Brian N - Syracuse, NY 13214 (19.8 mi) - GRE Tutor - $45.00/hr.
I was fortunate to be able to enter college full-time at the age of fourteen. This gave a great opportunity to pursue a wide variety of interests and still graduate slightly ahead of my peers. As a result I had almost completed the requirements for majors in several subjects, including chemistry, German, music and the subject I received my degree in, biology. In addition to taking courses in these subjects, I was able to work as a German tutor for over a year and as a teaching assistant for two sections of first semester organic chemistry. I have always enjoyed teaching people in a one-on-one or small group environment. It allows me to tailor my teaching style to fit the individual student or group I’m working with. I enjoy using creative methods to teach a topic, including creating multiple ways to explain a term or concept and providing analogies to concepts that are familiar to t

Adeniyi A - Syracuse, NY 13206 (20.4 mi) - GRE Tutor - $48.00/hr.
I love to teach by arousing the thinking faculty of my students with questions that makes them think in the line of the subject. Use of illustrations, applying the subject being discussed to real life situations, one that students can relate with, is a very handy tool for me and has worked very well over the years. Thorough explanation, an encompassing summary and point tags on core areas of the subject are vital tools in making subject stick to the mind of students. Teaching is a natural talent for me. I started teaching Mathematics in 2000, just after graduating high school in 1999. I was a class teacher for Gideon Primary School, Lagos Nigeria and taught Mathematics on the secondary level in Gideon Comprehensive High School, same location. I was a foreign examinations' instructor for Trinity International college where I trained students for exams like TOEFL, GMAT and GRE. All throug

Michael R - Sauquoit, NY 13456 (21 mi) - GRE Tutor - $47.50/hr.
My first career was as a Registered Professional Nurse (NYS licensure) for 25 years. During those years, I kept up my interest in various fields of math, such as Abstract Algebra, Differential equations, and topology. I was especially interested in algebraically-capable computer math programs. I,eventually, went back to school for my Mathematics degree as part of a long-standing interest in and commitment to Mathematics. I presently teach students who are "at risk" in the 7th through 12th grades and have done so for the last 10-11 years at OHM-BOCES. I have tutored the NYS Math B course for 5 years as well as the current NYS Algebra I/II courses. All children are students; they can learn. The question is how best do they learn? I have used many differing styles from rote memorization through self-paced self-education. I encourage students to see the wonder and "mystery" (there re

Derek P - Rome, NY 13440 (22.1 mi) - GRE Tutor - $48.00/hr.
As a graduate of the University of Rochester, I have obtained a Bachelor's Degree in Political Science. Aside from this, I also have a minor in Economics, as well as a concentration in English. Throughout this coursework I have written numerous research papers and essays, and as a result I believe I have very strong written, grammatical, and reading comprehension skills. I have a thorough knowledge of English and literature, as well as economics and political science. I believe it is very important to be constructive and patient when it comes to teaching. I believe that I am thoughtful, patient, considerate, and compassionate when it comes to teaching. I feel that it is extremely important not to give the student all the answers, but to assist them so they are able to use reasoning to figure out the solutions themselves. I feel that it is very possible that one person can be able to help

Joseph J - Nedrow, NY 13120 (22.9 mi) - GRE Tutor - $50.50/hr.
I have had many years of educational instructing in a classroom environment with my previous employment positions. I have filled the role of new hire trainer, technical instructor, and professional development program design manager. In all of these roles I had the opportunity to teach / train on various levels in both a one-on-one setting as well as a group setting. I have a passion for teaching and love sharing my knowledge with others. Tutoring would allow me to take my training experience to the next level and would be another step forward towards my ultimate goal of teaching full-time. My teaching style is a combination of techniques I found successful during my educational studies. First, I believe the teacher has to be passionate and have a true love for what he or she is doing; this is passion, or lack thereof, is evident when interacting with a student. Second, patience is of up

David T - norwich, NY 13815 (26.1 mi) - GRE Tutor - $48.00/hr.
I have always wanted students to really know the material being covered. This has meant keeping their interest through jovial yet concentrated lesson planning. I have always strived to make my students feel comfortable and to take on the responsibility for their own learning. Much too often Educators show students how to answer questions rather than helping the student learn how to handle new scenarios. This is the essence of my teaching: helping students see the big picture so that they can handle any new scenario. My classroom always has many things going on at once, which is a direct result of the student driven learning and presenting. I received my Bachelor's degree in 1989 and worked as an assistant engineer in Binghamton NY until I started my masters program at SUNY Cortland. I have held Physics, Earth science, Chemistry and Biology appointments in the years that followed in a

Michelle P - Ilion, NY 13357 (30.8 mi) - GRE Tutor - $42.50/hr.
I have been a teacher for over six years. I have taught and/or tutored subjects ranging from elementary reading and math to high school math and science. I am permanently certified in New York State to teach Biology and general science. In addition, I am pursuing certificates in both physics and math. I like to combine both direct instruction and hands-on activities when teaching. I believe that allowing students to apply their learning to real-life situations helps them to both find meaning in their learning and attach the learning to a memorable experience.
I get really excited about the subjects that I teach and my excitement carries over to my students. And, when students are excited about what they are learning, they want to continue to learn more about that particular subject.

Valrie V - Richfield Springs, NY 13439 (34.1 mi) - GRE Tutor - $45.50/hr.
I believe all students can learn and that it is up to the educator to discover the students' learning styles and then meet their needs. Foremost learning should be fun and meaningful.I create a safe environment, where students are inviited to learn, and have experience with mixed ability levels. I teach to the top, and differentiate instruction with intervention strategies to accomplish these goals. Students in my classrooms are empowered to learn and set personal goals for achieving growth.I use a constructivist approach: reflection response journals, reciprocal teaching strategies, and varying assesments to measure growth. Kappa Delta Pi graduate with a 4.00 GPA in Reading MSE and Elementary Education.

Changhao Y - Ithaca, NY 14850 (47 mi) - GRE Tutor - $47.50/hr.
As a Cornell graduate of Biomedical Engineering, I was able to learn about a variety of subjects and gain a better understanding of multiple types of math and science. As an instructor for the Cornell ballroom dance team, I have taught classes for two years in addition to my tutoring in math and science for another two years. I have written up multiple laboratory reports and research papers as well as a final Master's project. My students enjoy my teaching style and I would be happy to be your instructor. I really enjoy working with all people, I understand that everyone has a learning style, but above all you have to work hard to get to the next level. I am patient, thoughtful and willing to offer my support. I think it's important to summarize the important parts of the subject and then have the student remember them and focus on how to manipulate those parts into useful problem s

Kimberly C - Ithaca, NY 14850 (48.6 mi) - GRE Tutor - $46.50/hr.
I like children to learn through exploring. This is not to say that I do not teach, but I plan lessons in a way that allows students to learn at their own pace. I feel like if I can put together a lesson that gives children a motivation to learn, they will learn on a deeper level than if I am merely telling them information. With my middle school math students whom I tutored, this meant that we learned about fractions through art. It was not enough to explain to them how fractions worked, I realized that they needed to experience fractions. We spent the same amount of time as the regular class did on fractions, but my students were able to better explain their work. I have experience across the boards. I have taught students from the first grade level to the college level. I have earned a BA and an MA, both in Physics with a focus on education, but opted to take all of my elective

Michelle S - Ithaca, NY 14850 (49.4 mi) - GRE Tutor - $45.50/hr.
Throughout my education I've had a drive to teach. While earning my BS in chemistry with minor in biology I assisted many fellow students by acting as both a laboratory assistant and as a tutor in general chemistry and organic chemistry. My teaching experience continued into my post-graduate career where I acted as a Teaching Assistant primarily responsible for teaching 2 to 3 organic chemistry laboratory sections per semester. Because of my course of education as well as my continuous participation in teaching I've had ample experience helping prepare students for exams as well as writing research papers and laboratory reports. During my undergraduate career I discovered my passion for teaching. I also discovered that being an educator in the sciences is particularly tricky because it deals with some of the most abstract information with seemingly little real world application. Most peo

Sahil P - Ithaca, NY 14850 (49.4 mi) - GRE Tutor - $47.50/hr.
I love teaching. Tutoring has been my favorite job so far, and although I was unable to continue working with Tutor.com due to time restrictions, I now am free to work with students and would like to tutor again. I am extremely patient with students, and my solid understanding of subject matter allows me to think of multiple ways in which I can help a student through a problem. Many people describe engineers as socially backwards, but I am extremely well-spoken and am great at communicating my ideas. I am a firm believer that anybody can grasp any concept they want as long as they are given time and guidance to reach their own understanding. I have a tremendous amount of experience in many math and science classes. I have graduated from Cornell with As and high Bs in all of my general requirement math and science classes, including AP Chemistry, AP Biology, AP Physics 1,2, AP Calculus, M
