tiffany t. - Schenectady, NY 12302 (43.3 mi) - Testing Strategies Tutor - $30.00/hr.
My teaching style is very structured and organized. I teach with the style that every child is unique and learns at their own style and pace. I do not believe in rushing learning nor that every skill, style, environment or learning setting works for every student. My teaching style also mirrors the idea that children learn through hands on, interactive, tactile, and motivating experiences, resources and materials. Most of all, my style of teaching is based upon tapping into each child's own interest or interests that academics can be related and taught through. over 5 years experience teaching, tutoring, mentoring and providing academics to children ages 2 through 12th grade.

Christopher C - Worcester, NY 12197 (8.2 mi) - Testing Strategies Tutor - $48.00/hr.
Through my own academic experience, I have a well-developed understanding of the skills and techniques necessary to achieve a high level of scholastic excellence. I am a trained educator, skilled in modern methods and strategies of teaching and learning.

I worked with ESL graduate and undergraduate students, and have also worked as a private tutor for high school students. I have a strong liberal arts background with proven excellence, as well as training as a professional educator. I firmly believe that teaching and learning is inextricably tied to subjective factors, and that students learn best when the material is presented to them in a way that is both accessible and interesting. I believe that meaningful learning takes place when

Connie S - Middleburgh, NY 12122 (22 mi) - Testing Strategies Tutor - $49.50/hr.
I teach the way I counsel--by expecting self-responsibility. I use humor to enhance one's motivation to seek out and focus on one's strengths. I am not a coddler--I believe that higher expectations result in higher performance. When coupled with empathy, faith in the individual and strong foundations of skills, success is inevitable. I have been supervising other counselors since 1997 in their report-writing. I take pride in my writing skills in the face of a field riddled with nurses who prefer abbreviations to beautifully executed coherent sentences. The sheer eloquence of being able to deliver a report allowing the reader to infer the true meaning of your words, while not providing any statements that will give fuel to a legal representative is a time-earned skill.
In addition to my writing skills, I have 14 years of business skills, extensive analytical skills, which transfe

Leanne T - Fort Plain, NY 13339 (24.2 mi) - Testing Strategies Tutor - $42.00/hr.
As a tutor, I owe the students in my cohort the very best! I am committed to providing our children with the very best educational quality that I can, and am constantly try to improve upon my own skills. I earned a BA in psychology from SUNY Albany, and began to pursue my Master's in Education, but felt at the time that I owed it to my own children to wait. I had the opportunity to study abroad, and gained valuable language skills. I substitute taught at all grade levels for 2 years before returning to work full time. I currently tutor an tenth grade cohort in math, science, social studies, and English. I also plan and implement college field trips so that students gain valuable exposures to higher education. I enjoy working with children and feel that they each have their own individual learning style. At times, I feel that conventional educational methods may fail some children. E

Jarrett R - Central Bridige, NY 12035 (24.3 mi) - Testing Strategies Tutor - $44.00/hr.
I enjoy demonstrating skills and processes and then as a coach/guide in helping students develop and apply these skills and knowledge. I show the students how to properly do a task or work through a problem and then I'll help them master the task or problem solution. It's important that the students can independently solve similar problems by using and adapting demonstrated methods. I encourage student participation. As we work together I’ll learn what best works for them and adjust to their personal learning styles. Most of my work experience was gain as a teacher’s aide.I work in a self contained classroom.I worked with students in small groups or individually.I would grade and enter grades for the teacher.I took students to Physical Education by myself.I organize and prepare the learning material for the week.I taught science and computer skills portion of the classroom.Each student g

Jodi C - Mohawk, NY 13407 (26.1 mi) - Testing Strategies Tutor - $51.00/hr.
I love to work with children. I went into the field of education because I feel all children deserve the right to learn, even if it is at a different level, or slower pace then other children. I am a very patient person, and love to see a child when they discover that they were successful at learning. I feel that I am a very creative person, allowing learning to take place at all levels. I feel learning should be fun, and if a child has fun learning they will retain what they learn and progress up the ladder to become a successful learner. I have quite alot of experience in the filed of education. I was very driven to attain my degree and I also attained a minor in Psychology. I earned an Associates degree in Human Services, and a BS degree in the field of Special Education with a minor in Psychology. It was in the area of Special Education that I was able to broaden that degree t

Michelle P - Ilion, NY 13357 (27 mi) - Testing Strategies Tutor - $42.50/hr.
I like to combine both direct instruction and hands-on activities when teaching. I believe that allowing students to apply their learning to real-life situations helps them to both find meaning in their learning and attach the learning to a memorable experience.
I get really excited about the subjects that I teach and my excitement carries over to my students. And, when students are excited about what they are learning, they want to continue to learn more about that particular subject. I have been a teacher for over six years. I have taught and/or tutored subjects ranging from elementary reading and math to high school math and science. I am permanently certified in New York State to teach Biology and general science. In addition, I am pursuing certificates in both physics and math.

Scot A - cassville, NY 13318 (27.3 mi) - Testing Strategies Tutor - $49.00/hr.
As a participant in the training of Learner Focused Schools, my focus for learning has always been on the student. I believe that all students have different needs. If given the proper services, all students can learn. Being a graduate of the Educational Leadership Program at SUNY Cortland, I have gained a much broader understanding of working with students. I have been involved with education for the past eight years and have found it to be the most rewarding experience of my life. I have also been coaching sports for over fifteen years. As a life long learner, I have continued my education and learning to achieve continous personal growth. High values in education have driven me to earn a CAS degree in Educational Leadership. I believe that this has helped me become a better teacher in the classroom. Because the CAS degree requires multiple reasearch papers, it has allowed me to become

Christopher S - Frankfort, NY 13340 (28.8 mi) - Testing Strategies Tutor - $48.50/hr.
Having completed my B.A. in Mathematics, with a minor in adolescent education, a Computer Science degree, and graduating with a 3.65 GPA, and a 4.0 in content has fueled my success. Combining that with presently finishing my Masters in Teaching with Technology, three years of teaching mathematics and 5 years of tutoring experience, in which I tutored several subjects I feel that I have a lot to add to the success of students. To go along with my education, I have completed several science courses as well as Spanish courses. A second language is required in order to become a certified teacher, as well as a baseline test aligned with all courses in a high school curriculum, in my current state. I have always loved helping people, especially in the way of education. I believe that everyone learns differently, and therefore strive for diversity in teaching. I will exhaust all possible strat

Sarah M - Mount Upton, NY 13809 (29.4 mi) - Testing Strategies 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
