Experienced Teacher Available

I believe in meeting students right where they are, and letting them progress at their own rate. I make learning as relevant as possible and incorporate many hands-on learning opportunities. I present information in a multitude of ways, using modifications and graphic organizers. School should be fun, and most importantly, it should make sense!!
After teaching for 12 years, I decided to step away from the classroom in order to spend more time with my own two kids. I taught in both Rochester City and Brighton, with kids in grades 7-12. Many of my students struggled in school for all different reasons. I would love the opportunity to work with you. School can be really frustrating, but it doesn't have to be. I know a few tricks to help it go more smoothly, and I'd love to share them with you!

I have been tutoring for both adults and adolescents for over five years in a variety of fields. I develop individual learning plans that are designed based on each students strengths and learning style. Additionally, I have found that making the material relevant to life outside of the classroom results in greater mastery. The material will be taught so that it is easily transferable to other areas. I have experience helping students with and without special needs.

My teaching motto is: Learning is fun. You can achieve anything you set your mind to. Hello! I became a teacher in 2003 after spending several years in Retail Management. Although I loved the challenge and fast pace of working in retail, I didn't really feel as though I was making a huge difference in anyone's life by having retail as a career. So, I decided that I would return to school and pursue a degree in something that did make a difference in others' lives. I had always wanted to be a teacher from the time I was a little girl, as my teachers all had a profound effect on my life and I wanted to pass on that effect to other kids who may be struggling in school as I once did. This is nothing more gratifying to me than to see my student's knowledge grow and thrive. I love the moment the student says "a-ha" :) . I am a very thorough teacher who is always making sure that what I teac ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I am very experienced in teaching small groups of college level students. During my senior year of college I was selected to be a Russian apprentice teacher through Kenyon College's Intensive Language Program. I taught students three times per week for approximately an hour each session. I had to go through training for this position, which taught me how to design lessons and utilize teaching tools to help students understand the material. As I am a recent graduate myself, I understand the needs of most students and what it takes to keep them engaged in learning. For example, I frequently used games as memorization tools for students that focused on repetition as a learning aid. In September, I am leaving to take part in the Peace Corps as a teacher of English language in Ukraine. I plan on pursuing teaching as my future career and want to keep building on my experience.

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

A Little Bit About Me...

I am a graduate of Houghton College. I graduated from this liberal arts college on May 12th of this year with a Bachelor’s degree in English/Writing and with a minor in Psychology. During my time at Houghton College, I was very involved with the student-run publications that the school offered. My junior and senior years I worked as a journalist for the school newspaper (http://www.houghtonstar.com/). I wrote articles covering diverse topics ranging from essays on sub-culture to an article covering the Oscars. My senior year, I was given the position of co-editor of the school literary magazine, after having been involved with the publication for two years prior to receiving this position. With this position came the responsibility of dealing with every aspect of the publication process, including finances, production, design, and advertisement, as well as the planning of release ... read more

My comments on tutoring Writing Skills : Current anthropology undergrad who has been published

I have been a student for 17 years. I am currently an anthropology undergrad who hope to become a professor. I am usually the person everyone asks for help with Homework. So i thought tutoring would be a natural fit. I enjoy helping individuals proof read. I enjoy helping students learn and find it is very rewarding to see them grow academically. Tutoring also helps me gain knowledge and experience working with students.

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

A Little Bit About Me...

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 achieve the best they can. I have been teaching kids as a substitute for many years and went back to school in my middle 30's to become a teacher. Unfortunately the availability of teaching positions in my area has prevented me from full time employment but I've kept myself busy subbing and working with young adults and those with disabilities further their educational needs.
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 d ... read more

As one who is interested in mathematics, science, and writing, I thoroughly enjoy sharing those interests with others and helping them to succeed as students. When tutoring, I do not make assumptions as to what the student already knows. Rather, I feel out where the student is at and build up from the student’s current knowledge. I avoid skipping steps while explaining problems or concepts so that the student can follow what I am saying in a logical progression. I also make use of examples to illustrate concepts and to familiarize students with the problem-solving process.
As a graduate of the University at Buffalo, I have supplemented my strong academic background with extensive experience in tutoring. In addition to earning a Bachelor’s Degree in mathematics, I spent the first two years of college completing coursework in physics. The following two years, I worked for the u ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I was fortunate to receive a very distinguished education through a local school of the Arts program and an Ivy League institution. Both experiences produced within me a tenacious commitment to academic excellence, creative expression, and a strong desire to give back to my community. As a result, I have dedicated several years to serving the community in an educational capacity. I have tutored/taught students in grades pre-k to high school (including students with disabilities), in the subjects of math, ELA, science, social studies, and life skills. In addition, I am a prolific writer, and my literary skills have been utilized by employers for script/form letter writing and the production of staff training materials.
I respect all children and the variety of ways in which they learn. I firmly believe that children (by nature) are curious about learning and therefore, capable ... read more
