Math Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Westport, NY

I am studying Secondary Math Education at the University of Vermont. I am a senior and I have completed all of my education and math requirements for my degree. In the spring I will be student teaching in one of the local schools. Last year, I spent over 100 hours in the classroom observing and teaching. This year, I am in a middle school classroom 2 hours a week teaching math to English Language Learners. I also spend time tutoring students in the local teen centers in Burlington. Over the summer, I worked at the Montshire Museum in Norwich, VT at a summer camp teaching children about aquatic biology and how to make inventions. After I earn my degree at UVM, I am planning on becoming a high school math teacher.

I started tutoring in 9th grade, and continued until my freshman year of college. I tutored middle school and high school students in math, sciences, and social studies. In college I tutored in Level 1 and 2 French, Psychology, and College Level Algebra. I have tutored both male and female students, and have worked with people with reading and learning disabilities. I love working with people, and have a lot of patience. I work hard to let the student work through problems themselves before assisting them. A lot of students I have spent time with just need a small amount of encouragement and are very capable of completing their work. I enjoy working with different types of people, and adapt my style to fit their needs.

I am a Senior Computer Science major at Siena college; my programming experience covers a range of languages, although my strongest is Java. I am currently certified by CompTIA as an IT Technician (A+ Certification), and have built 5 personal desktops over the years for clients. While programming is my main focus in school, I have learned a variety of techniques that bolster that skill, such as Artificial Intelligence design process, and Networking strategies. My experience teaching started when I worked for Northlands Job Corps Academy. The students that I helped usually came to me not for their classwork, but because they held an interest in learned how their computers and personal devices worked. I feel that most learning comes from performing an activity rather than being lectured, so I prefer to give students a chance to perform the work after I show them a few basics (supervise

I have had a deep interest in helping people since I was a young child. Seeing someone succeed because of my help is one of the greatest motivators for me, especially when it's "against the odds". As a college student I tutored the students who really wanted to learn but couldn't through no fault of their own--those with learning disabilities and non-native English speakers. I have tutored many subjects such as language (French and English), math, and physical sciences. It is difficult to describe my teaching style because I try to adapt to the student. Students learn differently and therefore it is my belief that you must observe first and then you have to adapt to the student, especially in a one on one situation. Some students may learn better if you play a game with them, others if you read them a passage. I try to learn as much as I can about the student and adapt to their individua

I understand the importance of getting to know students on an individual basis, as everyone will learn in a different way. With art specifically, I believe it's important to be helpful and supportive while encouraging new ideas and new techniques. In teaching art, I believe one should work hands-on with the student and the chosen materials, but still introduce theories and ideas about the choices being made to give further meaning to the work. The best art instruction comes from those who are open-minded and allow creativity to blossom while advancing technique. These philosophies are what I strive for in my instruction. During my time at the University of Maine, I completed many courses in both Studio Art and the History of Art. I have studied 2-D and 3-D design, sculpture, painting, drawing, graphic design, and other mixed medias. Under each of those umbrellas I have advanced skills in

During my undergraduate studies, I was involved in various tutoring/mentoring organizations on campus. I served as a mentor for local area children ages 8-14 as part of an after-school "big buddy" program. During my junior and senior years, I tutored newer students in math, science, and engineering courses. Additionally, I served as a teaching assistant for an upper-level engineering course where I was involved in activities such as answering students' questions regarding course materials, and grading assignments and providing constructive feedback. I am currently working on completing a Masters degree part-time, and would like to pursue a career in teaching. I believe that I am a very patient person, as well as someone who is easy to get along with. I would describe my teaching style as calm and focused on fundamentals. For example, when teaching math, I focus on building conceptual und

I believe that students have many ways of learning. I believe that all students have the capability to learn, given the opportunity. I offer many ways of learning and retaining to my students. I use creative and critical thinking skills to my students , so that they may retain and fully understand what they are learning.I strive to "fine tune" every tutoring session to the student. To me, success comes in many different ways, with the result being that the student has 'mastered' the subject to the best of his/her ability. As a Graduate of the College of St. Joseph, I am committed to helping people in my community in any way that best enables them to help themselves. I have earned my Bachelor Degree In Human Services and I have gained the understanding that every one learns differently and at their own pace.I have tutored students in english, Math and science and History.I also have tutor

Each person has their own pace of learning. I am patient and will find what works for your child. I assess individual student needs and provide strategies for student success. I help students by answering questions, reviewing material, explaining concepts, repeating ideas until they are understood, and by modeling good study habits. I can break more difficult concepts down into more easily understood steps. I encourage active learning so the student is able to apply their knowledge to everyday problems. I have recently graduated with degrees in Biological Sciences and Psychology and a minor in Chemistry. I was required to take several classes related to Biology including Chemistry and Physics. The past four years I have been working at the California State University Stanislaus Tutoring Center tutoring fellow students in Chemistry, Zoology, Botany, Genetics, Biology, and Physics c

As an outdoor education instructor and program administrator I have been working and teaching children of all ages for the past 8 years. My bachelors degree is in History, but in addition to my formal education I have plenty of life experience as a coach and mentor to children of varying ages. I love to work with children and helping them learn and explore is a passion of mine. Seeing that lightbulb click on for a child and the excitement they get from discovery and understanding is a thrilling experience everyone should share.

Watching the look on students face as they grasp a concept they are struggling with is what makes teaching and tutoring worthwhile for me. I love the "aha" moment. I have a laid back, but respectful style of tutoring and teaching where I encourage students to think about concepts and how they understand those concepts. While teaching as an intern last semester, I designed lessons where students investigated concepts in small groups and were able to work out their own understandings together. I was able to guide them as they were learning. I also designed my lessons so they were relevant to student's lives. My lesson on the gas laws related to scuba diving and my lesson on specific heat related to general weather patterns. As I have just finished my Master's degree in Education at the University of Vermont, I spent the last school year in Montpelier high school working as a chemistr
