A Little Bit About Me...

I have years worth of both instructing large-scale classes as well as one-on-one tutoring. After graduating from UCLA in 2005 with a Bachelor's in English, I taught English composition, speaking, and grammar in Beijing, China for almost two years. Since that time, I have also tutored high school-aged students in the areas of critical reading of literary texts, essay writing techniques, as well as creative writing.
I'm constantly asking questions of students and I'm never willing to accept "I don't know" as an answer. I encourage students to think independently and critically of their tasks at hand so they don't just excel when a tutor or some type of authority figure is in the room. I love working with kids and will typically take a serious but gentle approach to fostering skills.

Humanities teacher/tutor

My expertise is in humanities. I combine original writings from ancient (Plato, Aristotle, Sophocles, etc.) and more modern (Shakespeare, Dostoyevsky, Tolstoy, etc.) authors who have shaped our world. By utilizing the Socratic method, I promote critical thinking and engage the student in discussion. My ultimate goal is to help the student not only learn and master the subject, but also to inspire a love of learning and further desire to explore.
As a substitute teacher for social studies and English literature, in both honors and regular classes, I facilitated learning by following the lesson plans. Utilizing student-centered learning techniques, like asking questions and encouraging discussions, I helped create an atmosphere where learning became interesting and happened naturally. By promoting and stimulating guided discussions and critical thinking, I was able to inspire i ... read more

My comments on tutoring Shakespeare : I have a college level education (third year undergrad) in all English areas, however I feel that it would be most efficient to use my knowledge to tutor elementary and high school level English.

I have tutored many young students throughout my life, and have been tutored myself. I do find it easier to work with younger children; however, I am capable of assisting those of high school or college age students who are struggling. I have helped young children learn how to read, write, count, and tell time on an analog clock. Though I do not have strictly professional tutoring experience (I have never been paid for my services) I know how to identify student's learning style(s) and work with them a way that they will benefit from. I believe that children and adult education is extremely important, and I can also assist those of any age who would like to learn to read and write.

My comments on tutoring Shakespeare : Learn how to read, write, and love Shakespeare. Work with all major plays, poems, and extensive knowledge of current critical works on Shakespeare and Chaucer.

I think people learn best when they are in a supportive and exciting environment. Education should engage students on multiple levels. I emphasis critical thinking skills and multi-faceted learning rather than asking students to spit back information that they won't retain. Knowledge is power and I encourage students to think beyond their grades so that they can harness their own potential.
I have been a student for the last 10 years while working full time in the service industry. I am friendly, supportive, and positive! I have a life long love of learning that I hope to encourage in others as they reach their personal and educational goals. I attended Santiago Canyon Community College and received an Associated Arts degree in general education before I continued on to California State University Long Beach to receive a Bachelor's of Arts degree in English Literature. I am now a s ... read more

Shakespeare is one of my top subjects! Professional Shakespearean actor and director

I believe it is essential to communicate intelligently to young people without treating them like children. As a tutor, one develops a relationship. It is not a teacher-student situation. It's a more accomplished friend available to assist with a problem. Humor is essential and I use it often. Human beings learn more and absorb information easier when they are having fun.
I have been an actor, director and acting coach for over 30 years, working in theatres throughout California. I've also successfully run a professional theatre company in Southern California specializing in fully staged productions, workshops, and improvisational comedy performance. I have also been a creative writer and professional editor for almost two decades.
