More About This Tutor...

My goal as a teacher is to see that each individual harbors the goal to become a life long learner. Many feel that they are not cut out for advanced studies in college, and I like to help that individual find an area that they feel successful in and encourage them to investigate it and see what possible opportunities it can lead them to. Learning takes place not only in classrooms, but outside of them as well. I believe in working with students to find alternative ways of advancing their knowledge. For example, I work with what students are interested in and turn it into lessons. I firmly believe that life experiences open the doors to learning and my goal is to find opportunities to present that.
I am a high school special education teacher with a primary focus on ELA. Currently, I co-teach in integrated classrooms, grades 9, 11, and 12, with regular education teachers and w ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have had the unique opportunity through my diverse educational experiences to work with many different types of people. My initial degree is in Social science from Alfred State University. Throughout my education at Alfred State University I truly believe I began to understand and appreciate others and their differences. I received my second degree from Cortland State University in Early Childhood Education with Inclusion. I had the opportunity to work with many different types of children. I also had many diverse experiences while teaching first grade in Florida. In addition to teaching first grade I was also lucky to be able to tutor children from disadvantaged communities and help them thrive in school.
I am looking to forward to teaching and would like display my skills. I am a very energetic person with the ability to take control of a classroom while producing winning resu ... read more

I have taught in many areas of study. Since I was young, I taught my younger family members the importance of manners, honesty, care, and responsibility. I believe this has carried into my real-life career as a teacher. I have taught at schools such as Hope Hall in Rochester, NY and Lemoyne Elementary in Syracuse, NY. There I helped my students with their basic subject courses during their class time period. I have taught dance at Kami's Kix Dance Studio which has helped me to gain stronger classroom management skills as well as gaining a thicker patience. I am currently attending SUNY Oswego and in 2011 will graduate with a BA in Childhood Education.
You can preach all you want to children, but if you don't teach, there will be no learning. I believe that children will learn from someone they trust to talk to and from someone who they trust to give them the correct answers to the ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I graduated from Finger Lakes Community College with an AA in Elementary Education. I passed the NYS Teacher's Assistant Skills Test in 2006. I worked at BOCES as a tutor. I tutored high school, middle school and elementary school students. I also worked in the BOCES classrooms as a teacher's aide. I worked at BOCES for 3 years. I also worked at Happiness House as a substitute residential aide, and my duties included helping young residents with their homework and reading with them. I must also mention that I helped my own two children with their homework, and now I help their young children with their work.
If I am tutoring a young person I contact the teacher so that I can find out what areas the student needs review in. Many times the teacher will give me the resources and materials to use. Also, I like to use the guide books for each grade that are sold in ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I feel as though every student will have their own niche. They will have a special subject that they enjoy the most and one that they despise. I think that figuring out how the child studies for the subject they enjoy will lead to an understanding of how to motivate that student to learn the subjects that are more difficult for them. Also, if the student's teacher stays positive and pushes him or her towards success by means of positive reinforcement they will succeed.
While studying at SUNY ESF I held a position as a teaching assistant for Western Civilization. This involved grading exams and papers, preparing and giving lectures, and holding office hours to assist students with any questions or concerns they may have had. I also spent time volunteering to teach and after school science club through ESF Outreach for elementary / middle school aged children.

A Little Bit About Me...

I try to relate to the children as best as I can and make the learning fun for them whenever possible. I am easy going, polite and helpful. I also talk to them about other things besides homework and studying, such as personal problems. My students trust me and this makes it easier for me to help them and to teach them. Most of my students were high school freshmen and sophomores.
Currently, I am a systems engineering graduate student at Penn State University. I have earned a bachelor's degree in applied mathematics from SUNY Oswego with minors in applied statistics and philosophy. My last position was as an academic mentor and tutor for AmeriCorps. I have one year of tutoring experience at Hannibal High School in Hannibal, New York. I tutored students in subjects including mathematics, science and history.

With a Bachelor of Science degree in Computer Science, Minor in Mathematics, I accepted a position with Xerox Corporation as an entry-level programmer. During my employment at Xerox, I successfully completed my Master of Science degree and continued to advance in the engineering field. My eight-year career at Xerox gave me invaluable experience in the computer industry field. When I decided to enter the teaching field, I was very fortunate to be accepted into the Roberts Wesleyan “Teachers for Tomorrow” program in which I was able to become a full-time mathematics teacher in the Rochester City School district while obtaining my Masters of Educations degree, and teaching certificates in both mathematics and special education.
My goal as a teacher is to help students learn and understand Math. I believe as a teacher, you want to pass onto your students to excel in whatever they wa ... read more

At the University at Buffalo I worked as a tutor for university students in subjects ranging from English and Spanish to biology and calculus. My BS is in biomedical sciences but I am also a proficient writer and have taken many English courses. I received an award for Outstanding English Student in high school. In addition, I worked for the WHIZard Academy for Mathematics and English in Penfield, NY as a chemistry tutor for a high school student in preparation for the regents exam. I created lesson plans and compiled practice test questions because the company did not possess the materials to properly prepare the student for the exam.
In my experience, most students learn best by practicing the material and get bored listening to long lectures. However, as I learned from students and from a college tutoring course, all students have different styles of learning and I tailor my tea ... read more

As a graduate of a small, liberal arts college, I feel that I have a unique perspective on learning. With over 50 credits for my BS in Biochemistry as well as my “core” (including English, Philosophy, Religion, and History), I consider myself far more well-rounded than other graduates. Because of the small, family-oriented atmosphere I learned in, I appreciate and embody hard work, perseverance, and strong interpersonal relationships. As a student, I became very involved in and took leadership roles in extracurricular activities such as: Chemistry Club – president; Biology Club – vice president; Mens Club Volleyball – co-captain and secretary; and Read for the Stars – co-founder, secretary, and fundraising chair.
Teaching is really what I take pride in and consider myself proficient at. As a co-founder of Read for the Stars, I helped developed a program for at risk, elementary lev ... read more

I have been teaching for 21 years now (wow, that's gone by fast!) and I love every second of what I do. I have also been a tutor in the district for the past 9 years, tutoring every subject possible--math, English, Social Studies, etc. I enjoy tutoring because it allows me to get to know students who don't take French and also I love to teach other subjects outside my own area. Teaching is the best job there is--I get such a great energy from my students every day! I rarely miss a day of school, and I look forward to going in to work every morning. Everyone should be so lucky to have a job they absolutely love!
My teaching style.... depends on the day, depends on the students, depends on the topic. One minute I can be dancing around the room and the next we're having a more serious discussion. My expectations are very high and I always push my students to do "just a bit bet ... read more

I am used to working in a learning environment that stresses academic rigor alongside development of the whole person. I was coordinator of the IB Middle Years Program (MYP) at Casablanca American School, in Morocco, for six years. The International Baccalaureate Organization’s systematic focus upon holistic education, academic rigor, community and service, understanding and respecting differences between people, and awareness of health and environmental issues closely parallel values endorsed by the best U.S. public schools.
I earned my master’s degree through the Philosophy and Social Sciences Department of Teachers College, Columbia University. The focus of my degree was Anthropology and Education, reflecting a life-long interest that has taken me to international schools in various parts of Africa and SW Asia. I have extensive experience as teacher, program coordinator, and adm ... read more

I enjoy teaching and working with all children. I have worked with preschool to grade 5. I am a strong believer of differentiation which incorporates various learning styles and truly meeting the needs of each individual child. All students learn in various ways and each child's education must be tailored to their learning style. I believe all children can be successful if given the right tools and environment. One on one learning creates the most powerful combination for student success and achievement. My goal for my future career in education is focused on how I can make a difference in my students' academic and personal lives.
I am currently finishing my Masters in Inclusive Education grades 1-6 at Nazareth College. I work for a childcare center currently and have a 3 year old daughter. I have participated in various field placements from grades 1-5. I am confident in my abilit ... read more

I believe strongly that any student can be inspired to embrace learning. I have found that meeting students where they are at (academic level) is most crucial to inspiring learning. In additional, centering teaching around specific student needs is equally important. This is a challenge when students feel pressured to pass tests, but it can be done! I embrace an inquiry-based model of teaching/learning.
I have 23 years as a public school teacher in Rochester, NY. I hold a MS in Education in Secondary Social Studies, and a BA in Communications/Journalism. I am very familiar with the New York State Education Department's requirements in the areas of Social Studies and English Language Arts. My grammar and organizational skills are very strong, and I am an excellent writer and editor. The majority of my teaching has been in the area of Secondary Social Studies.
