Luciana F. - Cheektowaga, NY 14225 (21.3 mi) - GED Tutor - $40.00/hr.
I am a direct/explicit instructional teacher or instructor. Explicit instruction is broken up into stages that follow a sequence. The sequence of teaching/learning is as follows: first setting a purpose for learning, then telling students what to do, then showing them how to do it, and finally guiding them with hands-on application of the new item that was learned.

Donna C. - Churchville, NY 14428 (47.3 mi) - GED Tutor - $27.50/hr.
I have been tutoring for both adults and adolescents for over five years in a variety of fields. I develop individual learning plans that are designed based on each students strengths and learning style. Additionally, I have found that making the material relevant to life outside of the classroom results in greater mastery. The material will be taught so that it is easily transferable to other areas. I have experience helping students with and without special needs.

Mark T - Strykersville, NY 14145 (10.1 mi) - GED Tutor - $45.50/hr.
The very first task is to assess the student's age and learning style. Once this is determined I select the teaching style to best accomodate the student's needs. Although I have used Expert and Formal formats, I prefer to incorporated Personal and Facilitator styles. Personal establishes a prototype for how to think and behave. It oversees, guides, and directs by showing how to do things. Facilitator guides and directs students by asking questions, exploring options, suggesting alternatives. The goal is to develop the capacity for critical thinking, initiative, and responsibility with lots of encouragement and support. Throughout my career in business and education I have always loved and appreciated the opportunity to teach and to mentor. I have worked in several college and vocational school departments including teaching, financial aid counseling, registrar, student affairs, career p

Karen M - Orchard Park, NY 14127 (13.9 mi) - GED Tutor - $43.00/hr.
I love opening up a child's mind to the love of the written word. The possibility of expressing one's private thoughts and experiences have the power to change lives for the better.
I have always been patient and understanding with children.
Some of my best memories as a child focus on that one teacher that went out of her way to see in me the potential , that I was unable to see in myself. I promise to do my best to ensure that your child feels the same way about one teacher making that deciding difference and bringing to light your child's potential. During my tenure at Buffalo State College, I volunteered at the Equal Opportunity Program, where my main strength was utilized by actively tutoring students in the art of the english essay.
I was able to tutor these students and advise them in the general format of the essay. We began by procurring a general introduction, or a stateme

Jamie B - Little Valley, NY 14755 (16.5 mi) - GED Tutor - $49.00/hr.
All students learn in a different way. Primarily, I will try to tutor to that students strengths, but I will include other ways as well. This is to allow the student various opportunities to better expand a topic they struggle with and gain more knowledge on that topic. My goal is to give students the confidence to succeed in the math classroom. I graduated with my masters in math education in 2008 from SUNY Fredonia. During the school year, I am a substitute teacher. I have taught long-term at various districts in 7th/8th grades, as well as Algebra.

Corey G - Depew, NY 14043 (19.7 mi) - GED Tutor - $48.00/hr.
My teaching style is centered around student activity. Students must be able to fully understand the objectives of the lesson and be able to construct the meaning of the lesson on their own. All steps should be modeled and structured for clarity. I have graduated from Canisius College with a Master degree in Education. I am currently on track to have NYS initial certification by February. My student teaching was conducted at Hamburg Middle School and Lackawanna High School in 9th grade social studies and 7th grade American history. I have extensive experience in writing through my schooling and in my work experience in journalism, which required a high degree of literacy.

Jamie P - Lancaster, NY 14086 (19.9 mi) - GED Tutor - $44.50/hr.
In teaching special education, I have learned that children can be successful when given the proper environment to learn in. Providing a consistent, structured environment allows students to develop successful patterns. I believe that students need to develop the tools and strategies to be successful in all phases of life. Remaining positive is crucial as a teacher. Having a brother with a disability has given me the patience and the compassion for all students. I have worked at the Stanley G. Falk School for three years, including teaching during this time. I currently teach fifth grade at a satelite location in Buffalo Public School #27. I have worked with different types of students, including those with both behavioral and emotional disabilities. My strong work ethic and outlook is an excellent attribute to bring to any environment. I started tutoring for the Lancaster Youth

John B - Cheektowaga, NY 14225-5202 (20.2 mi) - GED Tutor - $47.00/hr.
As a training manager, I often taught classes to large groups of individuals on subjects such as statistics, Microsoft Office programs, and teamwork, problem solving and quality concepts. Further, as an engineer, I did a lot of one-on-one teaching of job instructions and job changes. I further informally taught other engineers how to perform different tasks in Word and Excel. Although I am an engineer by education, I have often found myself in a teaching role of all groups of people. I have often been complimented for my tremendous patience and ability to work with others to teach them some new information or concept. I believe in "teaching and doing" where the person is shown something and then they have to do it themselves to help reinforce the concept I'm trying to teach them.

Alfred K - Buffalo, NY 14215 (22.8 mi) - GED Tutor - $42.50/hr.
I always strived to be the best student I can be. I have a bachelors in business and a master diploma in computer Science. I started but have not continued with my MBA due to lack of funds. I have been lucky to secure jobs that have given me extensive experience as a Financial analyst in different industies including Healthcare. I previously taught foreign students through a grant with Buffalo State Research foundation for 2 yrs and it needed patience due to the language barrier we had to work on in addition to the school work. I saw success in this students who made it todifferent colleges when some of them could not speak English when they first got here.
