Logic Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Marcy, NY

I am a firm believer that every person, child or adult, learns differently. I am very devoted to finding out how that person learns the best and then teaching in a manner that allows for the individual to learn. I graduated from college in 2008 to pursue my career as an accountant. I got a great job that provided me with great experience. After working there for some time I decided to opoen my own accounting firm which I can say is going great. I would love to help others understand the great benefits one can gain from having some accounting knowledge. Math is also a great passion of mine.

I started off college at Mohawk Valley Community College and earned a Liberal Arts and Science degree. I feel that all college students should be well rounded and should take a wide variety of courses. I then enrolled at Utica College to finish my BS degree. Over those two years, I took 18 science courses and most of them were accompanied by labs. It was stressful and difficult but it was something I was determined to complete. I thought I wanted to go to medical school, but later decided against it. Also during my time at Utica College, I conducted medical research with Aspartame and Omeprazole on mice. I spent some time writing these up to be submitted for journals. The instructor and I are on a hiatus from this project. I completed an internship with the Masonic Medical Research lab in the summer of 2006. I worked in the Molecular Genetics Lab. In the summer of 2008, I began working w

Learning and teaching is my passion. In high school it ws teachers with the same passion that made learning fun and encouraged me to achieve academic success. Most any subject can be made interesting if approached the right way. Mostly it is about patience and good respectful communication. I especially cherish working with young children who are usually starving for real knowlege, but are lacking the opportunity to engage their minds in a meaningful way. I have found that with kids, you get back in effort what you put in. In college, I in part supported myself by tutoring in math and organic chemistry. I have earned a BS in Biology and a Doctorate in Medicine (but I am retired from clinical practice). My education has given me expertise in the areas of biology, chemistry, math and anatomy. I have supplemented this knowlege with self study in grammar and creative writing. I have won writ

All students have different learning styles, and the greatest advantage of one-on-one tutoring or small-group learning sessions is that the instruction can be adopted to each individual student's needs. I am patient and observant, and encourage students to learn in ways that suit them best. As far back as I can remember, I have always helped the people around me with their schoolwork: classmates, friends, family, anyone who is struggling unnecessarily. I enjoy teaching, and have been tutoring on a professional basis for well over 10 years now. I specialize in college level mathematics, but I have also tutored students in physics, chemistry, computer science, economics, engineering, and any related fields. I have tutored students in elementary school, high school, undergraduate and graduate level college, and occasionally professionals in need of assistance with some aspect of their work.

I have more than 30 years experience working in many aspects of the Information Technology field. My job titles run the gamut of Application Programmer, System Programmer, System Analyst, Software Engineer, Department Manager, Director of IT, and IT Consultant. Industrywise, I’ve enjoyed working in Manufacturing, Distribution, Retail, Product Development, and Health Care. Also, I’ve had an avocation working with youth through the American Youth Soccer Organization as a coach, official, and administrator. Life moves fast, learn and enjoy as much as you can. I teach with enthusiasm and enjoyment. A large whiteboard or table space for legal pads is a must. Students need to visualize concepts to grasp them. All errors are learning experiences, life is 'trial and error'.

I believe that people have different preferred learning styles. Some are visual learners, some audio, some physical, and some use pure intellect. Often, class size prohibits even very good educators from catering to the need of each individual's learning style. It is therefore my job to present subject matter by whatever means necessary for my client's learning to flourish, and to facilitate their mastery of the material at hand. The summer after my 8th grade year was my first experience teaching. It was there that I facilitated the younger children's use of the computer facilities during a summer reading program. After that I tutored Math, Earth Science, Physics, and Philosophy to other undergrads at my college's Learning Center. More recently I have been a coach of my own children's baseball and football teams, and a volunteer tutoring math and science at a local private scho

I enjoy being creative in the classroom. I try to develop activities that will help my students master the material but also enjoy learning. I also think it is critical to get to know your students both in and out of the classroom. This helps you to better know their interests so you are able to use these to develop appropriate lessons. I have always loved mathematics and during high school I knew I wanted to work with children. During my senior year of high school I completed the Regional Program of Excellence through BOCES. This experience made me determine that becoming a teacher was what I wanted to do. I attended Siena College from September of 2005 until May of 2009. I am currently working on my Master's Degree at Utica College in their Leadership and Instruction in Inclusive Classrooms program.

As an Honors Student at Utica College, and as a past tutor, I feel very comfortable in the teaching setting. My long term goal is to enter the doctorate program at Syracuse University so that I may teach at the college level in the future. My BS in accounting with CPA concentration has given me the knowledge and skills that would allow me to be an excellent tutor in the specific area. In the last five years, I have tutored math, accounting, macro and micro economics. As a recent college graduate, I understand the difficulties that students face when they confronted with a subject that proves difficult for them to master. In the past five years of my college education I have also mastered the art of writing effective term and research papers using proper citation styles. I have always enjoyed tutoring, and I look forward to becoming a professor at the college level. I really enjoy tutorin

Throughout my 22+ year career in the insurance industry, I have been involved in the education and training of others. I have also been a member of our Company's "Partners in Education" program, which allows me the opportunity to speak to local area middle and high school students. On top of that, I am a proud father of four children, all of whom excel in their coursework. In my current role as a financial analyst, I work with data and statistics on a daily basis. I thoroughly enjoy working with children. In addition to help raise my own children, I have coached from the elementary to the high school level for close to 20 years. Also, during a leave from work for medical reasons, I served as a substitute teacher in the local school district. I am a very patient and compassionate teacher, and seek opportunities to help others improve themselves. I truly believe that teaching is a n

I have tutored at Clinton Senior High School in the past as a member of the National Honor Society. I am extremely proficient with mathematics having received a BS in mechanical engineering and a minor in mathematics. I did a lot of my school work in groups at college as well, so I am extremely good at working with others and know how to help people work out solutions to problems in order to figure out the answer. I have also played a great number of team sports, and have no problem working well and associating with others. My teaching style would be to help the student formulate the problem, enabling them to arrive at the final solution by themselves. If he/she had trouble with this, I would give hints allowing them to find the correct answer. I am also very good with tips at remembering things, especially in math, which I would tell the student so they could have a better grasp of

I enjoy teaching and working with children. I am patient, understanding, and considerate. I believe there are many different styles of learning and I strive to incorporate them into my teaching. I am a firm believer in teaching through discovery and in providing a constructivist approach to learning. I believe all children can meet their potential if they are given the appropriate surroundings and learning experiences. I strive to make a difference in all of my students' lives. I received my Associates degree in adolescence education and my Bachelors degree in Physics and Mathematics (double major), all while carrying a grade point average of 3.2. In addition, I have learned extensive grammatical skills due to writing research papers and laboratory reports, along with essays in many various areas of study. During the last four months I have been a substitute teacher for the Rome City Sch

Compasionate and understanding. I like to approach the root cause of the problem. All children have the ability to learn, however not all people have the ability to learn using the cookie cutter approach that most schools use. Patience is one of my key attributes. Understanding the child is key to success as a teacher, and I try to follow that rule at all times. I also believe that organization and routine help continue good study habits into the future. I look forward to working with you and your children! I have a tremendous amount of experience working with children of all ages. My passion is teaching and counseling. I have taught in the Head Start Program and at a DOD school in the special education preschool. I have also worked with parents on parenting skills and helped them to better assist their children in learning. I also have knowlege and experience in foreign language

When ever possible I use a hands on approach then I move into a symbol representastion.

Both of my parents were teachers and I find myself sharing my knowledge with anyone who seems to need it. I have instructed the ladies in my craft group, answered questions posted online, and tried to instill some basic computer upkeep knowledge in the people who've asked me for help with their personal computers. I loved explaining the world to my children and I miss the joy and wonder of a child who has just understood something for the first time. Although my BS degree is in Computer Science, I have taken (and passed!) courses in Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, and Computer Engineering - which means I have learned a lot of advanced math. My work as a software developer required writing "white papers" to explain and describe our software as well as test documents that would allow a person unfamiliar with our software to sit down and formally test it.
