Become a star, through dedication and desire to succeed!!

I have taught in both suburban schools at the high school level and urban schools at the elementary/middle school level. While teaching I previously have tutored students. My main experience teaching has been various science courses but I have also taught math and reading. I began my education thinking I would be an elementary school teacher but then discovered my love of science so I took additional classes while completing my Master's so I could be certified to teach science. When I began teaching I realized many special education students were not receiving the appropriate accommodations to ensure their success so I decided to specialize in Special Education as I pursue my PhD so I can offer the best education to my students and help them become successful and feel confident with their new skills.
I love interacting with my students and finding out what drives them and what ... read more

My comments on tutoring Marine Biology : Subject that I have taught as an elective subject.

I was employed by the Lakeland Central School District as a substitute Teacher Aide and later in a full time capacity. I worked for the OASIS Program and later at the Alternative High School. After completing my Bachelor's Degree at Concordia College, I applied for and was accepted into the New York City Teaching Fellows Program. I taught Special Education at a high needs urban high school in the Bronx. This was a challenging and rewarding experience. Many of my students continued on to post secondary schools. I am currently finishing my Master's degree program at City College of New York, expected graduation is May 2013.
I have a varied style, which is geared to the learning style of my students. I teach world to text, text to text, text to life.

I would consider my teaching style to be very organic and adaptable. I consider each student individually, and I evaluate what works best for that student in particular. I am trained in various forms of teaching, and I have a complete understanding of the various learning personalities and characteristics of students that I have worked with and will work with in the future.
I began mentoring students during my tenure at Regis High School, a private, full-scholarship-only high school in New York City at the age of 17. After attending Villanova University and Fordham University's Graduate School of Business Administration, I began tutoring part-time with Studypoint. I have tutored over 30 different students in nearly all academic areas, including SAT, ACT, ISEE, SSAT and Academic Programs for grades K-12. I am currently a law student at Pace Law School in White Plains, NY, and I woul ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

As a life long learner myself, I understand the practical use of the information I teach and try to help students understand the detail that leads to a "big picture" understanding of the topic and how it relates to the professional world as well. I believe in self discovery by the student by my guidance and the use of examples so they can be applied easily to problems the student my encounter in their own life.
As a current Director of Health for a large City in Connecticut, I have learned the value of education and the use of my technical skills to communicate with my residents and help them improve their health as well. I have earned multiple degrees in Public Health, Experimental Pathology, Soil and Environmental Sciences. These degrees were both the foundation for my profession and the avenue for my understanding of Epidemiology and applied Statistics. During the past 10 years ... read more

My classroom lessons and activities are created around the belief that children learn best by doing. I choose to go beyond the traditional science classroom and provide a dynamic and engaging classroom environment focused on students. I choose to be the navigator, guiding students through the learning process, rather than being the process itself. By providing the support and encouragement, I hope that my students will move from being dependent on the instructor for information to being the seeker of knowledge. Regardless of their chosen path, every child will learn during their time with me and create a foundation of knowledge from which to build.
During my four years of college, I learned an extensive degree of time management. I was a full time biology student with an education certification attached, a softball player (captain for last two years), and a supervisor at a loc ... read more

I am dedicated to the belief that every child can succeed. This starts with developing a rapport with the student, engaging their interests, and using problem solving to emphasize talents that will build confidence and allow them to work independently to reach their potential. Secondly I believe that the student can develop specific skills that can help them master areas of difficulty as well as advanced subjects. Finally as someone who has worked in the science field I feel that the tools that science provides are tremendously empowering and seeing their transformative effect on all students is why I enjoy teaching.
I am an enthusiastic educator passionately committed to effective teaching and life-long learning. I am a graduate of Middlebury College with a Major in Biology and with extensive coursework in both physics and chemistry. During my career as a science illustrator I ... read more

I never give up on a child. I also never push a child on any task that are really difficult for him or her. Time and patience is an important factor in teaching and tutoring. More often, as a teacher it is my duty to really know my students and the best way to approach their learning abilities. I have taught in a classroom setting for so many years, and it is sometimes frustrating to teach a concept that the curriculum as mandated by the state must be forced into a child no matter what. It is up to the teacher then to make adjustments, changes and flexible evaluations without watering it down that could be workable across the board. I often do this and the results are more than successful.
Being a teacher in the middle school has given me the drive and the energy to pursue different avenues of the teaching and learning process. My passion for Science and for Math has given me ... read more

Educational Philosophy Teacher-directed classroom management is most closely aligned with my beliefs in the beginning of a school year because I want the students to understand that I am the leader of the classroom and that ultimately I am responsible for what transpires in the classroom. As the school year progresses, it is my belief that the classroom should continue to evolve with a student-centered approach with an emphasis on students vesting in learning as much as they can from inquiry and from each other. I want to shape a positive learning environment where students are excited about working to their own potential.

I believe in giving others the opportunity to live out thier full potential. Education gives someone the opportunity to develop and gain the freedom to make intelligent choices. As we are all different, there is a need for approaches that would enable to grasp whatever is being taught. I have and will continue to contribute to helping others learn in any necessary capacity.

As a graduate student a Johns Hopkins University, I have acquired a love of learning of biology. I also have two academic degrees from Boston University. I have a strong grasp of many of the subcategories in biology. I would highly value the opportunity to share with youngsters my appreciation of this field of study. I would like nothing better than to see them excel!
I enjoy the learning process. I believe that tutoring is essential to guide students for growth and development of young minds. I love the challenge of finding the roadblocks that hinder learning and make the subject come together for the student. I enjoy seeing a sense of pride in their accomplishment. As a volunteer for NY Cares, I have helped many students feel good about themselves after they have accomplished their goal whatever that may be.

I have experience teaching Chemistry, Biology and Earth Science. I am a native Italian and French speaker, having been born to Franco-Italian parents in Montreal, Quebec, the second largest French speaking city in the world. I have years of teaching experience at the college and high school levels. I am NY State Certified to teach Science at the high school level.

I have also taught (LIU, Yeshiva University (YU)) the one-year General Chemistry sequence using a more traditional lecture and lab approach. At YU, this involved using an inquiry-based laboratory with modules on a certain theme requiring increased independent thought and critical thinking. At LIU, I have taught undergraduate General Chemistry and Analytical Chemistry (Quantitative-with lab) and graduate Analy ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I believe that there is no one standardized method to teach, rather each individual is unique in their learning abilities. Therefore, while teaching I often gauge how a student is reacting to the lesson they are being taught. Once I have determined what the best teaching strategy is for that individual, I like to write down in detail what steps were taken to reach that solution. By doing this, the student can use these steps as a guide for reassurance. Finally, I encourage the student to use repetition, thereby building confidence in knowing that they have successfully tackled the issue and can continue to do so in the future.
During my time in SUNY Buffalo I took a wide variety of classes which have exposed me to different fields. Specifically, I excelled in those subjects relating to math and writing. As a result of my success, I was able to tutor my peers who were taking t ... read more

I have always been fascinated with research. After I graduated from Medical School, I gained a passion with research that drove me to far corners of the earth in search of answers to my questions. I developed along with colleagues a device that was able to treat successfully different types of bloodborne pathologies, including viral and bacterial pathogens. I graduated in 1991 as a Medical Doctor, and as such, I received a doctoral degree from my Alma Mater, Universidad Central Este, San Pedro de Macoris. I have a lot of experience in teaching, and this is what I want to do for the rest of my career. I love Biology, and I have a temporary certificate from Florida as a Biology Instructor.
