Laura M - New Albany, MS 38652 (1.8 mi) - Testing Skills Tutor - $36.00/hr.
I began to work at Regions Bank in New Albany the Summer after my Senior year of high school. While still working for the bank, I attended Ole Miss for a year, then transfered to Northeast for the next year. I returned to Ole Miss to recieve my bachelors degree in Managerial Finance with an emphasis in Investments. I am now employed for a furniture company out of Tupelo, where I am an Accountant. Although I do not have much teaching experience, I am quite knowledgeable with Financials and Accounting Principals. I have turtored a few children in mathmatics, and I also helped other classmates. Although I have little teaching experience, I love working with all ages of people. I'm sure I would have a different approach to teaching/tutoring because I have not had any education classes or experience. I would offer a more business/economical outlook on mathmatical skills. I really like to expl

Aaron D - Delmar, NY 12054 (11 mi) - Testing Skills Tutor - $46.00/hr.
For writing, usually I conduct some exercises. The level of the critique and what to say depends heavily on the age of the student.
For grammar, I would either find or create my own practice materials and we could go over whatever is necessary until I've decided that the student is making improvements or the student has succeeded. Over the past year, I have tried to extend my ability to share my love and appreciation of English and literature with others. As an English/Communications major, I am very knowledgable in a variety of subjects including grammar, writing composition and reading comprehension.
Last year, as President of the Writers Forum, we spent several months tutoring as part of an after school program where we helped children in Baltimore write.

I have been a Junior High Math teacher for more than 20 years.I also have taught returning Empire State College students in Basic Math and electronics. In my last position, I created "Striving for Excellance in Math". It was a combination of daily and weekly drills and activities. I currently am working for EVI. They score all of the NYS Assessment exams. I therefore know what is required to exceed the standards required by NYS. I have also taught Math9,Course 1,and Math A. I feel I am therefore well versed in all that is required for 9th grade math!! I have never had a student fail the regents. I left full time teaching 3 years ago. I was the whole math dept. I taught 6,7,8,9th grade math in a private school. I did not realize how much I would miss it. I sometimes day dream about how I would teach a certain topic a different way. I have always thought that teaching is magical. When you

Anne C - Slingerlands, NY 12159 (12.1 mi) - Testing Skills Tutor - $45.00/hr.
As a graduate of the State University of NY at Albany, I am very interested in helping others learn. I hold 2 degrees, BA in English and MS in Education/English s a Second Language. I taught school for 4 years and after many years of working in administration, I would like to tutor students in English and mathematics. I enjoy teaching children of all ages and adults. I am patient and a good listener and can zoom in on what a child needs help in. If a child has difficulty grapsing some concept, I believe the teacher can slow down and tackle whatever problem the child is having by using an understanding and nonjudgmental approach.

Kristen B - Albany, NY 12208 (14.2 mi) - Testing Skills Tutor - $45.00/hr.
My goal with every child is to provide an educational experience tailored to her or him, specifically. I have mastered diagnostic techniques that will determine a child's needs in terms of learning-style, ability-level, and comfort-zone. In my experience, a constructivist approach, where the student is motivated to take control of her or his learning works best in that it provides children with the tools and confidence to remember and use the material. Children have a positive learning experience when they are provided a safe learning environment, tools with which to work, and space to fit new information into their schema of stored knowledge. As an educator, I have had the pleasure of working with urban, rural, foreign, and special-needs students. After gaining experience and education in three major regions of this country, I feel well-prepared to teach and tutor students of all demog

Nicole S - Albany, NY 12208 (14.3 mi) - Testing Skills Tutor - $46.50/hr.
In addition to academics, my students and I focus a lot on being good citizens, and having open/honest communication. I try to foster an environment that instills respect and understanding. In reading, we do both guided reading and book club units. This allows students to get individual skills, along with discussing full texts with one another. My students are very pationate about their writer's notebooks, and the writer's workshop program we have been focusing on this year (and years past). We have worked hard to master the challenging NYS math curriculum, and have met with success within the classroom. After completing my graduate program and student teaching at Latham Ridge Elementary School, I became an aide within the same building. This position lent itself to filling in maternity years the following year. I was then hired as a sixth grade teacher and have been in that posit

Tara G - Albany, NY 12209 (14.5 mi) - Testing Skills Tutor - $46.00/hr.
I realize the importance a child’s academic instruction plays in their future. I am well prepared, seeing as I have a B.A in English, to provide my students with a concrete and enticing curriculum. I have witnessed and engaged in remarkable teaching experiences. I have had the opportunity to function in a variety of educational settings, in which I learned various ways to create an energizing and productive learning environment that will promote a genuine interest in English and all of its wondrous offerings. All of my principals, department heads, and other members of the faculty have recognized that I have created constructive changes in students’ academic and overall attitudes and performance. I believe that my intense energy, exceptional education, experience and ability to motivate every child in my class combine to make me a teacher who is ready and dedicated to help her stu

Mary M - Albany, NY 12203 (15 mi) - Testing Skills Tutor - $42.00/hr.
The best teaching style in my opinion, explains how to research, plan and write essays, gives students time to practice these skills in class, and ensures students get feedback on how well they have done on each sub-skill.
Students learn skills by using them in a realistic, subject-specific context, and in a combined way. So they might use other skills taught before such as note taking, highlighting, all in context. The purpose of the skills are stressed, students are taught not just what to do and how, but also why. The students then reflect on how well they used the skills, what gains they were getting and so on, and then they action plan for improvement. As a graduate from the State University of New York at Albany, I am driven to achieve the highest level of excellence in education especially in the following generations. I have received a BA in Chemistry and Pre-Med. These degr

Joseph M - albany, NY 12208 (15.1 mi) - Testing Skills Tutor - $45.00/hr.
Through my teaching experience I have found it necessary to differentiate my teaching styles in order to be an effective teacher. Most often than not I have found that being a facilitator rather than a dictator is most beneficial to learning. I have learned that if students construct their own learning experiences they will not only retain information longer, but they will also become more confident in their abilities. I have been Involved in the teaching and tutoring of academic subjects for the past 6 years of my life. I have a true passion for instilling the same love for education that I possess in my students.
I have worked in about 9 different educational, tutoring, or mentoring facilities both before and after I graduated with my biology teaching certificate.
I have used these experiences to not only develop my teaching strategies but to truly understand what makes a

Kaitlin M - Delanson, NY 12053 (15.2 mi) - Testing Skills Tutor - $47.00/hr.
I believe that students best learn by being allowed to make mistakes. Instead of providing students with answers, I give them a challenge and guide them to discover the answers. I am patient throughout this process and encouraging as students grapple with new ideas. My goal is to motivate students to want to learn and to see the value in discovery. During any lesson, I try to enhance my students' metacognitive skills by asking them what they learned, or how they will remember new concepts. Through this approach to teaching, students begin to take control of their education and learn how to reflect on their own learning and thought processes. This December I will graduate with a BA in English Adolescence Education. My 3.95 GPA shows my drive for academic excellence and passion for knowledge. My writing, reading, research, and critical analysis skills have been honed through my studies. Fu
