My comments on tutoring Testing Strategies : Same as above.

I was trained to be a teacher at CSU-Fresno, where I graduated in May, 1999. I substituted for 3 consecutive years in Fresno, Clovis, and Madera Unified School districts at grade levels 3-12. I received my Master's Degree in Sports Administration from the American Public University system in May, 2011, and graduated with Honors and a 4.0 GPA. I am currently trying to obtain my credential and hope to be an Athletic Director one day.
My teaching 'style' is a bit unique, in my opinion. By that, I mean that every child/student 'learns' differently, so I must 'adapt' my style 'on the fly' after determining what is the most effective approach/style/method for that individual student. In addition, the subject that I am teaching also affects my style and some 'tools' that I learned as a youngster and a teacher are also implemented frequently.

Using the Right Methods to Unlock a Students Full Potential!

Most of the students who require tutoring have trouble building on previous lessons they have learned. The problem is if a student fails to learn a concept in class by the time the teacher moves on, he/she will be left behind from that point on. The job of a tutor is to find these hold ups and patch them with a customized lesson plan to fit the students learning patterns. This is what i will do and i personally promise results in under a month
I've always enjoyed helping others understand mathematics. During my high school years i would voluntarily help my friends, and the classmates near me keep up with class lectures and provide them with tips to help them complete take home assignments. I know the importance of having a personalized method of teaching according to the individual and their specific needs. No one learns the same so we should not be taught the same!

Creative Learning Solutions - Differentiated Instruction

My teaching style is dependent upon the student's learning style.

I have also served in the capacity of Literacy Coach training other teachers, and as a intervention specialist. I have experience teaching special needs students as well as advanced learners.

For the past five years, I have been teaching in a classroom. I have taught 6th grade for two years, 4th grade for two years and 3rd grade for a year. I have taught multiple subjects, including reading,writing, math, and English Language Development.
I Believe: Every student can succeed. Each student is unique. Students should have individual accountability for learning. Goals need to be set so the students know what direction they are going. Cooperative learning is a way for students to be involved in the learning process. Curriculum should have a connection in students’ lives as well as be progressive and motivational. Consistency allows the students to develop a routine and know what is expected from them. Communication is the key in running an effective classroom. Students should have a part in establishing classroom rules and consequences. Classroom management, wit ... read more

I think each student is differnt and so is their learning style. As a teacher I want my student to find their confidence in math which mostly comes when they understand the subject completely. I not only have lot of experience under my belt but since I compelted part of studies in a different school system, I am able to explain one problem in several different ways. They say "you can lead a horse to water but you can't make them drink it". As a teacher it is my job to make them thirsty for math so they won't be able to resist that water of knowledge.
I stated tutoring privately and through the college when I was a student myself to see if teaching was something I wanted to do as a career. I tutored all my college years and realized that this is exactly what I want to wake up for every day. I earned my BS and single subject in Mathematics from Fresno State University. I have worked ... read more

It seems to me that everyone can learn, in different ways and at different times. My approach is to have several options of which approach will be successful. Being a 1:1 teacher allows me the freedom and time to work with a student on a concept in a number of ways until the cognition sets in for him. Being enthusiastic and excited about the learning experience is contagious. I always think about the teachers who were indifferent compared to the ones who were animated. I am definitely animated, excited, and enthusiastic. I believe in combining visual, tactile, and aural whenever possible.
My experience in the teaching field has been primarily as a substitute on a daily basis. I have some long-term sub assignments in my resume as well. For the past 7 years I have limited my assignments to "Home/Hospital". I meet 5 hours per week with each student to provide complete instruction ... read more

I have tutored children in reading last summer. It was one of the most gratifying things I have done. I worked with English as second language children ranging from ages 5 to 13. We used a lesson plan and several activities to help children in achieving their reading level goals. Also, in my undergrad experience, I excelled in writing and was very good with meeting deadlines.
I am a very down to earth person especially when it comes to kids. I always try to lighten up the mood and make learning things interesting and fun. I don't like to dismiss when I see a child having trouble in something. Every person has a different way of learning, I try to cater to each of their needs.

I graduated summa cum laude with a BA in Communication and a Minor in Bible. I worked as a television and radio writer before earning two single subject credentials, one in English and one in Social Science. I am in my fifth year teaching at a unique charter high school. At my school, I work one on one with my students. I have become quite adept at creating rapport. Some students come to my school because they are highly gifted and want to graduate at an accelerated pace, while some of my students are years behind their grade level. I have helped many students graduate and move to college. My main expertise is in writing, Language Arts and Social Science.
My five years of teaching has reinforced my belief that all students are capable of learning. I believe that learning is one part effort and one part technique. If a person is willing, they can, and will, learn. It is my job to ... read more

I have earned BS in chemistry and MS in computer science. I am able to tutor students in math, chemistry, and computer programming. My only goal is to make sure students understand the subjects well and satisfy my work.
First of all I love to teach and work together with parents and students. If you have questions, I have answers. I am not just having those answers for students, I will find out why students have those questions.
