Amanda J - Binghamton, NY 13905 (11.8 mi) - Testing Skills Tutor - $49.00/hr.
I love to teach and see the ideas light up the eyes of the person who suddenly got a concept. I think teaching should be adaptable and should fit the learning style of the student. Visual tasks, memory games, and hands-on-learning are, in my opinion, the best way to help someone truly learn (versus rote memory). I think that with the right guidance and put in the right environment, anyone can learn. I look forward to being that "right guidance." I attended several schools to achieve my undergraduate degrees, both of which I worked hard to excel at the University level. Attending graduate school at Binghamton University truly prepared me for academia, requiring many research papers and essays as well as honing my knowledge in psychology, the arts, human development, english, and biology. I have tutored, un-officially, all during my college years, forming study groups to better help

David K - Vestal, NY 13850 (14.4 mi) - Testing Skills Tutor - $44.00/hr.
I am currently a part time math teacher at a junior high school and an elementary school teaching assistant. I am a part time math tutor and am looking for new students. My experience as a math tutor ranges from middle school level to adult. I graduated in high standing with a bachelors and masters degree in engineering. I worked as an engineer for four years and then decided to go into the teaching field. As an engineer, I used the principles that I now teach, helping me to develop a strong foundation as a math educator. I am very patient with students and am able to adapt to their individual needs. I take the time to get to know the student and to understand how he or she learns. I come prepared to the tutoring session with the concepts I plan on teaching and assignments for the students to work on at home. I take time to make worksheets and to prepare activities that help simp

While attending a small private university in upstate New York, I pursued a degree in Chemistry with a minor in English.

David T - norwich, NY 13815 (21.8 mi) - Testing Skills Tutor - $48.00/hr.
I received my Bachelor's degree in 1989 and worked as an assistant engineer in Binghamton NY until I started my masters program at SUNY Cortland. I have held Physics, Earth science, Chemistry and Biology appointments in the years that followed in a variety of School districts throughout the state. I have spent five years tutoring and 17 teaching, including 12 years of summer school. The best thing about teaching and tutoring science is that it easily transfers to all of the other disciplines. My experiences and my insatiable appetite for learning have enabled me to make significant connections across the disciplines and to keep on learning! I have always wanted students to really know the material being covered. This has meant keeping their interest through jovial yet concentrated lesson planning. I have always strived to make my students feel comfortable and to take on the responsibi

Nicole D - Cortland, NY 13045 (31.1 mi) - Testing Skills Tutor - $49.00/hr.
I have worked as a pre-school teacher for two years in Syracuse, NY, where I was motivated to enter into the field of education on a permanent basis. I went back to school to attain my masters degree in education in 2008, and finished student teaching in December of 2009. I am accustomed to teaching children from various backgrounds, and learning styles. I am eager to initiate a career in education and serve the students in the greater Cortland county area. I love teaching, working, and playing with children. I believe that children learn most effectively from using both a hands and minds-on learning/teaching style. As all children come from differing/diverse backgrounds, I utilize communication with both the students and parents in order to effectively teach said child. I believe that all children have the potential for growth and success in the classroom and beyond, if they are gi

Suzanne C - Brooktondale, NY 14817 (33.1 mi) - Testing Skills Tutor - $46.00/hr.
As an undergraduate, I spent nearly three years assisting groups of students with how to learn content for the historically difficult courses of College Chemistry I and II. I have my BS in Nuclear Medicine Technology, which permitted me to learn and acquire a great understanding in multiple areas. These areas include biology, anatomy, physiology, chemistry, algebra, statistics, and beginning and intermediate levels of Spanish . In February 2011, I will be finished my MBA in Healthcare Management, which has broadened my knowledge in business courses, such as economics, accounting, marketing and finance. Throughout my education, I have mastered grammatical skills with the many research papers, essays, and lab reports that I have written. I would be happy to assist students with any courses necessary, as I am confident I can help them learn. I possess strong interpersonal skills which would

Nadya C - Ithaca, NY 14850 (38.8 mi) - Testing Skills Tutor - $56.00/hr.
I worked for the Princeton Review as well as various non-profit organizations such as Let's Get Ready! and The Door!, tutoring SAT math and verbal skills. Through these experiences, I've worked with underprivileged youth, and bilingual and ESL speakers. Most recently, I've worked as a teaching assistant for students struggling with college-level writing assignments, met with students one-on-one, and created individualized lesson plans for each student. I am a magna cum laude graduate from an Ivy League university with several awards for scholarship, leadership, and research. Thus, I believe strongly in working hard not only for myself but for any of the children I teach. I am patient and pride myself on taking on students that require extra effort. I am kind, hardworking, and reliable - I believe that good SAT prep should be available to everyone and I try to live through that philosophy

Kimberly C - Ithaca, NY 14850 (38.8 mi) - Testing Skills Tutor - $46.50/hr.
I like children to learn through exploring. This is not to say that I do not teach, but I plan lessons in a way that allows students to learn at their own pace. I feel like if I can put together a lesson that gives children a motivation to learn, they will learn on a deeper level than if I am merely telling them information. With my middle school math students whom I tutored, this meant that we learned about fractions through art. It was not enough to explain to them how fractions worked, I realized that they needed to experience fractions. We spent the same amount of time as the regular class did on fractions, but my students were able to better explain their work. I have experience across the boards. I have taught students from the first grade level to the college level. I have earned a BA and an MA, both in Physics with a focus on education, but opted to take all of my elective

Muriel Q - Ithaca, NY 14850 (39 mi) - Testing Skills Tutor - $47.50/hr.
I have always had a passion for education. Coming from a large family, I was always helping my younger siblings with their homework and teaching "school" in my mom's study on the weekends. I attended the rigorous International Baccalaureate program at my high school and moved away from home to attend a prestigious liberal arts college. After graduating from Smith College in May I moved to Boston to work at a public charter high school where I worked with a large and diverse student population. I taught a reading class and a Spanish class, coached the co-ed soccer team, and tutored students in several classes, including AP courses. I was also an Americorps service member and tutored elementary school students at two separate public schools. I love working with children because I believe that every child has the ability to learn. I understand that each child learns in a unique way and my g

Changhao Y - Ithaca, NY 14850 (39 mi) - Testing Skills Tutor - $47.50/hr.
I really enjoy working with all people, I understand that everyone has a learning style, but above all you have to work hard to get to the next level. I am patient, thoughtful and willing to offer my support. I think it's important to summarize the important parts of the subject and then have the student remember them and focus on how to manipulate those parts into useful problem solving skills. I know I can make a great instructor for you. As a Cornell graduate of Biomedical Engineering, I was able to learn about a variety of subjects and gain a better understanding of multiple types of math and science. As an instructor for the Cornell ballroom dance team, I have taught classes for two years in addition to my tutoring in math and science for another two years. I have written up multiple laboratory reports and research papers as well as a final Master's project. My students enjoy

kobi p - ithaca, NY 14850 (39 mi) - Testing Skills Tutor - $43.50/hr.
Hi,
I'm Kobi.I have 7 full years of educating behind me.I was teaching classes and groups during my B.A studies for annual projects and for a private - tutoring company like yours.
Since 2008 I own "highway" a private tutoring company in Israel- now ran by a partner.
I have tutored mostly Maths and English but I'm capable of teaching any other subjects for low graders.Of course, Hebrew can always come into consideration- it's my home language. I think that my teaching experience speaks for itself..
I'm capable of working with all ages.. preferring teenagers because I like bigger challenges.
I'm patient,easy going o one hand but firm with homework\tasks on the other hand.I'm a great believer in leading the student to the answer rather than telling it.
I believe that the fact that I'm the founder of a tutoring company in Israel gave me the ability to criticize&improve my work more ef

I recently obtained a Bachelors of Science in Biological and Environmental Engineering from Cornell University. As an engineer I have very strong analytical and problem solving skills. However, I also have very strong writing and grammatical skills which I have utilized not only in technical papers and reports, but also in various liberal studies courses I took throughout my undergraduate career.I have experience tutoring middle and high school aged students in language arts, mathematics, science, and social studies. As well as experience with college aged students in technical courses such Sustainable Development and Engineering Math. I enjoy working with students individually, because it really is true that no two students learn in exactly the same way. I like to first see what my students know and then take corrective steps after establishing a base. I am patient and attempt to mak
