A Little Bit About Me...

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 enrichment program and annual play at Earl LeGette Elementary School. Having finished a financial planning course, I have also recently brushed up on my math skills. I have a well-rounded education and am constantly learning as I tutor my own children with their homework.
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 studen ... read more

Statement of Teaching Style I feel that all learners should have access to the highest quality education possible. The object of education is to provide each student with the tools that will help them develop their individual talents. All students should be given an opportunity in a safe educational setting to demonstrate their talents. This opportunity also means giving every student a chance to show their full potential. Instructors must have a pleasant and enthusiastic attitude. Instructors must be accepting of all students regardless of ethnic background or other personal factors. An instructor should use a variety of instructional methods and delivery techniques to facilitate the learning process.
I am an experienced Educator at both the secondary and post secondary levels. While teaching at Puyallup High School I received two awards for excellence for my work with spe ... read more

I have experience working with students of all ages and I thoroughly enjoy the challenge each person brings. I treat each student according to his/her needs and I look for the most effective ways he/she learns. I ask the student questions that lead to his/her discovery of the process, steps and answer to the problem. With this method the student has the satisfaction of resolving the problem, encourages him/her to continue on to more difficult ones, and gives him/her the confidence to do his/her best!

More About This Tutor...

Ever since I was young, I have been aware of sincerity in people, whether teacher or other adult. I found myself trusting and respecting those that treated me as a person with an individual mind rather than a senseless child. I worked harder to gain their respect and to represent myself well. This is the basis for my teaching style. I connect well with children because I am sincerely interested in seeing them do well and believe in themselves. I assess their level of understanding before jumping into an explanation and work with them to uncover the solution, challenging and encouraging them along the way.
After achieving a B.S. in Business Administration with an accounting concentration in 2006, I worked as a Senior Associate for a public accounting firm in Sacramento. I worked in teams supervising and training staff right out of college for several years. However, my true ... read more

I am a credential teacher specializing in math and reading. Currently, I am completing my Reading Specialist Credential at UC San Diego. I have been teaching for over 13 years in grades kindergarten thru college. I graduated from UC Davis teaching credential program. My teaching career has been focused on working with student with learning disabilities, academically challenged, special education, and student’s with I.E.P.s.

It is imperative to determine each student's strength and weakness, and eliminate all weakness. Working with students who are academically challenged takes patience, kindness, and encouragement.
