My GPA was a 3.8 and I graduated with my master's in education in 2013. I want to be a tutor because I want to be able to help individuals achieve their goals. Many students either struggle or just want that extra focus to be able to improve their scores and that's what I want to help with. I have worked with high ... Read more

Traditional Drawing and Painting Skills - Solid Foundation
I've been an artist since before I could even talk. Drawing is the core of my self expression as well as the basis for all good art making (in my opinion), regardless of the final form it may take. It has been said that you can't fix a bad drawing with paint - and I have seen this to be true no matter what kind of "paint" the creator chooses to apply! Good drawing skills can and should be learned by anyone who wishes to communicate in a visual medium. I take a very traditional approach to dra... Read more

Test Prep for Nursing Students!
I was a teacher for 12 years before becoming a nurse. I have 14 years of nursing experience and hold both BS and MS degrees in nursing with a masters concentration in nursing education. My method of teaching for the boards is more effective then the expensive programs that many students use. I look at the way the student learns and I teach effective methods to answer questions correctly. I have helped many students who have failed the NCLEX the first time pass after only 5-10 sessions. I ... Read more

One of my favorite things to do is to help people learn and grow to whatever level they find desirable. After Chess, Psychotherapy and Martial Arts are of keen interest. I taught chess at three Private schools, in Albany, Schenectady and Latham NY, and at my former Psychotherapy office. Every curriculum I work at is specialized to the individual, couple, or group's needs. Wherever you, your partner or child are in the continuum of development, I'd like to be there to help turn to the nex... Read more
