Everyone Can Learn!

Hello, I have been in education for many years, and have raised four grown children. Over the years as a tutor, teacher, adjunct instructor, and an academic advisor, I can honestly say with conviction that every student has the ability to learn. As Howard Gardiner suggests, we all have multiple intelligences. I believe it is the responsibility of the tutor and teacher to determine each student's specific learning style, and teach to this intelligence. With my background in psychology... Read more


Susan

Ivy Grad, Poet & College-level Writing Instructor

Dear Students and Parents, When I was in school, I had favorite teachers. They weren't merely the ones who were funny and nice; they were the ones who engaged me, enthralled me and taught me lessons and skills that I use and benefit from today. English -- or, really, anything involving reading, writing and communicating -- was and continues to be my true love. Having taught creative writing for years, as well as worked successfully with students on their application essays for college and g... Read more

Psychotherapist teaches Chess :)

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

I have been working in pharmaceutical and chemical production since, but have always continued to coach (motorcycling, fitness) and teach (even if it's just my 2 boys). In both, I enjoy the f...
