I am very caring and cautious that each student learns in their own way and my teaching will be based on the students needs.
I have worked with many different age groups ranging from 7-40 years old. I currently do a lot of volunteer work where I tutor less privileged children. I have also done a lot of tutoring for college students who are struggling their first year in college. I am currently working with with second grade level students.

Everyone can learn; and everyone deserves the opportunity to learn whatever he or she needs to successfully achieve his or her highest personal, social, and educational goals. Every learner is unique and deserves learning situations tailored to activate and engage their unique background and learning style. In addition, everyone has an innate desire to learn and the goal of education is to engage this desire for learning in ways that are personally relevant to each individual learner. When students are expected to learn and engaged with their innate desire to learn through differentiated instruction that meets their individual learning style, they will live up to the expectations presented to them.

A Little Bit About Me...

I love working with children and helping them discover the world around them. Every child is capable of learning, but in his or her own way, and the key is find what works best for each one. I am patient, considerate, and kind, treating each child as I like to be treated. I try to build on past experiences and knowledge so the child can relate what is being taught to his or her world, making it relevant to the here and now. Every child can realize their learning potential if their teachers provide a safe and appropriate environment. My goal is to provide that environment, and help them achieve the academic success they need, and thus make a difference in their lives.
My BA degree in General Studies: Humanities/Fine & Performing Arts gives me a broad base in general education, allowing me to be better able to help young students in their scholastic endeavors. Through various c ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I am dedicated to instilling knowledge and providing the means, or tools, to acquire knowledge. My expertise lies in the ability to individualize learning using the learning modality that best suits each student. I discover what hinders one's academic progress and correct it filling the gaps in an individual's education. All students can learn. It is my duty to discover how and use their abilities to achieve. All students must experience success; they cannot achieve it if they do not know what it is and what it feels like. My students succeed.
My greatest achievement is to have been inducted into "Who's Who Among America's Teachers" for four years by former junior high school students. Students in the top 15% of their high school graduating class are allowed the priviledge of nominating one teacher who has made the greatest difference in their lives. To be remembered as this person ... read more

I believe that an open dialogue is a teacher's most needed resource. Any child needs to feel as though he or she can express concerns or apprehensions without the fear of feeling embarrassed or stupid. I truly believe that there is no such thing as a stupid question. Teaching should, of course, relay necessary information, but it should also foster a student's drive to succeed, as well as the knowledge that any goal can be reached through perserverance. I enjoy helping students of all ages, and I look forward to what my students will inevitably teach me.
I am a California State University, Los Angeles graduate, holding a BA in English, with a specific focus on clasroom teaching. Throughout high school and college, I was driven to assist my peers, using my knowledge to ensure that they understood the subject matter and would succeed in any academic endeavors.

A Little Bit About Me...

I enjoy seeing children discover the world around them in their own ways. Therefore, I teach the importance of working things out until you understand it for yourself. Children will meet and often surpass any goal that is given to them if you show that you believe in them. I use a hands-on approach, as much as possible, with a problem-solving emphasis. I firmly believe that a child remembers things more if he is able to work it out for himself. As a result, I take more of a mentoring position the older the child is. It was in this way that my daughter received both an AA and an AS degree the night she received her high school diploma.
I began teaching at Hesperia Christian in 1995. First, I substituted and then taught part-time, two to four subjects a year: Advanced Math and Drama, 5 years; Biology, 1 year; and Advanced Drama, 3 years. When my son started seventh grade, I b ... read more

More About This Tutor...

Throughout my college years I have been employed by two different after school programs for a combined amount of 6 years tutoring/teaching in public school after school programs. (Grades K-6) I also spent 2 months teaching full time 3rd and 4th grade after college prior to unfortunately being laid off due to financial losses in the school. I also tutored English in college through an Advanced English class I was placed in.
I have a passion and calling for working with children. From the time I was a child, I knew this is what I was meant to do. I believe children are the hope of our country, and that every child is capable of learning and expanding their knowledge. Knowledge is power, and if a child is given the proper encouragement and motivation they can and will succeed. I consider it an amazing privilege to be an educator and make a difference in the lives of my students.

In my 40+ years of experience in the field of education, I have taught full time at all grade levels, from pre-school to teacher training. In the field of adult education have taught writing to Chinese-speaking adults, which enabed them to pass the California teacher exam. I have taught remedial reading classes, and after-school tutoring programs at education centers and in individual homes.
My teaching style centers around the value of the students. They deserve respect and are required to give respect. My students are generlly relaxed in my classroom, but expected to work to their best ability. To that end I try to present material in a variety of ways, to address the various learning styls of the students, and discover methods to remedy weaknesses and build on strengths.

?I have a BA degree with a minor in English. These courses were done in French. I also studied Hebrew and Greek. During these studies I had many research papers and a thesis to do. Often I assisted several students in English Grammar during the past four years of school. In the past I took several courses on Family Life from a university in Michigan because of my keen interest in human relationships
?I enjoy relating with children and young people. Children face challenges in the learning process and there’s no shame in having someone assisting them over the hurdles. I would do my outmost to connect with your child so that I can understand how he or she reasons, and give the individual attention that can make a difference in the child’s academic success.

I have earned 2 degrees, B.S. in Business Administration with a concentration in Finance and an MBA with a concentration in Finance. These degrees have enabled me to have much improved skills in paper writing and math. I have done extremely well in English, Philosophy, and Business writing. In 2008, I became a substitute teacher and it was a great experience working with children of all grades and subjects. Arabic is my native language. I took Arabic classes from K-12 and completed mandatory Arabic examinations by the government of education, which I then earned a certificate of excellence. Furthermore, French is my third language and took classes from K-12 and a college course. I believe I can tutor French at the beginner's level.
I have always been fond of children and teaching. I had a reputation of being a great substitute teacher at different schools. I am a firm believer in h ... read more

It truly depends on the student and the subject. I try to adapt my teaching style to what the student needs. If one approach is not working, then we can work together to find an approach that does. I believe that it is important for the student to be able to relate to the teacher and it is the teachers job to create that connection.
Over the past 15 years I have had variety of different teaching experiences. I taught literature as a TA at UC Santa Barbara while studying for my Masters. I have tutored K-12 students in both Math and English. While studying for my undergraduate I assited in running a homeless shelter where I taught many of the children reading, writing, and math. I have a passion for teaching and am a mother myself and understand the true value of educating our youth.
