More About This Tutor...

The beginning of everything, I've got three younger sisters and there has always been a fair amount of helping out where they're concerned. I've babysat since I was twelve and for the past few years I've worked as a nanny. It's not exactly what you would expect for a tutor but I've been offering homework help in those areas for many years.

I love my students, and am dedicated to their success.

I am student oriented, especially for tutoring. I emphasize building student's confidence and mastery of organizational skills, and test prep.
I have been a tutor for over ten years, specializing in Spanish/French. Also, History, ESL, English,Writing,Language Arts etc. Prior to that, I translated Spanish/French for United Airlines International at SFO for their daily Mexico City and Paris flights, from 1992-1996. I delight in helping my students master vocabulary and conversational skills with ease. My job is to promote their self-confidence.

A Little Bit About Me...

"No one will care what you know until they know that you care." I have great enthusiasm and passion for teaching and I make great connections with students. I know all people are capable of change and growth. I strive to help create life-long learners who are motivated to grow. My instruction and coaching techniques are very user friendly, and have been very successful for high academic achievers as well as students who struggle with academics and are very resistant to anything that has to do with school.
As a high school teacher for 13 years, I have had a profound impact on the academic and personal success of a great majority of my students. I have won many "inspirational teacher awards" and have been identified by many of my students as the teacher most responsible for their success. They have said that I have made learning interesting, fun, and rewarding for them because I ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I am patient, have a good sense of humor, and strive to help students achieve to their ability. I have great faith in children's ability to develop proficiency in any content as long as they have adequate support. One size does not fit all in education and I use differentiation and different teaching modalities, with a lot of realia and manipulatives, to meet the students' learning styles and preferences, and the content area. I rely on colleagues for assistance when I am unable to fully help a child.
As an Adult Education teacher I taught learners from High School age through 70 year-olds. I taught office occupations; ESL; and GED, ABS, HS diploma and citizenship. I developed knowledge and skills in many content areas and in the management of students. I have taught post-graduate classes in computer applications for different content areas, reading and writing for elementary ... read more

My Teaching Style is to build a relationship with the student and their family. That is based on trust, confidence and a great deal of praise. Everyones performance is driven by the encouragement that they get on a daily basis. So a very important part of my teaching style is to include the whole family. As well as to encourage them to praise my student daily. Also they must provide activities that challenge their mind and build there confidence. This allows everyone to be a part of their success. For example: If they are working on reading skills. They must allow the child to read to them nightly.
I love to tutor because it gives me an opportunity to help students build their skills and to teach them that they have the ability to learn anything,they want to learn and are willing to put their mind, determination and dedication into. I strongly believe that most if not all students ... read more

My first tutoring experiences started in college when I was in a study group. From there I signed up for the college's tutor program in history and Remedial English. After college, I reinforced my knowledge with informal studies in US, Asian, European and Islamic history. From 2005 to 2008 I taught US History classes at St. John's Orthodox Academy in San Francisco to middle and high school students. There I wrote the school's first College Board approved AP curriculum for US History. These diverse experiences have strengthened my enthusiasm and my skills in both history and in teaching it to others.
My tutoring goal is to work myself out of my job. In other words, I am trying to help each student learn the subject so that he or she will succeed in the future with less outside help. Initially, I ask the student to review what he has learned and what he feels is need ... read more
