About Edith

I am a licensed NYS certified teacher in both biology and chemistry, with over 20 years of teaching experience. I am very familiar with all aspects of the living environment, chemistry and physics high school curricula, as well as all science middle school curricula. Although I am retired, I still enjoy teaching and supporting students.

I enjoy helping students find their "aha" moment when the light bulbs go off, and they finally understand the concept. I have also seen the progress made by the overwhelming majority of my students. After receiving subpar grades, I am happy when they receive good grades, pass the regents with confidence, and avoid summer school! In addition, I have also had students that wish to move good grades to really great grades, and find it rewarding to support students that are motivated to reach high academic standards.

I am a certified NYS biology and chemistry teacher who is currently retired, but still enjoys teaching and coaching. I have many years of experience teaching at the high school and middle school levels. I also train new teachers and serve as a mentor, with a company called Teaching Matters.

About the lesson

Usually, I will ask what unit the student is currently learning, and ask what struggles he or she is having. I might ask to see any handouts or notes the students has already been given. When teaching a topic, I might explain the concept, and/or model a problem that needs to be solved. Then, I will ask the student to solve a similar problem with me, while questioning his or her thinking process. It is imperative that the student explains the WHY of a concept or problem, so that he will be able to answer various problems with slightly different twists and turns in the future. I also use quite a few online simulations/models in my tutoring so that a concept can be better visualized. I also scaffold questioning, so that I ask students easier questions in the beginning, and increasingly more difficult questions toward the end, after they have reached a greater understanding of a concept.

I appreciated the fact that Ms. Schneider was available for my child when she needed chem tutoring right before an exam. My daughter did well on tests, and her confidence in her own studying skills improved after her tutoring experience.

Mrs. Schneider tutored my son in chemistry and he found that she conveyed the information in such a way that he understood it better than he thought was possible. She was thorough, patient and very encouraging.
