I am a doer who has shared his knowledge and experience in a variety of ways. When I worked as a photographer and filmmaker, I taught those subjects at many different institutions, from an after-school program for elementary school kids to NYU Graduate School. For many years now, I have worked as a science writer and editor. I mentor many newly minted Chinese scientists and engineers who work for IBM in Beijing, teaching them both English grammar and the proper form and style for peer-reviewed scientific papers they are writing. I developed and taught courses in Communications and Technical and Professional Writing for Marist College, Poughkeepsie NY. Some people learn by talking, some tactically by doing, some visually by example. It depends on the student, or I devise a presentation that involves all three ways of presenting the information. I believe that learning and understanding th

G Michael S - Claremont, NH 03743 (31.2 mi) - PSAT Tutor - $36.00/hr.
I like to discover what my students already know about the topic and to expose any misconceptions. Brainstorming activities work well for me. I like to help define the topic in common terms, not the classic dictionary method. I use presentation, discussion, videos and hands on activities. Most of what I do is inquiry based. I have a passion for teaching but waited until I gained some "real world" experience. I found that this has helped me relate to my students since I am able to make meaningful connections to their learning.

Christine C - Northampton, MA 01060 (36.8 mi) - PSAT Tutor - $41.50/hr.
Throughout my life, I have always had an ability to talk with and to listen to adolescents. Regardless of a student’s academic aptitude, socio-economic status, or learning differences, I honestly believe that each student has the ability and the right to learn about the world around them and to be helped by adults in their life-path and individual growth. As a teacher planning lessons, I deliberately infuse the learning with opportunities for student choice, intellectual growth, and explorations into interconnected themes, ideas, and questions. I know that all students can be highly successful, if provided the opportunity to interact with engaged and thoughtful teachers. As a person who truly values learning, I have continuously engaged in being both a student and a teacher in academically rigorous studies. With over 14 years of professional education experience, including high scho
