More About This Tutor...

I am a firm believer that tutoring students one-on-one is very beneficial and gives the student the added time and experience needed to excel in a certain subject. I also believe that each student has a different learning style which should be emphasized during tutoring sessions in order to make the learning experience easier,and more effective.
I have been a full time tutor for the SUNY Research Foundation for four years and have tutored students in grades 6-9 in the areas of english,history,math and science.I am presently located at the Fort Plain High School with the research foundation program.Before this, I was a substitute teacher for three years in the following areas:math, science, english and history. This was also at the high school level.

I am committed to providing our children with the very best educational quality that I can, and am constantly try to improve upon my own skills.

Tutoring is one of my best skills, its just something I do well. I’ve tutored k-12 for Amsterdam, Gloversville and Johnstown in almost any subject, I have a strong math background particularly in algebra. I’m a good writer and do some freelance writing online at times. I have some experience with computer applications such as Photoshop, MS Publisher and PowerPoint. My BA. degree is in economics with a minor in business, I’ve completed some courses in graphic communications and have taken psychology on a graduate level. I’ve also homeschooled my own son for a year. He recently posted a 4.0 GPA at FMCC.
I enjoy tutoring enough to do it for free, which I have done for my friends from time to time. I’m a friendly laid back person who loves to learn and help others learn, particularly in a one on one setting. I’m quite good at breaking a subject down into an understandable step by step ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have devoted my life as a mother of three and as an educator. I have earned a BA in English and a Master's Degree in Special Education. In addition, I have dual certification in New York State. I am very knowledgeable in the areas of History, English, and Life Science. My students have a high success rate for passing New York State Regent's Exams.
I am a firm believer that all children can learn if given every option to be successful. In order to achieve success, students should be surrounded with tools to help them learn and a positive learning environment is key. Teachers should not expect all children to learn at the same pace nor same learning style. I never give up on my students. Students need teachers who do not accept failure and teach perseverance.

I am currently a pre-k teacher in Albany, NY. I've taken many math courses, and feel extremely comfortable tutoring any level mathematics. I have experience tutoring, teaching, and being in numerous different educational settings. I recently graduated with my Masters in Integration of Technology K-8. I believe technology plays a major role in education and students enjoy learning with the aide of technology. I have tutored a child in my hometown, and believe that one-on-one time for a child is very effective. I also work for the state in the summer through the DEC, and started a junior naturalist program at the site. This program has been very successful and I enjoy every minute I am in the education setting.
First and foremost, I believe teaching is my calling. I have known that I wanted to be a teacher since the 4th grade, and my goals were achieved when I graduated with my MA ... read more

There is no one teaching style that works for all learners. It is important to provide a variety of learning styles to reach all the learners. Both inductive and deductive approches allow for children to discover and be creative which is exciting and rewarding for the learner and the teacher as well. I strive to make the learning experiece a lifetime endeavor not just a classroom activity. I love teaching and learning.
After College I spent 8 years at a College Prep School Schuyleville, NY where I taught NY State Regents Biology, Chemistry, Physics, and Algebra. I also taught Earth Science there and was a dorm supervisor. In 1980 I took a job with the NYS Division For Youth as a Math/Science teacher for incarcerated youth at risk in a residential program. I was relocated to a School For Boys in 1983 where I instructed Biology,Earth Science, Living Environment, Gen. Math, Algebra ... read more

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 st ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Tutoring should be a tool used to complement traditional education. When tutoring there is little help in providing information to the student the same way that the teacher presents it. Tutors may also fall into the trap of simply giving the student the answers. For these reasons I prefer an holistic approach to tutoring. Every student is different and they all have different ways of understanding the material. As I am tutoring I keep in mind that I am also learning, keeping an open mind about the way a students is learning helps me to determine the best method of teaching the subject at hand.
I spent nine semester at FMCC in the TRiO Student Support Services program. I began as a part time tutor and after one semester the program director saw it prudent to keep me on. During my time with the program I helped to establish several tutoring programs, one at FM and another at Amsterda ... read more

More About This Tutor...

My experiences at Deerfield Academy (Deerfield, MA) gave me a passion to educate and mentor. I received my bachelor's degree from SUNY-Albany in Biology (2001). I began tutoring predominately high school students in 1998 in the areas of Mathematics(NYS Regents), Regents Biology and Chemistry. My success as a tutor led to a full-time teaching position at Gloversville High School (Gloversville, NY). My reputation at Gloversville created an opportunity for me as Science Department Chair at Hamilton-Fulton-Montgomery County BOCES's Alternative Education Program. I have spent the last six (6) years in financial services, however, I continued to privately tutor after I left teaching.
