Award-Winning Tutors from Syracuse University

I am Lindsay. I am an avid lover of language, literature, writing, learning, artistic endeavors, athleticism, nutrition, and enhancement of the mind through those pursuits. That being said, I’d like to share my passion and enthusiasm for learning with you.I have been a teacher for 6 years. My teaching experiences are as follows:- middle school children English in the United States as a classroom assistant- middle school children English in Mexico as a lead teacher- American and international university age students Spanish as a part time instructor- high school age students Spanish as a high school teacher- international adults English at a non-profit center in Syracuse, as a student-teacher- kids yoga classes as the lead teacher- adult hatha yoga classes, asana, pranayama, meditation as the lead teacher- high school girls volleyball,basketball and track coachMy idea when I am teaching is that I am a facilitator. That means that you know how to do everything, you just don’t know that you know. My job is to show you that you have everything you need to do it yourself. Therefore, I ask questions to guide you, and in time you will see that you do indeed possess the necessary mental forces to complete the tasks before you of your own accord!When dealing with language, I use the communicative language approach, and focus on instilling a student-centered learning environment. I both create and ask the student to take part in creating course materials and shaping course content to foster interest in both learning and participating in their personal learning progress. I attempt to create an environment where a student feels no fear to ask questions, and is able to verbalize and communicate, and also is able to travel outside the classroom and use what we’ve learned in authentic contexts. I closely monitor student progress, and also am more than open to emailing and meeting at the student’s convenience.As far as my personality goes, I am a very caring, silly, open-minded individual. I genuinely am concerned for the welfare of those around me, which is why I am a yoga instructor. I also love academic pursuits, which is why I hope to be a tutor for who ever needs assistance.

I am a recent graduate of Syracuse University where I earned a Bachelor of Science Degree in Psychology and minors in both Biology and Medical Anthropology. Throughout my undergraduate career, I mentored small groups of Biology I and II students, guiding them through problem sets and study modules. I was also a Research Assistant in an undergraduate Psychology lab examining the effect of implementing reading and writing probes on third-grade students' literacy. My strengths lie in subjects such as Biology, Math, and Psychology and I am passionate about guiding students through subjects in a manner that is conducive to their individual learning styles.As a student, it took me some time to discover my own study habits through trial and error. I wish I had a mentor that was able to guide and support me during that process and I strive to be that mentor for my students. Together, we will assess and build your strengths, while noting weaker areas and developing methods to improve upon them.Currently, I am preparing my applications to Dental School. In my spare time, I enjoy spending time outdoors, cooking, and painting!

Moreover, my know-how to design and conduct workshops and develop interactive materials for students would enable me to produce excellent results. Additionally, I possess a positive attitude and a passion to assist struggling learners.

I am passionate to help students of all types and situations, to be more successful in a challenging topic like chemistry to accomplish their aspirational goals. Too many students are not given a proper opportunity by not having an instructor who is interested in them and wants the best for them.I have a Bachelor's (BS) in Biochemistry, and a Masters' (M.S.) and Doctorate (Ph.D.) in Chemistry. I have been teaching and tutoring for almost 20 years as an undergraduate student, graduate student, and now a full-time chemistry instructor and have tutored and taught High School students, University-level students, Community College students, military, returning adult learners, you name it, I've probably have taught it.I most enjoy General, Organic, and Biochemistry topics. I teach in a "I do, We do, You do" philosophy where we work through a problem together and then you attempt it. Chemistry, as most math and science courses, is best learned by doing rather than watching and having a professor tell you instead of discussing it with you.

I appreciate the opportunity to share what I've learned with others, to help them succeed. I am a retired civil service employee with extensive experience in defense planning and budget. My interests and hobbies include investments, and strategy games.

The Montessori philosophy, "individual, freedom within limits," is the teaching style that I adopt.

I recently graduated with a 3.6 GPA from the S.I. Newhouse School of Public Communications at Syracuse University, which is regarded as arguably the top communications program in the country. This comes after graduating from North Hunterdon High School with a 3.8 GPA and a 2140 composite SAT score. My best subject on the SAT was math, although I also scored highly on both the reading comprehension and writing sections. I also took the LSAT this year, scoring a 168 (96th percentile), which I actually found frustrating because it was lower than every single one of my practice tests (with my personal best being a 174). Because of this, I learned from my mistakes and am able to tutor both the subject matter of the LSAT as well as how to prepare for the test. I will be attending Vanderbilt Law School on a majority scholarship in the Fall.

Hello. I am a Spanish professor with Austin Community College.

Students have told me I am patient and calm as a teacher. Since I have taught young people and older students I feel I have a good understanding of how to present a given concept to a specific student. I am well aware that some younger learners struggle with attention span. For this reason I use fun activities and age appropriate materials. In the past I have tutored businessmen and women who had specific goals for a trip to a Spanish speaking country. I feel comfortable teaching both adults and children. As far as materials I have plenty to offer. I designed my own language learning website that covers the grammar learned in Spanish I and II.I look forward to working with anyone who needs help with Spanish.

After graduating, I worked as a Technology Consulting in Financial Services for a large audit firm in New York City, before moving to the Copenhagen branch for one year. While available to assist with a broad range of subjects, I especially enjoy assisting students with mathematics, physics, and English.

Tutoring students part-time is not only a job, but I find it one of the more worth-while uses of one's time, to be able to foster an environment where students learn to think critically and analyze the situation at hand, so that they can apply these various skills and practices for the rest of their lives.
