I just recently received my bachelor degree in English literature. I have always been passionate about learning and teaching. Over my four years in college I was able to develop an advanced skill set for both interpreting and writing about literature, culminating in writing a senior thesis interpreting James Joyce’s Ulysses. These skills allowed me to receive the Frank Krutzke award for the best thesis written by a senior English major. In the four years that I tutored I have helped students with basic mathematics and English, as well as helping students to write research papers on various subjects. I have always loved working with children. I believe that not only does every child learn and comprehend the material differently, but also each child must approach each subject differently. It is my job to discover the best method to help each specific child reach his or her full potential.

I believe children need to feel success in the classroom. Making a mistake is not necessarily bad. Sometimes making a ton of mistakes is the route to understanding. Repetition is necessary to building strong skills. I try to create a positive environment for learning, stress free. I'm an upbeat individual who's highly motivated to working with students of all ages. Prior to receiving my BA in Music, I worked for over twenty years in the medical and pharmaceutical field as a medical transcriptionist, medical biller/coder and pharmaceutical technician. I attended many courses to obtain a medical transcription license and pharmaceutical technician license in California. During my early college years, I tutored music students at Diablo Valley College in Pleasant Hill, CA and math students. I made a decision to return back to college to pursue a degree. I graduated from the University

My teaching style involves fun and an active student. Self-discovery is the best way to learn and retain knowledge. I see myself as the facilitator; I give my students the tools, so they can figure out problems on their own and become more self-reliant. I want learning to be fun, involving games, healthy competition and active learning, so students become life long learners. Having said that, I have high expectations for students' abilities and behavior. I have always been able to build rapport and a mutual respect with students of all ages and backgrounds. That trust makes the learning environment more impactful. I have taught ESL for 17 years to children and adults from all over the world. I have a strong command of language arts and am experienced at teaching literacy, grammar, vocabulary, spelling, essay writing, phonics, pronunciation, etc. I coordinate the after school enri

I had no intention of teaching when I started my career in Psychology and the Analytical Chemistry industry. I continuously tried to improve my methadology to arrive at the right mix of stimulation and information to make the learning process as interesting as possible. Teaching the Physics of Xrays and chemical analysis does challenge one to keep assessing the learned content and modify as results indicate. The results of effective teaching and learning start with asking questions about the purpose of the instructions, how will the results of the learning be measured, and what is educational level of the students? I try to teach them how to learn, rather than the concepts of facts and numbers, what do the numbers mean? As an Application Engineer for a research company, it was my resposaability to train, instruct and give seminars on the material currently in vogue in Semiconductor, Bio
