More About This Tutor...

I have grown up around my cousins' children and that has truly inspired me to go into teaching. Through my courses I have personally worked with different learning styles and enjoy the challenge of teaching them a way to see math through their own eyes. There are so many different ways to teach math and I am grateful to have had a wonderful math teacher in college that concentrated on the different way you can teach the same subject matter. I have always enjoyed working with children and am very considerate and patient. I am determined to have them achieve!
As a Liberal Studies major at California State University of Bakersfield, the majority of the classes were aimed at how to teach children and how to teach different learning types. Especially as a math concentration, I took many math courses and above knowing many techniques on teaching math, I truly understand it and enjoy it. ... read more

More About This Tutor...

Throughout my college years I have been employed by two different after school programs for a combined amount of 6 years tutoring/teaching in public school after school programs. (Grades K-6) I also spent 2 months teaching full time 3rd and 4th grade after college prior to unfortunately being laid off due to financial losses in the school. I also tutored English in college through an Advanced English class I was placed in.
I have a passion and calling for working with children. From the time I was a child, I knew this is what I was meant to do. I believe children are the hope of our country, and that every child is capable of learning and expanding their knowledge. Knowledge is power, and if a child is given the proper encouragement and motivation they can and will succeed. I consider it an amazing privilege to be an educator and make a difference in the lives of my students.

I tutored philosophy students for a year while in college. I earned a master's degree in early childhood education and taught second grade for two years. I also was a substitute teacher for grades K-8th. Currently, I am a motivational speaker and a mentor through United We Mentor.
My teaching style involves a positive approach. I believe students learn best in an environment that is both positive and challenging. Positive feedback is essential because students are encouraged to take risks and solve problems. A challenging classroom teaches critical thinking skills that are necessary for the global market.

I love being a teacher! I believe all children can learn but some need different approaches. I am always trying different ways to reach my students. I care about every student that comes into my classroom. I have very high expectations for all of my students. I am always exploring new ways to teach. I know I have made a difference in many of my students. Students that I have had in the past always tell me I am very fair, respectful, kind, and demanding. I expect that all of my students to try their best. I feel that every child will be successful in some special area. I never give up on any student. I also feel that positive reinforcement is extremely important.
I have been teaching for the past 15 years. I have taught 3rd for over 12 years. I have also taught 2nd, 7th, and 8th grade. I had received a BA in Sociology from the University of Denver. I furthered my educati ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have six years experience, working in the LAUSD system. I have tutoring experience with the Tutors of the Inland Empire and Basic Educational Services. I enjoy teaching and presenting a challenge to students. I want to share my knowledge. Teaching is my passion. I am well versed in multiple subjects including literature and ,many sciences and history.
I love to motivate and present information, that is unique. For example, what note or bill is the lowest denomination ever printed and has the portrait of George Washington on it? If you gave me the obvious answer of the one-dollar bill, than that would be the wrong answer. The correct answere is the three-cent note printed in 1862. The bill is still legal tender, although it is worth a lot more as a collector's item. I make my students think. For example, what would happen to you, if you took off your spacesuit on Mars? I'm run ... read more

I have earned a bachelors degree in Psychology, passed the CBEST, and have about four years of work experience as a tutor. I tutored students, ranging from grades K-12, in various subjects, but mainly in Mathematics and Language Arts/Reading. Also, in a previous position, I managed after-school tutoring programs for both elementary and junior high schools at the school site, in-home, and public location/library.
Education is extremely important to me. As an educator, I think it is important to not only share one's knowledge, but to be able to adapt one's teaching style for each student. Through my experience, I know it is important to have patience and be open-minded with my students. I enjoy tutoring and being a positive role model to all my students.

I use a white board when teach people because I find people get less stressed out when working with a problem if there is less scribbles on the paper. I also have a strong belief that it only takes one good example to understand the problem so I give the people I tutor one really good generic example of the topic and tell them to copy it down and refer to that example often and I find that it helps a lot.
I have a variety of degrees and specialties but math is my strong suite. I have tutored friends with great results. I have helped people in math classes ranging from simple math to statistics and even college level math. I love math and English and I also love working with people of all ages and teaching them to love math as well. I feel that teachers make things more complicated than they need to be and I am great at simplifying explanations for people.

A Little Bit About Me...

As a Pre-medical student, studying Neuroscience, I aspire to one day become a neurosurgeon. In my quest, I’ve decided first—to become a surgical technologist. I’ve served as an ST on annual surgical missions to the Philippines and have dedicated two-years to a clinical internship at Valley Presbyterian Hospital. As I advanced my education in Neuroscience I became responsible for biweekly presentations on various topics such as neurogenesis in Alzheimer’s disease, and neuroanatomical correlates in functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging. I was a Subject Area Tutor for Organic Chemistry and Biology, as well as a Surgical Technology Instructor at Glendale Career College.
Recently I was asked to give a Guest Lecture on Neuroanatomy at Everest College. I wanted to take students on a ride through the nervous system, into subcortical structures, down the spinal cord to synapse onto muscles ... read more

I recently graduated from U.C. Berkeley, where I earned a BA in Philosophy with a minor in English literature. For three years I worked as a freelance tutor. I honed my skills tutoring essay writing, English, U.S. History, basic economics, and Algebra 1 and 2.  I have also tutored for several AP courses, all of which I personally received a score of '5': AP English,  AP Art History, AP European History, and AP U.S. History. I also have experience tutoring for the SAT, especially in the verbal portion of the exam. For two years I worked as an editor of a noted journal of philosophy, which taught me to constructively criticize essays and gave me a mastery over English grammar. Currently, I tutor young learners in Echo Park.
I enjoy working with all kinds of students, and especially with high schoolers gearing up to go to college. I am punctual, patient, and extremely clear in my comm ... read more

I have thoroughly enjoyed teaching throughout my entire life. I put myself through Cal State Los Angeles, earning a Multiple Subject Credential, Special Ed. Credential, and a Reading/Language Arts Specialist Credential. I have worked and tutored many 'At Risk' students, and pupils with behavioral issues. I am a very patient person, very compassionate, and have a very strong sense of fair play. I am a very dependable individual, and feel that I could be a great asset to your organization.
I have a very structured classroom, yet I believe in 'teachable moments'. I work with the children 'where they are', and make progress accordingly. I believe in positive reinforcement, and I am very sincere with compliments. I've had much experience teaching any subject to any age K-12. I consider each pupil an individual, and provide one on one instruction to each and every student. I bel ... read more

I really like to help people in general, that's the reason why I became a Resident Assistant. As a Resident Assistant I have aided many students with problems they may have in their first year of college, including tutoring them in subjects i am proficient in. I like to see people grow and learn over which is achieved by aiding a person in discovering and cultivating various talents.
My tutoring experience isn't really too official. I mostly just help people with College Algebra around the dorms. I am pretty good with teaching and helping with math, and could probably do it at a High School level. Not actually having a BS probably will just limit me to high school tutoring. With the people skills I have developed working as an Resident Assistant I know I can be effective in helping high school students in math, biology, french, and chemistry.

I received a BA in sociology from UCLA and an MA in Educational FoundatuinI taught middle school science, math, and social science for twenty years. In addition , I taught several years of algebra I during summer school at the high school level. For 15 years, I have tutored students individally, mostly in math (basic, algebra I and IIan geometry) from the elementary to high level. My teaching and tutoring experience has exposed me to students of differing learning modalities, skill competencies and social backgrounds.
My teaching style uses instructional strategies that align with each student's learning modality, so I can teach in a way, that will likely help learn concert he/she learns best with. I assess the student's competency level and use curriculum accordingly. I praise students for when they achieve their objectives. I make lessons relevant to a student's everyday lif ... read more

Throughout my teaching career I have learned that it is very important to understand how a child learns, their strengths, and developmental needs and adapt my teaching style accordingly. In my years of teaching I have worked with children from different backgrounds, various learning abilities, and styles. Working with this population has allowed me to adapt my teaching style according to the strengths and needs of each individual student, use assessments to drive instruction, and create extension lessons to enhance student learning. Given my experience, I am able to read a Content Standard and create an accessible lesson plan for whole group and individual learners throughout grades K-8.
I graduated with a Bachelor's Degree in Liberal Studies and Preliminary Multiple Subject Credential from California State University, Northridge. In the last 5 ½ years I’ve worked with a diverse g ... read more
