Shakespeare Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Stanley, NY

I believe in meeting students right where they are, and letting them progress at their own rate. I make learning as relevant as possible and incorporate many hands-on learning opportunities. I present information in a multitude of ways, using modifications and graphic organizers. School should be fun, and most importantly, it should make sense!! After teaching for 12 years, I decided to step away from the classroom in order to spend more time with my own two kids. I taught in both Rochester City and Brighton, with kids in grades 7-12. Many of my students struggled in school for all different reasons. I would love the opportunity to work with you. School can be really frustrating, but it doesn't have to be. I know a few tricks to help it go more smoothly, and I'd love to share them with you!

After finishing Graduate School, I immediately began working as a 7th Grade Summer School English Teacher. Along with a one month Long-Term Substitute position teaching 9th and 11th grade English and Advanced English, I was prepared to take on a full-time role. Now as a full-time English Language Arts Support Study Teacher, I work closely with small groups of students to help improve their ELA skills and their general study skills to help improve their overall educational performance. I believe that each student has a unique learning style and therefore, teachers must develop a unique approach to each an every student. By providing a comfortable learning environment, students feel more open to share and learn. Trust and respect between teacher and student is essential for the best learning to take place. With a student-centered approach, each individual can gain the most from their t

I am a graduate of Houghton College. I graduated from this liberal arts college on May 12th of this year with a Bachelor’s degree in English/Writing and with a minor in Psychology. During my time at Houghton College, I was very involved with the student-run publications that the school offered. My junior and senior years I worked as a journalist for the school newspaper (http://www.houghtonstar.com/). I wrote articles covering diverse topics ranging from essays on sub-culture to an article covering the Oscars. My senior year, I was given the position of co-editor of the school literary magazine, after having been involved with the publication for two years prior to receiving this position. With this position came the responsibility of dealing with every aspect of the publication process, including finances, production, design, and advertisement, as well as the planning of release

My teaching style.... depends on the day, depends on the students, depends on the topic. One minute I can be dancing around the room and the next we're having a more serious discussion. My expectations are very high and I always push my students to do "just a bit better" than they think they can at that moment. At the end of the day, a lot of "just a bit better"'s add up to a whole lot! I wholeheartedly believe that each student has a potential that is limited only to their current experience--giving them new opportunities and showing them not only what they can do but what the world has to offer them... this can change a kid's life! I have been teaching for 21 years now (wow, that's gone by fast!) and I love every second of what I do. I have also been a tutor in the district for the past 9 years, tutoring every subject possible--math, English, Social Studies, etc. I enjoy tutorin

I graduated from Finger Lakes Community College with an AA in Elementary Education. I passed the NYS Teacher's Assistant Skills Test in 2006. I worked at BOCES as a tutor. I tutored high school, middle school and elementary school students. I also worked in the BOCES classrooms as a teacher's aide. I worked at BOCES for 3 years. I also worked at Happiness House as a substitute residential aide, and my duties included helping young residents with their homework and reading with them. I must also mention that I helped my own two children with their homework, and now I help their young children with their work. If I am tutoring a young person I contact the teacher so that I can find out what areas the student needs review in. Many times the teacher will give me the resources and materials to use. Also, I like to use the guide books for each grade that are sold in stati

If you are in need of a writing tutor or English skills tutor (grammar, punctuation, proofreading), I'm the one you want and need. I have a B.A. in English with a concentration in Written Communication. This means that I focused on writing as part of my degree program. I LOVE to write, and if I had the time, I'd write a book - maybe someday. I also have a Masters degree in education, and I taught English in public high school for 5 years. I have tutored students that I taught, as well as those outside of the traditional school setting, through online tutoring programs. Anytime I am able to share my knowledge with others, I feel that I am using my education as I'm helping you to use and further yours. I enjoy teaching students who are willing to learn. You don't have to love to write as much as I do, but it's my hope that I can make it a little easier for you. I am very structured, but o

My teaching style has evolved over the years to one of guided instruction. My first task is to get to know my student’s strengths, weaknesses, and learning style and proceed from that platform. I am very patient and encourage a respectful bond between my student and me as the tutor. I believe students perform best when they feel comfortable and accepted in the learning setting. That being said, I require and expect my students to complete assigned tasks and approach the tutoring session with a positive, ready-to-learn attitude. I recognize and highlight all successes while, at the same time, working to resolve any struggles and difficulties encountered in learning the subject matter. I am a former tenured junior high English teacher with a permanent New York State teaching certificate in English 7-12. I have much experience as a private tutor of elementary through high school students

I enjoy teaching and working with all children. I have worked with preschool to grade 5. I am a strong believer of differentiation which incorporates various learning styles and truly meeting the needs of each individual child. All students learn in various ways and each child's education must be tailored to their learning style. I believe all children can be successful if given the right tools and environment. One on one learning creates the most powerful combination for student success and achievement. My goal for my future career in education is focused on how I can make a difference in my students' academic and personal lives. I am currently finishing my Masters in Inclusive Education grades 1-6 at Nazareth College. I work for a childcare center currently and have a 3 year old daughter. I have participated in various field placements from grades 1-5. I am confident in my ability to t

• As a NESCAC undergraduate, I explored many areas of study. In addition to earning a BA in English and American Literature while completing a minor in African Studies, I also became fluent in French through study, travel, and teaching. My first teaching experiences were in high school, when I choreographed musicals and tutored a young Chinese boy in English. In college, I co-instructed a drum circle. Finally, this past summer I worked as a Residential Advisor at the Middlebury-Monterey Language Academy. In this position I was an academic advisor, a social mediator, and a confidante. In addition to formal tutoring, my strong writing skills have attracted peers in need of a second opinion on their work since high school. As someone who was enthralled with literature and learning at a young age, I truly enjoy guiding young people through their learning processes. I believe that everyone ha
