I love and respect all children and try to meet them where they
are. I am very perceptive at times and don't give up easy. If
one thing doesn't work, I'd try another. I believe in good
education that develops the person, not just prepare them to
contribute to society and to make a living. Along with 7 other students, I was directly hired out of college
to teach 7th grade English. Along with my 4 years of Latin
experience, it increased my abilities in the grammatical aspect
of the English language. I also tutored college students while I was attending in first yr Latin and math. I took 4 yrs of French in high school, graduated Shenendehowa in 1974. I enjoy
working with kids in small groups or one on one. I am a mother
of 11 children, the youngest is now 7. I also believe I could assist a first year algebra student or younger.

Thomas A - Schenectady, NY 12309 (35.5 mi) - Guitar Tutor - $47.00/hr.
I have always had a strong passion for learning, and nothing blesses me more in a classroom than seeing a student's eyes light up when the proverbial light bulb flashes on. My goal is to encourage a student to move from drudgery to delight in the learning process, and to instill confidence in his or her ability to grasp challenging concepts. To achieve these goals, I employ diligence and focus on the subject matter balanced with creativity and humor where appropriate. My teaching experience includes English/language arts at the high school level in a suburban district, middle school in an urban district, private school and community college as an adjunct instructor. After having subsequently pursued an alternative career in financial services, I am currently operating as a sole proprietor and have continued my classroom instruction experience for the last three years teahing English as a

Paul S - Hannacroix, NY 12087 (38.1 mi) - Guitar Tutor - $47.50/hr.
Because I enjoy and see the wonder in science and I like to show that to students. If they see a reason to want the knowledge, and see how it can expand their horizons, then they will be more open to learning.
A common problem with individuals needing tutoring is that they sometimes do not think they have the "smarts" to learn the subject. My first objective is to show them they have the "stuff" to get it! Then I show them how it can be fun.
This needs to be balanced with the practical need to get passing grades and complete the course work.
My style is marked with a belief in the student and I encourage them and acknowledge their progress. I received a technology degree in 1975. Several years later I returned to college to persue a Physics/Mechanical Engineering Degree from SUNY New Paltz and RPI. I was an "A" student in Physics and enjoyed tutoring many classmates. I was a guest lec

Thomas T - Clifton Park, NY 12065 (39.3 mi) - Guitar Tutor - $47.50/hr.
I believe that no one is too young, or old to learn something new, and my passion for music gives me the desire to share what I know with other people. I understand that everyone learns differently, and I teach each student in the way that appeals to them the most. I am very patient, attentive, and laid back in my lessons. I recognize the importance of having a strong foundation in basic techniques and will provide the structure and direction needed to achieve that goal. As a teacher I get my reward from seeing my students succeed, so I work hard to help them to do so. Most importantly I want my students to have the opportunity to be creative and express themselves, and discover the musician within them. During my undergraduate studies at the Crane School of Music I had the opportunity to perform numerous solo and ensemble recitals, participate in master classes with world renowned music
