More About This Tutor...

I try to highlight a students strengths and build solid study habits and work patterns. For instance, if a student has trouble focusing on his/her work, I try to push them for short periods of intense study, and then reward them with a break. Since my first degree was completed through an integrated, online program, I stress organizational skills. If I feel that a student is having an issue with organization, I explain to them how much it helps me to organize and then we address the issues they might be having.
Currently pursuing my second Bachelor's degree, I have been exposed to a wide variety of curriculum. I excel in teaching the required level of High School and College level mathematics and also have an aptitude for academic, technical, and narrative writing. I have tutored for the past year at the Center for Academic Support and Excellence at SUNY Cobleskill. We provide ... read more

I believe that the mark of a talented instructor is not just being knowledgeable, but also being able to dynamically engage her students; effectively impart her knowledge to them; and remain aware of learning differences and accommodate her teaching style accordingly. Therefore, I aim to be as collaborative, engaging, and flexible as possible. My impression of myself as this type of teacher has been corroborated by my students’ verbal and written feedback. In addition to these elements, my teaching style is influenced by my familiarity with the empirical literature in the area of learning impairment and an understanding of how a person’s relative cognitive strengths and weaknesses may affect his/her academic performance. Also, the clinical aspect of my graduate training helps me with interpersonal effectiveness across a number of settings. In short, the integration between my professiona ... read more

As an extremely motivated female, I am seeking employment through tutoring because I feel I have gained a great plethora of skills necessary to be successful in a variety of career fields, especially related to the job oppertunity offered through your company. I developed skills of patience, understanding, and responsibility. Volunteer activities through tutoring as well as substitute teaching have aided in the development and establishment of my life experiences. In nearly every volunteer center I participated in, I have played a large part in teaching and helping students with their work. I’ve had a chance to use the writing, verbal, and communication skills learned through multiple years of English classes.
My teaching style is centered around full-filling the needs of student, especially in a tutor setting. Being focused and showing a genuine care and consideration for the st ... read more

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 help a student figure out how to learn and approach new challenges with confidence and enthusiasm. Sometimes what a child needs most is to simply understand that he or she is capable of achieving. Instilling self-affirmation is an extremely important part of teaching, and that would be my goal in working with your child.
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 fi ... read more

I was lucky enough to have a number of great teachers throughout my schooling, and this has helped me realize what a difference these extraordinary educators can make. In taking courses with them, I have found that the most important things are to be patient and respectful. I realize that not every student has the same learning style, and in my tutoring experience I have been able to adapt and achieve success for all of my students.
As an undergraduate at Rhode Island College, I studied Physics and Mathematics. During this time, I was on the Dean's List for all 8 semesters, and earned the departmental award in Physics. When I was not working on my studies, I tutored both college students in the Physical Sciences Department, and high school students for the Upward Bound Program, which seeks to prepare inner-city high school students for their first year of college.

More About This Tutor...

I am passionate about teaching maths and physics as I am confidant in teaching them and I have enthusiasm and drive in solving problems from my past experience. I have 2 years of tutoring experience in SUNY Albany EOP where I helped the students who faced challenges in solving maths and physics problems. It was really exciting and fun in tutoring the undergrads at UAlbany.
As a maths teacher I am very flexible to students needs. I care about each student's learning ability and the challenges they face. Definitely I can make a difference in students understanding the subject as I love to tutor. I will try to understand where the student is actually facing the challenge. And finally as fundamentals are key to success I would focus on them repeatedly.

I have been an amateur tutor ever since high school, when I tutored classmates for free. I spent 6 years as a nuclear trained electrician in the US Navy, 10 years in academia where I studied and taught psychology, biology, and communications, and the past 10 years in retail management. I took it upon myself to conduct impromptu training sessions in many different areas of study while in the Navy, and actively helped shipmates engaged in external study programs. I implemented a tutoring program for pre-med and pre-vet students and others while a member of Beta-Beta-Beta (the National Honor Society for Biology) at Southern Illinois University. I have used my teaching and training skills in innumerable situations as a retail manager. I am a life-long learner and actively acquire and absorb lectures on cd in many disciplines through The Teaching Company.

I obtained a B.S. in engineering from Webb Institute in 1968, entered the U.S. Coast Guard and thereafter obtained a JD in Law from SUNY, Buffalo. I tutored underclassmen in calculus while at Webb and taught seventh and eighth grade math and science in a small catholic school, part time, while in law school. Following law school I was a prosecutor for six years after which I became a hearing officer for NYS OCFS. I retired from state service about one year ago, at age sixty-two. In addition to helping my two sons, as needed, in science and math (both became engineers), I have recently tutored my step son in physics and calculus, tutored a high school student for his SATs, and tutored a college student in intermediate algebra.
My approach to teaching/tutoring is simple. 1) Make an assessment of the student’s needs. This is a critical part of the methodology. The assessment ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have always been a very direct teacher. What I mean by that is I am very clear on what my goals are in a classroom from the very first day I begin. I let all of the students know what my expectations are, and what dissapoints me. I know that each child is different. I have always been willing to take the time to support those students who need extra attention, whether it be before or after school. Every student is capable of learning, but not every student is willing. Part of my job is to encourage them to choose the right path to their success.
Throughout the years, I have had many experiences in the field of education. I began my experience in the classroom as a student teacher at Syracuse University. My first assignment was a 12th grade classroom as a freshman in college. This was a very challenging, yet rewarding experience that taught me how to discipline and gain respec ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

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 students are actively engaged in the material, through activities and experiences that immerse them directly in the concepts that they are expected to understand. I design learning experiences that are logical and meaningful to students, and encourage them to develop the self-regulation skills that will aid them far into their academic careers. I am trained in modern pedagogical techniques, and have experience applying these techniques with success.
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 educ ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Generally in my experience I have a higher level of understanding of basic principles than my peers. This puts me in a position of frequently helping others understand subtleties of the material. There are many different ways of understanding any one concept, it is just a matter of finding one that relates to the particular student's experience or thought process. I simply try to find a way for the student to understand the material, and clarify any of the questions they may have.
I graduated from the University of Vermont with a BS in Physics. I am currently a graduate student at SUNY Albany in the Physics Ph.D program. I have officially been a physics lab TA for one year, however before that I have helped many friends and acquaintances in physics and general math. I received a 770/800 on the GRE math test, and so far after 1 year of graduate study I have a 4.0 and h ... read more

As a recent graduate of Syracuse University (December 2009) with a BS in Mechanical Engineering, I am very familiar with the concepts taught in most Mathematics and Physics courses. I was a peer tutor for two years at Syracuse tutoring in the following subjects: Calculus I, II, and III, Probability, Statistics, Differential Equations, Physics I and II, Thermodynamics, and Fluid Mechanics. This has enabled me to hone my tutoring style to a point where it is concise yet readily understandable (something that is especially easy since I was very recently in the same position many of the students are right now).
As a recent student, I am very familiar with what it feels like to be in the position a lot of the students are in right now. At the same time, I understand the best method about how to approach understanding the material in the easiest manner possible. The key is patience and p ... read more
