I have been a substitute teacher for grades K-12 since 2001 and worked as a tutor for Siena's Higher Education Opportunity Program. As an educational consultant for 3 years, I coordinated college fairs, campus visits, and taught workshops on Writing the College Application Essay. I won several awards for my undergraduate senior thesis and was inducted into honor societies and "Who's Who Among American Universities and Colleges." I have taken courses in Contemporary American Education, Educational Psychology, Language and Literacy, Developmental Psychology and Collaboration in Educational Settings. My background is exceptionally well-rounded and I am qualified to tutor in a variety of subjects, especially the social sciences and composition. I believe that all children are capable of learning, but many experience barriers that inhibit the learning process. My strategy is to identify thes

Susannah C - Springfield, VT 05156 (30.2 mi) - Sociology Tutor - $38.00/hr.
I find working with children rewarding. I am patent and understanding and cater to individual learning styles. I use my artistic sense to help students visually understand learning. I believe the key to understanding and learning is to make learning fun and memorable. I'm a strong believer in constructivist learning and believe that children need to explore to learn. I started out working as a Head Start teacher's assistant and the following year I was promoted to Head Start teacher and manager. I have also worked as a 1:1 instructional assistant with a high needs student. Currently I worked in a behavior school as an instructional assistant, and I have stepped in to plan curriculum and teach all the classes because the teacher has been on paid leave this year. I also have been commuting to college in Castleton State College from Springfield after work to complete my degree in education.

G Michael S - Claremont, NH 03743 (36.2 mi) - Sociology Tutor - $36.00/hr.
I have a passion for teaching but waited until I gained some "real world" experience. I found that this has helped me relate to my students since I am able to make meaningful connections to their learning. I like to discover what my students already know about the topic and to expose any misconceptions. Brainstorming activities work well for me. I like to help define the topic in common terms, not the classic dictionary method. I use presentation, discussion, videos and hands on activities. Most of what I do is inquiry based.

Marcia M - Canaan, NY 12029 (41.4 mi) - Sociology Tutor - $44.00/hr.
As I read the example noted below, I hear an echo, YES, I too love to teach. I see myself as a mentor. Listening and watching how people learn, what they need to know and formulate the best way to establish a program to achieve their goals. Each individual possesses their way of learning that may be derived from their environment, culture, family or a combination. Whenever possible I try to use diverse medias to experience topics from various views stressing constant feedback to assure comprehension is taking place. Helping individuals advance to the next step by learning is my passion. My mantra is Inquire, Inspire, Educate. After graduating college I taught elementary K-8th grade in NYC. I taught for one year and decided to live Paris, France teaching English. I lived in Paris, France for 1.5 years then moved to Rome, Italy, again teaching English. My experiences were wonderful as I me

Shelley V - Ware, MA 01082 (42.7 mi) - Sociology Tutor - $55.50/hr.
I have over 15 years experience in the Accounting field as well as have owned several successful businesses in the IT industry of which I functioned in the daily business operations and all financial accounting duties. I also homeschooled my children from pre-school up to grade five, as well as taught Sunday school at church for several years. I have also tutored Business classes with a focus on Accounting and Finance at Springfield Technical Community College for my entire senior year. I enjoy getting the student excited about what they are learning by showing them the practical and useful side of what they are being taught. I believe that when learning is fun and students enjoy what they are learning they will do better. I try to use a hands on approach so that the student learns by doing. I provide lots of examples and change my teaching methods according to each students needs.
