Stephanie S. - Rochester, NY 14607 (1.6 mi) - Continuing Education Tutor - $32.50/hr.
After finishing Graduate School, I immediately began working as a 7th Grade Summer School English Teacher. Along with a one month Long-Term Substitute position teaching 9th and 11th grade English and Advanced English, I was prepared to take on a full-time role. Now as a full-time English Language Arts Support Study Teacher, I work closely with small groups of students to help improve their ELA skills and their general study skills to help improve their overall educational performance. I believe that each student has a unique learning style and therefore, teachers must develop a unique approach to each an every student. By providing a comfortable learning environment, students feel more open to share and learn. Trust and respect between teacher and student is essential for the best learning to take place. With a student-centered approach, each individual can gain the most from their t

I described most of that in the above category. I can only add that I taught one-on-one, coached and conducted small ensembles, worked with groups of 100+ as a clinician or guest artist. I enjoyed all these levels of contact. I was a professor at Ithaca College for 34 years in the music department. In that capacity I taught private performance lesson, coached chamber ensembles, conducted various ensembles. supervised and coached student teachers, performed in a faculty artist-in-residence quintet, performed solo recitals, assisted students in writing essays, resumes, and applications for positions in the teaching field or graduate studies. I also had many experiences helping students through difficult academic and personal issues. As a private teacher meeting individually with a student for an hour each week, I became the main academic and personal adviser for them. I found all of

Jeffrey R - Rochester, NY 14610 (2.9 mi) - Continuing Education Tutor - $59.00/hr.
I have always aspired to adapt my teaching techniques to each student on an individual basis. I have been successful in doing so by utilizing a vast array of methodologies to instruct and provide examples which are relevant to each unique student. I believe there is no greater reward than unlocking each individual's potential for academic interest and success. Throughout my academic career, I have been motivated to achieve at a high level, regardless of the discipline I was studying. This motivation has allowed me to obtain two bachelor degrees, a BS in Business Administration and a BA in Psychology. My specialization in two distinct areas has allowed me to adapt to a variety of research and writing methods. Starting at an early age, I was able to gain experience teaching skills to others as a member of the Boy Scouts of America and eventually achieved the rank of Eagle Scout. I ha

Susan K - Rochester, NY 14618 (2.9 mi) - Continuing Education Tutor - $46.00/hr.
As all of us are unique human beings, we have unique learning styles and learn best when we are using these styles to acquire and use information. I am continually amazed at the progress each student can make when encouraged to use the skills he possesses. As a teacher, I try to illustrate the principles I teach: respect for self and others, patience, a sense of humor, and academic rigor. As a teacher of English, I believe that everyone has a story to tell and telling these stories brings great joy to both the writer and the reader. My students have demonstrated, -- and told me, -- that I am correct about this. I have taught students in grades 1--5 as a substitute teacher in the Rochester, NY public school system and full time as a teacher of 9th and 10th grade English (one semester) and 7th grade Science (one semester) in a private school. In addition, I have developed curriculum and in

Douglas A - Rochester, NY 14622 (3.8 mi) - Continuing Education Tutor - $49.50/hr.
Since learning is such an individual endeavor, I believe that flexibility is one of the most important ingredients for good teaching. A good teacher (or tutor) is responsive to the student's learning style, and indeed, to the student's mood during any given learning session. I feel that I am attuned to the cues that most students give and am able to respond with an a approach that would be most effective. If the student is a visual learner, we will work with that in mind. If he or she learns better by being actively involved, then I take on the role of a coach. Obviously, one size does not fit all! I have had a variety of experiences that have prepared me to tutor students at the elementary, middle school and high school level. I have taught Sunday School for several years. I also was on a team that created a training system at Eastman Kodak and then trained production workers. I

Jean H - Rochester, NY 14625 (4.3 mi) - Continuing Education Tutor - $48.00/hr.
My career has been in nonprofit and small business management, and I have also enjoyed opportunities in teaching and training in many settings. At two Rochester NY colleges, I have been an adjunct instructor and tutor in business writing, public speaking, literature, and more. In my consulting business, I have delivered corporate and nonprofit training in management and marketing. One of my favorite experiences has been in tutoring English speaking, writing, and American culture to new adult and teen refugees from several continents. I love teaching teenagers and adults. My students consider me to be organized, upbeat, humorous, and creative. Learning tough subjects does not have to be a grind or scary. My students can achieve lots of small victories at every session and I am ready with positive and constructive feedback. I enjoy getting to know each student and assessing his/her learnin

Jeanne W - East Rochester, NY 14445 (6.6 mi) - Continuing Education Tutor - $48.00/hr.
With extensive (and recent) training in education, especially with regard to providing for the needs of diverse learners, I am prepared to work with each student and his or her family to develop an individualized learning plan that will help the student to become confident and proficient in whatever subject area he or she wishes to strengthen. My teaching style is flexible; I will use a variety of techniques and approaches based on what will work best with the student's individual learning style. My leanings are towards comprehensive, hands-on, discovery-based teaching; creating opportunities for my student to make real-world and personal connections with the information. Though I recently graduated with a BS in Childhood and Special Education, I have many years of experience as a teacher/trainer. I currently substitute teach Per Diem in several local districts for K-12 students. I als

Shirley L - Rochester, NY 14623 (6.6 mi) - Continuing Education Tutor - $49.00/hr.
I have had a love of teaching since I was a young child. I have always wanted to be the teacher as we played school.
My teaching style is one as a facilitator. I believe in role modeling and coaching/guiding students in developing and applying skills and knowledge. I emphasize a student-learning environment. My focus is on students’ needs and goals and the willingness to explore options and alternative courses of action.
My teaching methods include asking questions, exploring options, suggesting alternatives and encouraging students to develop criteria to make informed choices. I believe that students learn best when they actively engage in the content and take responsibility for their learning.

Scott Papepr Co, Philadelphia (2 years)

I have over 7 years teaching experience:
Rochester Institute of Tech (Visiting Professor) Mechanical Engineeringand Math Dept.
I can teach math and many engineering courses up to graduate level. I spend a lot of time (as much as needed) to make a student grasp concepts. Once concepts are well understood, it becomes easy to solve problems. For this reason, the rate of progress depends on the student's interest and dedication to study. I assume that if a student is willing to pay for tutoring, the incentive to learn will not be lacking.
The student's competence improves when the student solves a variety of problems. My objective is to help the student solve problems with minimal assistance, so that the stud
