I enjoy a hands-on teaching style, tailoring lesson plans to the child's interests and abilities. I have much experience teaching to children with learning challenges as my own son has ADHD and dyslexia.
After graduating from California State University in 1992 with a Bachelors degree in Child Development and Family Studies I taught and directed a school for a period of seven years before returning home to homeschool my own children for a period of ten years from preschool through eighth grade.

A Little Bit About Me...

As an educator, it is my job to recognize each child’s individual learning-style and adapt my teaching-style accordingly. I will build upon each child’s abilities and strengths, and work to improve upon his/her limitations. By reinforcing the student’s positive habits and capabilities, I hope, not only, to assist with the subject at hand, but to encourage each child’s desire to meet his/her full potential in every setting, academic or otherwise. Combining my comprehension of behavioral psychology and my vast experience with children, I believe that I am well-qualified to assist any child in attaining his or her educational goals. Further, I believe that learning can (and should) be fun, and hope to instill that in each of my students.
For the past 10 years, I have worked in my community, helping to better the lives of children. At age 15, I began mentoring young girls and volunteer ... read more

As a college graduate, I was extremely driven to achieve a high level of academic excellence. I earned my bachelors degree in Communication Studies with a minor in Philosophy. These have enabled me to have an understanding of many areas of Language Arts, History, and English. As a Comm Studies major I was held to a high standard of technical writing with essay and would always use credible sources for my research.
I love to teach, there is nothing more self rewarding then helping a person who is struggling to achieve something and helping them with their goals. I believe all students can find academic success somewhere if given the correct opportunities and surroundings. I firmly believe that I have been educated by some of the best and these educators have made a world of difference in my life and expectations. I would like to help students in the same way my educators helped m ... read more

I have worked with kids for nearly 10 years as an instructional soccer coach. I have also worked as a substitute teacher for the past three years at the K-12 level.

It is also important that I show my students that I care about them and their success. Students need to realize that it is ... 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. I enjoy teaching students and watching the “light bulb” come on.
I believe that every student can become successful in school, and has the ability to learn. Furthermore, each student has their own learning style and method of learning. 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. Actually, it is the o ... read more
