First -Meet the student, Assess the strength and weakness of the student. Second Using the students strength strategy work on the weakness. I believe in doing, for example assignments, lectures have to be interactively approached and conducted independently by the student at all times.

My comments on tutoring Life Science : 20 Years teaching experience, taught 7/8 science for many years

20 years experience in mostly urban school settings. Experience with students with disabilities. Written curriculum for living environment, earth science and chemistry. Proficient in computer technology and excellent track record in passing regents exams. Attended CIBT summer July 2014 where I learned cutting edge lab techniques and worked with Cornell equipment. Using this equipment allows me to borrow equipment, labs or bringing professors to the school I teach. I use STEM lessons along with cross curriculum lessons in my teaching.
I believe all students can succeed. I use a multi sensory approach to my teaching to allow all students to learn. I also believe in hands on learning in science. I commend respect from my students and have excellent classroom management.

Teaching is my passion. No matter the situation, I will work with students until they have performed to the best of their ability. I enjoy working with all types of students and have learned a variety of techniques to do so. In addition to learning necessary material, I gear my instruction toward having fun and allowing students to realize that science does not happen in a bubble, but rather it impacts us every day. I strive to find innovative ways to foster an interest in science and learning as a whole. In addition to being very patient, my experience in working with students has given me insight as to what they may be thinking to clear up confusion and aid in understanding.
I am currently a Masters in teaching biology student and am working part time in a biotechnology teaching laboratory. As an instructor in the lab, I work with middle and high school aged students who com ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Teaching is really what I take pride in and consider myself proficient at. As a co-founder of Read for the Stars, I helped developed a program for at risk, elementary level, inner city students which involved traditional, sit-down tutoring as well as active learning in order to serve the greatest amount of students possible. As a resident assistant for freshmen males, I have learned how to handle crisis situations and tailor my teaching style to all types of personalities. My favorite part of teaching is seeing the finished product and the gratification students feel when their hard work has allowed them to succeed, because that is when I know I have done everything I needed to do and set out to do.
As a graduate of a small, liberal arts college, I feel that I have a unique perspective on learning. With over 50 credits for my BS in Biochemistry as well as my “core” (including En ... read more

I love teaching children and young adults. I feel that children are like sponges and can only learn what is presented to them in a way that they can relate to. Many children learn through hands-on experiences and personal references, therefore I try to incorporate those whenever possible. I really try to enhance the lives of the children I come in contact with.
My father always told me that whatever I chose to do, it had to be working with children. I didn't listen at first and went on to obtain a degree in Hotel Management and after six years of managing a hotel, I chose to listen and go back to school. I now hold a bachelor's degree in Communication Sciences and Disorders. I have been a preschool itinerant speech therapist for 4 years as well as a preschool teacher for two. I not only have experience with preschoolers, I also supplement my own daughter and her friend's publ ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

With a Bachelor of Science degree in Computer Science, Minor in Mathematics, I accepted a position with Xerox Corporation as an entry-level programmer. During my employment at Xerox, I successfully completed my Master of Science degree and continued to advance in the engineering field. My eight-year career at Xerox gave me invaluable experience in the computer industry field. When I decided to enter the teaching field, I was very fortunate to be accepted into the Roberts Wesleyan “Teachers for Tomorrow” program in which I was able to become a full-time mathematics teacher in the Rochester City School district while obtaining my Masters of Educations degree, and teaching certificates in both mathematics and special education.

A Little Bit About Me...

With extensive (and recent) training in education, especially with regard to providing for the needs of diverse learners, I am prepared to work with each student and his or her family to develop an individualized learning plan that will help the student to become confident and proficient in whatever subject area he or she wishes to strengthen. My teaching style is flexible; I will use a variety of techniques and approaches based on what will work best with the student's individual learning style. My leanings are towards comprehensive, hands-on, discovery-based teaching; creating opportunities for my student to make real-world and personal connections with the information.
Though I recently graduated with a BS in Childhood and Special Education, I have many years of experience as a teacher/trainer. I currently substitute teach Per Diem in several local districts for K-12 students. ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I enjoy teaching one on one more then in a group class setting and I do enjoy teaching individual more then in a group setting. I do wish to teach "Chinese" as a personal language when I retire in the future if we don't have SS since I am a baby boomer (hope this is not true)
Born as a Chinese national and I speak fluent Chinese Mandarin language and I studied Business in Accounting and graduated from SUNY Brockport in 1990 and my mathematical course I always get "A" on my grade (I even get 105 on my test score, believe it or not) and I still love math. Therefore I can tutoring not only business in Accounting and also Math or language in Chinese.

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 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.

In my experience, most students learn best by practicing the material and get bored listening to long lectures. However, as I learned from students and from a college tutoring course, all students have different styles of learning and I tailor my teaching to their needs. I want all of my students to experience that moment when everything just "clicks" and they have the confidence to go on learning and reach their high potentials. I also strive to create a stress-free environment so that students are comfortable asking many questions.
At the University at Buffalo I worked as a tutor for university students in subjects ranging from English and Spanish to biology and calculus. My BS is in biomedical sciences but I am also a proficient writer and have taken many English courses. I received an award for Outstanding English Student in high school. In addition, I worked for the WHIZard Ac ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I believe that all children need to be motivated, first extrinsically and later intrinsically to maximize learning. I use the standard teaching style of modelling, guided practice, independent practice, and evaulation. This means that students pratice what they learn in the classroom and out of the classroom. The appropriate motivation creates a positive atmosphere. Getting to know each student maximiizes my ability to help each students' progress. Having a sense of humor,patience, and being open minded are helpful too.
I have been fortunate to have a variety of experiences during my teaching career, 29 years total. As a reading teacher, special ed. teacher, and elementary teacher I have taught most subjects at all levels. During my my most recent experience work at the FingerLakesDDSO I prepared students for the GED as well as taught life skills to developmentally disabled ... read more
