My comments on tutoring Geography : Based first and foremost on my studies of geography in academia, I have also become an expert in geography both in modern times and in the geography and national border-lines of the past due to my extensive and long travels through America, Central, Latin & South America, Europe, the Middle East, and Asia, learning the histories of each region as I passed through. The only place I have yet to visit is Africa.

Extremely Interactive and Student-Specific Methods Tailored to each Student's Needs & Goals
I consider myself to be a uniquely seasoned, qualified, and experienced tutor who can adapt to any situation and to any student in order to benefit their education and learning experience. Due to my ability to teach and tutor children and adults of all ages, (in addition to my own near-perfect scores on the SAT & ACT) I was one of the first Instructors hired by PrepExpert, a national company that specializes in preparing students for the SAT, ACT, AP, other exams, and simply for help in regular classes at all levels. This company is so successful and growing so fast because of the unparalleled improvements among students that it recently appeared on ABC's show "Shark Tank," during which Mark Cuban was impressed enough to buy a substantial stake in the company and is a current partner.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have a Ph.D. in Political Science/ International Relations from the University of Washington in Seattle (1995). Plus I have extensive experience teaching both at the high school and university level. This experience includes institutions in Haiti, Mexico and the United States. I am 100% fluent in Spanish and was born in Panama (also a US citizen). After teaching on military bases in Japan and South Korea on and off for the past five years, I need to be in the United States for family reasons, in Nevada. Until I decide what to do next, I need to keep working. Recommendations available from all employers over the past decade.
I keep it interesting, mixing activities.

More About This Tutor...

From having been in the education field for over 10 years, I have come to learn that my teaching style is very much dependent on the learning style of the individual. Introducing young children to language requires a very different set of skills and expectations that teaching freshmen composition at the college level. I think the most important aspect of a teaching style is the ability to judge and modify instruction so that it is suited for the learner, and I always intend to teach the student, rather than just teach the material.
As an English teacher, I have had the opportunities to work with many different ages and levels of students. From foreign kindergarten students through degree seeking college students and varying levels in between, I have learned many different skills to help me approach each learner with the tools that make learning easy and enjoyable. I have profe ... read more

My teaching style is very unique. I believe that in order for a student to learn and retain information, they must be able to make a connection between the material that they are learning and their own life. Therefore I always ensure that I make real life connections when teaching skills. I show students how the material relates to their own lives and how it will be useful to them in the future. I also believe in allowing students to use their own critical thinking skills in order to solve problems. That means, that instead of teaching a student basic facts and details, I teach students how to think for themselves. I also enjoy using manipulatives and realia during instruction. I believe that integrating books, articles and artifacts ensures that students are able to grasp a concept.
I have taught elementary school for a total of seven years. One of those years I spent as a ... read more

More About This Tutor...

As an education student, I saw many opportunities in that field. I also saw the diversity of learners, and the need for a diversity in the way education is approached. I began to challenge myself by removing limitations like language, and searching for alternative techniques to teaching students of different cultural, socioeconomic, religious and behavioral backgrounds. Through my efforts, I found that to teach is to learn twice over, and that teaching can be beneficial for the student as well as the educator. I fell in love with education, and will never look back!
Throughout my career as a student, I have always prided myself on the ability to help others learn. When I was a high school student, I was the one other students would come to with questions, and I always gave an answer with confidence. Then I got to college and began to study Biology. I was so amazed at the broad spec ... read more

I have been given the opportunity to teach elementary education for a total of 4 years. During this time I have taught 1st grade and 5th grade. In addition, I also have 4 years experience in special education-Resource.
I enjoy working with children and being actively involved as they progress in their journey of learning. I believe that all children have the ability to learn. As a teacher, it is my duty to identify the particular learning style each student uses to learn and succeed. I believe that if a child is given a patient teacher, an environment that encourages learning, and is recognized when they succeed, any child can succeed and learn what is needed to become our future leaders.

I am very passionate when teaching students and I strive hard to ensure that every student grasps the material. I implore real-world examples to provide students with background knowledge concerning the subject area. I am patient, flexible, a good listener, and easy to communicate with.

A Little Bit About Me...

Excellence in education and curiosity in the natural world, instilled in me since elementary school, has driven me to be an “A” student through my college education. The curriculums in premedical studies, zoology, and biological sciences, provided me the knowledge to comfortably teach and discuss math and science to all levels of pre-secondary students, while working as a temporary/substitute science/math teacher, and to college undergraduate students, during assignment as a graduate teaching assistant. A summer job as an instructor of nutrition, introduced me to teaching older adults. Tenure as a Chemist for 30 years permitted me to train and mentor new employees, coworkers, and student interns.
I enjoy sharing my knowledge with others, especially children to whom I provide exposure and enthusiasm of learning and understanding, so that they not only understand what they need to ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Teaching has been the most rewarding career that I could have ever imagined. I love working with students and helping them reach their full potential.I believe that all students can learn, however, not all by standard or conventional methods. I teach to a diverse population and have developed teaching strategies and interventions to reach virtually every student I have taught or tutored. I believe in open lines of communication with students, as well as, mutual trust and respect. I value student's input as to academic difficulty and potential goals. We are a team working towards student academic success.
I have worked with students for over 15 years, in general education and special education. I have tutored students after school in any/all elementary subject areas. My strengths are literacy based subjects, and I am weaker in math. I am organized, determined, patient, understanding ... read more

I have been teaching for 15 years. If children are taught to read the right way they will not have problems later on. Difficulties should be caught early in order to help students overcome them. I have been tutoring for two years.
I believe that each child learns in his or her own way and you, as a teacher, must provide opportunities for all students to learn. I believe teachers must be flexible and willing to change plans to accomodate the needs and interests of the class. I believe that children need to be given a good foundation especially in reading. Reading is the most important skill because without reading students will have difficulty in all other subjects.

A Little Bit About Me...

Throughout my experience as a teacher, I learned that all students are able to learn. It has been a tremendous experience to learn that I can contribute something useful and meaningful to my learners. I know that when I started teaching and when I was enrolled in the UH teacher education program, I knew that teaching was a passion. Nothing is more rewarding then to see someone accomplish and reach their destiny as planned. In addition to working with students, I also gained a lot of useful strategies working with student teachers. I learned that being a mentor meant more than just being teachers in the room. For instance, in everything that is done in the classroom, students shall be able to see that we teachers are modeling effective skills in working cooperatively with each other.
My main focus in teaching is to teach in a constructivist approach. I always believe that students ... read more
