A Little Bit About Me...

I have worked nearly two decades in the educational system as a Sign Language Interpreter. I have experience with K-12, Community College, and University levels. I worked as Mentor for a K-12 school district with 13 Mentees for five years. Because of the new state law, the Mentee's goal was to become certified to continue with employment. 10 out of the 13 Mentee's succeeded in compliance with the state law.

I am kind of new to teaching. I have taught my little brother everything he knows, and I've been told I have a really good way of teaching. Younger students catch on very quickly to what it is I am teaching. If they don't catch on quick, then no problem. I'm very patient and never give up until a student understands the concept. I am very easy to get along with, so the student will have no problems with me. Altogether I am a very patient smart person eager to help new students learn; and if you want to have fun while learning, then I am the perfect tutor for you.

I have never worked as a tutor before in my life, but I have help tutor students at no charge since high school. I have been asked by students who are my younger siblings, friends, and even people that I have known for a short period of time. I like helping others to succeed in their studies with no limitations to the age of the student.

I have worked with preschoolers and children K-8. Furthermore, I have tutored in Reading Comprehension, Math, Writing Skills, and Spanish. I have worked as an Office Manager, where I used Word, Excel, Powerpoint and Data Entry programs. Tutoring children in Reading Comprehension gave me great satisfaction because most of them made great improvements, and were able to raise their grades in this subject. I also taugh phonics, vocabulary and grammar to English Learners. Moreover, I teach children ages 10-13 bible classes. I volunteer at St. Joachim Church in Madera California. I also tutored students 7-8 Reading Comprehension, Writing Skills and Math (Basic Math, Algebra). I hold a Substitute Teaching Permit, and I was able to pass the CBEST exams, which consists of Reading Comprehension, Math, and Writing Skills.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have an informal, friendly style to my tutoring methods. I feel that having a comfortable and friendly environment helps the learning process. I use clear and simple language to explain the material. I also feel it is extremely important to be a good listener, to be fully understanding of the students areas of strengths and weaknesses. In my experience, I have found it helpful to have the students demonstrate what they have learned to determine proficiency.
I recently graduated, with honors and special recognition, from Merced Community College with an AA in Business Administration. I officially worked as a tutor at the college, tutoring upper level math. However, unofficially, I tutored many classmates during my two years at the college, in various subjects. Prior to returning to school, I worked as an Office Technician for the California Department of Corections, Parole ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I have always had a passion for teaching students who face challenges in their lives. My focus is on the student and his lifelong education above test scores. I know that all children can learn and work hard to connect with each of my students and to individualize their educational experience.
During college, I worked as a home-school Spanish, Language Arts and History teacher for students ages seven through fourteen. I volunteered in classrooms, tutored, and provided childcare for children with special needs. I studied Spanish and abroad. Upon graduation, I began my teaching career in L.A. where I taught kindergarten. After three years, I decided to teach abroad and moved to a small Chinese city where I taught preschool. Back in the U.S., I taught an intervention class for struggling readers in the second and third grades. I also tutored for students after school in their home ... read more

More About This Tutor...

My philosophy is that all children can learn. They may not learn at the same rate or in the same way, but everyone is capable of learning. As a teacher, I take pride in helping students discover their love for learning by using manipulatives and other fun learning activities. I realize that some students are visual learners, while others are kinesthetic or auditory learners. I like to set realistic goals for the children and help them acheive those goals, so they can feel confident in themselves and their abilities. My goal is for each of my students to feel like they are successful, so they can reach their highest potential.
Education has always been very important to me. I was a nanny all throughout college and discovered my love for teaching by helping the children I watched learn in a variety of exciting ways. I have a Bachelor's degree in Merchandising and a Minor in Ma ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have earned a bachelor degree in Communicative Disorders with emphasis in Speech & Language Pathology, Audiology, and Deaf Education. With this background I have an understanding of various modes of learning. I have learned unique ways to teach grammar and vocabulary important for reading and writing. During my course of study I have learned to write goal focused lesson plans, and have had the opportunity to use them. For the last 2 years I have had experience working with children through substitute teaching.
I enjoy working with all children. Given the right opportunity, I believe all children can learn. My goal is to help your child find his/her strength and build on his/her confidence to learn. I strive in finding unique ways to engage children and make learning fun.

While earning my degree I worked as a pre-school teacher creating lesson plans and activites that were age appropriate. I have two years experience in public school teaching English for grades 9-12, and one year experience teaching journalism, art, yearbook and English in a private school.
All childern have the capacity to excel. It requires discovering the ways a student learns best (visual,auditory etc.) and applying that to teaching techniques with the expectation of success. I teach every lesson with a verbal, a visual, and written instruction so a student has every opportunity to retain knowledge and instruction. I love teaching and talking about grammar and literature and can pass that same love on to students as I have in the past.

A Little Bit About Me...

When I teach I also learn from my students. I am open to ideas and creativity. I am patient and I believe a child should never be forced to learn. Learning should be exciting and it is the right of a student to progress at his or her own pace.
I graduated with a degree in English while devoting time teaching kids and even adults martial arts. Also, I have tutored many of my younger cousins during their elementary school years and currently middle school as well. I have published two poetry books and am planning on writing a third book. I have a tremendous amount of love and passion for reaching out to others. I believe we will always be students, after all, we continue to learn each day. I grew up building computers, designing web pages, capable of typing over 100 words a minute, repairing computers and so forth. I don't have any certifications or awards with computers, however, i ... read more

More About This Tutor...

My teaching style is very unique. I start off by just getting to know the student and having them get to know and trust me. I then build on that trust factor while helping the students with their homework. I connect well with students and they trust me. In the end, it seems to be the best way the students I work with learn and finish their work. Learning should be fun and not boring. It should be interactive and not just book work. If a student can experience learning first hand, they're bound to acquire enough knowledge to help them succeed.
