More About This Tutor...

I excelled in both math and English tracks in high school, and when they ran out of math classes I could take, I started on computers. I put myself through college tutoring all levels of math from basic mathematics to advanced calcusus (though I never did like trig). I've been an award-winning professional website designer/developer for 16 years.

More About This Tutor...

Throughout my college years I have been employed by two different after school programs for a combined amount of 6 years tutoring/teaching in public school after school programs. (Grades K-6) I also spent 2 months teaching full time 3rd and 4th grade after college prior to unfortunately being laid off due to financial losses in the school. I also tutored English in college through an Advanced English class I was placed in.
I have a passion and calling for working with children. From the time I was a child, I knew this is what I was meant to do. I believe children are the hope of our country, and that every child is capable of learning and expanding their knowledge. Knowledge is power, and if a child is given the proper encouragement and motivation they can and will succeed. I consider it an amazing privilege to be an educator and make a difference in the lives of my students.

A Little Bit About Me...

The foundation of my philosophical approach to teaching is that every student can learn. With that theory in mind, practice in the field of teaching has also shown me that actual acquisition of knowledge is a direct function of teacher effectiveness, student motivation, and student support. My style of teaching can best be described as student-centered. Every student learns differently. It is the teacher's responsibility to: 1. Adapt curriculum and lesson planning to the individual needs of all students; 2. Use student assessment as a guide to assessing teacher effectiveness; and 3. Evaluate teaching methods to find ways to re-teach the content.
I hold a Multiple Subject Teaching Credential, TESOL Certificate, and a Bachelor of Arts degree in Liberal Studies, Elementary Education. I have taught elementary, university composition, and working adult students. I have also particip ... read more

My teaching style involves a positive approach. I believe students learn best in an environment that is both positive and challenging. Positive feedback is essential because students are encouraged to take risks and solve problems. A challenging classroom teaches critical thinking skills that are necessary for the global market.
I tutored philosophy students for a year while in college. I earned a master's degree in early childhood education and taught second grade for two years. I also was a substitute teacher for grades K-8th. Currently, I am a motivational speaker and a mentor through United We Mentor.

I am dedicated to instilling knowledge and providing the means, or tools, to acquire knowledge. My expertise lies in the ability to individualize learning using the learning modality that best suits each student. I discover what hinders one's academic progress and correct it filling the gaps in an individual's education. All students can learn. It is my duty to discover how and use their abilities to achieve. All students must experience success; they cannot achieve it if they do not know what it is and what it feels like. My students succeed.
My greatest achievement is to have been inducted into "Who's Who Among America's Teachers" for four years by former junior high school students. Students in the top 15% of their high school graduating class are allowed the priviledge of nominating one teacher who has made the greatest difference in their lives. To be remembered as this person ... read more

I believe that an open dialogue is a teacher's most needed resource. Any child needs to feel as though he or she can express concerns or apprehensions without the fear of feeling embarrassed or stupid. I truly believe that there is no such thing as a stupid question. Teaching should, of course, relay necessary information, but it should also foster a student's drive to succeed, as well as the knowledge that any goal can be reached through perserverance. I enjoy helping students of all ages, and I look forward to what my students will inevitably teach me.
I am a California State University, Los Angeles graduate, holding a BA in English, with a specific focus on clasroom teaching. Throughout high school and college, I was driven to assist my peers, using my knowledge to ensure that they understood the subject matter and would succeed in any academic endeavors.

I believe that each child is an empty page in a book. Teachers must provide information to help fill up that page. It is my job to see that each child reaches their true potential. I realize that each child learns in different ways. I bring science and math to life by letting students explore different approaches to solving an equation or science mystry. There may be only one correct answer but there are many ways to find it. I am not a person who thinks that textbooks have all the answers or show the only way to look at things. I want my students to take chances, make mistakes (that is the only way you really learn) and get messy. If you are looking for a tutor who thinks out side of the box then I am the tutor for you.
I have over 10 years of experience as a substitute teacher and a regular full time classroom teacher. My first position was teaching Japanese Language to ... read more
