Read More About Angelo C...

I completed my MBA and Juris Doctorate while employed full time, married with two children. It has given me insight into the learning process and what is or isn't a distraction. I have taught over 20 years in several community colleges a full range of business subjects while employed in the accounting function. In addition, I published and managed a Law Review and later a sports magazine nationally.
I enjoy use of the Socratic Method but recognize that in the sciences a more pragmatic process is required. Over the years I have concluded that good teaching requires good analysis of which particular approach works for a student and then alter the materials to fit the need.

A Little Bit About Me...

I was a foster parent for fourteen years in which I spent numerous hours with each child weekly working with them to improve their academic skills. I taught a 4th/5th grade class in the 2006/2007 school year. I graduated with a 3.92 GPA where I excelled as a writer. I currently write the company newsletter at my place of employment. I love to teach and hope to be able to spend more time doing so. My BS is in Human Services.I also have added alcohol and drug studies to that degree. I will be taking a certification test very soon to acquire a RAS drug and alcohol certification. In my drug and alcohol study I became certified as a Motivational Interviewer and also received a certification in Group Facilitation.
I have had the experience to maintain patience when teaching students. I have always loved helping children become confident in who they are as well as in achieving their acade ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I am a very goal oriented person and expect those around me to posses the same quality. I have a great deal of patience, a positive attitude and I love helping students do well. While under pressure, I always maintain a positive attitude. I recently obtained my BA in Sociology from the University of California, Riverside and I am very eager to continue my work with students and provide them the best assistance possible to ensure they excel in all that they do. My work background and coursework have supplied me with an understanding of dealing with the adolescent community. I want to make a difference in the lives of the students I teach so that they will be motivated to do the same.
Over the past 3 years, I have assisted students with very different personalities. Some were excited to receive the help while others were embarrassed to need it. My main goal when teaching is allowing ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I can teach children of all ages. I believe it is easiest to build rapport with the student before teaching them. If there is a good relationship between the student and teacher then it is easier to teach and learn. I use different styles of teaching that address all types of learners. I will incorporate visual aids, music, hand movements and other techniques to enhance the students retention of information. I have patience and like to use positive feedback to motivate my students.
I have tutored high school students at San Gorgonio High School in a variety of subjects for 6 months. In addition, I worked as an independent English tutor in Buenos Aires, Argentina for 6 months. When I was in high school I did two years of tutoring at Franklin Elementary. I'm currently employed at Club Z Tutoring and attend University of Redlands to obtain my teaching credential.

My teaching experience has been in the corporate world, where I was responsible for training and teaching employees both basics and advanced techniques in the broadcast field of advertising.

More About This Tutor...

At Loyola University, as director of the Writing Lab, I used peer tutoring and computers to assist students in the composition classes. I developed a love for tutoring and remediation -- for the student who needs one-on-one instruction. I allow the student to be successful. Every lesson must end in success and praise. It also helps that I have a good sense of humor and a knack for discovering each student's personal interests and melding those into the lessons. It's imperative instruction be individualized, positive and patient.
After I got my BA and Illinois secondary school certification, I pursued my MFA in Playwriting at the University of Utah. I forged a career as a writer and journalist. My liberal education in history and the arts deeply benefited me. Since 1990, I've been a full-time editor for several daily newspapers and magazines, and I continue a profitable freelance w ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I love the art of teaching. Teaching to me is not only about communicating ideas and information, but also about motivating and inspiring the students about the learning material. Statistics, I have found is a subject that many students are a bit apprehensive about. In my teaching in endeavor to make the study material relevant to their daily life experience, breaking complex ideas into simple parts and then putting them together. I have seen that being positive and enthusiastic helps the student to be more receptive and open, and hence more keen to learn.
I am an advanced level PhD student in Statistics at UC Riverside and I have been a teaching assistant holding discussions and labs for undergraduate Statistics courses for the last five years.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have had a thirst for helping others at an early age. From the age of 15 I have volunteered to teach youth and the majority of my professional background has been in tutoring and mentoring. For the past two years I have worked as a literacy teacher to incarcerated youth and was measured monthly on accuracy. Each of my students increased at least 2 grade levels within only 20hours of class. I am also working now part-time with a nationally known SAT test prep company doing tutoring as well. I am comfortable tutoring literacy, English, grammar, mathematics and all SAT prep.
I am a natural teacher. I have a gift for being able to explain to someone the "why" rather than the notion "it is just because". I feel it is the duty of teachers and tutors to deliver information in a way that allows each student to fully grasp the concept. My best way to know that I have done my job is if th ... read more
