Christopher S - Frankfort, NY 13340 (17.4 mi) - Sculpting Tutor - $48.50/hr.
I have always loved helping people, especially in the way of education. I believe that everyone learns differently, and therefore strive for diversity in teaching. I will exhaust all possible strategies, incorporating meaning and practice with all dimensions of learning to bring not only an undertanding of content, but an appreciation and means of applying newly gained knowledge in real world situations. Having completed my B.A. in Mathematics, with a minor in adolescent education, a Computer Science degree, and graduating with a 3.65 GPA, and a 4.0 in content has fueled my success. Combining that with presently finishing my Masters in Teaching with Technology, three years of teaching mathematics and 5 years of tutoring experience, in which I tutored several subjects I feel that I have a lot to add to the success of students. To go along with my education, I have completed several scienc

Christine W - Johnstown, NY 12095 (19.8 mi) - Sculpting Tutor - $45.00/hr.
I believe all children are creative and eager to learn. I enjoy the challenge of unlocking the avenue to their learning style. All children can succeed if given the tools for their personal style. As an educator I consider this my primary task. All learning comes naturally from that point on with effort and guidance.
My strong points are patience,understanding,creativity,and life long learning as an adult. I think the last point is extremely important as a tool for modeling the younger generations. This creates a relaxed instructor/student repoire while setting high unspoken expectations. Having graduated as an artist who expanded to art and elementary education I come from a diversified background. I have taught in the public,private and home schooled sectors. Being an accomplished artist and teacher I enjoy combining the two aspects of my abilities to create and foster the love of

I am a graduate of SUNY Oneonta. I graduated with honors in Childhood Education. I have a few years of experience. As a Substitute Teacher, I implemented the teachers desired lessons plans while implementing my own classroom discipline strategies. As a Preschool Teacher, I created my own lesson plans according to theme. I supervised two staff members as well as 15 children ages 3-5. I implemented my own classroom discipline strategies. I enjoy working and teaching with all children. I believe that all children can learn, but at different levels and abilities. I feel accomplished when I see that children finally understand a concept. I am patient and understanding of children. I believe that children should have more hands on activities brought into their education. I want to be that teacher they remember from thirty years from now. I want to make a difference in their lives.

Connie S - Middleburgh, NY 12122 (25.6 mi) - Sculpting Tutor - $49.50/hr.
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 transfer into expertise in geometry, and of course 20 years of experience as a counselor. 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

Heather A - Gloversville, NY 12078 (25.8 mi) - Sculpting Tutor - $48.00/hr.
In having a bachelors degree in Psychology, I have been fortunate enough to have worked at various places, all in which have dealt with constant interaction with people. I have had a great deal of experience substitute teaching children, to waiting on the elderly at a Sunday brunch. My people skills have grown very strong in being able to interact with so many different types of people. In addition to those experiences I will complete requirements for my masters in Psychology and Counseling, which I intend to use to help people with difficult life situations. This can involve things such as trouble with school, fitting in, and self-confidence, all which may be issues that the younger population may face throughout their school years. In having a great passion for working with/teaching children, I think that it is immensely important to remember that everyone has a different way of learni

Mary Z - Utica, NY 13502 (26.4 mi) - Sculpting Tutor - $46.50/hr.
I believe children learn best when they can form a connection to their school work. Writing skills can be improved by using topics that are relevant to the student's life. When working on Reading skills I often use high interest topics such as the arts, sports, computers and science to encourage students to excel. Math can also become more meaningful by using real life situations and manipulatives. It is my goal to increase students' self esteem by providing situations in which they can succeed. During my 23 years of teaching I implemented Kindergarten through 6th grade New York State curriculum in a classroom setting. I attended workshops that focused on computer education, Multiage classroom and positive discipline.

Albert A - Clinton, NY 13323 (30.1 mi) - Sculpting Tutor - $43.50/hr.
I graduated in the top ten of my high school class at Utica Free Academy. I had the highest mathematics average. I attended Williams College in Williamstown Mass and studied economics, studio art, and creative writing. Following graduation with a BA degree in 1981, I worked for two seasons as a substitute high school and middle schoolteacher. I covered math, science, English, and the arts, as well as phys ed. Eventually I got into international business as a overseas buyer. I am now retired from that work and look forward to the opportunity to resume teaching. I enjoy the challenge of working with children. My eldest daughter is a graduate of the University of Georgia and I have two teenagers currently in Middle and high school. They have augmented my ability to be patient and flexible when assisting with their homework. Further, their diverse curriculum has made it necessary to

Laura J - Madison, NY 13402 (34.4 mi) - Sculpting Tutor - $52.50/hr.
For the past six years I have taught or tutored even while working on my own higher education. I have taught or tutored every age level between five and sixty-five and every skill level (including special needs), and though I am most comfortable with middle schoolers or college students, I like working with others as well. The subjects I am experienced in tutoring are: studio art (specifically drawing and painting); history; earth sciences; reading; writing (creative and compositional); English literature; art history; and conversational English. I believe that there is no such thing as one size fits all teaching. Every student learns in a different way, at a different pace, and much of the fun for me in the process of teaching is improvisation: discovering which methods work best for each student. I believe foremost in teaching students to take responsibility for their own learnin

Sarah M - Mount Upton, NY 13809 (38.7 mi) - Sculpting Tutor - $51.50/hr.
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, I always adapt my style of teaching a particular subject to best fit the needs of each individual. I have found that incorporating every day examples and scenarios into the concepts that a student is learning, can help them better understand the subject matter, and the application of these concepts. As an educator, I am flexible and rely on numerous resources to help demonstrate topics. I have a very approachable and patient demeanor, and a sincere passion for assisting each student I work with to understand what they are studying and allowing them realize what they are capable of. After graduating from high school as valedictorian, I earned a Zoology BS and a Studio Art BA from SUNY Oswego, successfully completing English compo
