A Little Bit About Me...

I teach through an experiential model which means that you will learn by doing as much as possible and I will base new instruction on things you already know. I am a very patient person and will review and reteach as many times as necessary so that you feel confident in your understanding. I truly believe that learning is fun and exciting and I look forward to showing you that it can be.

Whenever I have been recruited to help someone in the past I have been a firm beleiver in less is more. Though it is important for the person to understand what he/she is reading or writing it is important to shadow their work instead of smothering them. I always feel for both myself and others that learning comes from doing and trying by ones self, and asking for help only when needed. Of course this style is useless if the explanations and guidance that go with it are not clear and fascilitate the process for the student.
Still fresh out of college I have been looking for an area to exercise my expertise in writing and my knowledge of literature. Although I have no formal experience in a teaching position I do believe an opportunity in tudoring would be great experience for me and beneficial to those I can help. And I cannot say I have official experience tudoring students I ... read more

More About This Tutor...

Teaching is a passion of mine. I love teaching and working with children. I strongly believe all children can learn, but in different ways. It is very important to find what works for each child. My goal is to give 100% to each student and expect 100% in return. All students are able to shine when they are given learning experiences that are appropriate. I excel in making a difference in all of my students'.
I have earned my Bachelor Degree in Psychology/Elementary Education and I am currently certified to teach Birth-6th grade. Over the past five years, I have taught Kindergarten, First, Third, Fifth and Sixth grades. Each of these experiences has helped me to grow professionally and personally. Each experience has been wonderful!!

A Little Bit About Me...

I love teaching. I always get well prepared before I sit down with someone. A couple of hours of preparation beforehand can make the difference between a tedious, unproductive experience and one that encourages the student and makes the excited about learning. I try to help with sticking points and not to lecture. I have discovered that people tend to remember answer to their questions and if I try to explain a deeper meaning it will only bore them and make them less interested.
At the University of Illinois at Chicago I earned a bachelor's of science degree in electrical engineering and worked as a teaching assistant for three sememsters of graduate school. After leaving the university I tutored former students from my labs in math, science, engineering, and programming. I did this as hobby. I enjoy working with students. I am currently helping someone working on a master' ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

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.

A Little Bit About Me...

My method of educating and teaching style derives from a simple philosophy that experience has the most profound effect on learning. Therefore I always begin my approach by identifying ways in with I can match demonstration to the particular personality of the individual I am teaching. I infuse experiential examples into the textbook explanations to create a more tangible presentation of the information. My objective is to get the student to connect with familiar ideas, emotions, and experiences. I have the ability to simplify and customize the information compatible with the learning styles of the individual.

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 t ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

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 ... read more

I believe that all children learn differently. Some children need more of a hands on approach while others are more visual and still others learn just by memorizing facts. I believe in finding that way that each child learns best and helping them reach their potential. I enjoy seeing children get excited when they "get something" and I am glad to be able to help them reach that point.
As a teaching major, I did my student teaching during my last semester of college (in kindergarten and third grade). This was in the spring of 2008. The next fall (2008), I was a substitute teacher for 4 months and then I was hired as a preschool teacher (in January of 2009). I taught as a preschool teacher for 10 months and then went back to substitute teaching (in October 2009) and have been substitute teaching since then. These experiences have taught me how to teach a variety of grade levels (from ... read more
