I am a seasoned professional with over twenty years of experience divided among the fields of law, educational recruiting, and teaching at the college level. After completing my bachelor's degree at USC, I earned my law degree. Because my passion is literature, I opted to teach rather than pursue a career in law. I was offered a position heading up the remedial studies program at the Art Institute in Santa Ana. This position afforded me the opportunity to teach and tutor students who were struggling with their English skills. I also served as an adjunct professor at Brown Mackie College, where I taught students pursuing their associates degrees in paralegal and business. I find the most useful way to instill knowledge is to reach that place where the student sees practical value in what he or she is learning. I always knew when the moment hit by the expressions on my students' faces

Maintaining a good GPA was something extremely important to me during my academic years both in high school and in college. This is why I believe that everyone should have the opportunity and access to improve a certain academic area through the help of competent tutors like myself. Having earned a Bachelor Degree in Social Science with a primary field in Sociology and two secondary fields in Psychology and Ethnic Studies with University Honors, have enabled me to gain a better understanding of the society we live in today. In addition, I have been an AVID tutor in high school, which is a program whose main goal is to prepare students for college. I have tutored high school students in Social Studies, Math, Chemistry, English and Spanish. The world would be a boring place if all of its people were the same.

All students can learn, but in different ways. I, for one, learn best by watching how something is done. I can read about it, or hear a lecture about it, but seeing it helps me understand the subject. This type of teaching would be done with movies, drawing or acting out the situation. In my teaching, I try to use all methods available to me to help the students learn and to use their creativity. I especially try to get students to work in groups and to share their work with each other. I find that pier groups provide the best help in understanding the subject matter. The classroom should be a learning place of activities and fun. I started substitute teaching in 1983 while I was working on my Master's Degree at California State University, Long Beach. I have been a substitute teacher in Long Beach, Santa Barbara, Glendale, and Palm Springs. I have had experience as a long term s

My principal recently encouraged me to become a teacher and my co-workers commend on how the children love me. I believe this is because of my gentle, open and caring attitude towards others plus my intense love of learning and knowledge. The adults I have tutored in the past still keep in contact with me. I genuinely care about my students and encourage them to contact me whenever they need help outside of our session. I also think I am very resourceful and take initiative to create specific guides and worksheets for my students. I will be attending the CSU San Bernardino campus in Palm Desert to obtain my teaching credential. I cannot imagine working in any other field other than education. My background in tutoring includes ESL, elementary, middle school and college students. I have tutored predominately in Language Arts, which is my forte and passion. Since I am trilingual, I

I am a passionate and experienced teacher with background in many subject areas. Environmental Biology was my BA major; it included work in botany, zoology (especially but by no means exclusively marine invertebrates) and ecology as well as chemistry, English, physiology and anatomy. I am a musician, an artist, a poet and a naturalist. I have over nine years of experience teaching in institutions throughout the country, such as museums and science centers. I also ran my own business teaching music to preschoolers. I believe in you, and I believe in our ability to work together. Finding the right way to connect with my students is an exciting challenge. My students have included preschoolers to senior citizens, third world farmers to education professionals. Learning should be structured. Learning should be fun. Whenever appropriate, I use games and activities. Hablo Esp

We play word games, read out loud, discuss cartoons and ask each other questions/answers. Try to vary up the hour. I am a very patient teacher and try to assess if the student is understanding all that I am teaching. I ask plenty of questions and try to get them to communicate with me and others in the group, if it's a class situation. I taught English as a second language to adults and children in Austria and Germany while living there (total 4 years). I speak fluent German and lived in Europe for a total of 13 years. In LA, I taught english to a number of Korean and Japanese young adults. I taught at Inlingua and WIFI Institute in Austria and at a business english school in Hamburg.

Through my experiences working with children, I have learned to adapt my teaching styles to fit each students' individual needs. Many students learn through visual and tactile means, where as others can pick up new material orally. I also believe it is important for me as an educator to connect with the students in way that each student feels that you understand them. Many students lack self esteem and confidence when it comes to their learning abilities and I am there to help them believe in themselves in order to produce successful work. My background as a bilingual educator has helped me to consistently be culturally sensitive in the classroom environment as well as within the community. As a graduate in the field of Education, I have found my true passion in helping students reach their goals and achieve success. I have been working with children in different capacities from

I have been a teacher for 20 years. I love creating a learning environment for all students. My work ethics of hard work, compassion, caring, friendly, and accepting has molded many young minds. Curriculum is only as good as the educator administrating it. A well managed classroom is a priority, respect for all individuals, and monitoring learning are important bench marks for students to achieve their potential. I began my career as an interior designer with a BA in Fine Arts and Certificate of Design. My love for learning brought me to earn a Master's Degree on scholarship in teaching. This degree prepared me to teach pre-k students to eighth grade. In order to teach all students I acquired an endorsement of English as a second language and a gifted endorsement. I have had the privilege of teaching my colleagues how to teach writing. My desire to teach for excellence has been

I have earned two degrees, a bachelors degree in Business and Masters in Business and Information Technology which has provided me with outstanding experience and understanding in the math, reading comprehension areas. I have always excelled in science as well because the subject has always been a joy of learning for me. I have personally held afterschool science programs at the local recreation center for children in grades k-8. Working with the youth has always been a joy for me and for the past 7 years I have contributed in a number of subjects including writing, reading, math and science. I really enjoy teaching and working with children of all ages. I know that children can excel at anything and we all have different learning styles.
