My teaching style is flexible, tailored to the specific needs of the student in question. Everybody learns differently and at different paces!
I've been a teacher's unofficial little helper since I was in Elementary, helping the students of my class that the teacher simply didn't have the extra time to help. From then on, I helped and even eventually taught my younger siblings when the current school system left them in the dust, and even helped them get a leg up and advance faster than their classmates. I've tutored a few younger kids in various subjects in my high school years, as well as occasionally teaching Taekwondo classes.

A Little Bit About Me...

I enjoy working with students of all ages and ability levels. I meet them and determine their learning style as well as general abilities. Helping each student to discover his or her strengths is key to success in tutoring each client. Working with classroom teachers or counselors is also very important as communication should be a strong link in the ability to pinpoint areas of need. Being positive and encouraging is a hallmark of good and successful tutoring. My students enjoy our sessions and the older students recommend me to their friends as well.
I worked in California for one year as a substitute teacher; I worked for three years in a Christian School first in a 3-4 combination, then a 5-6 combination, then a 4-5 combination. I then moved on to tutoring. My first year was with Sylvan Learning Center, then with a private tutoring group, One to One Learning Center in Sa ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have a passion for teaching, and that is the way I teach! I am a high-energy instructor who encourages children to not only reach their goals, but to also readily accept the next challenge as well. I do not teach "at" my students...instead, I teach with them, keeping them engaged and interested in the material...and wanting to learn more! I take a sincere interest in each and every one of my students, and feel that teaching extends far beyond the academics...I essentially make a positive difference in a child's life as their instructor, and knowing that is consistently my greatest reward. .
Having taught and tutored Honors English for both the private and public sector on the elementary, middle, high school, and college level, I am a dynamic enthusiastic instructor with a results-driven mindset.

I enjoy teaching and more importantly I love helping others. I am patient, easy going and understanding. I understand that learning is a process and is not the same for everyone. Some people response better to different forms of teaching than others and that is one of the major challenges teachers face. I work well with youth and enjoy challenging myself and trying new teaching methods because any student can learn. Any student can succeed.
As a undergraduate my main focus was interpersonal and intercultural communications. I tutored at a local high school for two years in many different subjects, especially math and english. I spent two years living in a francophone country in Africa and also have two years classwork in french as well.

More About This Tutor...

My teaching style is focussed but relaxed and tends to incorporate real life and current events into the experience in order to provide a point of reference for the child. Mutual respect and effective communication of goals and expectations from both parties is an essential.
I am a local professional with sixteen years of experiences in the Human Services field, most of those years in state and county government focusing on the protection of vulnerable populations. My other field of study in college was writing and I have strong grammar and vocabulary skills. I have edited medical research articles for several companies, edited newspaper articles, and I had a year of tutoring SAT prep courses through the Princeton Review.

A Little Bit About Me...

I believe in learning by doing. My goal is to help students take what they have learned and apply it toward real world experiences and their future personal, educational, and career goals. Every student has a unique learning style. When I work with students, I invest some time in understanding each student’s personal learning style so I can determine the best road to his or her success. I also believe in the use of technology in education, and encourage my students to use the latest technology to help them further their understanding of the curriculum. I have a good sense of humor, am honest, fair, and open-minded. Teaching is my passion!
My experience includes working with students in elementary, middle, and high school, as well as on the college level. I am a former certified teacher for the state of Kentucky, where I taught middle school English, Arts and Humanities, and Socia ... read more

I am a very patient person and my teaching style reflects that. I will always make sure your child understands the concepts that the teacher is trying to teach. Even when he or she shows that the material is understood I will always go over it a few more times to make sure it really sticks. Everyone has a learning style that works best for them and I will try to figure out the method that will allow your child to improve the most. I will also try and make sure I teach at a pace that is appropriate for your child.

I would tutor a student in other subjects on a case by case basis. I have written a lot of papers and am very good at grammar. I have been an English ... read more
