feel extremely comfortable tutoring any level mathematics. I have experience tutoring, teaching, and being in numerous different educational settings. I recently graduated with my Masters in Integration of Technology K-8. I believe technology plays a major role in education and students enjoy learning with the aide of technology. I have tutored a child in my hometown, and believe that one-on-one time for a child is very effective. I also work for the state in the summer through the DEC, and started a junior naturalist program at the site. This program has been very successful and I enjoy every minute I am in the education setting.

I have devoted my life as a mother of three and as an educator. I have earned a BA in English and a Master's Degree in Special Education. In addition, I have dual certification in New York State. I am very knowledgeable in the areas of History, English, and Life Science. My students have a high success rate for passing New York State Regent's Exams.
I am a firm believer that all children can learn if given every option to be successful. In order to achieve success, students should be surrounded with tools to help them learn and a positive learning environment is key. Teachers should not expect all children to learn at the same pace nor same learning style. I never give up on my students. Students need teachers who do not accept failure and teach perseverance.

There is no one teaching style that works for all learners. It is important to provide a variety of learning styles to reach all the learners. Both inductive and deductive approches allow for children to discover and be creative which is exciting and rewarding for the learner and the teacher as well. I strive to make the learning experiece a lifetime endeavor not just a classroom activity. I love teaching and learning.
After College I spent 8 years at a College Prep School Schuyleville, NY where I taught NY State Regents Biology, Chemistry, Physics, and Algebra. I also taught Earth Science there and was a dorm supervisor. In 1980 I took a job with the NYS Division For Youth as a Math/Science teacher for incarcerated youth at risk in a residential program.

A Little Bit About Me...

I am a firm believer that tutoring students one-on-one is very beneficial and gives the student the added time and experience needed to excel in a certain subject. I also believe that each student has a different learning style which should be emphasized during tutoring sessions in order to make the learning experience easier,and more effective.
I have been a full time tutor for the SUNY Research Foundation for four years and have tutored students in grades 6-9 in the areas of english,history,math and science.I am presently located at the Fort Plain High School with the research foundation program.Before this, I was a substitute teacher for three years in the following areas:math, science, english and history. This was also at the high school level.
