Goldy S. - Poughkeepsie, NY 12601 (45.8 mi) - World History Tutor - $37.50/hr.
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. 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.

Laura M. - Poughkeepsie, NY 12601 (45.8 mi) - World History Tutor - $42.50/hr.
Hands on learning, use of technology, books, group learning, creative role play of different ways to solve problems. Many years of experience teaching, working, and tutoring children of all ages. Every child learns in a different way. I want to be able to find the best way and help children have fun while learning. It is important to establish what learning method works best for a child before teaching can take place. A child will be successful if they are having fun and learning in a style that they feel comfortable with.

Very skilled in teaching a variety of learning styles across the different areas of the multiple levels of intelligences. I have taught in the education field since 1999. I am very fortunate to have had the privilege of working with a multitude of learners in a variety of environments. Early in my career I worked with adults that were mentally and physically challenged. I found this very rewarding and decided to pursue a degree in education, which lead me on my journey into the world of Special Education. I began working with children and young adolescents who had a variety of special needs and learning styles; I went on to specialized Autism and Special Education for K-12. After working with young children for many years I decided to branch out to work with young adolescents and adults pursuing their high school equivalency. Working with young adolescents and adults proved to be just as

Suzanne G - Richmondville, NY 12149 (24 mi) - World History Tutor - $52.50/hr.
My love for teaching and working with children has allowed me to learn a variety of ways to help my students learn. Through the use of audio, visual and tactile manipulatives, my students have had some very exciting experiences and have succeeded in meeting the objectives set for them. I do believe in setting high expectations for each child and my experience has shown me that they rise to the occasion. My decision to become a pedagogue was due to the fact that I had wonderful teachers in my life who were supportive, kind and thoughtful. They inspired me to want to learn more and want to give more. I strive to make a difference in the life of my students also. As an educator, seeking excellence in the public and private sectors, I have been afforded the opportunity to work with students in Elementary up through Middle and High Schools as a pedagogue and tutor. I have earned my BA in Prim

Robert D - Lake Katrine, NY 12449 (31.2 mi) - World History Tutor - $45.50/hr.
I enjoy helping students understand the principles they are dealing with, rather than focusing on helping them simply "get the answer" to the problem at hand. My goal is for them to be able to generalize the concept and apply it in different contexts. To develop interest, I seek to discuss related information or similar problems as much as possible. For Physics in particular, this approach is key to providing a sound foundation for future learning. Most of my career has been spent at IBM, where I built on my Physics background for a broad range of opportunities. I am now seeking to move into a teaching career and plan to start a Masters in Teaching in the Fall of 2009. During my educational development, I taught for three years in undergraduate and graduate school as part of the duties of a teaching Assistant. I have tutored secondary school students for the last 5 years in Math, P

Garrett D - Cobleskill, NY 12043 (32.8 mi) - World History Tutor - $48.50/hr.
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 student

Devan B - Cooperstown, NY 13326 (33.6 mi) - World History Tutor - $44.50/hr.
Through my years as a tutor, I have come to believe in the ability of each student to improve his or her writing skills. I have worked with students at many levels of comprehension and aptitude, including ESL students, and I have witnessed the confidence that grows through contact with a kind and effective tutor. I have become skilled in figuring out each student's needs--are they nervous about revision? Intimidated by grammar? Stuck in the brainstorming process? I have the tools to tackle any writing problem, and can think on my feet for that one solution that will make the difference. There's nothing better than seeing a change come over a student's face when a breakthrough has occurred or an idea has come to life between the two of us. I graduated magna cum laude from Bryn Mawr College, where I received a BA degree in English and a minor in Creative Writing. I have also been the recip

John H - Callicoon, NY 12723 (34.1 mi) - World History Tutor - $38.00/hr.
As someone who felt in my youth that if I could only pay attention I could learn anything has taught me how to break down the barriers to focus and how it can shape a students success in any discipline. Focusing on my learning style has taught me how to demonstrate complex ideas in ways that are easy to absorb. I tend to find different ways to relate material to students in ways that are fun. I used a dollars and cents approach to teach young students the importance of decimals, fractions, and basic arithmetic as how it affected their own bottom line: their allowance, milk money and so on. I also have found that not speaking from a position of authority but rather as a fellow learner have exacted better results. As a graduate of the University of Michigan with a bachelors in History I feel that I have more than adequate educational experience to tutor students of not only History but als

As a tutor I always strive to make the material accessible to the student as well as focusing on each students’ individual strengths and abilities. I also teaching studying and organizational skills. I have often found that when students complain that they are studying long hours without results, it is because they need to learn to study differently.

I am currently earning my Masters in psychology at SUNY New Paltz.
