A Little Bit About Me...

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 time in school.
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 educ ... read more

I graduated Magna Cum Laude in 2007 from SUNY Brockport with an undergraduate degree in Elementary Education, English and Special Education. I have worked as a substitute teacher in all grade levels and in all subject areas. I have been accepted into a high degree Masters program but feel I need to have a job to justify the repayment(s) of additional student loans that would be needed to finish my MA. I have recently been a four county advocate for people with special needs as the Disabilities Program Navigator. I would still hold this position if funding had not run out. I have the abilities to work with any level of education.
I love to work with children of any age. I have been volunteering for over 15 years helping wherever and whenever I can to help make the lives of children more enriched. I have two boys of my own (age 10 and 14) and have been successful in helping them ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

The great joy for me in teaching literature and composition is sharing strategies for powerful communication to students who are blocked. Although I am inspired and passionate about English, I enjoy demystifying it and revealing how skills in other areas not only apply but can be key. Whether helping readers gain access to poetry or sharing methods to help organize thoughts or research for an essay, I enjoy helping students identify and craft their own insights into effective and powerful messages.
As a Magna Cum Laude graduate, my ten years of professional teaching experience as a lead teacher of secondary English is interspersed with a variety of other relevant experience. In addition to teaching literature, composition and grammar, I have also tutored professionally for Kaplan as part of the federally mandated No Child Left Behind program and for other private tutoring service ... read more

The very first task is to assess the student's age and learning style. Once this is determined I select the teaching style to best accomodate the student's needs. Although I have used Expert and Formal formats, I prefer to incorporated Personal and Facilitator styles. Personal establishes a prototype for how to think and behave. It oversees, guides, and directs by showing how to do things. Facilitator guides and directs students by asking questions, exploring options, suggesting alternatives. The goal is to develop the capacity for critical thinking, initiative, and responsibility with lots of encouragement and support.
Throughout my career in business and education I have always loved and appreciated the opportunity to teach and to mentor. I have worked in several college and vocational school departments including teaching, financial aid counseling, registrar, student affairs, ca ... read more

I have had a love of teaching since I was a young child. I have always wanted to be the teacher as we played school. My teaching style is one as a facilitator.

My focus is on students’ needs and goals and the willingness to explore options and alternative courses of action. My teaching methods include asking questions, exploring options, suggesting alternatives and encouraging students to develop criteria to make informed choices.

I am interested in tutoring because I love teaching regardless of the subject matter. I’ve been lucky enough to be given the opportunity to try several different content areas such as Special Education 7th grade Science in a Push-In model, ESOL, Home and Careers, Career and Financial Management as well as substitute teaching in many areas K-12, in addition to teaching technology in multiple districts. My background as a manufacturing engineer gives me a vantage point of what is required in the real world for success and survival in the working world. Even though teaching is my second career, it is truly what I love to do. Working one to one with students to help them find success in school, while enjoying learning, is my personal goal.
Once in a classroom I realized that I was meant to teach. I love working with students who are challenging and those who challenge me. I believe tha ... read more

I enjoy teaching one on one more then in a group class setting and I do enjoy teaching individual more then in a group setting. I do wish to teach "Chinese" as a personal language when I retire in the future if we don't have SS since I am a baby boomer (hope this is not true)
Born as a Chinese national and I speak fluent Chinese Mandarin language and I studied Business in Accounting and graduated from SUNY Brockport in 1990 and my mathematical course I always get "A" on my grade (I even get 105 on my test score, believe it or not) and I still love math. Therefore I can tutoring not only business in Accounting and also Math or language in Chinese.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have taught students in grades 1--5 as a substitute teacher in the Rochester, NY public school system and full time as a teacher of 9th and 10th grade English (one semester) and 7th grade Science (one semester) in a private school. In addition, I have developed curriculum and instructed groups of adult learners in the areas of grant-writing, customer service, software use, and business communications. Since 1996, as a freelance writer and editor, I have worked for a national law firm, graduate students preparing their doctoral dissertations, and non-fiction writers of articles and book length material.
As all of us are unique human beings, we have unique learning styles and learn best when we are using these styles to acquire and use information. I am continually amazed at the progress each student can make when encouraged to use the skills he possesses. As a teacher, I try to il ... read more

Throughout my academic career, I have been motivated to achieve at a high level, regardless of the discipline I was studying. This motivation has allowed me to obtain two bachelor degrees, a BS in Business Administration and a BA in Psychology. My specialization in two distinct areas has allowed me to adapt to a variety of research and writing methods. Starting at an early age, I was able to gain experience teaching skills to others as a member of the Boy Scouts of America and eventually achieved the rank of Eagle Scout. I have also mentored adolescents in a variety of areas while working as a youth counselor.
I have always aspired to adapt my teaching techniques to each student on an individual basis. I have been successful in doing so by utilizing a vast array of methodologies to instruct and provide examples which are relevant to each unique student. I believe there is no ... read more

My career has been in nonprofit and small business management, and I have also enjoyed opportunities in teaching and training in many settings. At two Rochester NY colleges, I have been an adjunct instructor and tutor in business writing, public speaking, literature, and more. In my consulting business, I have delivered corporate and nonprofit training in management and marketing. One of my favorite experiences has been in tutoring English speaking, writing, and American culture to new adult and teen refugees from several continents.
I love teaching teenagers and adults. My students consider me to be organized, upbeat, humorous, and creative. Learning tough subjects does not have to be a grind or scary.

Since learning is such an individual endeavor, I believe that flexibility is one of the most important ingredients for good teaching. A good teacher (or tutor) is responsive to the student's learning style, and indeed, to the student's mood during any given learning session. I feel that I am attuned to the cues that most students give and am able to respond with an a approach that would be most effective. If the student is a visual learner, we will work with that in mind. If he or she learns better by being actively involved, then I take on the role of a coach. Obviously, one size does not fit all!
I have had a variety of experiences that have prepared me to tutor students at the elementary, middle school and high school level. I have taught Sunday School for several years. I also was on a team that created a training system at Eastman Kodak and then trained production worke ... read more
