Hearing Impaired is one of my top subjects! I recently graduated with honors from the National Technical Institute for the Deaf. I graduated with a BS in American Sign Language interpreting. Through 4 years of rigorous study, I learned American Sign Language, PSE, as well as Cued Speech. I have interacted with and interpreted for a multitude of Deaf and hard of hearing people. I have worked with deaf and hard of hearing children, as well as Deaf and hard of hearing adults. I have also worked with deaf and hard of hearing people with a variety of disabilities. I have taken several Deaf-taught classes on Deaf Culture, as well as classes on Deaf oppression.

I have always had a passion for learning. Part of my passion includes helping others learn, grow, and succeed. As an undergraduate student, I volunteered as a Peer Mentor in order to help new students become accustomed to their classes. I also worked as a Peer Mentor for students who were struggling with their grades. Peer Mentors are carefully selected by Rochester Institute of Technology through a detailed application process. I volunteered as an English tutor, as well as a proofreader of essays, research papers, and projects. I have had the opportunity to work at a daycare for several years with children ranging from 6 weeks of age to 12 years. I have loved being able to help these children grow, learn, and succeed in their education. As a tutor, my specialties are American Sign Language and English. My undergraduate studies were in American Sign Language-English interpreting ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I received my Bachelor's Degree from Houghton College and my Master's Degree from SUNY Brockport. I have taught in an Elementary School for 9 years. I taught second grade for four years and kindergarten for the last five. I have also tutored on and off for the past four years. I also attend 30 hours of professional development every year.
From my experience I know that students learn in many different ways. As a teacher and a tutor I find out how each child learns. I then develop interesting lessons that meet each child's specific needs. It is important that the children are actively involved in their own learning process. I like to make lessons hands on and thought provoking.

More About This Tutor...

I believe all children have the ability to succeed in their academic career. By being patient, upbeat, and interested in their topic of study, children will not have a problem taking risks in their learning. Science is learned through exploration. I believe a hands-on activity is the best approach to learning any subject.

As a non-traditional, graduate of Nazareth of Rochester, it has become very clear why an excellent education is clearly the only way to achieve autonomy, which I believe is crucial to all. I earned my dual-certification and Bachelor's Degree in Regular Education and Special Education. Because my own son had learning disabilities, I earned my Master's in Reading. I have worked with the Rochester City School District for 8 years. This experience has given me the opportunity to be involved with very diverse learning styles and abilities.
The following is my personal philosophy of education: I believe that all children have the to ability to learn. A student's curriculum should be integrated with multiple-intelligences in mind. It is crucial for students to be able to make personal connections in their learning. Good teaching means engaging students in meaningul dialogue, text and ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Working with children is my dream job. I am a firm believer in "no child left behind." I have taught many students with special needs, and I am a compassionate and patient teacher. I am also very persistent in regards to my students completing their work, as their education is very important to me. I like to have a good working relationship with my students, and I think humor is an important element to add to my lessons. Making a difference in a child's life is vital, and I have accomplished this by helping high school students complete their graduation requirements, and by aiding children in catching up with their school work and earning passing grades.

A Little Bit About Me...

I believe that every child is entitled to an education within a safe and nurturing environment, which is reflected in my own classrooms. I am passionate about teaching my students the skills and tools they need to one day pursue knowledge on their own. A teacher knows his/her students as individuals with their own set of experiences, needs, strengths and weaknesses and recognizes these needs, teaching in a manner that is conducive to the individual child’s learning style. I believe that I can accomplish this by designing differentiated lessons that incorporate my student’s skills and the various intelligences. I am applying for this position for many reasons. This learning can be assessed to evaluate student needs and understanding, as well as teacher effectiveness. It is important that in each classroom I am also learning by constantly reflecting and evaluating my methods. It is becaus ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I firmly believe teaching requires structure. In that regard, the learning process requires a sequences of steps. Firstly, the student must understand the problem to be solved or the skill to be acquired. Secondly, examples are required to show how to approach and solve a prolem. Lastly, overarching concepts can be introduced to unitfy that which is new with that which is already understood. This approach has succesfully trained and kept the interest of all individuals that I have mentored.
As an individual involved in advanced development activities at Eastman Kodak, I had the opportunity to apply my knowledge of science into product development and I also had the opportunity to train other individuals in the workings of a new product as that product became commercialized and a large staff of engineers and technicians were needed for the product's manufacture.

A Little Bit About Me...

Once in a classroom I realized that I was meant to teach. I love working with students who are challenging and those who challenge me. I believe that I can become a better teacher only by continually challenging myself and my students. The key phrase “engaging students” seems less than what is required in the classroom. I want my students to be engaged but I want them to encompass and enjoy what they are doing as well. I love technology and new method topics; I have a very strong math and science background as well as excellent written and verbal presentation skills. I was a hands on learner and often use hands on methods to teach when possible. I have taught every level from kindergarten to college level and feel comfortable doing so.
I am interested in tutoring because I love teaching regardless of the subject matter. I’ve been lucky enough to be given the opportunity to try se ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

My experience in teaching has come from various settings. I have taught preschool fitness classes and dance classes. I have also substituted in grades 1-6, in reading and special education. I have student teaching experience in inclusive classrooms for 3rd and 6th grade. I have taken classes in language in literacy and worked with many reading programs.
As a special education teacher, I have learned many strategies to help stuggling learners that I believe would benefit any student. I also believe that every child has the right to succeed and I am dedicated to making sure that happens. I believe in hands-on teaching,and that students learn best by doing. In the area of reading, I believe that it is my duty to foster a love of reading in my students, so that they can become successful.
