More About This Tutor...

After having both tutored and taught in the classroom, I find tutoring to be more enjoyable. Since each student learns in a different way it is much easier to teach them one-on-one than a whole classroom full. I’ve always enjoyed watching their faces light up when they figure out a problem for the first time. I believe that tutoring is a very powerful tool because a lot of students need that extra push to succeed that they can’t get being in a classroom.
As a college student, I enjoyed helping others and began working in the tutoring center at Merced College. After I transferred to CSU Stanislaus, I worked both at the tutoring center and for a state program that placed me in one of the local high schools to work with groups of seniors with low math scores in order to help improve their SAT scores. After graduation, I was hired as a substitute teacher. However, the classroom setting ... read more

I have always had a passion for teaching students who face challenges in their lives. My focus is on the student and his lifelong education above test scores. I know that all children can learn and work hard to connect with each of my students and to individualize their educational experience.
During college, I worked as a home-school Spanish, Language Arts and History teacher for students ages seven through fourteen. I volunteered in classrooms, tutored, and provided childcare for children with special needs. I studied Spanish and abroad. Upon graduation, I began my teaching career in L.A. where I taught kindergarten. After three years, I decided to teach abroad and moved to a small Chinese city where I taught preschool. Back in the U.S., I taught an intervention class for struggling readers in the second and third grades. I also tutored for students after school in their home ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

My philosophy is that all children can learn. They may not learn at the same rate or in the same way, but everyone is capable of learning. As a teacher, I take pride in helping students discover their love for learning by using manipulatives and other fun learning activities. I realize that some students are visual learners, while others are kinesthetic or auditory learners. I like to set realistic goals for the children and help them acheive those goals, so they can feel confident in themselves and their abilities. My goal is for each of my students to feel like they are successful, so they can reach their highest potential.
Education has always been very important to me. I was a nanny all throughout college and discovered my love for teaching by helping the children I watched learn in a variety of exciting ways. I have a Bachelor's degree in Merchandising and a Minor in Ma ... read more

I come from a family with a rich history in teaching. I have several cousins, aunts and great aunts who work and have worked as teachers in the State of California. Like them, it is my dream and goal to make a positive difference in the lives of the students I teach and tutor. I have achieved this in my teaching experience by providing a welcoming and accepting educational environment where students are actively involved in the learning process. Certain theorists have helped me gain a broad understanding of the learning experience, which has helped me develop my teaching style. Two theories who have influenced my teaching style are Vygotsky's theory in social cognition and Piaget’s theory of mental development. These two theories have influenced my approach to teaching and have helped me to understand the learning process and my student's potential.

A Little Bit About Me...

When it comes to teaching, I have great skills in reaching the difficult child as well as the over-achiever. My background in counseling helps me to understand and direct their behavioral problems as well as the educational goals. I strive to reach all my students and make education not only fun but a valuable learning experience.
I am a graduate student at Andrews University studying for my comprehensives. I have always educated children and adults in one form or another. I tutored peers in languages in college, taught Bible courses in church, and taught in the private sector for 7 years. I have tutored for the past two years in various subjects such as reading, math, Spanish, geometry, English, and computers.

A Little Bit About Me...

As a graduate of the University of California, Merced, I was driven to achieve a high level of excellence in education. My studies include an emphasis in geography, public policy, literature, and history. Through my college experience, I have learned extensive study and grammatical skills due to writing research papers and field reports. While attending Modesto Junior College, I tutored k-6 students in reading. I have continued tutoring k-12 students in reading, language arts and mathematics, up to pre-algebra, for the past two years.
I love my job as a tutor and helping children learn. I believe that each child is unique in the way they learn. I find that the one-on-one tutoring method helps each child grow to their full potential. Through this one-on-one setting I am able to devote my full attention to the child. This process allows me to evaluate the unique learning styl ... read more

I have been working with children from my teenage years and love teaching. I believe each child is an indiviual with his or her own way of learning. I believe in the hands on approach to teaching, in providing learning experiences that will enhance a childs understanding of the subject material, and in using teaching techniques that best suit a childs style of learning. As your childs tutor, I would do my best to help your child achieve academic success and meet his or her learning potential. My goal is to make a difference in my students lives by providing a good education using patience, understanding, and determination.

I received my BA from Azusa Pacific University in 1994. In 1995, I worked full-time as a teacher while going to school at night and received my Multiple Subject Credential. I have been teaching in the public schools since 1994. I have taught 7th and 8th grade math, science, US History, and ESL. I have also taught Seriously Emotionally Disturbed children, 1st grade, 6th grade, and Kindergarten. I have a passion for teaching students to read because my own child has dyslexia. I understand the struggle it is for these children to succeed in school, so when i tutor, I use the Susan Barton Reading program, which is a multisensory approach to reading and phonics.
I truly enjoy when I get the chance to work one-on-one with a student. I am the kind of teacher you will see sitting on the floor with a student, acting things out in front of the class, making up songs to go with the curriculum ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

My teaching style is straight and to the point. My goal is to make the kids understand that the only thing holding them back is themselves. Hard work and a desire to learn will win every time. I LOVE the moment when the kids "get it", when they become confident in learning.
When I entered college I was immediately drawn to tutor my peers as needed. I worked with the single mom's program at IVC and also did job coaching for the City of Long Beach Disabled program. Once I graduated from college I had the opportunity to join the Boys & Girls Clubs, specifically designing educational and technology programs. I enjoyed tutoring about 50 youth a day. As a result some parents requested that I run a special off hours program at their middle school to tutor the ADHD kids. Every child in that program raised their grades 60% over the course of the semester. Since that time I have honed ... read more

I've honed my coaching style to develop many of the tools needed to reach students in every age group because people never stop learning, so I am prepared to assist others wherever they find themselves in their education experience. I'm a quiet, patient teacher with a flexible style that includes learning by using examples from life, not just a given curriculum. Each student is different, so I believe it's vitally important to connect with each one so as to make the learning experience as comfortable and beneficial as possible for both student and teacher.
