More About This Tutor...

I have always had a passion for teaching students who face challenges in their lives. My focus is on the student and his lifelong education above test scores. I know that all children can learn and work hard to connect with each of my students and to individualize their educational experience.
During college, I worked as a home-school Spanish, Language Arts and History teacher for students ages seven through fourteen. I volunteered in classrooms, tutored, and provided childcare for children with special needs. I studied Spanish and abroad. Upon graduation, I began my teaching career in L.A. where I taught kindergarten. After three years, I decided to teach abroad and moved to a small Chinese city where I taught preschool. Back in the U.S., I taught an intervention class for struggling readers in the second and third grades. I also tutored for students after school in their home ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I recently graduated, with honors and special recognition, from Merced Community College with an AA in Business Administration. I officially worked as a tutor at the college, tutoring upper level math. However, unofficially, I tutored many classmates during my two years at the college, in various subjects. Prior to returning to school, I worked as an Office Technician for the California Department of Corections, Parole Division. During my employment with the Parole Division, I trained Parole Agents and other clerical staff about processes and procedures.
I have an informal, friendly style to my tutoring methods. I feel that having a comfortable and friendly environment helps the learning process. I use clear and simple language to explain the material. I also feel it is extremely important to be a good listener, to be fully understanding of the students areas of strengths an ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have a passion for "trainng" in my current profession and I have realized that there are many different styles of teaching. Just as there are different teaching styles, there are a multitude of different learning styles. I find it necessary to speak openly and honestly with my trainee's so that I can evaluate the best possible training/teaching approach. I believe that the best teachers are those who recognize the needs of their students and are able to adapt and be flexible so that the student receives the best instruction possible.
As a communications supervisor for a public safety agency, I have very diverse work experience. I also act as a communications training officer and training administrator. Over the past several years (10+), I have trained one on one, numerous employees. In addition, I have conducted small group training sessions for five to twenty subordinates. ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Education has always been very important to me. I was a nanny all throughout college and discovered my love for teaching by helping the children I watched learn in a variety of exciting ways. I have a Bachelor's degree in Merchandising and a Minor in Marketing. I have a Multiple Subject Credential and have taught Second and Fourth grade. I have experience teaching English Language Learners as well as students with a variety of learning disabilities.
My philosophy is that all children can learn. They may not learn at the same rate or in the same way, but everyone is capable of learning. As a teacher, I take pride in helping students discover their love for learning by using manipulatives and other fun learning activities. I realize that some students are visual learners, while others are kinesthetic or auditory learners. I like to set realistic goals for the children and hel ... read more

I come from a family with a rich history in teaching. I have several cousins, aunts and great aunts who work and have worked as teachers in the State of California. Like them, it is my dream and goal to make a positive difference in the lives of the students I teach and tutor. I have achieved this in my teaching experience by providing a welcoming and accepting educational environment where students are actively involved in the learning process. Certain theorists have helped me gain a broad understanding of the learning experience, which has helped me develop my teaching style. Two theories who have influenced my teaching style are Vygotsky's theory in social cognition and Piaget’s theory of mental development. These two theories have influenced my approach to teaching and have helped me to understand the learning process and my student's potential.

Over my years of experience providing supplemental instruction to a diverse range of students, I have found that I possess a breadth of knowledge and interpersonal skill-sets that make me an effective teacher. I teach from the understanding that every student has a unique educational experience and that there is no one way to effectively get your point across. Utilizing patience, compassion, as well as a heightened sense of cultural literacy, I am able to help students grasp lessons and objectives that had been previously intangible. I believe that educators hold a great responsibility to their students, and take pride in the accomplishments realized by my students.
Throughout the course of my education, I have had the opportunity to work with many great instructors and professors; learning the qualities and characteristics of what comprises an effective teacher. I currently posses ... read more

My goal is to get my teaching credential in the next two years. I am convinced about my vocation of teaching. The idea of being part in the development of the children is my biggest motivation to become a teacher. I know that this job demands huge effort and comes with enormous responsibilities but it will be worth. I have worked with children. I think the best way to help them to improve in school is to make them feel confident in order to recognize their strengthnesses and their weaknesses and working in both.
I reached University level in Mexico before moving to the United States. Also, I got my AA degree from Merced Community College and transfered to CSU Fresno where I got my BA degree, both in Spanish major. I have taken Beginning Algebra, Intermediate and College Algebra among many other Math related classes such as Arithmetic, Geometry, and Calculus. I used to be a Bilingua ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I am firm, fair, and fun. I believe in building upon a student’s strengths and strengthening their weaknesses. I like to teach to the individual student’s learning style. I achieve this by using differentiated instruction, concentrating on the individual’s favorable learning style. I may incorporate manipulatives, music, motion, or visual aids. I believe the student should be active in the learning process and enjoy being engaged with the material to become proud of his/her work and take ownership of the learned material.
I began teaching in a second grade classroom. After receiving my Master’s Degree in Special Education, I taught at an inner city shelter facility. Shortly thereafter, I taught online for a cyber charter school and tutored at Huntington Learning Center. I have recently taught math at the junior high school level (for 5 years), while coaching softball and b ... read more

I have earned a bachelor degree in Communicative Disorders with emphasis in Speech & Language Pathology, Audiology, and Deaf Education. With this background I have an understanding of various modes of learning. I have learned unique ways to teach grammar and vocabulary important for reading and writing.

For the last 2 years I have had experience working with children through substitute teaching.
I enjoy working with all children. Given the right opportunity, I believe all children can learn. My goal is to help your child find his/her strength and build on his/her confidence to learn. I strive in finding unique ways to engage children and make learning fun.
