Kayla S - Bolton Landing, NY 12814 (2 mi) - Elementary Math Tutor - $36.50/hr.
I believe that every student has the ability to learn but through different approaches. Not every child learns the same way. I am very patient, easy going and considerate. I feel that through an educator's passion and knowledge that children can exceed expectations. I work diligently and carefully in order to maintain a high level of success that I hold for my students as well as myself. I strive to make a difference in all my students lives. I believe that you can change a child's outcome in life through a better education. As a recent graduate, I was driven to achieve a high level of excellence.

Jennifer S - Chestertown, NY 12817 (7.2 mi) - Elementary Math Tutor - $41.00/hr.
I'm very eager to teach. I love to be able to help children succeed and learn new things. I do whatever it takes to make this happen, and adjust my style as needed for each student. I like to make a difference, especially through education. After receiving my bachelor's degree, I went to school part time to work on my Master's degree while subbing in area schools. I accepted a position as a teaching assistant, and two long term positions. I also tutored a junior high school student in all subjects.

Michelle S - Lake Luzerne, NY 12846 (11.1 mi) - Elementary Math Tutor - $46.00/hr.
It is my sincere hope that all of my students will feel empowered not only with knowledge, but with self-esteem, self-confidence, and self-determination. Recognizing that children learn differently, I make a conscious effort to develop lessons that not only appeal to each child’s sense of fun, but also appeal to his or her style of learning. I also like to encourage students to make their own discoveries and to construct their own knowledge. My desire to teach is driven by the knowledge that teachers have a tremendous opportunity to make a difference in the lives of their students. It is with this knowledge and with an open mind and heart that I approach my teaching. Currently, I hold certifications in both Early Childhood Education and Childhood Education 1-6. This summer (2010), I will also be receiving my Master’s in Reading and obtaining an additional certification in Literacy.

Denise E - Queensbury, NY 12804 (12.4 mi) - Elementary Math Tutor - $48.00/hr.
While at West Chester University, I had to take Statistics and Probability and that was because I was in the excelled Math program in high school. I had all Math courses up to and including Advanced Algebra. While attending Adirondack Community College, I had to take a Medical Math course that covered many conversions. I love teaching and working with children and adults. I, myself have achieved a high level of excellence in education by completing two degrees and plan on completing my BS in Nursing. I believe in teaching through demonstration and by providing an optimal atmosphere for learning. I strive to make a difference in other peoples' lives and that is why I chose to become a nurse.

Kaitlin K - Queensbury, NY 12804 (13.1 mi) - Elementary Math Tutor - $49.00/hr.
I very much enjoy teaching both children and young adults. It gives me great satisfaction in helping others achieve a higher level of knowledge and skills. In addition, I feel that tutoring is a two-way street, whereby both the student learns material from the tutor, while at the same time the tutor learns how to better present the material in a way that is conducive for the student's learning. As such I strive to create a teaching environment that is both welcoming, yet challenging. Lastly, when it comes to learning and teaching, I believe in perseverance. Not every student has the ability to comprehend and retain everything all at once. Therefore as a tutor I would strive to instill this quality in my students. Having received both my undergraduate and graduate degrees from Cornell University and the University of California in the area of physical science (Atmospheric Science),

Michael H - Queensbury, NY 12804 (13.2 mi) - Elementary Math Tutor - $42.00/hr.
Throughout my four years at Siena College i have been involved in the tutoring done by the Siena College physics club. this tutoring has been all general and specific fields of math and science. I have covered such fields as math through differential equations, general physics through relativity and modern, and general chemistry. I also have knowledge of advanced physics courses such as solid state physics, electrodynamics, advanced mechanics, and quantum mechanics. teaching is something that, to me, is unique when dealing with science education. When dealing with science there are many different ways of looking at the same problem. It is important for the student to keep his or her view of the problem and to work off of that view, rather than to change the view to the teachers. This makes it much more interesting for the teacher to adapt to the different ways of learning for each studen

Jennifer P - Glens Falls, NY 12801 (15 mi) - Elementary Math Tutor - $36.50/hr.
My own learning style is a combination of visual and auditory, which has led me to believe flexibility is key. There is no one “best” method which works for all students, so my primary job is to help the student teach me the way he or she learns best. My aim in tutoring, regardless of learning style, is to increase understanding to a point where my student can not only perform the desired action, but also “teach” the concept back to me without assistance. I believe once mastery of a concept has reached this point, it forms a solid, lasting foundation for the next one. Just as I am bringing up my children to be independent adults, my goal for my students is to help them gain methods of learning so that my services are no longer needed. As a young woman aspiring to become a veterinarian, I attained both a BS in Biology and an AAS in Veterinary Technology. I enjoyed tutoring fellow stu

Jennifer S - Gansevoort, NY 12831 (17.4 mi) - Elementary Math Tutor - $47.00/hr.
I have a BS in Elementary Education with a GPA of 3.86 and a MS in Special Education with a GPA of 3.93. I value education and I have had a lot of experience with it. During graduate school I completed two six-month internships working full time in the classroom. I have spent the past three years as a substitute teacher in local schools. I was hired by a school district for two two-month long-term substitute positions. I was also hired as a private tutor for two students who were suspended from school. During my undergrad I worked as a tutor at a local high school and was a math tutor at my college. Working in the education field is a dream come true for me. I love every minute of it. I have a love of learning and I enjoy sharing that with others and helping my students turn into life-long learners. I understand that all students do not learn the same way and that one teaching a

Kimberly C - Argyle, NY 12809 (18.3 mi) - Elementary Math Tutor - $35.00/hr.
My teaching experience includes a wide variety of situations. I have been fortunate to have had the opportunity to work with children in grades kindergarten, one, two, three and four in a number of educational models, including multi-age groupings, departmentalized models and the traditional classroom. In addition to my work with younger students, I have tutored high school and college students, as well as adult learners in the areas of language and writing. My approach to teaching relies heavily on the use of modeling. Modeling is a powerful tool in the development of not only writing and language skills, but also in exposing my students to a framework which will allow them to hone their own thought processes and work habits. Incorporating a wide variety of vocabulary-building activities into daily lessons strengthens my students' understanding of the subject area and provides a fam

Mary C - Saratoga Springs, NY 12866 (26.5 mi) - Elementary Math Tutor - $48.50/hr.
I am an educator with a repertoire of abilities that I will continually seek to hone. At the core is my ability to create a safe and nurturing environment for all of my students in which they can grow and learn. Each of my students will be a better person for knowing me and I will be a better person for knowing each of my students.
After being a paralegal for nearly 18 years, I obtained a Master’s of Science in Education. I am currently pursuing an additional certification in Special Education. I pride myself on excellent teacher/student rapport. I utlize diverse assessment techniques in order to achieve maximum learning by the students. I understand the importance of determining a child's intrinsic/extrinsic motivators.
I believe that a teacher may indeed be the center toward which the students will gravitate. However, I perceive my role of teacher as one of guidance.

Wayne S - Greenfield Center, NY 12833 (26.7 mi) - Elementary Math Tutor - $45.00/hr.
I am a graduate of SUNY-Binghamton (BS - Mathematics). I have tutored students throughout college and on the side during my careeer as an IT Professional. I am also a sub-math teacher within the Saratoga Springs CSD. I have had much success with my style of tutuoring, and take much pride and personal satisfaction as a result. I listen carefully to how children approach a problem, and follow their through process in determining a solution. I often guide them towards the correct way (or possible several ways) of approaching a problem, as opposed to just giving an answer, etc.
I also use analogies a lot when helpingh them analyze a given problem, a demonstrate how an approach can be used to solve similar problems.

Kristen S - Saratoga Springs, NY 12866 (27.7 mi) - Elementary Math Tutor - $48.00/hr.
I believe that teaching is in my blood, as many of my family members were educators. I truly love teaching children and take great pride in my work. All children are different and I take the time and use my expertise to get to know how each student can be successful in the classroom. I am easy going and I am able to develop great rapport with all of my students and their parents. I am a hands on teacher and use manipulatives to help the students understand the concept of the skills being taught. I believe my teaching style has helped many students achieve great academic success. My goal as a teacher is to have every student reach their potential. I am a very driven person. I have both a Bachelor and Master degree. These degrees have given me the skills to be able to teach students the best that I can. I have taught 2nd-5th grade. I love teaching all students and have extensive

Michele H - Saratoga Springs, NY 12866 (28.1 mi) - Elementary Math Tutor - $41.00/hr.
I love teaching and working with all children. I believe all children can learn, but each in different ways. I am a firm believer in teaching through discovery and in providing a creative approach to learning that appeals to all styles of learning. I believe all children can meet their potential if they are given the appropriate surroundings and learning experiences. Currently, I work for the Saratoga Springs and Ballston Spa school districts as a home instructor for grades 6 to 12. I enjoy working with the kids one on one and feel wonderful about helping them stay up to date with their school work until they are physically able to return to the regular classroom setting. Aside from home instruction, I also work regularly as a substitute for Saratoga County schools, and have built up a great working relationship with all faculty and students in each building that I am assigned.
