I respect my students and they respect me. I expect them to work hard, because I work hard, as well. I will do what is humanly possible to help them achieve their goals. I connect with students on a personal level to find out their manner of learning, and after that, I find materials which will make it easier for them to learn. I enjoy working with students who love learning, but if they do not, I can still help them to do better in school.
I have been teaching for twenty seven years in various grades, schools, and types of classes. I taught for 16 years in a bilingual classroom. My last 11 years of teaching have been in a traditional classroom. I have taught every grade level from 1st to 7th, and currently, I even teach an ESL class after school. My areas of expertise would be writing, English grammar, Spanish, and social sciences. I currently tutor students to prepare for their s ... read more

As an Application Engineer for a research company, it was my resposaability to train, instruct and give seminars on the material currently in vogue in Semiconductor, Biology, Physics, and Geology in materials to be analyzed. These seminars were meant to instruct and inform researchers of the techniques available. Most seminars were at colleges and universities in the U.S. and overseas. I began to wind down my travels and explored the potential of teaching locally. For the past three years I have been a substitute teacher in Tuolumne County district as well as 4 seminars every year.
I had no intention of teaching when I started my career in Psychology and the Analytical Chemistry industry. I continuously tried to improve my methadology to arrive at the right mix of stimulation and information to make the learning process as interesting as possible.

At a very young age I decided to be a veterinarian. While I have not yet completed this goal I have stayed true and remained in the biological science field. I received my BS in Animal & Veterinary Sciences this past May and have taken many classes in the Biological Sciences ranging from Basic Biology to Plant Science, Soils, and very in depth classes on Animal Biology including the subjects of reproduction, digestion and nutrition. I have taken courses in both Human and Animal anatomy and physiology as well. I do not have an extensive background in tutoring, but I have tutored students in Math, basic anatomy, and several students in my Animal Science classes. I have also taught softball pitching lessons for approximately ten years.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have been working with children from K-12 grade since 2001. I was part of the Math Academy in 2002. I have been subsituting in grades K-8 since 2009. I am fluent in the Spanish and I have experience working with migrant as well as with English Learner students. I worked with EL students for 3 years. I have also had the chance to work with special needs children.
I enjoy working with children. My theory of teaching is using the multiple intelligence theory. I believe that all children have the capacity to learn but in their own way. I like to incoporate different styles of learning in a lesson. I also like to incorporate hands on activities, because I believe that doing is learning.

My style is to teach a concept during the one on one session with me. I then give them homework to reinforce the learning on personal time. In the following meeting I revise what we learnt in previous session to ensure they understood before proceeding to next topic. I work with students with different learning styles (pictures, words and numbers) and will adapt to their needs. I am patient and will explain numerous times, in different ways, to ensure learning.
During my undergraduate years, I was tutoring a local grade 4 student in math. I thoroughly enjoyed the experience in making a difference in somebody's life. During the last 15 years in my career, I have always been involved in training/teaching/mentoring individuals whether it is a new computer system or helping my direct staff to grow to their full potential.

I have earned one bachelor degree, BS in Biology, which has enabled me to gain an understanding in many areas of science.
I love teaching and working with all children. I believe all children can learn, but each in different ways. I am available to help your child find academic success. I am patient, easy going, and considerate. My goal is to provide the best education possible. I am a firm believer in teaching through discovery and in providing a constructivist approach to learning. 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. I strive to make a difference in all of my students' lives.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have had the experience of teaching students of all ages: kindergarteners, elementary schoolers, middle schoolers, high schoolers, and adults. I have also taught students whose primary language is not English. Each age group has required a different style of approach, so I cannot comment on my teaching style in full here, but suffice it to say that I cater my teaching style to match the student's age, academic skill, and time.
I graduated with an MA in English (TESOL), and a BA in English Composition (writing). I have had a successful career as an English Instructor. My notable areas of expertise include writing (essays, GREs, SATs, TOEFLs, resume writing, etc.), grammar/linguistics, reading skills, oral communication, and vocabulary development. I am proficient in several foreign languages as well: Japanese, Chinese (Mandarin), Korean, and some Spanish.

Math and biological sciences have always been subjects, which have interested me. I have graduated from UCLA with a BS in Applied Mathematics and during my undergraduate studies I also took several biology courses. Following graduation, I worked at prep center for high school students where I taught and tutored students in math from algebra to calculus. Additionally during my last two years of high school, I tutored math before, during, and after school; during this time I also tutored privately in math and biology.
I enjoy working with students and helping them understand math and science. I believe it is important to understand the concepts behind the problems. I take the time to explain the concepts that challenge the students through examples. I give the students steps to follow to solve the problem and for word problems I teach them how to pick out key information needed in or ... read more

I love teaching. I am very patient. I believe if a student is not doing well in studies the teacher is responsible for that. I won’t give up until the student understands the topic. My job is to pull the latent potential from every child and to make them realize that what they are capable of. I make students learn from their mistakes. I give the students fun loaded learning experience. Because learning from mistakes and learning by enjoying the subject are the only two ways, a person never forgets what they have learnt.
I am a Graduate in Electronics and Communications Engineering. I have earned BS in Electronics and Communications Engineering in the year 2004.

Teaching is my passion, I believe that every student has the ability to do better and every student can be taught. There is no set method to teach as every person absorbs information differently. I like to teach by providing many different methods of instruction and then observing which is the best of my students. In the mathematics and science areas there are a variety of instruction methods. For mathematics, I teach a student how to do a problem, then go over a problem together before finally allowing the student to solve one. An educator needs to adjust their teaching method with every student he/she works with and I believe that this is one skill that I am excellent at.
I currently have a BS in biology with a Minor in Chemistry and 2 concentrations. Earning this degree enabled me to not only study biology, but also allowed me to study mathematics. I have taken math cours ... read more

I understand how important it is have a good teacher when it comes to biology and the sciences. It takes time, patience, and deep understanding of the material to effectively learn it. On my way to earning my Bachelor’s degree and now working on my Masters, I have developed techniques that have worked for me and other students that I have taught in the last few years. Biology isn’t easy, but it is my job to make it easy to learn. It is all about effectively using the time you have to learn the material. Any child can learn anything if he is taught the material the proper way. I believe education is the most important thing for a child. I want to help them strive in school, because it will ultimately be better for them in their lives.

With a native speaker, you will quickly improve your French skills. As soon as the immediate objectives of your tutoring lessons will be defined, we will work together to achieve the goals. As I learned English as a second language, I truly believe that it is very important to improve your listening/speaking skills while keeping learning grammar, vocabulary and writing skills in parallel. I will try to tailor it to each person individually. Fell free to ask me questions.
