Garrett D - Cobleskill, NY 12043 (4.5 mi) - Social Studies Tutor - $48.50/hr.
I try to highlight a students strengths and build solid study habits and work patterns. For instance, if a student has trouble focusing on his/her work, I try to push them for short periods of intense study, and then reward them with a break.
Since my first degree was completed through an integrated, online program, I stress organizational skills. If I feel that a student is having an issue with organization, I explain to them how much it helps me to organize and then we address the issues they might be having. Currently pursuing my second Bachelor's degree, I have been exposed to a wide variety of curriculum. I excel in teaching the required level of High School and College level mathematics and also have an aptitude for academic, technical, and narrative writing. I have tutored for the past year at the Center for Academic Support and Excellence at SUNY Cobleskill. We provide academ

Lee L - Richmondville, NY 12149 (5.8 mi) - Social Studies Tutor - $43.00/hr.
I have worked with Middle School age youth for almost a decade. I am Site Coordinator at an after school program & run a science focused club there. I also occasionally help the students who have been removed from our Homework Room with a number of subjects. I enjoy imparting my knowledge to my students via a variety of hands on learning activities and have always been a keen math, science and language arts student myself. Throughout school, I also played every woodwind instrument except the Oboe. While in college, I took every Agricultural Education class offered, as it is my intended area of post graduate study, and gained a grasp of educational psychology, classroom management and lesson planning. I am a strong believer in mastering a topic as opposed to spitting out the correct response. I also believe in finding one’s main learning style and teaching to it, not that of the masses. T

Suzanne G - Richmondville, NY 12149 (6 mi) - Social Studies Tutor - $52.50/hr.
My love for teaching and working with children has allowed me to learn a variety of ways to help my students learn. Through the use of audio, visual and tactile manipulatives, my students have had some very exciting experiences and have succeeded in meeting the objectives set for them. I do believe in setting high expectations for each child and my experience has shown me that they rise to the occasion. My decision to become a pedagogue was due to the fact that I had wonderful teachers in my life who were supportive, kind and thoughtful. They inspired me to want to learn more and want to give more. I strive to make a difference in the life of my students also. As an educator, seeking excellence in the public and private sectors, I have been afforded the opportunity to work with students in Elementary up through Middle and High Schools as a pedagogue and tutor. I have earned my BA in Prim

Morgan K - Sharon Springs, NY 13459 (7.8 mi) - Social Studies Tutor - $47.50/hr.
While I am not a teacher by profession, I spent much time in the academic support center at SUNY Cobleskill as a freshman tutoring students in different kinds of math. (ie: algebra,fractions, etc) and occasionally in english and science. I also had to lead several class discussions at grad school at times, teaching the readings or materials for that week. This included presentations and answering questions from the audience.
However, my main interest would be in math or english (ie: reading and writing) because over the years I have found these to be invaluable tools. My academic background includes a combination of math,science and english classes. Over the years I have found math and reading/writing to be important skills and they were amongst the most useful tools I had ever learned. Over the years it has served we well and I enjoy teaching the material to younger people while explai

Jarrett R - Central Bridige, NY 12035 (9 mi) - Social Studies Tutor - $44.00/hr.
I enjoy demonstrating skills and processes and then as a coach/guide in helping students develop and apply these skills and knowledge. I show the students how to properly do a task or work through a problem and then I'll help them master the task or problem solution. It's important that the students can independently solve similar problems by using and adapting demonstrated methods. I encourage student participation. As we work together I’ll learn what best works for them and adjust to their personal learning styles. Most of my work experience was gain as a teacher’s aide.I work in a self contained classroom.I worked with students in small groups or individually.I would grade and enter grades for the teacher.I took students to Physical Education by myself.I organize and prepare the learning material for the week.I taught science and computer skills portion of the classroom.Each student g

Connie S - Middleburgh, NY 12122 (10.3 mi) - Social Studies Tutor - $49.50/hr.
I teach the way I counsel--by expecting self-responsibility. I use humor to enhance one's motivation to seek out and focus on one's strengths. I am not a coddler--I believe that higher expectations result in higher performance. When coupled with empathy, faith in the individual and strong foundations of skills, success is inevitable. I have been supervising other counselors since 1997 in their report-writing. I take pride in my writing skills in the face of a field riddled with nurses who prefer abbreviations to beautifully executed coherent sentences. The sheer eloquence of being able to deliver a report allowing the reader to infer the true meaning of your words, while not providing any statements that will give fuel to a legal representative is a time-earned skill.
In addition to my writing skills, I have 14 years of business skills, extensive analytical skills, which transfe

Ashley A - Worcester, NY 12197 (11.5 mi) - Social Studies Tutor - $43.50/hr.
As a Siena College graduate I developed a very hands on approach to active learning. Through classroom lecture and instruction I've completed the necessary coursework to complete my BS of biology. Due to my strong work ethic I've gained knowledge and skills in the physical sciences, as well as in other subject areas. During my college years I subbed as teacher at a public K-12 school. During that time I taught a variety of grade levels, and worked as a one-on-one aide. I believe that in order to succeed in teaching and being an educator you must inspire those that you are teaching. A child who is excited to learn, will do much better. I feel a hands on approach is best, guiding the child to personal success.

sandra c - fort plain, NY 13339 (14.6 mi) - Social Studies Tutor - $44.50/hr.
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.

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 at the time that I owed it to my own children to wait. I had the opportunity to study abroad, and gained valuable language skills. I substitute taught at all grade levels for 2 years before returning to work full time. I currently tutor an tenth grade cohort in math, science, social studies, and English. I also plan and implement college field trips so that students gain valuable exposures to higher education. 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. E

Merri B - Johnstown, NY 12095 (19.3 mi) - Social Studies Tutor - $48.00/hr.
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. 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.

Katelyn B - Johnstown, NY 12095 (19.8 mi) - Social Studies Tutor - $47.50/hr.
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. First and foremost, I believe teaching is my calling. I have known that I wanted to be a teacher since the 4th grade, and my goals were achieved when I graduated with my MA in Aug
