My comments on tutoring Sign Language : American Sign Language and also Mexican sign language.

I was born and raised in Texas. I grew up with ASL. I love teaching whoever want to sign basic or advanced. I'm friendly, patient, and outgoing. I teach people deaf culture and history. I am also blunt and kind to make ASL better. I won't bite people who want basic signs. People who want advanced skills I can help into certified interpreter.

Sign Language is one of my top subjects! I recently graduated with high honors from Rochester Institute of Technology's American Sign Language Interpreting program at the National Technical Institute for the Deaf. I completed my four year degree with a 3.94 GPA. During my time at NTID, I learned ASL by taking a variety of rigorous classes, interacting with my Deaf peers, and attending frequent tutoring sessions. In addition to my studies of American Sign Language, I also took many classes in ASL regarding Deaf Culture. All of my Sign Language professors were Deaf, as were my Deaf Culture professors.

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 succe ... read more

I love to work with children of any age. I have been volunteering for over 15 years helping wherever and whenever I can to help make the lives of children more enriched. I have two boys of my own (age 10 and 14) and have been successful in helping them achieve the best they can. I have been teaching kids as a substitute for many years and went back to school in my middle 30's to become a teacher. Unfortunately the availability of teaching positions in my area has prevented me from full time employment but I've kept myself busy subbing and working with young adults and those with disabilities further their educational needs.
I graduated Magna Cum Laude in 2007 from SUNY Brockport with an undergraduate degree in Elementary Education, English and Special Education. I have worked as a substitute teacher in all grade levels and in all subject areas. I have been accepted into a high d ... read more

I love working with people of all ages and from a verity of cultures in an educational setting. I firmly believe that every person can learn but that each person has a dominate and secondary learning style of their own. In order to enhance learning for the student, I enjoy the challenge of developing and implementing lesson plans to match the students learning style. My teaching experience includes those needing rehabilitation and the underprivileged.
As a literacy volunteer I was awakened to a deep desire to achieve my degree in a career in the helping profession. This profession opened doors for a career change in education. I embraced the challenges of a teacher/professor for students ranging from kindergarten to senior citizens, both in the class room setting and one-on-one tutoring in the home settings and community programs. Teaching continues to be the common thread th ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

My student teaching was completed at Rochester City School District School #16 in a general education classroom, and special education at Buckman Heights Elementary School in an integrated co-teaching classroom. My student teaching and other observation hours have given me experience in many urban as well as a suburban school district. I have also had two years experience as a substitute teacher in three different school districts.
As an educator, I will bring compassion and energy into my classroom. I would like to have a positive impact on all of my students’ lives and show them that everyone has the ability to learn. I enjoy working with students and watching them learn and grow. Each student learns differently therefore I will provide many different learning styles throughout each lesson.

I believe all children have the ability to succeed in their academic career. By being patient, upbeat, and interested in their topic of study, children will not have a problem taking risks in their learning. Science is learned through exploration. I believe a hands-on activity is the best approach to learning any subject.
I am a recent graduate of Nazareth College and I am currently going there for my masters. I earned a bachelor’s degree in Inclusive Education and Biology. This gave me the opportunity to earn certification through grades 1st through 9th along with special education. I have gained tutor experience through volunteer programs at Nazareth with mostly high school students.

A Little Bit About Me...

I love working with people and teaching them about the things that I am passionate about. I am very patient and throughout and I have learned a lot of valuable techniques such as asking the right questions to confirm that the student has learned the lesson as well as planning out what the important points are that I need to cover. I also try to illustrate points using a variety of learning styles that over time I can customize to individual students.
Between my studies at Roberts Wesleyan College in the liberal arts field, where I earned a bachelors degree, and my studies in math and computational science I have an exceptionally broad knowledge base. My work experience further illustrates this having worked briefly as an English teacher in Prague as well as the various sales and customer service jobs I have had including Verizon Wireless, Wegmans, and Radio Shack.

My philosophy around human learning and knowledge retention involves relationships. Human beings are connected to each other and to all wisdom. Establishing healthy and loving relationships with students and their families facilitates that all key players gain knowledge and are afforded the opportunity to develop deep understandings of concepts taught, increase retention time and improve retrieval. I embrace the National Boards for Professional Teaching Standards five core propositions. The first indicates that accomplished teachers know their students and know each of their students’s learning styles and needs. Adults responsible for children’s learning must make the effort to know all that might help them understand their students’ strengths and build on those strengths.
I have earned two Masters degrees in education as well as National Boards Certification. My GPA has been b ... read more
