Amanda J - Binghamton, NY 13905 (5.1 mi) - American History Tutor - $49.00/hr.
I attended several schools to achieve my undergraduate degrees, both of which I worked hard to excel at the University level. Attending graduate school at Binghamton University truly prepared me for academia, requiring many research papers and essays as well as honing my knowledge in psychology, the arts, human development, english, and biology. I have tutored, un-officially, all during my college years, forming study groups to better help my peers, as well as having volunteer positions tutoring in math and english. I love to teach and see the ideas light up the eyes of the person who suddenly got a concept. I think teaching should be adaptable and should fit the learning style of the student. Visual tasks, memory games, and hands-on-learning are, in my opinion, the best way to help someone truly learn (versus rote memory). I think that with the right guidance and put in the right e

Selena C - Oxford, NY 13830 (21 mi) - American History Tutor - $45.50/hr.
I hold a Bachelor of Arts in English Literature with a minor in journalism from Oswego State University. While in school I studied psychology and child development as well as great works of literature. I have always had a knack for grammar and spelling and I enjoy proofreading documents and helping others to develop their ideas. I am familiar with many books in literary canon and I am interested in reading other books that teachers are including in their curriculum. Although I have no formal teaching experience, I do have been developing my teaching style for many years while I worked with the developmentally disabled. I learned to identify a teachable moment, which is a time at which the student would be most receptive to learning. As a tutor, I would create those moments and boost confidence by encouraging the student to explore the subject in the way that is most interesting to them.

Sarah M - Mount Upton, NY 13809 (26.3 mi) - American History Tutor - $51.50/hr.
After graduating from high school as valedictorian, I earned a Zoology BS and a Studio Art BA from SUNY Oswego, successfully completing English composition, speech, visual arts, biology, zoology, chemistry, Spanish, and calculus II courses, and graduated with a 3.76 GPA. Prior, I had taken and earned over a 90% in algebra, geometry, trigonometry, and AP calculus. While completing an MFA from WCSU, I began 3 years of service as a tutor with NY GEAR UP of The Research Foundation of SUNY, providing academic assistance to students, grades 9-12th in core and non-core subjects, as well as Regents, SAT, and ACT exam prep. In the last 2 years, I have taught art for levels EC-8th and created a teen development program with daily tutoring. I believe that one key to successfully helping children of all ages to learn, is a positive and encouraging atmosphere. Since every child learns differently

Stephanie H - Guilford, NY 13780 (26.5 mi) - American History Tutor - $49.50/hr.
While attending a small private university in upstate New York, I pursued a degree in Chemistry with a minor in English. I excel in all parts of the scientific discipline, receiving perfect marks in Chemistry, Physics, and Biology. In addition to direct courses in Algebra and Calculus, I used mathematics on a daily basis in the upper level Chemistry courses. Also, I achieved top marks in General Writing, Technical Writing, Public Speaking and Literature courses. I am confident that my grammar and diction are more than adequate. I am a published author, having written many articles related to horses, chemistry, and movies. I enjoy helping students of all ages learn. Education lays the groundwork for every goal that one aspires to in life. I love the English language and words. I feel that it is important for every student to come away with at least a basic understanding of how to write an

David T - norwich, NY 13815 (27.7 mi) - American History Tutor - $48.00/hr.
I have always wanted students to really know the material being covered. This has meant keeping their interest through jovial yet concentrated lesson planning. I have always strived to make my students feel comfortable and to take on the responsibility for their own learning. Much too often Educators show students how to answer questions rather than helping the student learn how to handle new scenarios. This is the essence of my teaching: helping students see the big picture so that they can handle any new scenario. My classroom always has many things going on at once, which is a direct result of the student driven learning and presenting. I received my Bachelor's degree in 1989 and worked as an assistant engineer in Binghamton NY until I started my masters program at SUNY Cortland. I have held Physics, Earth science, Chemistry and Biology appointments in the years that followed in a

Suzanne C - Brooktondale, NY 14817 (28.3 mi) - American History Tutor - $46.00/hr.
As an undergraduate, I spent nearly three years assisting groups of students with how to learn content for the historically difficult courses of College Chemistry I and II. I have my BS in Nuclear Medicine Technology, which permitted me to learn and acquire a great understanding in multiple areas. These areas include biology, anatomy, physiology, chemistry, algebra, statistics, and beginning and intermediate levels of Spanish . In February 2011, I will be finished my MBA in Healthcare Management, which has broadened my knowledge in business courses, such as economics, accounting, marketing and finance. Throughout my education, I have mastered grammatical skills with the many research papers, essays, and lab reports that I have written. I would be happy to assist students with any courses necessary, as I am confident I can help them learn. I possess strong interpersonal skills which would

Daphne R - Brooktondale, NY 14817 (28.9 mi) - American History Tutor - $45.00/hr.
My goal is to instill habits and skill sets in my students that change learning from a laborious, anxiety ridden process to a spontaneous and empowering one. We learn most from our mistakes, and so therefore, there is no such thing as failure. A one on one session gives a student the necessary attention, and connection, to a mentor that can make the difference. Grades are earned so the successful completion of an assignment is a real accomplishment. Learning is cumulative; self-mastery will come through time and consistent effort. I view teaching as integral to my life, and I am passionate about giving an exceptional education to people. I currently teach academic writing at Tompkins Cortland Community College, and Purchase College. In addition, I have over 15 years experience teaching acting to children, teens and young adults.

Melinda P - Norwich, NY 13815 (29.5 mi) - American History Tutor - $44.00/hr.
I love to educate children of many ages I have a 4 year old and a 2 year old in the house. You teach many different aspects of life, not just academically. Being a tutor for grades 6-8 was different because they had the basics. They needed to be informed and focused. Substitute teaching grades K-8 was rather different because the children acted as though they haven't learned anything, so you had to make them feel comfortable. I love teaching with repetition and visual. With patience, understanding, and love a child can learn anything. I am a well round person; strong in geography and Latin American history. With my BA in Geography I would be able to help out with Physcial, World, GIS(Mapping) and Latin American History classes (12 cr.) Resent knowledge in medical terminology, medical office ethics, privacy, billing and coding. Most of my career has been in GIS (Geographic Information Sy

Nicole D - Cortland, NY 13045 (29.8 mi) - American History Tutor - $49.00/hr.
I have worked as a pre-school teacher for two years in Syracuse, NY, where I was motivated to enter into the field of education on a permanent basis. I went back to school to attain my masters degree in education in 2008, and finished student teaching in December of 2009. I am accustomed to teaching children from various backgrounds, and learning styles. I am eager to initiate a career in education and serve the students in the greater Cortland county area. I love teaching, working, and playing with children. I believe that children learn most effectively from using both a hands and minds-on learning/teaching style. As all children come from differing/diverse backgrounds, I utilize communication with both the students and parents in order to effectively teach said child. I believe that all children have the potential for growth and success in the classroom and beyond, if they are gi

Kimberly C - Ithaca, NY 14850 (34.3 mi) - American History Tutor - $46.50/hr.
I have experience across the boards. I have taught students from the first grade level to the college level. I have earned a BA and an MA, both in Physics with a focus on education, but opted to take all of my electives in Math and Earth Science, which has enabled me to have a further reaching range of abilities. I did a minor in history for the purpose of understanding not only the science of my work, but also where the science came from. This has enabled me to not just teach science and math but also teach it through a historical lens that gives students perspective on why their learning is relevant. I like children to learn through exploring. This is not to say that I do not teach, but I plan lessons in a way that allows students to learn at their own pace. I feel like if I can put together a lesson that gives children a motivation to learn, they will learn on a deeper level tha

Donald H - Ithaca, NY 14850 (34.6 mi) - American History Tutor - $44.50/hr.
As a lifelong student of the humanities and English, I believe that the best way to learn is by teaching and helping others. As a result, whenever and wherever I have been, whether in academia, work environments, or with friends and family, I have sought to apply what I know by teaching. I have many years of experience teaching others, especially in the areas of English (extremely talented writer), history (specializing in world history and the history of empires), social science (with a focus on psychology and sociology) and philosophy. I find no greater thrill in life than when, as a result of my teaching and assistance, the light comes on over the student's head. Beyond pay and self-achievement, this is the true joy for any teacher. One of the advantages of my background is the variety of people I have worked with. Regardless of different cultures, races, socioeconomic background

Changhao Y - Ithaca, NY 14850 (34.8 mi) - American History Tutor - $47.50/hr.
As a Cornell graduate of Biomedical Engineering, I was able to learn about a variety of subjects and gain a better understanding of multiple types of math and science. As an instructor for the Cornell ballroom dance team, I have taught classes for two years in addition to my tutoring in math and science for another two years. I have written up multiple laboratory reports and research papers as well as a final Master's project. My students enjoy my teaching style and I would be happy to be your instructor. I really enjoy working with all people, I understand that everyone has a learning style, but above all you have to work hard to get to the next level. I am patient, thoughtful and willing to offer my support. I think it's important to summarize the important parts of the subject and then have the student remember them and focus on how to manipulate those parts into useful problem s
