Microsoft Excel Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Fairport, NY

I have been a teacher of French and English and a financial analyst/managerial accountant. I bring an element of teaching to all the work I have done. I find ways to make things understandable, by drawing on prior experiences of my own and those with whom I am working. I taught French for 3 years after having studied in France. I worked as a counselor in a French language camp for 2 summers where I taught both pure language studies as well as activities such as sports, cooking and shopping. I went back to school to get an accounting degree and have worked in industry using managerial accounting since then. I have tutored privately on an ad hoc basis for the past 9 years. Languages, accounting and math are all about learning the rules, applying the rules and then learning new situations to use them. I try to find out how a student learns and mold my teaching to satisfy their lear

In many of my previous positions, I was responsible for training employees. My communication skills are excellent, and I am strongest in the area of English Language Arts, but am comfortable with most Elementary level subjects. With extensive (and recent) training in education, especially with regard to providing for the needs of diverse learners, I am prepared to work with ea

I have taught for two years as an Earth Science teacher in the Rochester City School District. I was also a teaching assistant in a K-5 building in West Irondequoit (self-contained classrooms). I have been a substitute teacher/teaching assistant in the Penfield Central School District. I have also spent some time tutoring some students from Penfield in Earth Science. In college at Fredonia I tutored students in Geology and Geography. I love to be around students who are eager to learn new things. I typically take a very hands on approach to learning, especially with science, as I believe it makes it more fun and easier to understand. I am a very patient person, easy going and a good listener. I always hope to leave my students with the same love for science that I have.

My teaching style is patient and relaxed. I encourage children to find the answers on their own with my guidance and tons of encouragement. I feel that children flourish in this type of environment. I strive to provide all the tools, guidelines, and expectations necessary up front in order to create a relaxed environment where the focus is on learning and less on apprehension or nervousness. Throughout my job positions I have mentored and tutored new coworkers to bring them up to speed on business/IT systems. I have written technical documentation and test cases for 7 years. Recently, I was attending writing-intensive classes at Empire State College which has enabled me to brush up on grammar and writing for research papers. I currently script requirements and scenarios for an IT company as a Business Analyst.

I have 20 years of Finance, Information Systems and Engineering experience. As a person that put himself through college, both undergrad and grad school and then taught at a local Community College, I bring a unique perspective on the value that education can bring to a person's life. From an industry perspective, I have both developed and trained employees and received training prepared by other employees. I prefer a one on one or a classroom style envionment. One on one training allows me to focus on the student and understand the areas that he or she may be having difficulty with which allows me to tailor my curriculum to the student's needs. I believe in hands on work by the student such that he or she can demonstrate back to me that the concepts have been understood.

I am currently a substitute teacher and work everyday in one of four school districts in the Rochester area. I enjoy helping and tutoring kids. I teach ESL to adults on Monday and Wednesday nights and that is very similar to tutoring. I believe tutoring is very rewarding as a teacher and for the student. My teaching style depends on the student. Some students need more visual and audio while others depend on memorization. I like to modify my style that suits their needs as a learner. I beleive in comprehension skills, memorization and learning key concepts to help them link connections.

After graduating from Cornell University in May of 2009, I was hired as a legislative assistant in the New York State Senate where I write press releases, columns, letters, and speeches as well as correspond with various state and federal agencies on a daily basis. Throughout my experiences I have learned to write and communicate in clear and direct terms and believe that I have the knowledge and ability to assist any student in achieving their goals. As a martial arts instructor for 3 years, I developed unique tools to motivate and teach discipline to students of all ranks, ages, and ability levels. I believe these same principles can be applied to teaching any subject matter. My teaching style revolves around patience. No one can learn overnight and no one who is struggling already can work under pressure. It is vital to cultivate a strong and positive attitude toward the subject matt

Throughout my academic career, I have been motivated to achieve at a high level, regardless of the discipline I was studying. This motivation has allowed me to obtain two bachelor degrees, a BS in Business Administration and a BA in Psychology. My specialization in two distinct areas has allowed me to adapt to a variety of research and writing methods. Starting at an early age, I was able to gain experience teaching skills to others as a member of the Boy Scouts of America and eventually achieved the rank of Eagle Scout. I have also mentored adolescents in a variety of areas while working as a youth counselor. I have always aspired to adapt my teaching techniques to each student on an individual basis. I have been successful in doing so by utilizing a vast array of methodologies to instruct and provide examples which are relevant to each unique student. I believe there is no greate

I follow the curriculum. First I go over the material that needs to be taught and I study it as if I were a student who didn't understand. Then, I create lesson plans that are interactive, fun, and modern. I do believe in older methods that work, for example grammar worksheets and journal writing every day to encourage practice. I'm a fun teacher, and that is what I believe kids need, especially today. Our youth is growing up in a generation of television screens at gas stations, ipods, cell phones with video cameras, myspace, facebook, etc. . . . Therefore it was my goal to find passion in their lives, first. For example Anthony Hicks didn't like English, but he loved playing football. I knew this was his motivation, so I focused on what he was good at as something to motivate him to get a good grade in my class. Anthony got an A, because of his hard work and determination. My t

I believe all children have the ability to succeed in their academic career. By being patient, upbeat, and interested in their topic of study, children will not have a problem taking risks in their learning. Science is learned through exploration. I believe a hands-on activity is the best approach to learning any subject. I am a recent graduate of Nazareth College and I am currently going there for my masters. I earned a bachelor’s degree in Inclusive Education and Biology. This gave me the opportunity to earn certification through grades 1st through 9th along with special education. I have gained tutor experience through volunteer programs at Nazareth with mostly high school students.

I have a tendency to push myself, I was persuing a double major in college in Math and Musical Theater but made a last minute decision to focus on my math career. I then pushed myself to achieve a master's degree in Secondary Education in only a year. I began tutoring in college when I decided that I wanted to go into teaching. I gained experiences tutoring Statistics, all levels of Calculus and college Algebra. I was never at the top of my class but I was above average so I feel I understand both the students who come to understand topics well as well as those who need a little help. I believe that students learn best when they can put meaning behind what they learn. I do my best to answer the question, "When am I ever going to use this?" I have found that my best teaching moments have been out of the formal classroom, when I am working in a one-on-one setting with my student. I

I have over 35 years industrial experience. These include Exxon Production Research, Houston (5 years) Scott Papepr Co, Philadelphia (2 years) Xerox Corp, Webster, NY (24 years). I have over 7 years teaching experience: Rochester Institute of Tech (Visiting Professor) Mechanical Engineeringand Math Dept. I can teach math and many engineering courses up to graduate level. I spend a lot of time (as much as needed) to make a student grasp concepts. Once concepts are well understood, it becomes easy to solve problems. For this reason, the rate of progress depends on the student's interest and dedication to study. I assume that if a student is willing to pay for tutoring, the incentive to learn will not be lacking. The student's competence improves when the student solves a variety of problems. My objective is to help the student solve problems with minimal assistance, so that the stud
