Advertising Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Hamilton City, CA

I love art and feel very strongly that it should be a very important part of everyone's education. Students are anxious to actively participate.

I currently have my California substitute teaching credential. I have worked previously for Placed County Office of Education and Yuba County Office of Education, substitute teaching. I currently work for Paradise Oaks Youth Services as a residential counselor, specifically on the 7 to 3 shift, tutoring the kids to help them complete their individual school program.

My main goal working with children is to give them the help and support they need to achieve their own goals. Education is of paramount importance for a child's future, in order to not only establish f
