I believe in the education of the whole person

My studies in history have made me a terrific writer and researcher. I also have a great amount of experience in creative writing having taken many courses and working in talent agencies. Added to this I have worked in medical offices, elementary schools, coached sports, and am currently a part time law student. I am also a fiction writer and am the author of the amazon eBook series,Chronicles of Richard Spdafore. Please see blog for info. http://richardspadafore.blogspot.com/
I am extremely calm and teach at my students speed. Being dyslexic and not learning how to read or write until I was in 7th grade I am understanding and well-tempered to learning speeds. I also have strong verbal communication skills.

I try to model my own love of learning to my mentee.

Supportive, interactive, and inquisitive.
I’ve been exploring possible future careers for myself. Recently as I was tutoring one of my classmates with an English assignment, she mentioned to me that I am very easy-going when it comes to helping her learn and understand the assignments. I realized then, that I have always enjoyed tutoring my peers in English or Math. Not because I think I’m any better than them, but because I want to help them succeed. I offer to help tutor my peers after school. I started doing this since the Fall of 2022.

More About This Tutor...

In January of 2012, I gained teaching experience as a part-time English instructor for Korean exchange students (ages ranging from 13 to 17 years old). My responsibility for this job was to provide the students with appropriate exercises and assignments to assist them in improving their English reading skills. I also gave lessons in vocabulary and assignments to help them better understand the proper usage of the vocabulary words. These assignments also served to teach the students about American culture and traditions. In March of 2013, I received my MA in English from CSU, Bakersfield. I also published my first thesis. From May of 2013 to September of 2013, I gained some experience working with children (ages ranging from 6 to 22) with Autism and like disorders as an instructional aide.

Organized, encouraging,patient teacher with 10 years experie

Experience My working as a full time teacher for 10 years in my back home led me to get more experience in curriculum development, monitoring, evaluation and assessment. Working with both genders of different age groups gave me the opportunity to be more resourceful, tactful and responsive .And choosing a job related to my major provided the students with effective learning environment.It has also given me enough confidence to feel ready to work as a part/full time teacher.On top of all, the point that makes me distinguished among others is my capability to help the organization achieve their objectives as economically as possible, which is nowadays the main concern for organizations.

Read More About Robert T...

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.
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.

Humanities teacher/tutor

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 interest in the students for further study and research in a subject.
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, b ... read more

Tutoring in an easy-going way.

Very flexible teaching style.
I Tutored elementry students before and helped them get concepts in an easier way. Kids are harder to teach because they get bored and discouraged easily, whereas I try grabbing their attention and teach them in a fun way so that the students can learn it with a positive attitude which always leads to better results.
