UCLA English grad; experience teaching both English and Math

Mine is a creative and lively, interactive teaching style, focusing on playing off of children's interests and strengths. I make it a point to get to know the students I work with -- background, education, hobbies and lifestyle.
I majored in English Literature and Writing at UCLA, with a focus on British Pre-Reformation Classics, as well as Shakespeare's 1st and 2nd portfolios. I also won 1st Place in the university's Westwind Writing Competition, taking home top prize for Non-Fiction entry. I have experience working on the school newspaper, The Daily Bruin, and extensive journalism experience. Finally, I co-founded The Writers' Den, a school-based organization dedicated to teaching English and Writing to inner-city students (Compton, Inglewood especially).

More About This Tutor...

We are a team of experienced teachers and tutors each specializing in our own subject strengths. We provide excellent customer service, possibly immediate or same day for homework help or project completion. Online tutoring is also available with a shared online whiteboard for step-by-step problem solving. We strive to get to the root of the problem be it a test-taking challenge or a problem with foundational concepts. Not very fond of your teacher? Unfortunately, this is often the case. We follow your own pace of learning to achieve results. We love the moment when a student finally understands a topic and starts building self-confidence. We can then use this to change the way a student thinks about a subject resulting in continual improvement and achievement.

Everyone is a genius when given the right tools

I have been working with students as a private tutor for over seven years, and have become addicted! There are a million ways to explain a problem and a million different points of views to understand it. I have an enormous amount of patience when explaining solutions and comprehending a student’s true understanding. Hands-on learning is my philosophy as I believe that studying should be done through creation. I look forward to sharing my knowledge with those who are in need of my assistance!

My comments on tutoring Literature : My first degree was in English and History.

I have lectured in universities around the world from Harvard and MIT to University of Delhi and IIT. I studied Philosophy, Politics and Economics at Oxford on the Radhakrishnan British Chevening Scholarship. I qualified as a lawyer in London and worked for a firm that represents the Queen and the Bank of England. In the US, I did an MBA from the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania. Currently, I teach a class on Political Economy at the University of California, Berkeley.
I am Socratic and like to make students think. My education is a classical Old World one and I focus on drilling down to assumptions.

In January of 2012, I gained teaching experience as a part-time English instructor for Korean exchange students (ages ranging from 13 to 17 years old). My responsibility for this job was to provide the students with appropriate exercises and assignments to assist them in improving their English reading skills. I also gave lessons in vocabulary and assignments to help them better understand the proper usage of the vocabulary words. These assignments also served to teach the students about American culture and traditions. In March of 2013, I received my MA in English from CSU, Bakersfield. I also published my first thesis. From May of 2013 to September of 2013, I gained some experience working with children (ages ranging from 6 to 22) with Autism and like disorders as an instructional aide.

I have worked with the LAUSD district, at Granada Hills Elementary School, as an Instructional AID. This position required me to work with students hands on, either in groups or one-on-one. I helped students who were either falling behind on subjects or were having trouble finishing assignments. I also worked with groups of students helping them improve writing composition or comprehension skills. I also had students who were new to the country,with little English. I sat down with them an hour each day during school, working to improve their reading and writing skills. I have also work as an ELA tutor with NCLB Learning With Laptops. This is a program that works with LAUSD, providing in-home tutoring for students who are low-income and need extra help outside of school. We use tablets to do activities and practice various skills.

I am an Adjunct English Professor. I have taught a variety of English courses. I believe that I can help anyone who views his/her role as a student as a collaboration with me; I can teach, but the student must be willing to work as well. This is a reciprocal relationship. I can honestly say that I love my job!!
I am friendly, enthusiastic, and nurturing. Students respond to encouragement and respect.
