I had no intention of teaching when I started my career in Psychology and the Analytical Chemistry industry. I continuously tried to improve my methadology to arrive at the right mix of stimulation and information to make the learning process as interesting as possible. Teaching the Physics of Xrays and chemical analysis does challenge one to keep assessing the learned content and modify as results indicate. The results of effective teaching and learning start with asking questions about the purpose of the instructions, how will the results of the learning be measured, and what is educational level of the students? I try to teach them how to learn, rather than the concepts of facts and numbers, what do the numbers mean?

Most children have had positive and negative experiences at school. I believe regardless of a child's past experiences, I have the ability to develop meaningful relationships and help students believe in themselves and see their strengths. I do this in a caring manner, but always hold children to their personal best. Throughout the years I have influenced hundreds of children and have often been referred to as their "favorite teacher."
Since 1996, I have been a successful elementary school teacher servicing students in grades K-8. Along with being a classroom teacher, I have obtained my Administrative Credential and Masters in Education with an emphasis on best practices. I have the background to assess students and develop individualized goals to meet their needs.

A Little Bit About Me...

Because each student, young or old, responds to different learning stimuli (graphical or verbal) at diffrent rates, I always try to get to know my student first. I then try to tailor my tutoring to how they respond best and retain what they've learned. I believe in repetition and using examples that a student can relate to, and then testing the student's understanding of the subject matter.
As the oldest of five children, my 15+ years of tutoring experience includes helping my siblings in their homework when we were growing up. I have also taught English for two years at a private Junior/Senior girls' high school in Kyoto, Japan; mentored the English Speaking Society for the high school students; and, more recently, trained three content editors at Intel, as well as developed training classes for HP. Although I did well in math and science during my school years (my mother wa ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I enjoy working with children. My theory of teaching is using the multiple intelligence theory. I believe that all children have the capacity to learn but in their own way. I like to incoporate different styles of learning in a lesson. I also like to incorporate hands on activities, because I believe that doing is learning.
I have been working with children from K-12 grade since 2001. I was part of the Math Academy in 2002. I have been subsituting in grades K-8 since 2009. I am fluent in the Spanish and I have experience working with migrant as well as with English Learner students. I worked with EL students for 3 years. I have also had the chance to work with special needs children.

My teaching style is very relational. I try to make learning come alive through using lots of personal examples that students can relate to. While we need to maintain a standards-based focus to help students succeed on standardized tests, there is much that can be done to help bring learning to life in a practical, hands-on way. Students can use measuring cups to learn fractions, or write in the sand to practice writing new letters, for example. They can build models of erupting volcanoes or the pyramids of Egypt. I try to encourage each student to make the most of their education and to believe in their own potential.
As a credentialed teacher, I have a lot of experience teaching, tutoring, and working with students in other capacities. Before teaching full time, I taught at Sylvan Learning center, substitute taught, and taught as a one on one aide for a child with special needs. ... read more
