I develop specific lessons based on my students' needs and interests and I also help with teacher-assigned work. I have been a classroom teacher for grades 7, 10, 11 and 12.
I help with whatever homework is assigned by the teacher. I also develop my own lessons based on the needs and interests of my students. I ALWAYS try to keep them entertained and excited about their learning.

I have worked in the educational field for 25 plus years now. My first experience in the profession was in the mid-80's as a private tutor for junior high and high school students. I was also hired by my town and a neighboring town to provide homebound instruction. Subject areas I was responsible for included social sciences, American and world history, mathematics and English. Upon completion of my certification requirements I was employed at a small private school. The school specialized in assisting students with learning and developmental disabilities. During the evenings I worked in the adult education program of a local town. Subject areas I taught were civics, English as a second language and external diploma program. My school also sent me to receive training and be the representative in the "Newspapers in Education" program. I am currently employed as an adult education represen ... read more

My comments on tutoring Social Studies : Content can be very creative, when the teacher brings the facts to life and has the students play the historical roles.

I received my bachelor degree in elementary education. After having my two daughters, I went to graduate school and achieved a masters degree as a Reading Specialist. I was a graduate assistant and taught in a learning center for two years while earning my masters degree. Upon graduation I was an adjunct professor at C.W. Post, taught reading at a private school, a public school and then worked full time managing the reading department In an elementary school for eighteen years. During that time I had the opportunity to teach a support before school program, summer literacy as the lead teacher, creating my curriculum and a Saturday Academy in the middle school teaching study skills and test prep.
My teaching style is very structured due to my training, however, I can be extremely creative and motivating with the most challenging students!

Believe in yourself, and you are half-way there!

I have a Bachelor of Science in Biology and a minor in Chemistry. I love being able to help students feel comfortable with the material they are studying. I have tutored numerous times throughout college, and would like to get back into tutoring students because I find it to be rewarding. As a student who went from living in Germany and being taught that there are many ways of getting the right answer, to moving to America where everything is taught in one way, I have learned to incorporate my tutoring skills to the need of each individual student. I try to figure out what works best for every individual and help them focus on their strength and improve their weaknesses.
My teaching style depends on the student. I am comfortable with trying different study methods in order to figure out why my student is having trouble with a particular subject.

Teaching children has been a rewarding experience for me for a long time. I truly believe that every child is capable of learning with a little bit of patience and understanding.

A Little Bit About Me...

I am a NYS Certified Elementary School Teacher, currently working as a Staff Developer for Eastern Suffolk BOCES, training administrators and teachers to make data-driven instructional decisions, especially as these data relate to student performance on the NYS Assessments. My most recent classroom experience is at the early childhood level, where I have been the Lead Teacher in a pre-kindergarten classroom, and previously, the Director of a small, private nursery school. I spent a year facilitating a homework help group for school-age children at a local homeless shelter, and have 7 years experience preparing high school students for the SAT's. I have also tutored in GRE and LSAT for post-secondary students.

A Little Bit About Me...

I love opening students' eyes to the wonders of science. It is my experience that a student can learn anything, even the most complicated scientific theories, if the teacher is patient and engaging. In teaching, I find the key to unlocking the minds of the students is to find the appropriate analogy or metaphor. If a teacher can aptly relate a concept the student doesn’t understand to one that the student does understand, not only will the student learn the new concept, they will be far less likely to forget it in the future. I find this method to be effective in teaching concepts as complicated as quantum physics, and in teaching concepts as non-intuitive as learning how to play a drum roll.
While earning my undergraduate degree in Physics, I took advantage of a work-study opportunity at Franklin and Marshall and became a Physics and Chemistry Tutor for the introductory classe ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I enjoy teaching and working with children. I believe children learn in different ways. It is incumbent on the teacher to mold his/her skills to the child's natural way of learning. I am available to help your child find academic success. My goal is to provide the best education possible. I am a firm believer in teaching through discovery where the child finds the answer. I believe all children can meet their potential if they are given the appropriate surroundings and learning experiences. A few good educators can make a world of difference in a child's education. I strive to make a difference in all of my students' lives.
As a college graduate, I was very much driven to achieve a high level of excellence in education. I have a bachelor degree in Management and an MBA in Finance, which has enabled me to gain an understanding in many areas of math. In addition, I have learned ... read more

I elected to be a stay at home mom after a successful career. I wanted a flexible work schedule and thought about tutoring. I found that I loved tutoring students ranging from elementary to college level. I found much satisfaction in students' improved grades and the mastery of the subject that I was able to impart. I strongly believe that education is the doorway to a successful career and tough subjects such as math and science can be mastered with the right approach.
I like to use the hands on approach. I find out what the weaknesses are of my students and address the topics by giving a general review. I present a problem for them to work out. After a few minutes, I ask them what they think is the best way to approach the problem. If they cannot come up with one, I then guide them through the appropriate thinking pattern in order for them to solve the problem. For me repetition ... read more
