I seek to bring understanding to and appreciation for math.

Naturally, I aim to bring understanding to the problems/topics at hand. I also make sure to "fill-in-the-blanks" and bring understanding to any lacking pre-requisite knowledge.
I have been tutoring for over 5 years, both privately and with businesses. In regards to business, I have tutored at Glendora Learning Center (Math and Spanish tutor), the Azusa Pacific University Math Center (Math tutor), and the APU Learning Enrichment Center (Math and Spanish tutor). In regards to math, I am in progress of getting a bachelor's degree in mathematics. In regards to Spanish, I lived in Ecuador on two different occasions with a Spanish-speaking family.

My comments on tutoring Algebra : Algebra is my strongest subject in math, and I can help students in Algebra 1 exceptionally well. I took Algebra 1 back in 8th grade, and ever since then have been using the basic concepts taught in Algebra 1 in varying fields of math. Algebra is also my favorite subject in math and I enjoy helping my peers in Algebra more than any other subject.

When teaching a student, i try to help them understand the concept of the lesson before trying to explain the procedure. Once i have explained the concept to them, I show them how to work out the problem. Once I have walked them through a few problems, I let them try to do a couple on their own, until they get stuck. When they get stuck I try to reinforce the concept, while not actually helping the student work out the problem, unless it is neccesarry.
I am a recent graduate of Rosamond High School. During my time there I took math all the way up to AP Calculus. I took the AP test, and am awaiting the results. I have a refined mathematical aptitude, and strong people skills. I may haven never tutored professionally, but I have helped many of my peers understands challenging mathematical concepts. Whenever someone was stumped they would come to me for help. Many of my peers tell me ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

My tutoring experience isn't really too official. I mostly just help people with College Algebra around the dorms. I am pretty good with teaching and helping with math, and could probably do it at a High School level. Not actually having a BS probably will just limit me to high school tutoring. With the people skills I have developed working as an Resident Assistant I know I can be effective in helping high school students in math, biology, french, and chemistry.
I really like to help people in general, that's the reason why I became a Resident Assistant. As a Resident Assistant I have aided many students with problems they may have in their first year of college, including tutoring them in subjects i am proficient in. I like to see people grow and learn over which is achieved by aiding a person in discovering and cultivating various talents.

I believe there are many different styles of learning. It is my job to find out which styles your student uses to learn and implement teaching methods that cater to those styles. This creates an environment where your student will feel successful in his or her learning. I am all for whatever it takes to make your child the most successful and satisfied learning that he or she is destined to be. Along with this belief, my mannerisms are patient and understanding so that your child will not experience a negative environment in their learning process.

My desire to teach stems from my hopeful view of youth. During the past seven years I have been successful in promoting access to higher education to youth of diverse backgrounds by organizing educational workshops and/or working directly on school campuses. I have earned a B.A. in Communications with an emphasis in advertising and a minor in Chicano Studies, which has enabled me to gain skills in public speaking, creative writing and art. Also, I have great knowledge regarding sociology, political science and history.
As an undergrad, I excelled in the arts, history and social science courses. However, I lacked interest in math (I didn't get it) and failed college algebra two times! My goal was to graduate college and I decided to seek help. I came across the tutoring center on campus and found a tutor that changed my perception about math! In brief, my tutor was out going, patien ... read more

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

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.
As an individual who has earned a Bachelor’s degree in Business Marketing , I recently enrolled to earn my Credential and Masters in Special Education.

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.
