A Little Bit About Me...

I taught basic music to children in Orange County, California and loved it. I went to their homes. I do not have a teaching credential but I love to teach. The grammer school I went to in Upper Montclair, New Jersey was run by Dominican Nuns and they instilled the love of reading and how to comprehend whatever you read.

A Little Bit About Me...

I believe that every child deserves an equal opportunity at receiving a good education. Although each child may pursue differnet educational opportunities in later years, I believe that there is a core body of knowledge, presented to us in the curriculum, that each can and should be exposed to while they are in the lower. However, I realize that all children do not learn new concepts and strategies by the same methods or at the same rate as one another. For that reason, I support the use of differentiated instruction as a means to effectively communicate that knowledge. I see no better opportunity to implement differentiated instruction, aside from regular classroom instruction, than through tutoring.

A Little Bit About Me...

Because of my work with persons who have physical and mental problems, I have learned to be patient and sharpen my listening skills. This way I am also able to recognize when someone is frustrated or exhausted and use these signs to better cope with any behavioral problems that may arise. I always utilize positive language and seek to understand an issue a student may have to help promote a comfortable learning environment. I find that many students respond well to a good listener and someone that takes time to give them individualized attention.
I have a BA in Anthropology which means that I have experience working with diverse groups of people and have a certain understanding and appreciation of the differences among individuals. I have many years of experience tutoring adults and K-12 students. Some of my students have included those with mental disorders and physical handicaps. ... read more

During my last four years I have been given several opportunities to interact and educate students of all ages. Working with the Upward Bound Program I tutored high school students in various subjects. As a varsity basketball player I was frequently in charge of teaching the sport's fundamental skills necessary to younger children. While this kind of education differs from one received in the classroom, I believe that the objective is similar in that students are being taught essential elements of a subject. My bachelors degree in Biology and minor in Chemistry give me adequate knowledge on the material and my grammatical skills have been shaped by the numerous research papers and reports I have written.
I thoroughly enjoy working and education children. Whether it is on the basketball court or in the classroom, teaching children how to succeed and learn has always been a passion o ... read more

In 1999, I earned a bachelor's degree in journalism with an emphasis in creative writing from Pepperdine University. I spent the next decade honing my skills as a copy editor at daily newspapers. I have spent considerable time in and out of the office studying grammar books. A few years ago, I tutored a student in English. His mother reported significant improvement in his writing and comprehension. I specialize in grammar, punctuation and syntax. And while I am light in tutoring experience, I am one of the few tutors who can point to a grammar-heavy career and say, "This is the practical application of the skills you are learning."
First, I need to know over what and why the student is struggling. Once I know the problem, I can help the student gain the confidence and knowledge necessary to learn the material. My son learns in a unique way, and that has reinforced the reality that ... read more

I feel that having a positive influence on today’s youth is an extremely vital profession, and one that shapes the future of each individual I will encounter. I believe each student is unique; regardless of their age, cultural background, ethnicity, physical or mental disorder, and is entitled to receiving a fulfilling education which facilitates in maximizing each student’s potential. Each and every child brings their own sense of uniqueness and individuality to the world, and as an educator, it is my responsibility to create a learning environment which celebrates this.

I taught Court Reporting English (4 levels) for a private college in Bakersfield, CA., from 1986-1990. I have been tutoring students in English off and on for the past 18 years. Teaching-tutoring has always been an avocation rather than my vocation. I have some spare evening time and would like to continue to tutor.
My teaching style is to get my students involved in the English process; from grammar to vocabulary to basic syntax, I try to make my classes fun and interesting as well as productive. English has always excited me and I want my students to be excited as well. I am often amazed at how a student's skill level improves when a teacher brings an element of fun to a classroom. A good example is having my students each bring a vocabulary word to class that they have recently heard or seen and try to "stump the teacher".
