Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Heber, CA

I worked for A and 1 tutoring last year while getting my degree. Helping high school juniors and seniors having trouble passing the High school exit exam. I tutored ESL students helping them read and write English. I would meet one to one basis at their homes for a hour and a half every day and I would help them with their homework, and then we would work on reading on a everyday basis, by having them write a journal for 20 minutes every day, and read passages from their workbook, and answer questions. I would also show them videos about what was their favorite thing to do, for example I had a student who like to draw, so I would find articles about drawing and he would read the article and tell me what is what about. We would read the article and he would tell me what word he would not understand, we would look up the meaning and I would explain what the word meant. I would have

I have taught K-12 students and college students academic, college prep and adult education for 25 years. My students are encouraged to be academically strong , goal setters and goal achievers. I enjoy beung a lifelong learner, as I continue to acquire new knowledge. I have been contracted and tenured (by school districts). I began teaching (upon being advised to ddo so) as a substitute. This afforded me the opportunity to observe the different nuances of several schools, before I accepted a contract offer. My teaching style is relaxed, allowing ( and encouraging) more interaction with my students. I encourage my students to participate wholly, in the discussion.

I sit with students and ask them what they are having trouble with. I will then explain to them and make it as clear as possible so they can understand better the subject they are having trouble with. Once done with my explanation, I will have them work out problems to show me they really understand the subject. It is very important to be patient with every student because some are fast learners and some are slow learners. Depending how much the student is struggling, I will dedicate my time and make sure students fully understand everything they are required to learn. During my senior year in high school, I tutored and mentored at a program named AVID (Advancement Via Individual Determination). This program is designed to prepare students for college. My job was to help students with any subject they were having trouble with. Math was the most common subject that students needed help wi

I love math so I truly enjoy helping children to discover the world of math and to be fearless at them. I am patient, easy going but at the same time firm to teach. I believe all children can meet their potential if they are given the appropriate surroundings and learning experiences. A few good educators can make a world of difference to a child's education. During all my time as a student I tried to help my classmates to improve their learning and their grades by tutoring them. I have earned a bachelor degree in Industrial Engineer, which has enabled me to gain an understanding in many areas of math and physics. I am a Spanish native speaker, so I can help students in this language too. In my years of tutoring I have tutored students in mathematics (trigonometry, algebra), physics and English as a second language.

I began teaching and coaching swimming in 1980. In 1984, I extended my teaching experience by volunteering for the Eagle Mount program as a downhill ski instructor for students with several disabilities. At this time I decided to pursue a degree in education, which I completed in 1985. I was hired by the Crane District in Yuma, Arizona in January of 1986 and transferred to the Yuma Union High School District in the Fall. I have taught science and coached swimming since that time. I am Certified in the State of Arizona to teach biology, chemistry and earth science. Through out my career I have taught 14 different science and technology courses. Learners need to obtain information from a variety of stimuli to fully understand a concept. What is successful for one student may not work for an other. Therefore, I try to present each topic in several different ways. For example, on a recent

I have worked with students of all grade levels from volunteering at the Cocopah Head Start preschool to working with high school students as a substitute teacher. I have an English as a Second Language endorsement and have worked with adults in improving the English level. I excell in creative writing and am currently assisting friends in obtaining their GED. I believe in Howard Garner's theory of teaching to the student style of learning. They are as follows: Visual, Auditory, Musical, Kinesthetic, Interpersonal and Intrapersonal. As I work with the student and get to understand their abilities and limitations I develop a style that will work the best for that particular student.

In May of 2004 I graduated from a small liberal arts college in Tacoma, Washington. I majored in English with an emphasis in writing. The writing curriculum I followed consisted of writing personal essays, articles, short fiction and even writing for children. Additionally, I wrote several research reports. Research for my Masters Degree required a lengthy detailed dissertation which turned out to consist of four chapters and about forty pages. I have had to practice my grammar, spelling and sentence structur this past year as an English teacher here in Yuma. I have spent about two years teaching and tutoring students in the subjects of reading, ESL and writing. I love teaching because it allows me to connect with youth. I find them very humorous. Some work hard, while others not so much, but either way, a teacher can learn so much from their student. Working in educatuion i

As a daughter of an elementary education teacher, I have been driven by a passion to teach children in areas where they show need. I am in my second year in Northern Arizona University with junior credits. My major is in Sociology, but I believe that helps me in pin-pointing the most important aspects of helping children individually in different social settings. I have done tutoring before, but never with a school district. I believe that every child has a unique way of learning and I am capable and flexible in showing them the different ways in which they can learn. I am an extremely patient person and will not stop until my student has learned every subject problem area. I am dedicate to the student one hundred percent. My teaching style varies according to the different areas of need in each child. No one child is the same, and they all learn in different manners. I approach the st

Working with children has always been my passion and goal, as I love teaching and helping children of all ages. I believe that the childhood is one of the most important factors in an individual's life, where growth in learning and understanding is a critical building block for their life. Children, being diverse and unique in various ways, each have an individual learning method. If found and applied to the manner of teaching, then the child has a higher chance of reaching their full potential as an individual. I am very patient, loving, considerate, and easy going. One of my joys in teaching is being able to broaden a child's foundation of understanding and opening their eyes in order to facilitate their own skills and manner of learning in the real-world. I strive to not only make a difference in my student's lives, but to encourage and motivate their own understanding and love of the

I currently have a Bachelor's in Elementary Education and hold an Arizona teaching certificate. I have spent many years volunteering in both my parent's classrooms. I have also spent the last school year substituting in elementary schools in Tennessee where I am living now. I have thoroughly enjoyed substituting in different grades and subjects. Each day is something new and exciting! I have taught six weeks in a first grade classroom, and have had many other assignments as a second grade teacher, third grade teacher, fifth grade teacher, p.e. teacher, art teacher and middle school English teacher. I will be in Yuma, Arizona this summer and would love to help your student(s) improve their skills and become prepared for the next school year! I believe that each child is capable of learning. I want my students to know that I will not give up on them, and that I believe they are all capable
