I have worked as an English, Math, and Science tutor at both the undergraduate and graduate level for the past 7 years.

Currently, I own my own Health Insurance Agency in Tehachapi. I am an Administrative/Management Professional with 20 years experience. I earned my Bachelor of Arts in Health Care Administration with a GPA of 3.46. My 11-year old daughter is a straight A student because I worked with her at an early age with studies that were at least 1 - 2 years beyond her current year. I knew she had the intellectual capacity to learn these, and it has paid off for her every year of school. I was a Health Aide (Teacher's Aide) at Tehachapi Unified School District for 2 years, specializing with Resource / Special Education children (Pre-K to 6 Grade). I have learned valuable experience working with credentialed teachers. I have volunteered in my child's classroom from K-6th grade as well. I assess what their difficulty is. I may back track and ensure they understand the basic foundation of the princ

I have always had a love for helping others learn, inspired especially by my three younger siblings who had learning disabilities. This, as well as my experience in high school assisting a teacher of the blind, motivated me to obtain a Special and Elementary Education BA degree in college. I have experience teaching a diverse range of students in many different situations: the classroom, a special education resource room, at public schools, at private schools, and in home schools. For the past twenty years I have been tutoring students in Kindergarten through the Eighth grade, especially in Math, Reading, Spelling, and Language Arts. We are all given different strengths and weaknesses, different talents and challenges. I enjoy assessing these in each student as well as creating and executing an individualized plan of learning, guiding the student towards academic success. I love all c

Throughout my college years I have been employed by two different after school programs for a combined amount of 6 years tutoring/teaching in public school after school programs. (Grades K-6) I also spent 2 months teaching full time 3rd and 4th grade after college prior to unfortunately being laid off due to financial losses in the school. I also tutored English in college through an Advanced English class I was placed in. I have a passion and calling for working with children. From the time I was a child, I knew this is what I was meant to do. I believe children are the hope of our country, and that every child is capable of learning and expanding their knowledge. Knowledge is power, and if a child is given the proper encouragement and motivation they can and will succeed. I consider it an amazing privilege to be an educator and make a difference in the lives of my students.

My teaching style is very goal-oriented, yet flexible enough to accomodate a variety of methods. Some students learn best from lectures, other learn from visuals while some are much better at hands-on instruction and correlations/representations. Each student has boundless potential; it is up to a knowledgeable educator to help that student unlock their potential and soar. I have had to opportunity to travel to many places in the world, and have found that no matter what the culture, children are so very similar in their thirst for knowledge. They just need a motivated and understanding educator who can relate to them on their level while encouraging them to "reach beyond their grasp!" For the past 18 years, I have held various instructor positions in both the Active and Reserve components of the Army, providing instruction in such areas as Anatomy & Physiology, Biology, Surgical Techn

Over the years I have participated in numerous activities with children. While pursuing my elementary education degree in Pennsylvania, I've worked for numerous daycares, babysat multiple children, and tutored many elementary students in my spare time in all of the fundamental subjects; including but not limited to math, science, reading, grammar, social studies, and spelling. My education at Bloomsburg University has provided me with the essential tools needed to help elementary students succeed academically. I have experience working with a diverse group of children and possess skills to accomodate any special need they may have. I love teaching and working with all children. I believe that all children have the potential to learn and I am dedicated to finding new and unique methods to help them succeed academically. I am very patient, and easy going.

I teach by guiding my students towards their goals as I believe that discovery learning is the most effective. I also believe that students learn best in a comfortable, fun and structured environment which I will provide.

Too many students these days give up too easily when their studies get a little challenging. I want to be able to show students that it's the challenge in their studies that make their courses more worth while and memorable. I am approachable, social with all ages, and able to communicate well and accordingly to respective age groups. I encourage students to be honest with their troubles in academics. I believe in providing a comfortable and positive atmosphere for students to thrive and absorb. My style includes helping students find a joy in learning and furthering their academics post high school. As a scientific researcher and future graduate student, I believe that science (Chemistry and Biology) are a pertinent are of study for students who plan to be premed, involved in healthcare, or desire to conduct innovative research. I have earned my bachelors degree in Biology, and have ear

I love one on one or small class sizes. Each child is so different in their own way and each have such a different learning style that I like to take it slow and be personal with each student. In my years of experience I have learned how to make learning fun. I love to include humor and everyday examples when I teach. Children are amazing and after all our future. As an Americorp participant during my early college years I learned of the many joys that teaching can give. I have a BS in general studies and very close to a BS in psychology, criminal justice, and English. I have taught at a college for 3 years, substituted for various school districts for 2, and I am currently finishing a full-time jr. High teaching position at Immanuel Christian School.

I love teaching! Seeing a student’s eyes light up, as they first understand a new concept, is very rewarding. I am a very patient and easy-going, yet focused. I take the time to be sure a student truly understands something before we progress. I feel that instruction needs to be tailored to the student. Every student has the potential to achieve if taught in a way that meets his or her needs. Though I am very familiar with the traditional teaching style of direct instruction, I am learning the value of a constructivist approach. A student learns so much more when concepts are relevant to them and when they do the discovering themselves. I am incorporating more discovery-based teaching methods into my skills set. As a student in a Multiple Subject teaching credential program, I have developed my passion for teaching into the skills necessary for encouraging student success. As a

I have worked as a personal tutor in the past, and have helped students with a variety of subjects from Trigonometry to Spanish. I have also worked with international students learning English. I experienced great academic success in high school (I earned very competitive scores on several AP and SAT exams), graduated as a valedictorian, and received a 4 year scholarship to attend California State University, Long Beach. In college I majored in Spanish, spent a year living and studying in Madrid, Spain, and graduated from CSULB with highest honors and distinction in my major. I have advanced proficiency in speaking, reading, and writing Spanish and am very passionate in helping others achieve the same. My tutoring style is very one-on-one and interactive.

Children are amazing artists due to the fact that they don't censor themselves creatively like most adults tend to do. I teach, instilling confidence through positivity and constructive criticism. I encourage children to experiment and discover their own style. I teach the basic fundamentals as well as the techniques of painting and let the children find their own unique style. Turning a blank page into a work of art shows that something beautiful and imaginative can be created through each individual. I believe everyone can be an artist if they put in the time and dedication. I teach children they must believe they can accomplish anything they set their mind to, which I believe to be very true. I have successfully acquired a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree with a concentration in Painting from Central Washington University. Last May in Seattle, I submitted and displayed my work at an art
