Elementary Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Concord, CA

This is the most important time for children to learn. Its now or never. I am very committed to teaching elementary children and being patient with them. The importance of learning at these ages is most important because it teaches the value of progress and sensability. I am very proficient with teaching my students to understand rather than just finish the activity or problem. I pay very close attention to the learning style of my students. I make sure they are focusing and learning rather than copying my teachings. I continously tutor ages k-12, college students and international students. I have been tutoring for five years and enjoy sifting out the difficulties. Many students have trouble absorbing the material and many students read the curriculum abstractly. I help my students with processing the material easier so that we can progress efficiently.

I have worked with students in Math and Science for the past 18 years. I love to make difficult concepts come alive to the student. I like to work from concrete examples towards abstract concepts.

I have been successfully tutoring for over 10 years. I have helped students transform their grades from F's to A's. It has been a very rewarding experience, since my students get to understand the subject a lot better as well as improve their grades. I love working with students of all ages and teaching the many subjects I know. My specialties are math, science, and standardized testing. I am very patient and friendly. I am also able to explain an idea in many different ways. Many students tell me that I can explain concepts better than their teachers. Please check out my many positive reviews at https://www.wyzant.com/Tutors/Richard. I graduated with honors at UCLA with a BS in Chemical Engineering. I can definitely tailor the tutoring session to your specific needs. Please check out the extensive list of the subjects that I am certified to tutor. My ultimate goal is to provide a

I decide how best the child learns before making a full plan of how to help them. I am currently in college, attending Chabot College. I was recently in a 4 year college down in Pomona, CA for a quarter, Cal Poly Pomona, and in a couple of years I will be transferring Cal Poly SLO. I passed my high school years with A's and B's and have also been passing my university/college classes with the same. In high school, I tutored kids for free and a lot of them were in grades above me. Near the end of high school I started teaching younger kids through care.com. I absolutely love tutoring and I think it's amazing to watch a child's mind grow right in front of you.

Any subject at the elementary level, but particularly literary and language arts. I assess the student's level of mastery by listening to parents, communicating with the student (in whatever appropriate way needed) and then doing some basic testing. Once the student is assessed, I design a learning environment and activities that coincide with the student's specific strengths, while adding some elements of challenge. I tend to work in a very focused way for 10-15 minutes, and then add in tactile activities (like Bannana Grams for example) for 10 minutes or so, in order to maintain the student's attention. Children and youth who are struggling to read and write get patient assistance to learn the words correctly. My work will improve writing techniques (including essays and basic writing skills), reading comprehension, vocabulary development, and literary creativity. For younger children

Hi my name is Noor Abdullah. I am 22 years old. I am a college student. I have been tutoring elementary level students since 2007 and enjoy it very much.

I have been tutoring elementary level students since 2007. I enjoy it very much. My motto for tutoring is: the earlier in helping a child, the easier it will become. I tell students to never give up on what they want in life. You have to believe in yourself and know that you can succeed in life if you set your mind to it. Also never let anyone put you down and think that you can not do something. Each and every student can do something. Students just have to work hard and do their best. I do my tutoring at my home. I have a study room filled with books and a computer. It is a safe e
