A Little Bit About Me...

As a Liberal Studies major pursuing a multi-subject credential, I seek jobs where I can apply the skills I have learned and furthermore, gain experience that will help me as a future teacher. I have a number of experiences working with children and their parents. At Cal Poly and CSUB, I have had the opportunity to work directly with students in various elementary schools and activities. Furthermore, I have tutored for after school programs, and privately for two families with children in Grades K-9. My dedication and organization help me perform to the best of my ability and lead students to success. I find it of the utmost importance to create a safe and effective learning environment. I have learned to work with a diverse group of students and how to address individual needs, ethically and confidentially. However, I am a strong believer that none of these skills would be valuable ... read more

Let's work together as a team to understand new ideas!

"Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember. Involve me and I learn." -Benjamin Franklin I believe teaching is a team effort between the student and teacher. When I teach I want my student to feel comfortable discussing concepts with me and opening up about the material at hand. We will navigate new ideas together and overcome any barriers in the way! My job is to show my students what they are capable of and how fun learning can really be! I believe optimism and encouragement go a long way when teaching students new concepts. I also fully believe that every student has what it takes to succeed and overcome and challenging concepts. We just have to figure that out together!

More About This Tutor...

I am a graduate with a major in History and a minor in Economics. I graduated with honors and understand the importance of an education. I have received certificates in communication and have used these skills in teaching youth for the past 6 years. I have also tutored in math while attending Junior College and received high grades in all math classes that I have taken. As a History major, I have written many research papers that has taught me grammatical skills.
Like anything in education, repetition allows for a more solid understanding and a better grasp to any curriculum. While attending college, I devoted a lot of my time perfecting both my study habits and study skills. I enjoy teaching children and youth not only specific subjects, but also how to build on their own studying habits and skills. I understand that many children learn in different ways, whether it be hands on o ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I believe in using the differentiated approach to teaching--based upon the seven intelligences. I plan for all lessons being taught, and state the objectives on the board for each lesson. I present the lesson, allowing the students to interact and respond by activating prior knowledge, discussing points and inviting them to ask questions. I like to interject related activities at 20-30 minute intervals to keep their interest up. I also like to provide centering and closing activities.
I taught in private schools in California for 15 years ( 1980-1994). I started as a teacher, then became a Media Specialist, then a Vice Principal and finally a principal. I moved to Indiana in 1994, where I taught in public school for 3 years. We moved back to California in 2000. Since that time I have served as a Library Media Specialist and Reading Teacher. Presently I teach reading fundamentals t ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have taught grade three for four years. I have taught fifth grade for five years. I have worked as a special education teacher in a moderate-to-severe special day class for two years. I have substitute taught for two years in grades k-12. I am currently an adjunct ESL teacher for a junior college and have taught pre-level I for two years and levels I and II for two years. I have home schooled students at the high school level for two years. I have tutored students in grades 2-8 for five years.
I believe in motivating children to be self learners through independent discovery. I particularly enjoy watching an apathetic student become excited when he/she has grasped a concept that was frustrating for him/her. I am a firm believer in children becoming responsible for their own learning. This is achieved when the teacher is able to teach and the child is able to learn. I fe ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I don't think there is a better feeling then to see a student be proud they were able master something they thought impossible. If I had to say what method I used to teach students, I would have to say that every student is different, and that what works for one may not work for the other. I would say my approach would be to first understand what may be causing them to struggle, then working from there to teach them to be confident in their ability, and providing the appropriate tools needed to succeed.
I started in school system in 1999..I became a mentor working with at risk students I wanted to help students who lacked confidence, had low academic test scores, and lower level learners.I worked in Special Ed. for 5 yrs as teachers aide grades 6th, 7th, and 8th.I worked in the after school program teaching 4th and 5th grade combo.

Through my education at UCLA, I developed a solid foundation in math and science, while completing my BS in Bioengineering. Additionally, I have well developed communication and grammar skills for an engineer due to several extracurricular activities, which required me to write time-sensitive documentation and reports. My tutoring experience comes from 2 years of volunteer work I did at Marina Del Rey Middle School.
My dominant teaching style is connecting with students on a personal level. During my time as a mentor at Marina Del Rey, I enjoyed developing a relationship with my mentee inside and outside of the classroom, and I truly believe this helped him excel. I like to take a firm, but fun approach to tutoring, and I always challenge my students to try their hardest to complete a problem and not automatically defer to receiving help from the tutor. Patience and student em ... read more

I started teaching Sunday School when I was in Junior High. I taught a little boy in my class how to read and it was the most rewarding experience I have ever encountered. As aforementioned, throughout high school, I began tutoring students in Math, English, Spanish, Science, and History. I tutored one 6th grade student who was ADHD. He had several tutors before me, but none had the patience to work with him. I started tutoring him and fell in love with this particular child. It was hard at first because everything distracted him, but I tried different approaches until he finally began to understand the material. I created a safe environment, which is the framework for teaching. I respected this student, and in return, he respected me. We would take little breaks between each assignment, which helped him return refreshed. He was interested in learning because I used specific ex ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I hold a Bachelor's Degree in Chemisty with a minor in statistics. As an undergraduate, I tutored middle-schoolers in science and math as a volunteer at a local school. I was recently a substitute teacher, teaching all ages and in areas such as the biological sciences, algebra, calculus and psychology. I currently tutor a college student in mathemtics.
I first discovered my love for teaching in high school. I excelled in many areas and helped my fellow students learn. As I furthered my education, my passion for teaching grew and my style changed. I have molded my favorite, and most effective, professor's techniques into my own hybrid. I use humor and compassion to develop the student's understanding. I try to teach to the student and not at them. I teach study habits that will help them learn more effectively on their own.

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.
