Latin Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Corona, CA

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 provides fuel as I strive to earn my Juris Doctor. My life long journey in education has sharpened my communication, writing and teaching skills. Furthermore, my exposure to a variety of teaching methods, including my fluency in Spanish, gives me the opportunity to communicate with my students in distinct ways and ensuring me it is tailored to their individual learning style. 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 s

Earning my BA degree and Teaching Credential from SDSU, I also have units equivalent to a Master's in curriculum development and health information. Recognized as an outstanding and dedicated teacher by parents and students, I have successfully taught primary, upper grades and junior high. In addition, I instructed high school students in preparation for the SAT test in reading comprehension, vocabulary development, and all areas of language arts. I set up and directed an after-school tutoring program for K-7th grades to help students needing help with organizational and study skill, test-taking techniques and appropriate academic support. Success was reflected in higher test scores, improved grades and increased self-confidence. Teaching in an inspiring and positive teaching style, I have special talent to explain and to clarify difficult concepts in a variety of ways that effectively "

As a Literacy Professional, I have a decade of experience teaching adults to read. My specialty was in showing volunteer tutors how to teach dyslexic adults and adolescents. I was instrumental in establishing both the first Workplace ESL program in Carson and in supporting dropouts in the community. When I left the program to do research, I had satellite programs running from Lomita to Inglewood. I am a direct teacher. I look for what works and try not to use what doesn't work for too long. Especially when dealing with dyslexics, too much "teaching" has led to failure. I like nothing better than to grapple with a problem until it is resolved. This may imply that I am a more tactile learner myself, but I have seen that I am balanced on all three major learning style fronts. My students have noted that I give good, if off-beat, examples which stick in their heads. These odd-ball r

While attending the University of Chicago (2003-2007), I completed a rigorous curriculum characterized by both advanced coursework in mathematics and the social sciences. Each year leading up to graduation, I served as a mathematics tutor within the Cook County School district. I specialized in Algebra, Pre-Calculus, and Calculus. Following my return to Southern California after graduation, I accepted a position as a bilingual instructional assistant within the Saddleback Valley School district. Within this capacity, I assist students with Algebra and Calculus in both Spanish and English. Furthermore, having studied abroad extensively in Italy during college, I am proficient in both Italian and Latin as well. In that I have been tutoring consistently for the past seven years, I believe I have developed some highly effective techniques for enabling each individual student to reach hi

I am very flexible and very patient. My teaching style varies with every student, depending on his or her needs and ability. I think that every student can shine. As a tutor/teacher you can make this happen, and that is a reward in itself. World literature and foreign languages are my greatest passions. I love to read and to write. In addition, I like to tutor and teach. I have taught adult classes, but teenagers are my favorite students. Here in the United States, I have become a paraprofessional in special education.
