Elisabeth
Experienced Teacher & Tutor!
I've worked in the field of education for the past 11 years- first as a high school English teacher and then as a college writing instructor and tutor of kids ranging in age from 9-17 years old. The concentration of my own education at D'Youville college and UB was English/Education, with a minor in Philosophy, so I have a solid Liberal Arts background. What I can most help students with is reading fluency, getting their thoughts on paper with greater ease, and improving reading comprehen... Read more

"Poetry is a way of taking life by the throat." ~Robert Frost
As a child, I wasn't very fond of reading. Sure, I read as a child...picture books, stories about monsters and movie adaptations, et cetera. Yet, I cannot say I truly discovered my love for literature until I was in 7th grade. It took a grisled, old teacher to finally open the door to true imagination and the understanding of the written word. She helped to expand my understanding of the world and my own views through timeless tales and the beauty of poetry. Now, I know what you are asking... Read more
Sandra
Passionate AP Biology, Anatomy and Physiology Tutor
My passion for how the human body works was ignited as an exercise science minor in college. I help students create a pool of knowledge to draw from to help them permanently absorb what were once considered discreet and unrelated facts. Helping students become excited about the human body when they recognize how interconnected biological systems are is one of my favorite things about teaching. This occurs when human biology is transformed from tedious memorization of facts to an appreciation... Read more

Taj- Make a difference everyday
I have tutored elementary children all through high school and college. I would volunteer at my local Boys and girls club during the school year and summer. My biggest goal in life is to help make a difference each and everyday. Children are our future, so I love helping them build their education. With that in mind some children need that one on one time that helps them build their academic mind. That’s why in my free time I love tutoring and helping children out. The smile they get on t...

Judy
Social Studies, Elementary Math
I have a degree in Secondary Education from Buffalo State College. I simply love teaching, it is my passion. I have been teaching for over twenty years and it has certainly gave me plenty of joy. It's just incredible seeing a young student progress and have a feeling of accomplishment. I graduated from the same High School where I completed my student teaching, so I am familiar with being on "both sides of the fence", so to speak. I have worked with youths in a variety of settings, whether th... Read more
