I am very caring and cautious that each student learns in their own way and my teaching will be based on the students needs.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have always helped people with their homework, particularly in when it comes to English and elementary math. I worked for wyzant.com for four months, where I tutored a little girl in Spanish and it was really fun, but ultimately she had too much on her plate so I stopped. A year later the father of the girl I tutored before asked me to come back, but by then I had a full-time job and school. Now I would like to go back to tutoring because its something I enjoy and I am also good at it.
I like to make learning fun by teaching according to what my students like. For instance, with the little girl I tutored, I knew that she was a visual learner and that she loved art and music so I gave her a mnemonic device in a form a song she liked to help her remember verb conjugations. I also made flashcards for her to remember fruits and vegetables as well as articles of clothing. I will make ... read more

More About This Tutor...

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.
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 worked as a personal tutor in the past, and have helped students with a variety of subjects from Trigonometry to Spanish. I have also worked with international students learning English. I experienced great academic success in high school (I earned very competitive scores on several AP and SAT exams), graduated as a valedictorian, and received a 4 year scholarship to attend California State University, Long Beach. In college I majored in Spanish, spent a year living and studying in Madrid, Spain, and graduated from CSULB with highest honors and distinction in my major. I have advanced proficiency in speaking, reading, and writing Spanish and am very passionate in helping others achieve the same.

A Little Bit About Me...

In my 40+ years of experience in the field of education, I have taught full time at all grade levels, from pre-school to teacher training. In the field of adult education have taught writing to Chinese-speaking adults, which enabed them to pass the California teacher exam. I have taught remedial reading classes, and after-school tutoring programs at education centers and in individual homes.
My teaching style centers around the value of the students. They deserve respect and are required to give respect. My students are generlly relaxed in my classroom, but expected to work to their best ability. To that end I try to present material in a variety of ways, to address the various learning styls of the students, and discover methods to remedy weaknesses and build on strengths.

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.

Everyone can learn; and everyone deserves the opportunity to learn whatever he or she needs to successfully achieve his or her highest personal, social, and educational goals. Every learner is unique and deserves learning situations tailored to activate and engage their unique background and learning style. In addition, everyone has an innate desire to learn and the goal of education is to engage this desire for learning in ways that are personally relevant to each individual learner. When students are expected to learn and engaged with their innate desire to learn through differentiated instruction that meets their individual learning style, they will live up to the expectations presented to them.
I have worked variously as a technical writer and editor, substitute teacher, and computer technician, but always returned to teaching. I possess a single subject credential in English, ... read more

I love working with children and helping them discover the world around them. Every child is capable of learning, but in his or her own way, and the key is find what works best for each one. I am patient, considerate, and kind, treating each child as I like to be treated. I try to build on past experiences and knowledge so the child can relate what is being taught to his or her world, making it relevant to the here and now. Every child can realize their learning potential if their teachers provide a safe and appropriate environment. My goal is to provide that environment, and help them achieve the academic success they need, and thus make a difference in their lives.

Kids need to feel comfortable and safe with the person who is working with them in order to relax and just try. I start where the student is and help move forward form there. I will repeat, show, explain in different ways, and validate the student's progress as many times as it takes. I can recognize the teaching moments, and I identify the missing pieces that will turn the light on for the key concepts. I love working with all ages, including adult learners and persons with disabilities.

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 is the greatest of all honors. This illustrates my passion for teaching our youth. I have 22 years experience teaching grades 4-12. I have taught all subjects as part of regular education, special education, English Language Learners, Gifted and Talented, At-Risk, and Retention programs. I am dedicated to bringing out the best in our youth so that they may enjoy successful and happy lives.

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. As a nanny, I have several years experience teaching small children to read. I am also well versed in theatre arts, dance, and world history.
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 ... read more
