I lecture in a discussion atmosphere. I will challenge your points and make sure you can back your arguments so you can be confident in the information you are learning. I have worked in court rooms, private and public law offices. In my experience, I have help prepare manslaughter cases and rape cases. Majority of my experience is in these field. I teach paralegal certification courses at various colleges across New York State. I teach my students through case law and research. I apply every day topics and give the most up to date information in a field that changes daily.

Katelyn D. - Cicero, NY 13039 (7 mi) - Government Tutor - $12.50/hr.
I really enjoy engaging the student in discussion of the topic and helping them experience the events in History rather than just remembering dates and locations. I am currently pursuing a degree in secondary education with a specialization in American History. I have a passion for the subject and for helping students succeed. I just completed my practicum last fall and was active in a 10th grade World History class for about 10 hours a week. During the summer of 2011 I was employed at girl scout camp in Lake George where I planned and taught History lessons for our weekly programs. I also have worked for the Walt Disney Company, in the Magic Kingdom. While I was there, I was able to do American History trivia and tours for the Liberty Square area.

Shannon M. - Syracuse, NY 13215 (9 mi) - Government Tutor - $52.50/hr.
I have 15 years of teaching experience with special needs students in a rural school district. During this time i provided private tutoring sessions for Elementary, Middle, High School and College students. At the college level my tutoring experience is with reading, writing, study skills and organization. Currently I develop educational programming for incarcerated youth. My belief is that all students have different learning styles. Therefore lessons need to be individualized to meet student needs. In order to be successful students need to be engaged by creative teachers. My teaching experience has taught me to accommodate these needs when developing lesson plans.

Amanda W - Liverpool, NY 13090 (1.7 mi) - Government Tutor - $42.50/hr.
Before I was able to tutor, I taught 7 year old girls cheerleading. When I began to tutor, I enjoyed being one on one with the child. I am very patient, punctual and considerate. I know children that need extra help need extra time. I find it personally rewarding to supplament a child's education. I also believe it is easier for a child to ask questions when they are one on one with an educator. Beginning in high school I found myself driven to help children in need. Through my participation in Mercy Action, I raised money for mentally delayed children, and set up numerous barbeques for them. Later, I began tutoring a young brazilian boy in the 5th grade. He needed help with all of his studies, especially math and english. As a political science major, I have gained experienced in essay writing, grammatical skills and research methods.

Tina F - Syracuse, NY 13219 (4.5 mi) - Government Tutor - $48.00/hr.
My teaching style is a hands-on-approach. I don't want students to just learn and memorize history; but to enjoy it and see how it relates to their own lives. I use visual, verbal, and tactical aids with each of my lessons. I also strive to include everyone culturally and literally (i.e. if they have IEP's or literacy issues). I have had two practicum rotations thus far. My first rotation was at C. W. Baker High School, in Baldwinsville, NY. This was a 10th grade, level one Global Studies classroom. I assisted with group activites, and helping students connect the information they were currently learning to prior knowledge. My second rotation was at Grant Middle School, in Syracuse, NY. This is a 7th grade (begining US history) classroom. During this time I taught several lessons, created and administered a pre-test, as well as work one-one with several students that had IEP's and lower

Brandon C - Baldwinsville, NY 13027 (5.6 mi) - Government Tutor - $49.50/hr.
I'm very laid back and patient when it comes to teaching. I can empathize with students who have difficulty in a subject because at one point in my educational career I had trouble and needed help. I do believe that almost every one is capable of learning and progressing, given the right opportunity. It makes me feel great to help someone achieve their goals. I'm a personal trainer, which is very similar to tutoring. I love seeing people improve because of my assistance. Many people have helped me get to where I am today and I want to give back to the younger cohort. I'm a leader, I want to lead students in the right direction. It means a lot to me to make a positive difference in this world, and it starts with education of our youth. As a Syracuse University graduate, I studied at the Maxwell School and the Whitman School of management. Maxwell is recognized worldwide for its experti

Theresa E - Syracuse, NY 13210 (6.3 mi) - Government Tutor - $46.50/hr.
As a recent honors graduate, I am very passionate about education. I have earned a bachelor of science degree, which has enabled me to gain an understanding in many areas of science as well as communication and writing. I currently work as a technical writer and thus, have a solid knowledge of the English language and proper grammatical skills. During the last 4 years I have tutored elementary and middle school students in English, reading, and sciences. I love working with children and believe that my enthusiasm for learning will help motivate them to further pursue their own studies. I am confident that I will help your child find academic success. As the oldest child, I have grown patient, understanding, and considerate. I believe that all children can learn and I look forward to working with yours. My teaching style is hands on and interactive, focusing primarily on positive reinforc

Amanda A - Cicero, NY 13039 (6.7 mi) - Government Tutor - $58.50/hr.
I recognize the importance of a dynamic teaching style- one that adjusts depending on both the subject matter and the student. I am very experienced with addressing procrastination and anxiety. A patient, encouraging, and directed atmosphere is a great aid in learning. Tutoring should take away the distractions of the classroom to enable the student to learn one-on-one, to solidify what is taught in school. I have the tools to help your child succeed, and would love to share in their academic successes. As a recent graduate of the Rutgers-Newark University Honors College, I hold a B.A. in Biology and plan to continue my education in the future. As a member of the Honors College I was exposed to the most rigorous English Literature and History courses, which enabled me to hone my writing skills. In addition, I have extensive experience in the Biological Sciences. While earning my de

Brian N - Syracuse, NY 13214 (7 mi) - Government Tutor - $45.00/hr.
I have always enjoyed teaching people in a one-on-one or small group environment. It allows me to tailor my teaching style to fit the individual student or group I’m working with. I enjoy using creative methods to teach a topic, including creating multiple ways to explain a term or concept and providing analogies to concepts that are familiar to the student. All people comprehend concepts in different ways and at varying speeds. Thus as I teach a concept I am constantly looking for signs of understanding, and then stop and reinforce a concept when it is apparent that the student does not understand. Teaching is a very fluid process, one that requires acute understanding of the challenges students face when learning, and an active process that requires energy and intelligence on the part of the teacher, qualities I believe I possess. I was fortunate to be able to enter college full-t

Daniel K - DeWitt, NY 13214 (7.2 mi) - Government Tutor - $47.50/hr.
As a recent graduate of Le Moyne College with stellar grades, I have achieved a truly remarkable level of education. Though I have only earned a BA in Psychology, I have a very comprehensive knowledge of English literature, composition, history, French, and music theory in addition to a near encyclopedic knowledge of psychology. Though my teaching experience is limited to giving guitar lessons in my spare time, with my vast knowledge and stellar communication skills, I feel confident that if given the chance I could teach or tutor almost anyone in most tough subjects. My method is very student-centered: learn the student's interests, strengths, weaknesses, and needs, and the way to properly teach them anything will be clear as day. I believe very strongly that people best digest knowledge when it's delivered to them "in their own language," and in ways that they can easily identify co

As an elementary teacher, professional development facilitator, and county-level curriculum supervisor, I have spent 33 years providing effective instruction in all subject areas. My work with elementary students focused on providing quality instruction in reading and writing. As a supervisor of language arts, I was responsible for providing instruction to teachers enabling them to be effective instructors of reading, writing, and speaking.

Joseph J - Nedrow, NY 13120 (9.2 mi) - Government Tutor - $50.50/hr.
My teaching style is a combination of techniques I found successful during my educational studies. First, I believe the teacher has to be passionate and have a true love for what he or she is doing; this is passion, or lack thereof, is evident when interacting with a student. Second, patience is of upmost importance. In my experience, nothing inhibits learning as much as a rushed or pressured feeling when one is trying to learn. Finally, it is critical to find a way for the student to relate to the material in a way they understand. Each person is different and the teaching style should reflect that; not everyone fits nicely into a cookie cut template of learning. Every person has the potential to learn anything as long as the opportunity is fairly presented – as a parent of a special needs child, this is something I know very well. I have had many years of educational instructing in a c
