More About This Tutor...

In the fall of 2012 I was a high school English teacher after having graduated with honors in history from UC Berkeley. I can help you with a variety of skills (test taking, reading comprehension, organization, information retention) in a variety of subjects (U.S. History, World History, Social Studies, English).
Since I have worked with all different type of students who all have unique ways of learning, I can adapt my tutoring to best fit your needs. For example, if you are more of a hands on learner we can develop special ways for you to understand and remember information.

As a design student, and throughout my life, I have held the ability to grasp new concepts in multiple subjects with very little difficulty. I have used this skill to assist classmates in better understanding difficult subjects mostly in mathematics, science, and computer applications. My bachelors of fine arts degree in interior architecture has enabled me to become proficient in subjects such as geometry, trigonometry, drafting, CAD, perspective drawing and rendering, environmental science, art history, and computer applications in PC and MAC. Within the last few years, I have tutored in mathematics, reading, CAD, sociology, and psychology. Recently, I passed the CBEST exam and obtained my Emergency 30-Day Substitute Teaching Permit.
I believe education is the most valuable gift we can pass on to our most valuable resources, which is the youth. I would like to be a factor in prov ... read more

Learning styles vary depending on learners' needs and interests.Through the years,I have always matched my teaching styles with students' learning styles.I have constantly used a variety of strategies while teaching groups,and have consistently assessed their educational needs prior to using any teaching or tutoring strategy. Students from the same age group may have common interests,but there is always a difference in their abilities and learning needs.In order to assist them,strategies and materials must be suited to their individual level.

I gained a variety of skills including, counseling, communication, discipline, motivation, teamwork, and importantly, patience. Although teaching students has its challenges, I learned that patience, flexibility, cooperation and accepting the uniqueness of each individual play a vital role. Helping children is the most important, challenging, and rewarding task in my life. Children who grow up in a caring, nurturing, educational atmosphere help them to develop the confidence, self-esteem and knowledge to become happy, successful young adults and members of the community. I firmly believe teaching our children and assisting with their development is vital to their future. I am content to motivate and encourage all children.
I possess a BA in Child, Adolescent & Family Studies. I have hands-on experience, as well as the necessary approaches to helping children. I worked with s ... read more

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.

My educational philosophy includes the belief that all students are able to learn, but they must be active participants in their own learning--they must be engaged. From my time as a reading tutor to struggling readers in middle school, I understand the importance of first assessing a student's abilities in basic literacy (phonemic awareness, letter sounds and blending, concepts of print, recall & comprehension, etc.). Obviously, my approach to readers with greater skills would be different and would include both formal and informal assessments of reading skill. It's my goal to produce strategic readers. I have a good deal of training and numerous resources to achieve this end.

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 or through repetition. I will do my best to help your child enjoy learning and achieve their full potential in academic success. Together, we can achieve anything.
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 Col ... read more

After graduating from Vanguard University of Southern California with my BA in English, I decided to enroll in the Education Program to receive my Single Subject English Teaching Credential. Teaching has always been a passion of mine. I started tutoring students in subjects such as Math, English, Science, History, and Spanish, when I was merely a Junior in High School. I began tutoring K-8 at a local private elementary school. I then became employed at my high school as a tutor. At my high school, I was given the opportunity to work with grades 9-12. I worked in an after school program for three years where I was able to plan lessons and help students with their homework. I have recently student taught at Costa Mesa High School as a 9th Grade Honors English teacher and a 12th Grade Regular English teacher.

A Little Bit About Me...

Throughout my educational experience I have been committed to academic excellence. I recently graduated summa cum laude with a BA in English. My studies gave me a versatile set of writing, research, and critical-thinking skills applicable to many areas of study within the Humanities. In the past I have had 3 years of Russian, 1 in Hebrew, as well as good deal of study in beginning level Latin. In addition to my studies in English, I also took college level Calculus, as well as courses in physics, and history electives. Work experience has given me adept knowledge in the computer skills necessary for business use. Over the years I have tutored students in writing and grammar, literature, music, economics, and various levels mathematics.

A Little Bit About Me...

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
