A Little Bit About Me...

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. ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I am a graduate of UC San Diego earning a BS in Structural Engineering. I have a strong grasp of the math and science fields, and how concepts from each discipline overlap and interconnect. In addition to my own academic pursuits I have tutored and worked in the classroom environment with students ranging from grades 1-6.
I am a firm believer that each and every student has equal ability to succeed in their academic pursuits. It is up to the teacher to provide the tools and environment that enables the student to flourish. Not only does a good teacher educate the child, but they also motivate the student to further pursue academic achievements. I believe in giving students the tools needed to solve current and future problems, not just a quick solution.

More About This Tutor...

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. ... read more

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.
My experience in the field of education began with my volunteer work during ... read more

To provide students with an equal opportunity of learning, one must first know about every student’s individual needs. It is important to learn about student's language abilities, cultural background, social development, emotional development, health considerations, and interests/ aspirations; in order to properly meet the needs of students. By knowing this information one will be able to use proper strategies and activities that will help student over achieve their weaknesses. It is also important to become familiar with students learning style because all students learn differently.Visual learners shoudl be given visuals,auditory learners need direct instruction, and kinesthetic learners need manipulatives.

I have a passion for learning, and a love of all types of diversity. I thrive in one-on-one and small group scenarios where I can identify the learning styles and strengths of each child, and cater to their individuality. When I taught swimming one summer at the YMCA, I quickly became the favored instructor for kids aged 3-8, especially those in the extremes: fearful and fearless. The fearful children needed to be coaxed into confidence so that they could feel safe and proud to succeed at their own pace, while the fearless children needed firm but loving boundaries to ground them in safety and discipline so that they could be freed up to push themselves to their full potential.
For more than 20 years I have been an educator and advocate for children and families in multiple settings. I have eight years of volunteer and paid classroom experience with K-12, teaching and tutoring in a ... read more

I have volunteered English as a Second Language tutoring services through the Santa Barbara Public Library for over two years. My students have come from Mexico, Latvia, and Mongolia. In addition, my most recent paid jobs as a Market Research Analyst/Associate Analyst included Editing/Quality Control duties, focusing on proper grammar, style, and content. I have a passion for the proper use of the English language, both spoken and written, and would relish an opportunity to share that passion with students.
Each student is unique and needs to be approached in a unique teaching fashion. I try hard to listen to students and to learn what their goals and needs are. I then tailor the teaching approach to meet those goals and needs, fully believing that if students sense they are being listened to they will also feel motivated to learn. I am patient, able to laugh and feel comfortable a ... read more
