I try to involve as many senses as I can when illustrating new concepts and ideas. Math manipulatives are essential elements for early math comprehension. Whenever a game can help solidify ideas, it is utilized and learning is always fun. Children reach benchmarks, such as reading independently and math computation at different rates, so it's important to be consistent but very patient and encouraging. A solid reading foundation is the greatest gift our children can receive. Comprehension is a key factor to understanding any subject at all. Prior to homeschooling my six children, I worked as a Research Assistant at the Schriner's Burn Institute in Boston, and then at Darmouth College Medical School in Hanover, NH. My science and laboratory background from UVM was beneficial to my success in these labs. I have now spent to past 18 years homeschooling my children. The three oldest h

Susan M - Palatine Bridge, NY 13428 (32.7 mi) - Latin Tutor - $47.00/hr.
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.

Sarah M - Mount Upton, NY 13809 (36.8 mi) - Latin Tutor - $51.50/hr.
I believe that one key to successfully helping children of all ages to learn, is a positive and encouraging atmosphere. Since every child learns differently, I always adapt my style of teaching a particular subject to best fit the needs of each individual. I have found that incorporating every day examples and scenarios into the concepts that a student is learning, can help them better understand the subject matter, and the application of these concepts. As an educator, I am flexible and rely on numerous resources to help demonstrate topics. I have a very approachable and patient demeanor, and a sincere passion for assisting each student I work with to understand what they are studying and allowing them realize what they are capable of. After graduating from high school as valedictorian, I earned a Zoology BS and a Studio Art BA from SUNY Oswego, successfully completing English compo
