Computer Programming Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Anza, CA

I enjoy mentoring others and giving them the benefit of my knowledge and skills. I have always had a "thirst" for knowledge and enjoy sharing with others. I believe that learning is best accomplished through gaining an ability to analyze a problem logically and following a proscribed methodology to solving problems. I received a very basic but thorough education and believe that if we focus on giving students solid skills that we can then stimulate creativity and investigation. We need to ensure that each student gains the confidence that he/she can learn and grow and succeed. I have spent all of my career in Information Technology, in positions from programmer to Vice President. In most of my projects, I've mentored and tutored others in many different areas. I have outstanding written and verbal communications skills. I've taught in Jr/Sr high schools (math) and also in Communit

I am proud to say that I was able to graduate "Summa Cum Laude" with a grade point average of 4.0 during my Masters and Doctorate college years and "Magna Cum Laude" during my bachelor year. I have gained a greater understanding of English,along with how to write essays, outlines, and how to do an extensive amount of research. Over the last 20 years, I have been able to share my knowledge and education with many students. I have always had a deep passion for teaching others. Knowledge is power. It means a better job, a better understanding of the world we live in and it makes for better relationships. My desire is to empower people to help bring out the best in them. I am patient, understanding, and am able to teach students in a simplified way. Nothing is more rewarding than when my students eyes light up when they grasp deep concepts, especially when it is something they have struggled

As a graduate from one of the most prestigious schools in the world, I have the training and experience to motivate and improve a child's ability to learn. I have been a music teacher for four years, working with children of all ages; I am currently working with a special needs child to play the piano. In addition to music, I have written many essays and was encouraged to be an english teach by one of my professors at Cal-state Fullerton. I am a very encouraging and positive teacher. Growing up with seven siblings, I have learned that patience is the best virtue and children need a stress-free enviroment. I love to use analogies and stories to motivate children to enjoy the sessions. I always felt that it was my mission not to be the "typical" tutor; I want children to look forward learning.

Educating students and helping them succeed has been a passion of mine for ten years now, both in the classroom and in one-on-one situations. I began tutoring in high school as a volunteer with the California Scholarship Federation, and I continued through college and beyond with various companies in California. I have tutored and taught elementary, junior high, and high school students Enlish and Math. I completed high school by getting a four on the Calculus AP test. I received my BA in English, my teaching credential, and my MA in Education from the University of California, Davis. I now teach English Language Learners. My wide array of experience and education has given me many skills that I use to promote student success. My vision and goal in working in education is to help students who are struggling and in need of help. These students can so often be overlooked or dismissed as f

I very much enjoy teaching. All children can learn provided they are given the proper guidence. Patience, tolerance, and acceptance on the teachers/tutors part is the key to success. The student must simply be willing to learn, excel, and succeed. All children can meet their potential given a good learning environment, encouragement, and established trust that the teacher/tutor is willing to give freely. When I strive (and I will) the student strives. With this: MISSION ACCOMPLISHED! As a scholar of the Biological Sciences I was very much interested in the Plant Sciences, in particular those entailing agriculture. I did well in the supporting course work including all those pertaining to the Biological Sciences (e.g. Biology, Botany, Bacteriology, Mycology, Microbiology, etc.) I have excellent written and verbal communication skills, have published in scientific and technical jou

In order to move forward in an academic subject, let’s first see where the student is in their understanding of the subject. Perhaps the student's mind is filled with a patch-work of facts and concepts that, together, simply do not make sense. In such a case, the leap from basic memorization to higher-level thinking such as analysis and problem solving will be difficult. But rather than bore the student with things too basic, let's apply what they already know to the unknown. Like any explorer, it becomes fun & exciting to explore the subject; to use one's imagination and creativity to solve surprising problems; to build confidence and interest. Once things click, I’m happily out of a job! With my managerial and marketing experience honed with such firms as IBM, McDonnell-Douglas (now Boeing), American Express and Atlantic-Richfield, combined with my MBA, I can lead a student fr

As an Electrical Engineer graduate, I am very dedicated and devoted towards education. I earned my degree, BS in Electrical Engineering, which enabled me to gain strong areas in math, such as algebra, pre-calculus, and calculus. I also have a lot of experience in preparing lab reports, since throughout my college career I prepared lab reports for all my engineering courses. I am currently a tutor for both Math and English subjects. I have a passion tutoring students of all levels. There are many different tutoring approaches, but with my experience I am able to make a student clearly understand the concepts. I can deliver complete student satisfaction that will improve their grades greatly and make them feel better about themselves. I can make them believe in themselves by showing them that they can also be successful students. My main goal is to make them feel proud, better students, an

My first tutoring experience was in high school, assisting other students in Algebra. I have earned two bachelor degrees, a BS in Business Administration and a BS in Computer Science. After college I worked at an insurance company as an IT Training Advisor. My primary responsibility was to train new software developers on the technologies and best practices used at our company. I also worked at a Medical Device company as a Business Analyst. This position included developing training materials, and delivering training to end users of the software my group developed. After college I also served for ten years as a volunteer Math tutor for adult GED students. I also spent a year tutoring a 3rd grade student in Math and English. I believe that a big part of teaching is listening and observing. Not every student learns the same way, so it is important to be patient and try to understa

At UCR, I was a "drop-in" tutor. This means that for hours of the day in a room with 6 chalkboards, I would teach math to any UCR student who wanted to learn and answer their questions. There was hardly any down time at all; I was constantly working. I had a team of tutors that I first worked with, then managed as a mentor in my last year. As a Mentor, I kept the team's understanding of the curriculum solid as a group effort. The mentors and the tutoring program coordinator held weekly meetings with regards to our various tutoring teams. I have good experience managing a team, and being part of a team of teams in a board room. Even as a Mentor, most of my time was spent in the Drop-In room tutoring people. Persistent and patience with the student, foundation first for the material. . Especially with math, higher concepts won't be "grasped" unless the lower ones are mastered. Also, I find

Graduating from an engineering school gave me the skills of working hard and doing the very best in obtaining personal goals. I have a BS degree in Computer Engineering, which includes a minor in verbal communications. This means I have a deep background in mathematics and analytical concepts, plus, I have comprehensive understanding of grammatical and writing skills due to writing essays for my communication classes and lab reports for my engineering classes. I learn along the way that helping others achieve similar goals is a fulfilling experience. I believe in helping others through mentoring and tutoring. It is a fulfilling experience seeing children achieve their goals and overcoming their difficulties and striving to be a better student. I sincerely believe all children can learn, but some at a different pace. I empathize a child's struggles in school because I was once like that,

As a UCR graduate, I have been devoted to acquiring and developing my skills acquired during school. I earned a BA degree in Political Science which has enabled me to gain experience in the way the government works, and also further developed my writing, reading and analytical skills. With my family owning group homes for troubled boys aged 7-17 there were countless times that I volunteered to tutor the kids who were having trouble in school. Recently, I am in the process of becoming a CASA worker which is a volunteer mentor for a child who is the foster care system. I love working with youth but especially young children because they are, in my view, easier to work with. I understand that every child is different and some will be oral learners, visual learners, etc. Every one has a method of learning that works for them and I am more than willing to adapt and adjust to each individual c

I am a 'relaxed' teacher, but maintain - or try to maintain - a good study pace. The individual I may be tutoring may require different approaches to try and learn the material at-hand; however, I have always found that with a positive attitude and a constructive approach to any learning 'issue' the solution is normally found between both the student and the tutor (as to the best study method works for the individual at-hand). As an undergraduate student at the University of California Santa Barbara I found and nurtured a love to pass-on learned experiences to others. The program I was heavily involved with was named MESA (Mathematics, Engineering, and Science Achievement). Being an engineer, I tutored students at different High Schools and found great pleasure in seeing how other kid's faces could 'sparkle,' when they found-out that they could solve problems which they may have not even
