Jazz Dancing Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Colton, CA

two years training, one year of competitive jazz dancing. I have tutored many young students throughout my life, and have been tutored myself. I do find it easier to work with younger children; however, I am capable of assisting those of high school or college age students who are struggling. I have helped young children learn how to read, write, count, and tell time on an analog clock. Though I do not have strictly professional tutoring experience (I have never been paid for my services) I know how to identify student's learning style(s) and work with them a way that they will benefit from. I believe that children and adult education is extremely important, and I can also assist those of any age who would like to learn to read and write.

I am a very one on one type of person. I want to make sure the child understands on their level of thinking, which might mean using what they use on a daily basis to explain clearer. Depending on the age of the child and what subject that needs to be taught will depend on which way I will attack the situation. Over the past 4 years, I've worked at the Colton Community services recreatioon depatrment. As an employee I've worked in Drop-In Recreation, in which I provide my assistance in helping the children do homework and tutor them as they needed. fot the past year and a half, we've started a new program called Homework help, which is to focus more on helping the students one on one with homwwork, reading, math, projects, etc. I am currently working on getting my AA in Child Devolpment to continue my drive to become a teacher.

My college studies have been in a variety of fields with the most concentration in the arts and social sciences. At the University Center for Developmental Disabilities I have gained one-on-one experience with children with autism and have learned and employed several techniques used in the Operant Conditioning model. As a Teacher Assistant, I have the responsibilities of setting goals, creating objectives for weekly sessions, and tracking and recording weekly progress. Such goals include, increasing expressive communication, decreasing specific inappropriate behaviors unique to each child, and improving academic skills such as reading, mathematics, and problem solving. Through out my work with children diagnosed with autism I have learned and implemented B.F. Skinner's Operent Conditioning model. Although punishment is in the model, my specific teaching style only includes reinforcem

As a current substitute teacher, tutor, credential student, and life long learner, I am extremely interested in the welfare and education of my students.

Before introducing my teaching style with the student, I first make a detailed observation on where they are at in the subject. I review their stong points and weaknesses. For Intance, If they have pronounciation issues or trouble understanding vocabulary, I will focus my attention to that before moving on to any new or next step. I like to review what was learned last session before starting the new session so it stays fresh in their minds. Patience is most definately a must and knowing that there is a no "one size fits all" approach allows me to be creative in my teaching style for each and every student. My background includes diverse education and experiences from military training,pharmaceuticals,to fashion,film, and entertainment. I have completed my AA degree in Fashion Design & Merchandising along with producing live shows in Los Angeles for the nightlife. I have also begun cre

I am a firm believer that everyone is capable of achieving their educational goals as long as the proper resources are provided. I am a dedicated individual that seeks different methods to assist my student in learning the material at hand. I create and modify my teaching style to fit the student's need in order to accomplish the set goal. I believe that everyone has different styles of learning and therefore it requires a sensible yet discipline tutor to accomplish this. I have tutored children and adults in the past. As a high achiever in High School, college and in the corporate world, I was constantly requested by friends and parents to assist in tutoring in various subjects, such as English and speech. As a graduate from Cal State Fullerton with a BA in Speech Communication, I was able to provide high level of assistance in teaching and understanding the material at hand. My own

I believe that an open dialogue is a teacher's most needed resource. Any child needs to feel as though he or she can express concerns or apprehensions without the fear of feeling embarrassed or stupid. I truly believe that there is no such thing as a stupid question. Teaching should, of course, relay necessary information, but it should also foster a student's drive to succeed, as well as the knowledge that any goal can be reached through perserverance. I enjoy helping students of all ages, and I look forward to what my students will inevitably teach me. I am a California State University, Los Angeles graduate, holding a BA in English, with a specific focus on clasroom teaching. Throughout high school and college, I was driven to assist my peers, using my knowledge to ensure that they understood the subject matter and would succeed in any academic endeavors.

My education experience has led me to have a passion to learn. I always had the pleasure to tutor my peers throughout my school years. I love helping and watching people get to the moment where everything is becomes clear. I have graduated with a BS in Business Administration, majoring in Finance. Math has always come natural to me. I was able to take my natural talent and pursue advanced math courses in college while studying Engineering for two years. In addition to my love of math, my love of helping people has led me to pursue my MS in Counseling. In this field I can specialize working with children and gain better understanding of individual's thought processes. The last eight years, I have tutored in Math, Psychology, and English. My teaching style and influence on children is from a positive nature. I always encourage the individual to feel comfortable to make mistakes. I believe

Having been reading since I was two it was a natural progression of events that, despite my dyslexia, I completed my BA in English Literature and thereby am intimately acquainted with all of the generas, nuances, and demands that true literacy requires. I started off college as a Micro-biology major so I have spent a good amount of time buried in the lab as well as Chaucer and Milton. I have been tutoring and helping my peers and their children for many years in science, art, history, literature and music. I am a huge advocate for the theory of multiple intelligences. I believe every child is capable, its just a matter of figuring out how they process information. Academic success is just one measure of growth, but whole learning is what I consider true success and I believe when the whole child is taught that academic success will invariably follow.

I believe any child has the ability to do anything in the world if they are given the opportunity and necessary skills. Many times educators falter because they have been teaching so long that they forget a student’s mindset is different. I believe that a great educator will listen to the needs and strengths of the student directly from the student to help detect what is preventing the student from completely mastering a particular skill. This is why I incorporate all learning styles into my teaching not for the purpose of being redundant but to allocate the best learning style and expose the student to other undiscovered learning styles. My goal is to provide the best education experience for our future leaders. Coming from a family of educators has greatly influenced my admiration and passion in education. This passion has in-turn helped me earn my bachelor in Criminal Justice and now
