Altogether I am a very patient smart person eager to help new students learn; and if you want to have fun while learning, then I am the perfect tutor for you.

Since I'm not a teacher and don't follow a schedule or have designated hours, I feel like I can be a lot more patient and easy going with students. I'd like to pride myself in how well I can take a complex idea and break it down into its sub-parts and explain it simplistically. While in a class, students may not get the attention they require, which is why I like working one on one or in small groups as that way I can get a feel of what each student needs to meet his/her potential. As long as I could remember academics have come quite easily to me, from elementary school to current classes in college. Prior to this year I've only helped out my sister extensively as she has had problems understanding most teacher's methods. I understand nearly every aspect of math up to Algebra II along with most English, philosophy, and psychology classes and have helped people that I shared a class with

I earned two Associate's degree while playing volleyball for my college and I maintained a 3.5 GPA. I was captain of my team. I can lead without dictating and I am a good listener. I have tutored a wide range of people, ranging from high school students to nurses. I will earn my BS in Biology this year from Fresno State. I am passionate about the field of biology and am involved in undergraduate research at the university. My teaching style can be best summarized as relatable. With regard to tutoring biology, I use analogies, diagrams, and plain english (as opposed to field jargon) to help students understand. I am patient and greatly enjoy that "Eureka!" moment when a student begins to grasp basic concepts.

For me, relating to children is effortless; I am quite apt to quickly gaining their attention as well as their confidence. Sadly, many students face the challenge of losing focus; as a teacher, I hope to be able to instill unwavering motivation and drive into each student, and help shape their characters that is essential in fulfilling a rewarding life as they enter into adulthood. All it takes is an influential mentor who is willing to put in 110 percent long after school hours are over. Educators should not only teach, but also still strive to continue to expand their own knowledge in order to exemplify to our students the importance of opening one's mind and broadening one's perspectives. My experience with teaching began in 2004 as a volunteer for William Saroyan Elementary School in Fresno, CA. I went on to graduate from CSUFresno with a Bachelor's Degree in Biology; Science is my p

I am a very down to earth person especially when it comes to kids. I always try to lighten up the mood and make learning things interesting and fun. I don't like to dismiss when I see a child having trouble in something. Every person has a different way of learning, I try to cater to each of their needs. I have tutored children in reading last summer. It was one of the most gratifying things I have done. I worked with English as second language children ranging from ages 5 to 13. We used a lesson plan and several activities to help children in achieving their reading level goals. Also, in my undergrad experience, I excelled in writing and was very good with meeting deadlines.

It seems to me that everyone can learn, in different ways and at different times. My approach is to have several options of which approach will be successful. Being a 1:1 teacher allows me the freedom and time to work with a student on a concept in a number of ways until the cognition sets in for him. Being enthusiastic and excited about the learning experience is contagious. I always think about the teachers who were indifferent compared to the ones who were animated. I am definitely animated, excited, and enthusiastic. I believe in combining visual, tactile, and aural whenever possible. My experience in the teaching field has been primarily as a substitute on a daily basis. I have some long-term sub assignments in my resume as well. For the past 7 years I have limited my assignments to "Home/Hospital". I meet 5 hours per week with each student to provide complete instruction in al
