Connie S - Middleburgh, NY 12122 (5.7 mi) - German 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

Jacob B - Schenectady, NY 12305 (19.2 mi) - German Tutor - $48.00/hr.
I am very open and affable. I have a strong sense of humor and am in no case a hard disciplinarian. What's important is that I believe in sharing knowledge with as many people as is possible. I believe that knowledge belongs to everyone who seeks it. And I believe anyone is capable of acquiring it. I have obtained my Master's Degree in Philosophy and Critical Thought from the French University "Paris VIII". My primary experience has been in politics and philosophy, and has contained, as non-academic experience, involvement in small political groups dealing with specific issues affecting society at large. Learning philosophy has meant a strong knowledge of the English as well as French languages, including a strong background in European history dealing primarily with the period slightly before the French Revolution in France up to the present day, including spots of history in Euro

AliciA H - Schenectady, NY 12309 (20.9 mi) - German Tutor - $44.00/hr.
I began teaching as a college sophomore at MIT. For 9 years, I taught primarily Multivariable Calculus, but also single-variable Calculus, Linear Algebra, and several writing courses. Since graduating, I have been involved in various volunteer tutoring efforts. My minors are in Math, German, and Writing.
I happen to be a black female, the first to earn bachelor's, master's and doctoral degrees in Mechanical Engineering at MIT. I am happy to work with anyone, but I might be a particularly meaningful match for a minority or female student. In addition to tutoring, I would hope to serve as a "can-do" example for someone who might not have dared to dream big enough. I believe in the "practice makes perfect" approach, especially when it comes to math, science, and language study. That said, I also believe that practice can be interesting, fun, encouraging and reinforcing. I would hope to h

Patrick G - Stillwater, NY 12170 (35.8 mi) - German Tutor - $45.00/hr.
I was trained well by the Literacy volunteers of America. I believe that my style is to help the student with repetition, while still making learning fun, via conversation and connecting the importance of what is being learned to every day life. Practiced for years as an attorney for NYS. Semi-retired now.
I have also been a tutor with the Literacy Volunteers of America (LVA) in Albany, NY. I met with a Korean graduate student at U. Albany and helped him learn English.
I am also able to help in foreign language tutoring with German and French.
