A Little Bit About Me...

Even as a student i helped my fellow students to understand and grasp the subjects they were having difficulty with. i can generaly spinn the information into a subject matter that interests the individual or just explain it in an easier to understand manner, offted they just get lolst in the language of teaching. i minnored in math, and majorred in science and agriculture in high school, ansd took veternary technology in colledge this involved mostly biologies and lab technigues.
i have never taught professionaly, but have assisted fellow students. the methods i useed to help them were ither to incorporate the subject matter into a sumject that they had a personal interest in, or manny time i found that they just didnot understand the language of the subject so i reexplained it in simpler terms and they got it just fine.

More About This Tutor...

After receiving a degree in Sociology from a New York State University, I went on to earn a provisional teaching certificate in Biology. I have twenty-one graduate hours in Reading and eleven graduate hours in Early Childhood Education. My previous work experience had me working with families where one adult was in need of a GED. I have tutored students from elementary through high school in every subject (except Foreign Languages) for over ten years. I have also worked with entering BOCES LPN students on math review and raised many of their entry level grades twenty points. I have also been very successful tutoring children with behavior problems.
Teaching young people and seeing them succeed is such a reward. Many students find the conventional school setting difficult and work with greater success in a one on one setting. Getting to know the student and his or her learning ... read more

I love short instruction/lecture periods followed by hands on activities or practice problems in class, allowing me to monitor students and minimize frustration experienced by long homework asignments.
I recently retired from Portville Central School after teaching 31 years here in New York State. I am certified in Biology/Gene Science, Chemistry, and Physics. I was a mentor for the State Education Department for 10 years and have attended conferences all over the country for both chemistry and physics techniques and new practices. I am fluent with computers and use Vernier interfaces and probes to collect and analyze data for both subject areas. I teach chemistry and physics part time at Archbishop Walsh Academy at the present and I am seeking new experiences for the afternoon and evenings.

During my past three years at St. John Fisher College I have been actively engaged in the chemistry department. I have been exposed to various teaching types, one being active learning within a group. This has allowed me to develop teaching skills by explaining my ideas on the subject to my group, while learning the material at the same time. Also, for the past two years I have been an individual tutor for students taking introduction to chemistry. During the tutoring sessions I would help with homework or further explain the material covered in class.
I believe that different teaching styles help different students. A method of both lecture and active learning can be effective for the widest range of students. This allows the students to get a brief introduction to the day’s material before they work in groups on questions about the material. I feel that student’s can learn ... read more

More About This Tutor...

As a graduate of one of the top state schools in New York, I have always believed in the importance of education. I have a BA in art studio, 2 years of biology/chemistry, and Calculus I&II, which has given me a well rounded education. I have also developed a higher level of writing skills through my research papers and laboratory write-ups. My latin classes have given me a better understanding of vocabulary and the derivatives of different languages from latin. The past year I have been studying chemical and physical aspects of my visual arts. I find ways to be diverse in the way I learn.
Teaching and working with children not only educates them but it educates myself in the process. I get to touch up on materials that the children are learning, as well as learn better ways to educate students. Patience is what I believe is the most important aspect of teaching. Children can become ... read more

More About This Tutor...

Once in a classroom I realized that I was meant to teach. I love working with students who are challenging and those who challenge me. I believe that I can become a better teacher only by continually challenging myself and my students. The key phrase “engaging students” seems less than what is required in the classroom. I want my students to be engaged but I want them to encompass and enjoy what they are doing as well. I love technology and new method topics; I have a very strong math and science background as well as excellent written and verbal presentation skills. I was a hands on learner and often use hands on methods to teach when possible. I have taught every level from kindergarten to college level and feel comfortable doing so.
I am interested in tutoring because I love teaching regardless of the subject matter. I’ve been lucky enough to be given the opportunity to try se ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I very much enjoy working with students. I get along easily with others, and am patient and understanding when teaching. I have good listening skills and try to really pinpoint a student's strengths and weaknesses. I think that tailoring questions and problems to a student's current knowledge level is important for motivating and challenging him or her without too much frustration. I think personalized teaching can really make a huge difference for a student.
I have a B.S. in biology. I have previously tutored for 3 years in college level biology and chemistry, and one year in biochemistry. I have also tutored in high school math, and have worked worked with students preparing for the SAT math section. I have previously worked with individuals and small groups and am comfortable with both.

I have been working with younger students since middle school as a leader at my church in the children's church summer bible school program as well as other church events. Academically, I have earned the Gold Humanism in Medicine award, thus I have a strong ability to relate and communicate with others. I've been blessed with a great ability to motivate individuals and have used this for students, patients, and my soldiers alike.

As an educator, I prefer to use a hands on inquiry approach, augmented with appropriate scaffolding, and Socratic questioning. It has been my experience and research supports that students learn and internalize their learning much better when they figure it out for themselves. In addition to the experience listed above I have also volunteered as a youth coach for ages 6-18 for a total of 16 years. In both sports and education, I have consistently been successful at engaging and motivating students to excel.
After a 20 year business career I returned to school and earned a Masters of Education Degree (QPA 4.0). I worked as an elementary teacher for four years, but was unable to secure a permanent position. I returned to school and have earned certification in High School Chemistry (GPA: 3.84) and Physics (QPA: 3.11). I have also taught one year of Chemistry and am currently comp ... read more

In 2005 I graduated from Fredonia University with childhood education including a middle school extension in English. I completed my master's degree in Special Education from Medaille University in 2008. I hold a New York Certification in Childhood Education as well as English through grade 9. I have worked in many educational levels throughout the elementary and middle school. I spent 3 years as a teacher's aide in a pre-school setting. I spent a year as the academic intervention specialist in a elementary school. I have also spent 2 years as a general education teacher in the first grade. I am willing and capable to tutor any student in grades K-9.
I believe that all students have a different way and style of learning. As an educator I take an open approach to teaching. For each student to succeed they must find a style of learning that suits them. I take the time to fi ... read more

Typically, most students I have worked with are fairly bright, it is just about finding the right way to explain the complicated science in plain english so that they can understand it. Tell the right story, use the right analogy, or draw the right parallels and the student can grasp and understand almost anything.
I have previously worked in a laboratory where I had the opportunity to work with students rotating through my laboratory for school credit. I was an adjunct clinical instructor with the Department of Biotechnology and Clinical Laboratory Sciences with University at Buffalo. Although some students were only there two weeks, most were there three to five months, and it was my responsibility to show them all the analyses that were performed in my laboratory, as well as make sure they understood the theory behind the analyses.

More About This Tutor...

I have an Master of Business Administration and a Bachelor degree in Mathematics Education. I was a math tutor and math teaching assistant at Daemen College. I completed two student teaching placements in mathematics classrooms during my education. I also completed a volunteer experience at Seneca Babcock Preschool where I aided the teacher in helping the children learn colors and numbers. When I was a senior in high school, I taught Spanish to 2nd graders for a semester long project.
Teaching is such a rewarding experience. It is an amazing feeling when you help a student learn something that they previously had been struggling with. My goal is to help the student by becoming interested in the material. If the student is interested in the material, they will have a better chance of learning it. I hope I can have the opportunity to make a difference in many students lives.

More About This Tutor...

As a high school student, I spent time tutoring other students in science and math. I went on to study biology at Cornell University, where I earned my B.S. Upon graduation I decided to attend medical school, but I recently realized my true desire is to teach. I currently possess all the required knowledge to teach biology, and I will soon be pursuing my Master's and certification in education.
I enjoy drawing parallels between the coursework I am teaching and real life. My own high school biology teacher used this approach, and with it he was able to maintain the students' interest and motivation. I believe that students are more eager to learn when they realize that their coursework has real-world applicability.

A Little Bit About Me...

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.
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.
