Stephanie S. - Rochester, NY 14607 (1.6 mi) - Literature 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

ed r. - Rochester, NY 14620 (2.3 mi) - Literature Tutor - $19.00/hr.
The most important thing when working one-on-one with a student is to find out the best ways that student learns. Patience is important, as is humor. In 20 years of teaching experience I have tutored students of all ages, different socio-economic backgrounds and intellectual abilities, as well as in a wide variety of subjects. I have tutored in four public school systems, in private practice with with adults who needed help to prepare for tests and for adults who either wanted to study for their own enrichment or to advance in the corporate world.

Greg L. - Rochester, NY 14618 (2.9 mi) - Literature Tutor - $62.50/hr.
The key to my tutoring approach is that every student is unique. After we discuss what each student wants to focus on, I ask them to write a paper about a subject that we agree on. Then I take them through several revisions, with each revision focusing on key things they need to work on. I often recommend that students practice creating sentences and paragraphs that focus on each separate concept or skill they need to become proficient in. I follow that procedure over several appointments in which they write additional essays until my students are ready to move ahead without my assistance.

I am a graduate of Houghton College. I graduated from this liberal arts college on May 12th of this year with a Bachelor’s degree in English/Writing and with a minor in Psychology. During my time at Houghton College, I was very involved with the student-run publications that the school offered.

My senior year, I was given the position of co-editor of the school literary magazine, after having been involved with the publication for two years prior to receiving this position. With this position came the responsibility of dealing with every aspect of the publication process, including finances, production, design, and advertisement, as well as the planning of releas

Jenifer W. - Fairport, NY 14450 (9.5 mi) - Literature Tutor - $35.00/hr.
I believe in meeting students right where they are, and letting them progress at their own rate. I make learning as relevant as possible and incorporate many hands-on learning opportunities. I present information in a multitude of ways, using modifications and graphic organizers. School should be fun, and most importantly, it should make sense!! After teaching for 12 years, I decided to step away from the classroom in order to spend more time with my own two kids. I taught in both Rochester City and Brighton, with kids in grades 7-12. Many of my students struggled in school for all different reasons. I would love the opportunity to work with you. School can be really frustrating, but it doesn't have to be. I know a few tricks to help it go more smoothly, and I'd love to share them with you!

Allison G. - Churchville, NY 14428 (12.4 mi) - Literature Tutor - $35.00/hr.
When it comes to language, I believe that people tend to learn best by doing. I also believe wholeheartedly that successfully learning a language depends on your exposure to that language. Continuous exposure to any language can help language acquisition. For English, regardless of what specifically the student is struggling with, consistent reading and writing practice is key. With a manual language like ASL, practicing signing skills and receptive skills is invaluable. Finally, I believe that people learn better when their strengths are pointed out and highlighted rather than their weaknesses. Many students who struggle in school are caught in a perpetual cycle of perceived failures. Optimism, unwavering support, and excitement are key when working with any student. I have always had a passion for learning. Part of my passion includes helping others learn, grow, and succeed. A

Richard E. - Holley, NY 14470 (22.2 mi) - Literature Tutor - $32.50/hr.
I taught for 9 yrs at the 1159 US Army Reserve Forces School. I helped soldiers get promoted to SSG, SFC, & MSG by providing them with skills in writing correspondence, public speaking, lesson planning & class preparation for delivery in both a classroom & tactical (field) environment. I also provided remedial training for soldiers needing additional work in writing,lesson planning & class presentation. I told my students there was no "wrong" way to present class material. They were told they would be videotaped & critiqued by their class members..BUT their presentation would be on their military specialty (eg. a Motor Pool SGT would do a class on vehicle maintenance)..thereby increasing the "comfort level" of the presenter & enhancing the knowledge of the class. The students would be taught to affirm each other & give each other positive "feed-back".
