Experience
Hello! I am Prof. Solange Martinez. I teach Kinder Garden through College in Yonkers, New York. If you're looking for a teacher who will motivate and inspire you, I'd love to help you. Learning does not have to be difficult. We'll work on your learning, together, and have fun doing so! I am certified to teach in New York and New Jersey and I teach at public schools, libraries, at your home, and online (according to NY & NJ state law). I accept students who are at any level and at any age. I have been teaching for approximately 22 years, and have worked with more than 50,000 students. Whether you want to learn the humanities or the sciences, I'll personalize your lessons based on your specific needs and goals. I am interested in your academic case. I charge $75 per hour; but if you purchase 10 hours of my tutoring, I will only charge you $50 per hour (however long you need to continue the tutoring for THIS student). However, I need to meet and access the children, first. Children who are Special Ed. might require much more work and therefore, the price might be higher. I will let you know AFTER I meet them and access their needs. Also, if there is a toll, you would have to pay for it. I pay for the gas. My tutoring site is Yonkers, NY 10705. I am a NYS and NJS-Certified School Teacher. I am also a College Professor; I have a Masters in Teaching and an English Degree (with Spanish and History as minors). I have taught Mathematics [Algebra and Trigonometry, elementary and intermediate Math], Spanish and English-Grammar, as well as Literature, phonics and other subjects, to the elementary, intermediate, high school, and college students very successfully. I also have taught computers. Additionally, I have been teaching for 22 years. I specialize in Study Skills and Learning and I will tutor for you. You can contact me at 914.619.8362. Since I am very busy, I prefer that you text, me. I charge $75 dollars per hour and have my own car. Sincerely, PROF. SOLANGE MARTINEZ City University of New York Professor Spanish Interpreter/Translator for the State and Federal Government Notary Public New York State Service Coordinator New York State Certified Mediator New York State Certified Public School Teacher (Kindergarten through College) New Jersey State Certified Public School Teacher (Kindergarten through College)
