More About This Tutor...

I believe that every child is an individual with a distinctive story. Embracing such stories, I will make a profound difference on my students. Validating students’ abilities, experiences, and interests creates a trusting atmosphere. My role as teacher is to guide my students into authentic learning. For students to construct knowledge, they need the opportunity to discover for themselves practical skills. Every child has the ability to take control of their learning by thinking, reading, and writing critically. I believe it is important to employ a variety of delivery methods, using methods that incorporate all intelligences and learning abilities while let the students natural abilities shine.
For the last two years I have worked as a tutor with elementary aged children on phonemic awareness, comprehension, improving analytical ability, and basic math skills. While teaching and t ... read more

I have enjoyed teaching and tutoring a wide range of students in a vast array of different settings. Most recently, I have tutored reading to 4th graders at an elementary school, taught ESL and GED subjects to adults through an adult education center, and taught creative writing to 5th-8th graders at a summer camp.

A Little Bit About Me...

I am a first generation college graduate from Saint Mary's College of CA with a degree in Sociology/Anthropology which has allowed me to work with a variety of age groups in different socioeconomic backgrounds. I have extensive experience in writing research reports and tutoring experience in a variety of subjects from K-12.
I love making a difference in a child's life, whether it is academic or to get them organized to be more successful in the long run. I feel that I am patient and lack judgment on the child as each child is different and learns in different ways. After struggling with my academic career, I feel that my best way of helping the child is help them since I did not always have the resources available to succeed. I want them to feel that they can do anything.

A Little Bit About Me...

I would describe my teaching style in terms of the activity, belaying. Slack is given to the rope at times so that the climber may advance, or traverse, the face of the mountain. When the climber feels tired, or incapable, the rope needs tightening so the climber stays secure. If the climber falls from the face of the mountain the taught rope will prevent injury or possible demise. I tend to give my students slack when I feel they are advancing in terms of curriculum, yet once I notice their tendency to rest, or falter, I tighten my teaching approach by using more straightforward methods so that they are not confused, or do not wear themselves out with struggle. This is all so they reach the top of whatever mountain they choose to conquer.
My bachelor's degree in English serves as an example for the effort and time committed to education and a service to academia. I learned literar ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I am passionate, driven, funny, and determined. "I have a never-ending smile". I am a good listener. I have a strong ability to explain things in a way that will grasp the attention of someone non-versed in a certain subject. This is because I explain things in detail without making one feel inferior. Also, I like asking the tutee questions to engage the student and to ensure that the student understands the topic. I then ask the tutee to summarize what I have said after I explain something. This is an effective way to keep the student's attention. Overall, my goal is to tutor students so that they learn. Students are in good hands with me because I am driven to succeed.
As a graduate of UC Berkeley, I have a passion of helping others. During my freshman year in Calculus, I grasped the subject matter pretty well and volunteered to assist peers with homework problems. ... read more
