A Little Bit About Me...

I have been tutoring math and science since I was a sophomore in high school. I thoroughly enjoy seeing my students succeed in both their academic and personal lives. I was an AVID tutor for three years, the most requested math tutor at Mount San Jacinto College for five years and a private tutor all that time.
I adapt my teaching to the students' learning style.

More About This Tutor...

I am an experienced classroom teacher, seminar leader and professional writer. My goals when I graduated from Olivet College in Bourbonnais, IL were to teach students in English, Speech, Drama and writing skills. I graduated with a 4.0 on the Deans List from this small college in Illinois. My career path has taken me from Secondary teacher in English, Speech and Drama to Public Relations, Marketing and currently the Financial Services Arena with a strong emphasis in education for my clients. After the October Fires in Southern California I tutored elementary children through Read/San Diego, which is a tutorial program, to help students with all basic skills such as reading, math, social studies and science. I recently taught a visitor from Japan in vocabulary, reading and pronunciation skills as he wanted to communicate better in the business world. It is my pleasure to help you an ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I am a recent graduate of California State University San Marcos. I earned a BS in Mathematics and graduated cum laude. During the last two years of my education I was tutoring at the Math Lab at Cal State San Marcos which led me to become certified as a Level 3 CRLA tutor. Also for the last two years, I had been working for a professor grading papers and helping out in the classroom. Since I have been working with a wide variety of students, I am now more aware of different learning skills and can accommodate more students.
I love being able to share my knowledge, especially with students who are still in high school. I have learned how to explain math using pictures, words, examples, songs, and many other ways. All students are able to learn, but the process is different for each individual. Once I find out how a student learns best, I am able to create an environment wher ... read more

Personally, I prefer hands on - lab style workshops - than endless lecturing and note taking. I like to grasp the student's maturity level and aptitude and go from there. All students need individualized attention, but it is also important to have team building skills inherent in the coursework so they learn to both help themselves and others. The first thing is to teach the love of learning, the second is 'how to learn,' and the third thing is the motivation to develop mastery. Most students do not learn how to study, learn how to learn, and if their parents are not educated, they usually never learn these skills.
Straight out of college, I began substitute teaching and then tutoring individuals. I specialized in English, reading skills, history, psychology, and counseling. Now, I'm a computer tutor, a technical writer on contract, and gone through countless hours on training for ... read more

Whether I am working with a single student or a classroom full of students, my teaching style focuses on ensuring that my students understand any key work we are doing before moving on. I am a patient teacher, but I do not allow students or tutees to "slack off" or "just get by." I will hold my students' feet to the fire until I am sure that they truly do understand what we are working on, and not that they have just memorized enough to be able to repeat back what they have been told.
As a Stanford graduate, I have worked in a variety of capacities teaching students, including as a classroom teacher for English Composition in Africa, as a German tutor for high school students, and as an editor and proofreader for a variety of essay types. I am confident tutoring and advising in a broad spectrum of humanities and liberal arts subjects, including English and other languages, writi ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Teaching is a great way to educate and to learn. As a tutor, first, I see the student’s understanding level. I plan ahead of time and prepare proper material. However, if the material is provided, I find effective methods of teaching, and teach each student accordingly. It’s obvious that some techniques work better for some students but not others. Therefor, I choose a good teaching method, and assist students to learn the material better, faster and easier.
As a recent graduate of San Diego State University with a Bachelor of Science in Biology and minor in Psychology, I have taken many classes in biology, physics, algebra, psychology, chemistry as well as organic chemistry. I learned how to plan, provide and educated students by teaching and tutoring sciences and English classes for four years.

Tutoring is a profession which I have enjoyed for over nine years, often while teaching in the classroom or online, concurrently. I was able to teach multi-subjects to college students because I excelled in all subjects myself, receiving numerous scholarship awards and honors. I chose after school tutoring as my extra duty assignment while teaching middle school and high school. I enjoy tutoring students because I experience the moment of “Ah ha, now I get it!” with them.
I am eclectic in my approaches towards teaching, ranging from Montessori and Classroom Without Walls, to Behaviorist and Cognitive approaches. I use what is observable, measurable, and works. I am always prepared to pull a rabbit out of my hat, and I always prepare additional alternative lesson plans in case an approach does not seem doable. I begin tutor sessions with interviews to assess goals. The ultimate goa ... read more

I have made my living as a professional writer for 40 years. Everything from TV commercials to “Knight-Rider”. I am a Member of the Writers Guild. In 1998, I was an advertising agency Creative Director asked by the University of Nevada Las Vegas to teach Introduction to Advertising. I fell overwhelmingly in love with the act and internal rewards of teaching. I created a new 400-level Copywriting course which I developed into a dynamic tool to find the heart of ANY communication—by applying the principles I had learned at New York’s Doyle Dane Bernbach Advertising. They revolutionized the language with a single brilliant mandate--add Human Truth to Empirical Truth. I found their epiphany worked for all writing. My course, my passion, and my students’ progress flowed from my ability to direct their work to finding that elusive Human Truth. 10 years. 20 straight semesters. Hundreds of stude ... read more

I have six years of tutoring experience. I am comfortable tutoring grades K-11, in subjects: Elementary Math, Elementary English, Reading, Phonics, Writing, English, Algebra, Geometry, Algebra 2, Multiplications facts/fact families. Study skills and note-taking are also specialties of mine.
Concepts build upon concepts. It’s often difficult for students to learn and expand on new concepts if they struggle with the basic skills. I like to start new clients with a “refresher course”, this shows me if the basic skills are there, and it’s a great warm up to tutoring. Once this is established, we can move onto greater obstacles. Visual aids and repeating steps in different ways are some of the tactics I use, as they help ensure total comprehension of tasks. Often times, I like to use supplemental materials as well. Above all, establishing a strong rapport with clients is essential for p ... read more
