A Little Bit About Me...

I have experience teaching and assisting children in Elementary School. I also have a BS degree in Biology and would love to tutor. I had a 3.0 GPA Undergraduate. I have worked in laboratories for the preious four years using my Biology degree in the Biomedical Field. I also worked as a Sitter in a hospital for a short time where I cared for disabled patients. I wasn't able to use my teaching skills but my caring and patient attitude helped with the position.
I like to connect with the children and really get them interested in the subject. I am laid back but I think I am really effective as a teacher/assistant.

Experienced and Proactive Educator

Experienced and New York State Certified teacher. I have over 10 years experience teaching students in grades 1-12 and 5 years experience teaching adults. I also have extensive tutoring experience. I have an MA from Marist College as well as a BA from NYU. I have designed and taught SAT prep classes (verbal/writing portion) as well as developing curriculum integrating diverse domains of knowledge to create a broad, deep and flexible learning experience for students.
I believe that competence and confidence are BOTH important in learning. Students bring their own knowledge and learning styles to the process. It is the teachers job not only to adapt instructional style to best support the learner, but also to help the student understand his or her own learning style and needs.

I am a strong believer that we all have our own way of learning and it is important to be flexible to the needs of each individual. I have worked as a Counselor for Disabled Adults and see that no matter where a person is developmentally, there is a way to help them achieve a higher level. Patience, creativity and providing a non-judgemental environment are key to helping children and even adults to achieve success. Even the smallest steps forward are still steps forward and should be acknowledged and praised.
I am an English Graduate from SUNY New Paltz and have a broad range of interests. My time as an English student has taught me to use more critical research and analytical skills. I am hoping my degree will enable me to help others to improve their passion for writing and reading, not just teach them how to approach/explicate or write about a work, but to really find enjoy ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I am a trained Science Teacher specializing in Biology, Chemistry and Physics. I have over twelve years of High School teaching experience where I prepared students for external exams in Chemistry, Physics and Biology in my native country of Jamaica. The success rate was over 90%. I have tutored both adults (preparing for their GED and LPN exams in Math and English) and young adults (preparing for college exams) during the last four years.
Teaching is a skill that I have mastered and I have been successful at finding a fun way of getting students to learn. I like to introduce activities that are practical to the subject so the student understands the concept and therefore have a better understanding of the topic being covered. I am available to help anyone who needs help in finding academic success. I am patient, considerate and will use all available resources to get the stu ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I received my Bachelor of Science degree in Biology from the State University of New York at SUNY New Paltz and I have matriculated into the Master of Arts in Biology program at the same university. As a result of my many research and laboratory reports I have excellent writing and typing skills and have completed many writing assignments including numerous essays in various fields as a requirement of completing my Bachelor of Science degree. Because I have coursework at the graduate level in the field of biology, I have taught at the college level and will continue to do so next semester, so I have roughly 1 year of experience teaching students.
I have several years experience working with children and adults in the education field. The students I have taught at the college level ranged from late teens to early 30s. As I have worked with such a wide range of ages I am familiar ... read more

When I am teaching my students, I am someone who has passion in all of the work that I do. I've always wanted to be a teacher and I want to make a positive impact in their lives. I know that all children can learn, whether or not they may have a learning disability. Knowing that all students work at different paces or need learn by different styles (hands-on, visual, oral) I try to incorporate that into all of my lesson plans so they can get the best out of a lesson. I am a very loving, caring and passionate person, especially when it comes to education and teaching children. To me, teaching isn't a job; it's a lifestyle and I try my best to give 110% everyday.

A Little Bit About Me...

I do not have a lot of experience in the teaching field but I am a natural born teacher. I have been a mentor to many people in my life; friends, co-workers, even family members would say the same. If given the opportunity I will be able to grow with and enjoy the success of all my students. We will indulge in the passion of education!
I am a very interactive, do-it-yourself kind of educator. There is nothing more liberating and inspiring than understanding and recognizing the limitlessness of one's own ability. With just the right push from me, our children can reach unbeleivably great heights!

A Little Bit About Me...

I earned her Bachelor’s Degree in Biochemistry from Manhattan College in 2002. After working for companies such as Pfizer and Weill Cornell Medical College, I returned to school, receiving my Master’s in Education from Pace University in 2007. I enjoys sharing the wonder of the physical world with inquiring young minds.
My educational philosophy is based on the fact that individuals learn differently, and this has led to the practice of instructing using alternative methods. Since true learning occurs when students are in a trustworthy environment, I find creativity and flexibility to be an asset in both constructing such an environment and determining how each student will take responsibility for their education. Furthermore, young people must be provided with experiential opportunities that foster the creation of their own connections, and my patience helps me to act as a fac ... read more

I feel that every teacher has their own unique style of teaching students. For me, I feel the most important thing is to get to know every individual. I feel that to successfully educate each student, teachers need to use a variety of diverse techniques to support the learning needs and styles of every student. This way, each student could learn to the best of their ability. The most important goal for me is to help each child that I work with succeed and master skills in a trusting and educational learning environment. I feel that one of the best ways to teach a child is through a variety of hands-on activities and interactive experiences. Every educator can make a difference in a life, and that is what I intend to do!

In 1973 I joined the West Park Union Free School a newly legislated Special Ed. school as a teacher/ administrator. I moved to Educational administration in 1986. I returned to the classroom in 1990.

I have 25 years as a science teacher and science administrator. I am well skilled in a variety of instructional techniques and have successfully taughtstudents at all levels and of all abilities including students with learning disabilities. I have taught all four science specialties and am certified in NY to teach Biology, Chemistry and Physics as well as General Science. My students have gone on to learn and work in the sciences and have scored well in national competitions
The teaching style I choose depends on the student, the situation and the material to be mastered. I prefer hands-on activities when they are applicable but will use whatever method will produce the needed result for the student.
