I feel like I'm very much a hands-on type of instructor. I really believe that the best way to understand something is to keep practicing it and so I like to guide and help speed up this process by giving lots of examples and feedback. I also believe that there's no use learning something if you don't learn it right and it's that belief that makes me so dedicated to my job. Graduated with honors from Modesto Junior College with an Associates in Music. Four semesters of Piano at the college, five semesters of Voice, four semesters of Music Theory and ear training, four semesters of choir, and two semesters of Electronic Music. As a student I have a firm grasp on music fundamentals and the basics of music theory as well as some voice and piano pedagogy.

As a recent college graduate with a BA in Spanish and a BA in International Affairs, I possess current experiences from my studies in the United States, Europe and South America. Since attending college in Spain and Argentina I understand word usage and vocabulary differences within the Spanish language. Mixed with my superior Spanish skills I am able to discuss and explain political differences in Spanish and explain, on a historical level, how government has evolved internationally. As a past member of the Sacramento Jazz Society I also have a strong background in music both in practice and theory. Since high school, I have tutored others in Spanish, government, music and sports. I come from a family of teachers and, like my parents, I enjoy helping others and reaching the end goal of aiding a student in attaining their own aspirations both long and short term. I understand the di

I love to teach. I feel a tremendous amount of satisfaction when I help a student understand important concepts, build confidence, reach academic goals, and learn to enjoy the process of learning. I believe that there are three key qualities to being a great teacher. First, great teachers help make students feel comfortable and confident so that learning can take place. In short, great teachers make learning fun. Second, a great teacher is an expert in explaining complex concepts and skills in a way that students can fully understand them. Third, a great teacher is a strong motivator and encourager. I believe that I possess these three important qualities, and I use them well to help my students achieve academic success. I earned a Bachelor of Science degree from Indiana State University in the field of mathematics education, graduating with a 4.00 GPA. Since graduating, I have w

I have taught music in public education for the last 15 years. I have been involved in church music ministry for over 25 years, and currently am the church pianist in Stockton, Ca. I love working with children of all ages. Math is my second love and I almost majored in math instead of music. Math was always easy for me in school. Although I don't enjoy writing, I am very strong in written English and enjoy proofreading papers. I strive to include various learning styles when working with children. Some students learn best by listening or writing, while others need movement or tactile experiences to help in comprehension. I believe in keeping students engaged at all times, to minimize wasted time. Every child has potential. A teacher just has to know how to reach each child, and that happens when the students builds trust with the teacher.

I graduated from Brigham Young University in 1982 with a Bachelor of Science degree in Elementary and Special Education. I received my California credentials for Learning Handicapped, Multiple Subjects, and Resource Specialist in 1987, through CSU Fresno. Prior to getting married, I worked for nine years in public schools in Utah and California. Since 1991, I have worked an additional nine years in public and private schools from elementary through high school as a Resource Specialist. My eighteen years as a Resource Specialist, in addition to my piano and church teaching experiences, has given me a love for learning and an even greater love for teaching students who exhibit unique learning styles. I enjoy the challenge of creating lessons that meet an individual student's academic needs. Asessment and monitoring of specific skills in reading decoding, reading comprehension, writing
