A Little Bit About Me...

I work through positive behavior supports, humor and style to motivate the student to understand the need to learn the core subject matter in order to proceed through high school. I am excellent at reading the needs of the student and creating lessons that are relevant, interesting and fun.
I have taught all core subjects plus art history for over 20 years using various state mandated materials and supplementals I purchased through special ed catalogs. Student outcomes were best with the supplementals due to limited attention span and high interest-low level materials. I use various methods to determine mastery- I create my own written or verbal assessments, writing assignments and have students maintain learning journals. I have a background in educational psychology which is useful in dealing with students with behavioral issues.

Flexible Tutor ready to work with you!!

Teaching Style varies depending your child’s learning style. Not a “one size” fits all idea. I adapt to them and that way can best see improvement.
I have been in the education department teaching and tutoring for over a decade now, therefore, I will work with each student and help them to the best of my ability. I enjoy seeing students improve their grades and letting me know they feel more confident with testing and homework. Children are the future pillars of society and the future of tomorrow so what they know should be reinforced today. The only way to contact me is at arr1aga@outlook.com or (424) 361-8497 please or I won't be able to read your messages and get back to you thank you!. Thank You!

My comments on tutoring Journalism : How to write subject specific articles and how to cite your work properly.

I think people learn best when they are in a supportive and exciting environment. Education should engage students on multiple levels. I emphasis critical thinking skills and multi-faceted learning rather than asking students to spit back information that they won't retain. Knowledge is power and I encourage students to think beyond their grades so that they can harness their own potential.
I have been a student for the last 10 years while working full time in the service industry. I am friendly, supportive, and positive! I have a life long love of learning that I hope to encourage in others as they reach their personal and educational goals. I attended Santiago Canyon Community College and received an Associated Arts degree in general education before I continued on to California State University Long Beach to receive a Bachelor's of Arts degree in English Literature. I am now a s ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

In that I have been tutoring consistently for the past seven years, I believe I have developed some highly effective techniques for enabling each individual student to reach his or her potential. My first mission upon initiating tutoring with a new student is to identify his or her particular personality and background. Once an understanding is developed between tutor and student, the more theoretical aspects of the student's studies can be approached. Lastly, I find it essential to engage the student in activities related to his or her studies that are genuinely interesting and relevant to the real world.
While attending the University of Chicago (2003-2007), I completed a rigorous curriculum characterized by both advanced coursework in mathematics and the social sciences. Each year leading up to graduation, I served as a mathematics tutor within the Cook County School distric ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Straight out of college, I began substitute teaching and then tutoring individuals. I specialized in English, reading skills, history, psychology, and counseling. Now, I'm a computer tutor, a technical writer on contract, and gone through countless hours on training for these skills, and am now considering a second career as a teacher for non native speakers, for career and computer coursework, and always for writing skills, particularly technical writing. I wrote a book recently called Job Shark, to help people look for jobs, and I'm always amazed at how intimidated people are by computers and technology.
Personally, I prefer hands on - lab style workshops - than endless lecturing and note taking. I like to grasp the student's maturity level and aptitude and go from there. All students need individualized attention, but it is also important to have team building skills inherent in ... read more

More About This Tutor...

At Bradley University I was an English major with a Journalism concentration. I love writing and one of the things I enjoy most is the proof reading and editing stage of writing. I can help with any kind of writing necessary from proposals, to research projects to lab reports and journalism articles. Throughout high school I tutored other students after school. In college, as an active member of Pi Beta Phi sorority, I volunteered as a tutor. I worked with both high school and college level students in English and Journalism. I have also taken many years of Spanish and was able to help students in that area as well.
I love English and the writing process and helping other students and children become more comfortable in these areas is very important to me. When I was younger I had trouble with writing and it wasn't until high school that I really began to excel in writing. With my ... read more
