It's harder than it looks.

I have 5 years experience teaching elementary and middle school students with 1 year of teaching a special needs student with Autism. Additionally, I have been a university tutor in Chemistry, Physics, and Mathematics employed by UC Santa Cruz for the last two years where I tutored and led large group sessions targeted toward understanding the material, key study skills, and development of study groups.

I'll Teach your Student to Teach Him or Herself

I have worked as a tutor for 10 years in all subjects, especially focusing on ESL learners. Recently, I have worked in an ESL school (FLS International) with university age students seeking to matriculate into American Universities. Before that, I worked in South Korea teaching English. While employed at these schools, I also work part-time as a tutor- mostly for middle and high school age students. Many of my students struggle with time management, and this is a main focus in my tutoring sessions.
I hate lecturing! I do! This is why my tutoring style is very interactive. I don't like talking AT a person, I prefer to have a conversation. My goal as a tutor is to make subjects interesting, and also to make sure they stick- so you can do well on exams. I also teach study skills in every session, so ideally you won't have to rely on me forever. I try to give students tools th ... read more

My experience as a tutor has been fulfilling. I started as an educator for children in grades k through 12, developing and implementing education plans revolving around well-being, art and environment. From that I became a tutor in the natural sciences, as well as study and organizational skills.
I believe in positive reinforcement and constructive criticism. Many of the children and adults I have worked with have found some inspiration through my way of teaching, which is a very wonderful compliment.

More About This Tutor...

I have always been very fond of learning; I received a BS from California State University Monterey Bay and a MA from Monterey Institute of International Studies. Both degrees focused on environmental policy and Spanish. I tutored writing with an emphasis on science and policy for 2 years with the CSUMB peer tutoring program and volunteered with Monterey County Reads as a reading assistant for children K-3 during my undergrad and graduate education. I volunteered abroad as an English teacher in rural Ecuador in the summer of 2009, graduated from MIIS in 2010, and moved back to Ecuador to teach English. I have tutored English reading, writing, and ESL for 3 years, but I also have a strong background in the sciences and Spanish language.
As a tutor I feel it is my job to provide students with the extra help they need in reaching their educational outside of the classroom. I have alwa ... read more

More About This Tutor...

Being a biology graduate from the UC system and a children’s counselor for the last seven years has equipped me with extensive knowledge and teaching skills. I hold a B.S. in Ecology and Evolutionary Biology, which encompasses many other scientific disciplines and mathematical skills. I’ve also learned many grammar and writing techniques from frequent research reports and laboratory essays. After working with children and teens for many years, I have gained invaluable experience in teaching and mentoring for all grades.
I love working with children and teens. I am very sociable and students generally find me easy going and understanding. Every child has the capacity to improve and learn over time; therefore I am very patient and teach through direct practice and repetition. Given helpful techniques and proper guidance, I’ve seen children improve drastically in their schoolwork. I a ... read more

I am firm, fair, and fun. I believe in building upon a student’s strengths and strengthening their weaknesses. I like to teach to the individual student’s learning style. I achieve this by using differentiated instruction, concentrating on the individual’s favorable learning style. I may incorporate manipulatives, music, motion, or visual aids. I believe the student should be active in the learning process and enjoy being engaged with the material to become proud of his/her work and take ownership of the learned material.
I began teaching in a second grade classroom. After receiving my Master’s Degree in Special Education, I taught at an inner city shelter facility. Shortly thereafter, I taught online for a cyber charter school and tutored at Huntington Learning Center. I have recently taught math at the junior high school level (for 5 years), while coaching softball and b ... read more

Over my years of experience providing supplemental instruction to a diverse range of students, I have found that I possess a breadth of knowledge and interpersonal skill-sets that make me an effective teacher. I teach from the understanding that every student has a unique educational experience and that there is no one way to effectively get your point across. Utilizing patience, compassion, as well as a heightened sense of cultural literacy, I am able to help students grasp lessons and objectives that had been previously intangible. I believe that educators hold a great responsibility to their students, and take pride in the accomplishments realized by my students.
Throughout the course of my education, I have had the opportunity to work with many great instructors and professors; learning the qualities and characteristics of what comprises an effective teacher. I currently posses ... read more

Due to my extensive experience in tutoring students of all ages, I am very good at tailoring my teaching toward the specific student's needs. I am very patient, communicate concepts in an easy to understand manner, and work hard to help the student understand the material. While tutoring math & physics, I generally explain the material first, and then work through a few example problems with the student. I then have the student solve a few problems on their own. I try to make sure that the student understands the material by asking them questions to engage them in the learning process. I am very supportive and know that a little encouragement can go a long way.
I have been tutoring since high school & I absolutely love it. In 12th grade, I tutored fellow students grades 9-12 at my high school's tutorial center in various math, science, & spanish classes. Every Sunday, I taught my n ... read more

I especially enjoy building the self confidence of students that have failed in an area. I believe their attitude about themselves plays a huge role in their ability to learn. I also try to create a firm foundation of basics so that they are able to easily build on that.
I taught a 5th grade for half a year in Missouri directly after graduating from college in January. I then taught a 5th/6th combination grade for one year when I moved to Colorado. After my marriage, I did substitute teaching for about 3 years. My most recent teaching experience was eight months of substitute teaching for K-8th grade in 2007. I have periodically tutored over the years in all subjects for students in elementary school.

I have always wanted to do something to make a difference for children. That commitment has influenced my teaching style. I am willing to help students beyond the call of duty by helping them individually and taking the extra time if need be to help them. I believe in their greatness and work to help them believe in themselves and their abilities. I am goal-oriented, focused, empathetic, and encouraging. I motivate students to want to work and want to excel through care, encouragement, praise, and having them believe in themselves.
As a child I have always wanted to do something to help children. This is evidenced in my volunteer work with children, getting a bachelor's degree in child/human development, getting a master's degree in elementary education, and teaching for 17 years. I have also tutored students individually as I wanted them to excel. People have referred me to tut ... read more

I have earned two master degrees, MS in Chemistry (with focus in Organic Chemistry) and M.Tech. in Chemical Analysis and control. This has gained me an understanding in many areas of math, chemistry and biology. In addition, I have MBA degree from San Jose State University which has polished my skills in computers, data analysis and analytical thinking.

I love working with children and I believe in high level of excellence in education. I believe all children can do well in studies, but they need different methods of learning. Some children need more visual methods; some need more practice and some need more hands-on experience to understand the subject better. My goal is to give them confid ... read more
