Testing Strategies Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Burrel, CA

I've always enjoyed helping others understand mathematics. During my high school years i would voluntarily help my friends, and the classmates near me keep up with class lectures and provide them with tips to help them complete take home assignments. I know the importance of having a personalized method of teaching according to the individual and their specific needs. No one learns the same so we should not be taught the same! Most of the students who require tutoring have trouble building on previous lessons they have learned. The problem is if a student fails to learn a concept in class by the time the teacher moves on, he/she will be left behind from that point on. The job of a tutor is to find these hold ups and patch them with a customized lesson plan to fit the students learning patterns. This is what i will do and i personally promise results in under a month

I have also served in the capacity of Literacy Coach training other teachers, and as a intervention specialist. I have experience teaching special needs students as well as advanced learners. I also teach credit recovery classes for high school students who have failed a course the first time. My teaching style is dependent upon the student's learning style.

Same as above. My teaching 'style' is a bit unique, in my opinion. By that, I mean that every child/student 'learns' differently, so I must 'adapt' my style 'on the fly' after determining what is the most effective approach/style/method for that individual student. In addition, the subject that I am teaching also affects my style and some 'tools' that I learned as a youngster and a teacher are also implemented frequently. I was trained to be a teacher at CSU-Fresno, where I graduated in May, 1999. I substituted for 3 consecutive years in Fresno, Clovis, and Madera Unified School districts at grade levels 3-12. I received my Master's Degree in Sports Administration from the American Public University system in May, 2011, and graduated with Honors and a 4.0 GPA. I am currently trying to obtain my credential and hope to be an Athletic Director one day.

For the past five years, I have been teaching in a classroom. I have taught 6th grade for two years, 4th grade for two years and 3rd grade for a year. I have taught multiple subjects, including reading,writing, math, and English Language Development. I Believe: Every student can succeed. Each student is unique. Students should have individual accountability for learning. Goals need to be set so the students know what direction they are going. Cooperative learning is a way for students to be involved in the learning process. Curriculum should have a connection in students’ lives as well as be progressive and motivational. Consistency allows the students to develop a routine and know what is expected from them. Communication is the key in running an effective classroom. Students should have a part in establishing classroom rules and consequences. Classroom management, with an e

I stated tutoring privately and through the college when I was a student myself to see if teaching was something I wanted to do as a career. I tutored all my college years and realized that this is exactly what I want to wake up for every day. I earned my BS and single subject in Mathematics from Fresno State University. I have worked with students at all levels. I have tutored students as young as 5th graders and gone through levels of math from basic math to some graduate courses. I have been teaching for 9 years at high school up to pre-calculus. I teach because I want students to feel the same passion for math as I do and not be intimidated by it as lots of students are of mathematics. I think each student is differnt and so is their learning style. As a teacher I want my student to find their confidence in math which mostly comes when they understand the subject completely.

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

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.

As a recent graduate from UC Berkeley, I have always held the upmost interest and passion in helping students achieve the best they could. I received my degree in American studies, this degree is designed to allow students to create their own educational path within Berkeley's campus. I designed mine to encompass child development, education, and psychology. With that, I have been able to learn different approaches in teaching individual learning types. I worked as a recreational program instructor for 3 years. There I helped students from the grades 3-6 with their homework on a daily basis, in all subjects. My approach in teaching is unique. I have an autistic sibling and a son with an individualized education program, so my understanding of approaching children is on an individual basis.

As a passionate educator, I was motivated to learn various teaching strategies that enhanced my desire to teach every student in need of an excellent education. To receive my Bachelor of Science degree in Elementary Education tremendously enhanced my knowledge to expand the horizon of every student that I taught. As an educator it is essential to know various teaching strategies for teaching math, reading, writing, science, social studies, art, and physical education. Various authentic assessments, integrated thematic units, hands on manipulatives, multicultural curriculum development , rubrics/portfolios, and building repoire with every student is of great significance in my teaching strategies. Therefore it is my goal to create autonomy for every lesson and to build resilience for every student I taught. It is essential to build repoire with every student. Every child learns var

I have been working with students since I was in Middle School myself. I went to college to become a special education teacher and am currently working as a resource specialist. I work with students who have learning disabilities, are at risk, have emotional disturbances, autism, or just need a helping hand. I have also taught in general education classrooms. I believe every child is capable of matching and exceeding our highest expectations. Every child learns differently and that is my approach. I don't believe in cookie cutter education. I design programs around students interests, needs, and abilities. I believe that positive feedback and reinforcement get better results than negativity, and it is my job to help your child be successful. It is my job to help your child buy into their own education and realize how great it is to be a lifelong learner.

My five years of teaching has reinforced my belief that all students are capable of learning. I believe that learning is one part effort and one part technique. If a person is willing, they can, and will, learn. It is my job to teach the proper skills and techniques needed for learning. I believe that a fundamental goal for all students should be to gain excellent reading and writing skills. As a teacher, it has been my joy to discover each student’s learning style and develop different methods for reaching different students. I am patient and believe in treating people with respect. I feel I am understanding, yet demanding. I expect my students to put forth their ultimate effort. I graduated summa cum laude with a BA in Communication and a Minor in Bible.
