Katelyn D. - Cicero, NY 13039 (24.3 mi) - Geography Tutor - $12.50/hr.
I really enjoy engaging the student in discussion of the topic and helping them experience the events in History rather than just remembering dates and locations. I am currently pursuing a degree in secondary education with a specialization in American History. I have a passion for the subject and for helping students succeed. I just completed my practicum last fall and was active in a 10th grade World History class for about 10 hours a week. During the summer of 2011 I was employed at girl scout camp in Lake George where I planned and taught History lessons for our weekly programs. I also have worked for the Walt Disney Company, in the Magic Kingdom. While I was there, I was able to do American History trivia and tours for the Liberty Square area.

Shannon M. - Syracuse, NY 13215 (36 mi) - Geography Tutor - $52.50/hr.
My belief is that all students have different learning styles. Therefore lessons need to be individualized to meet student needs. In order to be successful students need to be engaged by creative teachers. My teaching experience has taught me to accommodate these needs when developing lesson plans. I have 15 years of teaching experience with special needs students in a rural school district. During this time i provided private tutoring sessions for Elementary, Middle, High School and College students. At the college level my tutoring experience is with reading, writing, study skills and organization. Currently I develop educational programming for incarcerated youth.

Meghan S - Richland, NY 13144 (9.5 mi) - Geography Tutor - $48.00/hr.
As an Le Moyne College graduate, I was required to become well rounded in a multiple areas of study. I have achieved a BA in History and minor in the German language. The core courses in the Le Moyne curriculum assisted me in becoming well rounded in the areas of philosophy, religion,math and science. Due to writing research papers I have an wide vocabulary and precise grammatical skills. I am currently a 4H club leader and I mentor young girl. I believe that a subject should be presented in a way that is fun for the pupil. I provide a very hands on approach to learning. If the lesson is engaging than I will argue firmly that a lesson can be extracted from the experience. Certain characteristics are important in the tutor to student relationship. The tutor shall be patient,firm,fun and fair. Every child can succeed if provided with the right resources and the utilization of their resourc

Joseph M - Oswego, NY 24236 (19.4 mi) - Geography Tutor - $44.00/hr.
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.

Katie M - Fulton, NY 13069 (21.1 mi) - Geography Tutor - $44.00/hr.
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 their que

Justin W - Clay, NY 13041 (21.4 mi) - Geography Tutor - $45.00/hr.
I engage students by using my energetic, charismatic personality, to inspire them to follow my lead. I also give them personal attention to prove to them that I care. I introduce material using technology and discussions, then reinforce learning with real world examples and groupwork. I show students that learning/school can be enjoyable and doesn't have to be a job. Students quickly find that they enjoy coming to learn from me I worked for 2 years as an 8th grade math teacher, then 7 years as a 6th grade math teacher at Lowville Academy in Lowville,NY. I moved to be with a loved one to Liberty,NY and taught 6th grade math, science, social studies, and english. I recently moved to the central new york area to be closer to family.

Amanda A - Cicero, NY 13039 (23.3 mi) - Geography Tutor - $58.50/hr.
I recognize the importance of a dynamic teaching style- one that adjusts depending on both the subject matter and the student. I am very experienced with addressing procrastination and anxiety. A patient, encouraging, and directed atmosphere is a great aid in learning. Tutoring should take away the distractions of the classroom to enable the student to learn one-on-one, to solidify what is taught in school. I have the tools to help your child succeed, and would love to share in their academic successes. As a recent graduate of the Rutgers-Newark University Honors College, I hold a B.A. in Biology and plan to continue my education in the future. As a member of the Honors College I was exposed to the most rigorous English Literature and History courses, which enabled me to hone my writing skills. In addition, I have extensive experience in the Biological Sciences. While earning my de

Brenda W - Cleveland, NY 13042 (23.4 mi) - Geography Tutor - $46.00/hr.
I attended Houghton College for 2 1/2 years. Then I went to NCCC and earned an AS, then transferred to Charter Oak State College. They took all the credits I had earned as a student at both schools, allowed me to define my degree, told me which additional credits I needed and granted my degree. I have homeschooled my children for 15 years. My oldest is 19 and going to RIT in the fall. He has an AS which he got the week he turned 18. I also have two teens whom I currently school. I have taught them math courses including Algebra and Geometry, American History, writing, reading, etc. I also taught a class in Spanish 1 for other homeschooled students. I am a patient person who is used to tutoring students as that is what homeschooling is. I believe in learning by doing, experiential education. Many students think that they can't do something that is hard, but when it is broken down into

Melanie G - Baldwinsville, NY 13027 (24.1 mi) - Geography Tutor - $44.50/hr.
I am a NYS Certified teacher in Childhood Education (1-6). I have been substituting for one and a half years, and I enjoy it very much. I am halfway through my Master’s program in Literacy at SUNY Oswego. I love working with children, especially in the areas of literacy and math. I have a 5 ½ year old son of my own whom I have helped to become a strong reader. Whether it be for enrichment purposes or getting your child on grade-level, I can give your child a great one-on-one educational experience. My teaching style reflects the need for students to be proud of their own work. They need to believe they are capable of great things. I am firm but caring when working with children. I believe the proper balance of structure and nurture can create a welcoming learning environment. As I work with students, I tune in to what they know, what they don’t know, and what they need to know i

Kadip S - Clay, NY 13041 (24.3 mi) - Geography Tutor - $36.50/hr.
I truly believe in lifelong learning. I take every opportunity to increase my own professional development. As a teacher I like to adapt my teaching style to students individualized abilities. I like to share my experiences with students. Students have a better understanding when you share real world experiences with them. I am dedicated to teaching and enhancing students' ability to learn. I have two masters degrees, MSed in education K-12 reading and MST in Elementary Education. This has allowed me to possess a diversity of teaching backgrounds including a research based computer program called read 180 which consists of small group instruction. I planned and implemented daily lessons for the program. I also was assigned as an Academc Intervention Services classroom teacher working with 3rd, and 6th-8th grade students.

Amanda W - Liverpool, NY 13090 (25.6 mi) - Geography Tutor - $42.50/hr.
Before I was able to tutor, I taught 7 year old girls cheerleading. When I began to tutor, I enjoyed being one on one with the child. I am very patient, punctual and considerate. I know children that need extra help need extra time. I find it personally rewarding to supplament a child's education. I also believe it is easier for a child to ask questions when they are one on one with an educator. Beginning in high school I found myself driven to help children in need. Through my participation in Mercy Action, I raised money for mentally delayed children, and set up numerous barbeques for them. Later, I began tutoring a young brazilian boy in the 5th grade. He needed help with all of his studies, especially math and english. As a political science major, I have gained experienced in essay writing, grammatical skills and research methods.

Brandon C - Baldwinsville, NY 13027 (25.8 mi) - Geography Tutor - $49.50/hr.
I'm very laid back and patient when it comes to teaching. I can empathize with students who have difficulty in a subject because at one point in my educational career I had trouble and needed help. I do believe that almost every one is capable of learning and progressing, given the right opportunity. It makes me feel great to help someone achieve their goals. I'm a personal trainer, which is very similar to tutoring. I love seeing people improve because of my assistance. Many people have helped me get to where I am today and I want to give back to the younger cohort. I'm a leader, I want to lead students in the right direction. It means a lot to me to make a positive difference in this world, and it starts with education of our youth. As a Syracuse University graduate, I studied at the Maxwell School and the Whitman School of management. Maxwell is recognized worldwide for its experti

Tina D - Baldwinsville, NY 13027 (25.9 mi) - Geography Tutor - $46.00/hr.
I have taught now for 5 years. 6th grade for 2, 5th grade for 2, and tutored as well as substitute taught for several districts in the area. I recently graduated from SUNY Oswego with a MSed in literacy, grades B-6 and have a BS in childhood education. I establish a rapport with my students and their parents, with the understanding that their needs are my primary concern. Lesson preparation is extensive, with goal setting in mind at all times. I have high expectations for my students. Student achievement, in and out of the classroom, is a personal goal. Because I was a "non-tradional" student, one with my own children, I knew several things from the start: first and foremost, I will always treat students the way I wish my own children are treated by their teachers. In addtion, I have an understanding that not all children, nor adults, learn the same and need to be offered a variety of ex
