As a teacher, I try to empower my students to take responsibility for their actions and for their learning results. I try to lead them and to show them how and where to find the answers, but feel they learn best when they take the final step in the learning process and discover the answers with my guidance. The results are that they acquire not only knowledge, but the ability to process information and to solve problems. I am trained in teaching individuals with differences in learning styles, as well as in teaching English learners. I speak fluent French, am proficient in Spanish and Italian, and am passionate about French/France and English literature. I share this passion with my students. I have experience teaching French and English at the high school level at a private/Catholic high school in Ventura County. I have held this full-time teaching position for 2 years. Prio

Education has always been an essential function in my life, it eventually became my passion. I achieved a bachelor's degree in Theatre Arts and a Master's degree in Mass Communications/screenwriting which I believe portrays my adoration for learning new things and excelling at things I am already interested in. I have two younger siblings in which I have tutored my whole life in multiple subjects and it has been rewarding in ways I cannot describe. In my last year of Graduate school, I was a teacher's assistant for the head professor of screenwriting for the bachelor's program. Most of my expertise is in the Arts but I can also accomodate Elementary, Junior High and High School subjects (English, Literature, and Language Arts, mostly). My teaching style consists of consistency, understanding, consideration, connection and positive acknowledgement. All children need consistency to he

I am young, patient, considerate and easy going. I have worked with a variety of students that were able to advance their education to the college level with my help. My goal is to provide the best education possible by teaching through discovery. As a California State University graduate, I was driven to achieve a high level of excellence in education. I have earned two bachelor of science degrees, BS in Biology and BS in Marine Biology, which has enabled me to gain an understanding in many areas of math and science. In addition, I have learned extensive grammatical skills due to writing laboratory reports, essays and research papers. During the past four years I have tutored students in English and mathematics.

When learning is a positive, enjoyable, and rewarding experience for children, they learn material much more easily and they retain it much longer than they do when it's not. I make learning a rewarding experience for my students by genuinely acknowledging their effort and their progress; I make it enjoyable by often adding humor to my tutoring and by making it a game as well as a goal to be achieved; and I make learning a positive experience by affirming my students’ worth as unique human beings. Prior to becoming a tutor, I was a life coach for seven years. While I have worked with a variety of clients and have helped them achieve many different goals, my specialty has been helping people with chronic illnesses and emotional challenges such as depression and bipolar disorder heal their spirits so they can find peace and joy.

My training in rhetoric, speech, and debate has taught me the importance of speaking clearly and articulately. This means that I pay close attention to language and I try to bring out that quality in my students. Other methods that I use come from my time as a foreign language teacher. Here, repetition and practice of introduced concepts are key. It's not enough to simply pass on ideas and words, the student must engage with the material for it to become real. Even though I might teach to high standards I am a very easy going person! Having graduated with honors from a top university, the greatest asset I offer comes from my real world teaching experience. During my tenure as a substitute I have taught at all levels, from kindergarten to middle-aged adults, in all subject areas. Even as a young person I was involved with teaching others; I first began as a teacher's aid in high schoo

I enjoy teaching and working with children and feel that it is important to understand that not all students learn the same way. I feel that my college experience has taught me to discover the ways I learn and understand things. In that sense I feel that all students have the potential to succeed if they acknowledge and become aware of their appropriate manner of learning. I think that being patient, compassionate and understanding is a must, which I feel I can bring fourth as a tutor and mentor. Doing community service in high school to my college years I have always enjoyed working and helping others because of the rewarding feeling that you can make a difference in someone's life. As a graduate of Sociology I have gained a lot of knowledge about how society functions. I was interested in this area of study to understand peoples because I have always had compassion for others.

My teaching style targets the needs of the particular students I am working with. If my students are visual learners, than my job is to make sure I am providing them with the visuals and demonstrations that are helping them be successful. I believe and know that children have various learning modalities and as an educator I make it my job to accommodate those various academic and sometimes social needs. I never lower my expectations for any students, I only change the direction of my teaching in order to best suit their needs. My goal is to help students succeed, not only in terms of academics, but also socially and professionally. There is definitely a strong correlation between health and academics and if a child is feels healthy mentally, physically and emotionally, than they are likely to be successful.

As a University of South Florida college of education graduate I have a wealth of experience with teaching both in the classroom and on a one to one basis. I have successfully tutored students in english, reading comprehension, science and social sciences. During my internship I taught all manner of history classes including AP world history and Psychology. In addition I have tutored for 5 years at all age and skill levels. My teaching style is to show students how to make themselves successful. By motivating my students to do their best every time I can help them exceed expectations and thrive under any situation both academically and socially. Many students focus on what they think they cannot do. What I teach them is to highlight their strengths and improve their weaknesses. I do so with the use of clear directions, constant monitoring, and positive praise. I believe every child can l

Throughout my life I have been extremely dedicated to the education process, for both myself and others. I received my BA in 2007 with a double major in American Studies and Film. I am currently an advanced degree student studying towards a Master's in Library and Information Science. My chosen professional field and my personal experiences have made me a literacy advocate. I have been writing high level essays and research papers for the past five years; this has taught me grammatical and stylistic skills that enable me to teach Language Arts at all levels. Furthermore, I have been tutoring general and SAT level reading, writing and math for students K-12 for the last two years. Teaching and helping students grow is my passion. I work well with students of all age groups and believe that everyone has the potential to succeed. I understand that everyone learns in different ways and accom

I enjoy working with older children especially those in high school. I strongly believe that all students can suceed in the classroom as long as they have a good understanding of the materials being taught. And I make it my mission to make sure my students gain this understanding and will use any measure or teaching tool to ensure this. I am extremely patient and understanding with students and my ultimate goal is to see them suceed. As a recent college graduate, I have a dedicated work ethic and a high performance level in the classroom which will translate onto the students I work with. I have earned a Bachlor of Arts in Biology from the George Washington University and plan to attend The George Washington University School of Medicine in the future. I have taken many courses in the field of biological sciences, chemistry, and mathematics. My past experience has been in tutoring studen

I believe in an interactive approach. That is, I want my students actively involved, engaged, and participating. When a student is puzzled, I prefer to provide clues rather than just give him/her the answer. I strive to be patient and respectful at all times, but I will push my pupils in an effort to get them to exert maximum effort. I decided to pursue a teaching credential at an advanced stage in my career because I wanted to do something I really enjoyed. I had been a technical instructor for fifteen years and loved it. I have always been good in math, and a university counselor told me this was a high need area. Hence, I enrolled in a credential program. Because I have passed the requisite Csets in foundation level math, I am qualified to teach algebra and geometry at the middle or high school level. I have also tutored students ranging from third grade to high school graduat

As I graduated number seven in my class, I was always a go-getter and an overachiever, especially within my field of study. Over the past 15 years, I have managed to earn a BA in Speech, an MA in Communications and over 10 years collective teaching experience at the high school, undergraduate, and graduate levels. Presently, I teach online through a DC based company called Smarthinking.com. My area of expertise is grammar, composition, and classic literature. My goal as a teacher is to ensure that my students hone in on their individual skills and talents. In doing this, I create an atmosphere that is most conducive to learning. This is done through proper assessment and by challenging students at different levels with supplemental assignments and texts. Likewise, I typically design my classroom so that anyone walking into my room would have an enjoyable learning experience simply by vi
