Melissa S - Altamont, NY 12009 (7.9 mi) - Earth Science Tutor - $45.00/hr.
I am finishing up my Bachelors degree in Dietetics at SUNY Oneonta- I will be graduated in December. I have been offered positions as a chemistry tutor but denied because of my other jobs. I was a student mentor for a year in high school to students that were "slacking" or wasn't understanding one or more of their classes. I worked at Albany ARC and worked to train young adults and adults in the kitchen- which also included basic skills such as counting and reading. I really would like to help make a difference in someone's life and help them understand academics just like myself. When I try to teach someone, I always explain to them the subject as basic and simple as possible. I give a few examples, and then help them figure it out themselves. When/ if they struggle, I will be there to help set them back on track.

Jarrett R - Central Bridige, NY 12035 (7.9 mi) - Earth Science 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

Henry L - Schenectady, NY 12306 (10.3 mi) - Earth Science Tutor - $43.50/hr.
I am a graduate of Union College where I completed an advanced course of study in chemistry, participated in original research, and wrote an undergraduate thesis in order to obtain certification from the American Chemical Society. Before that, I attended Schenectady County Community College part time where I earned both an AS in Mathematics and Science and an AA in Humanities and Social Science. I have also studied the philosophy of science at the graduate level. This diverse educational background has furnished me with a wide variety of grammatical and clerical skills. I have previously tutored in a variety of subjects at the college level but have spent the most time in organic chemistry, earth sciences, and history. I love teaching and appreciate that subjects such as chemistry can be very difficult for young people. This difficulty is often present for two reasons. The first is

Andrea B - Schenectady, NY 12306 (10.6 mi) - Earth Science Tutor - $47.00/hr.
I don't think there is anything better than the feeling of helping a child learn. Every student have the ability to learn, we have to adapt our teaching styles so that all students can understand. Our job as teachers is to prepare students for their future. Through education and a caring, nurturing and creative teacher, that is what I hope to give all my students, a future. The brightest one possible. I began school as a Biology major for 2 years, so I have a great science background. I love to teach children. I finished my Masters program in December 07 and began teaching at the school I did my internship at, Briarcliff MS. I taught grades 6-8 and filled in for a Special Ed teacher at the end of the year. Also during that time I tutored a group of 6 graders in Math.

Dennis V - Amsterdam, NY 12010 (11.5 mi) - Earth Science Tutor - $50.00/hr.
Though applicable to any subject, for science and math I adhere to the inquiry method. I'm believe in the teacher finding something interesting in what is being taught, asking leading questions with which the students answer, and having the students learn through their answers.
Lecturing is my least favorite method, and I believe the least effective. I have tutored and did substitute teaching in Mathematics, Chemistry and Physics at several local schools.
I have taken several graduate courses in education including classes in methods and adolescence physiology. My philosophy of education is "Everyone is capable of learning something about anything as long as it's taught in a way that the student understands." These are my own words and I firmly believe them.
Currently I teach adults in square dancing and social dancing.
I also have a student with Literacy Volunteers of America

Christine C - Scotia, NY 12302 (11.6 mi) - Earth Science Tutor - $50.50/hr.
My teaching philosophy is focused on teachers being facilitators for students to construct their own knowledge and making learning relevant and purposeful to the students. When teaching, I think about each student's individual learning styles and adapt my lessons to fit those needs. I really try to make learning fun and make sure students understand why they are learning something. I feel that with those things in place, they will be more motivated to learn and continue to learn throughout their lives. That motivation enables students to think at higher levels and become independent thinkers. I attended SUNY Oneonta to attain a B.S. in Elementary Education. I had a concentration in General Science, so I have a broad knowledge-base of the subject. I am currently attending school to receive my Master's degree in Teaching Elementary Mathematics. While attending school, I peer tutored

Kathleen K - Schenectady, NY 12305 (11.8 mi) - Earth Science Tutor - $46.50/hr.
I've enjoyed working with students of all ages, background and grade level in coursework such as Math,Science,Computer and Engineering courses from seventh grade through undergraduate college. By teaching concepts rather than memorization skills that usually bore the student I work with each student and their own "easiest way" of learning to increase skills and self-confidence. I'm dedicated to each individual student and will work hard with each to improve their coursework through study habits, homework assignments and test preparation. I believe these valuable skills will open doors for each student throughout their lives. I am a graduate of elecrical engineering and computer science with ABET accreditation. From early on in my studies I've enjoyed tutoring students of Mathematics,Computers,Technology,Science and Engineering courses. I've also conducted many science lab experiments an

Garrett D - Cobleskill, NY 12043 (12.5 mi) - Earth Science Tutor - $48.50/hr.
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 academic support to students with learning disabilities and emotional challenges, but it is also open to students just needing a little extra help. 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

Carli J - Schenectady, NY 12308 (12.8 mi) - Earth Science Tutor - $42.50/hr.
Beyond successfully navigating the education system, I have helped others achieve academically. In middle and high school, I peer-tutored Social Studies, Math, Science, and English. In college, I was a peer advisor in my department. In graduate school, I taught undergraduates scientific writing at the Writing Center. I also tutored graduate students in statistics. I then taught eight undergraduate courses as the primary instructor, including Statistics, Personality Theory, and Research Methods. Other professional experiences related to my graduate training in clinical psychology have contributed to my development as an instructor. I co-authored publications and presented at national conferences. Additionally, I conducted assessments with adults, children, and adolescents with learning challenges. The data were used to make individualized recommendations for studying, remediation, and acc
