I have always had a deep passion for teaching others. Knowledge is power. It means a better job, a better understanding of the world we live in and it makes for better relationships. My desire is to empower people to help bring out the best in them. I am patient, understanding, and am able to teach students in a simplified way. Nothing is more rewarding than when my students eyes light up when they grasp deep concepts, especially when it is something they have struggled with for years. That is very rewarding to both student and teacher. I am proud to say that I was able to graduate "Summa Cum Laude" with a grade point average of 4.0 during my Masters and Doctorate college years and "Magna Cum Laude" during my bachelor year. I have gained a greater understanding of English,along with how to write essays, outlines, and how to do an extensive amount of research. Over the last 20 years, I ha

I have spent all of my career in Information Technology, in positions from programmer to Vice President. In most of my projects, I've mentored and tutored others in many different areas. I have outstanding written and verbal communications skills. I've taught in Jr/Sr high schools (math) and also in Community Colleges: computer skills, economics and math. I've also delivered formal systems-oriented classes to employees and customers and volunteered in Junior Achievement programs and day care centers. I enjoy teaching and have excellent skills. I enjoy mentoring others and giving them the benefit of my knowledge and skills. I have always had a "thirst" for knowledge and enjoy sharing with others. I believe that learning is best accomplished through gaining an ability to analyze a problem logically and following a proscribed methodology to solving problems. I received a very basic

I believe that a big part of teaching is listening and observing. Not every student learns the same way, so it is important to be patient and try to understand what works best for the student. In many cases, examples are helpful in learning. Examples that are tailored to a specific student (e.g. drawing correlations to cooking for measurements, or sports for averages) can be a great basis for understanding concepts. I have done classroom teaching and one-on-one teaching. I prefer the one-on-one approach because it is so effective, and so satisfying for myself and the student when progress is made. My first tutoring experience was in high school, assisting other students in Algebra. I have earned two bachelor degrees, a BS in Business Administration and a BS in Computer Science. After college I worked at an insurance company as an IT Training Advisor. My primary responsibility was

My vision and goal in working in education is to help students who are struggling and in need of help. These students can so often be overlooked or dismissed as failures, but I believe that all students have the capability to reach their goals. I strive to create a relationship with the student in which the tutoring creates an environment conducive to a common goal that we can share that will guide us to improving the student's life. Educating students and helping them succeed has been a passion of mine for ten years now, both in the classroom and in one-on-one situations. I began tutoring in high school as a volunteer with the California Scholarship Federation, and I continued through college and beyond with various companies in California. I have tutored and taught elementary, junior high, and high school students Enlish and Math. I completed high school by getting a four on the Calcul

In order to move forward in an academic subject, let’s first see where the student is in their understanding of the subject. Perhaps the student's mind is filled with a patch-work of facts and concepts that, together, simply do not make sense. In such a case, the leap from basic memorization to higher-level thinking such as analysis and problem solving will be difficult. But rather than bore the student with things too basic, let's apply what they already know to the unknown. Like any explorer, it becomes fun & exciting to explore the subject; to use one's imagination and creativity to solve surprising problems; to build confidence and interest. Once things click, I’m happily out of a job! With my managerial and marketing experience honed with such firms as IBM, McDonnell-Douglas (now Boeing), American Express and Atlantic-Richfield, combined with my MBA, I can lead a student fr

During my education, I showed myself to be a team leader and a good tutor for those students who were struggling. Since I was a child, I have always had a natural tendency to teach and nurture those around me. I am, and have always been, an extremely detailed, patient person. I enjoy help

As an Electrical Engineer graduate, I am very dedicated and devoted towards education. I earned my degree, BS in Electrical Engineering, which enabled me to gain strong areas in math, such as algebra, pre-calculus, and calculus. I also have a lot of experience in preparing lab reports, since throughout my college career I prepared lab reports for all my engineering courses. I am currently a tutor for both Math and English subjects. I have a passion tutoring students of all levels. There are many different tutoring approaches, but with my experience I am able to make a student clearly understand the concepts. I can deliver complete student satisfaction that will improve their grades greatly and make them feel better about themselves. I can make them believe in themselves by showing them that they can also be successful students. My main goal is to make them feel proud, better students, an

I am a very encouraging and positive teacher. Growing up with seven siblings, I have learned that patience is the best virtue and children need a stress-free enviroment. I love to use analogies and stories to motivate children to enjoy the sessions. I always felt that it was my mission not to be the "typical" tutor; I want children to look forward learning. As a graduate from one of the most prestigious schools in the world, I have the training and experience to motivate and improve a child's ability to learn. I have been a music teacher for four years, working with children of all ages; I am currently working with a special needs child to play the piano. In addition to music, I have written many essays and was encouraged to be an english teach by one of my professors at Cal-state Fullerton.

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.

I love tutoring to all my students because It is such a pleasure to see them solving a problem and enjoying their accomplishments. I believe everybody will come to enjoy math as I do, once they realize how much fun it is. I have a B.S. Degree in computer engineering and minor in mathematics which enabled me to be very knowledgeable in math, physics, biology and chemistry. In addition, I have tutored math to my peer students and was employed in an elementary to tutor math to younger students. During last couple of years I have tutored many students and I was complemented on my ability to help them solve problems.
