Highly motivated, educated, and interested teacher will help

I have been teaching for over 17 years. Being very versatile, I have taught English, Ancient History, Medieval History, Computers, Art, and preschool. I started out teaching preschool and loved it. Then I went to a private Christian school (teaching completely for volunteer pay). From there, I decided that I love to help people learn. I went back to school. Students still will recognize me and I know that I made a difference in their life. It is a great reward to know that at that point in their life, I was supposed to be there.
I believe in individual learning styles and matching the teaching technique to the learning style. We all have strengths and weaknesses. It is important to learn how to capitalize on the strengths and build up the weakness.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have been drawn to teaching and working with youth for much of my life. Twenty Three years of varied teaching assignments have given me a wealth of education experiences to draw on.

I have taught K through 12 grades. I have a Bachelors Degree, Multisubject Clear Dredential, a Spanish Authorization and a CLAD endorsement. I have 39 credits above my Bachelors. In the last 19 years I taught ESL to Algebra and just about any other subject. I did a two week K-8 National Education Science Workshop with NASA in 2001. In college I tutored Cultural Geography and while living in West Covina I did Math tutoring for a friend. Teaching is my priority and feel that there is a need for good teachers.
I enjoy what I do. I love seeing students achieve their goals. The first thing I have always told my students was that there isn't anything you can't do if you want it bad enough. I went back to school at the age of 41 to get my degree. My goal is to provide the student with the best possible education, tempered with understanding and compassion. All children can learn and are c ... read more

Teaching is a reciprocal experience for the mentor and the mentee. I believe in fostering a learning environment for my students that is both participatory and relevant to a their individual learning style and interests. Working one-on-one with a child, adult, or in a small group is a privilege and affords the opportunity to do more than just teach; it is an important opportunity to help to empower someone to "learn how to learn." In my teaching, I believe that developing confidence, self-discipline, and appropriate learning tools is just as important as mastery of any particular subject. In any interaction with a student, I understand and value my role as a tutor, and I aim to inspire and to set a positive example.

A Little Bit About Me...

I am a creative, patient teacher. I know that everyone learns differently, so I try to come up with many different ways to explain a concept. I love to see the sudden understanding in a student's eyes when they finally understand a difficult concept. This is what makes teaching an addictive and highly fulfilling activity for me.
During my undergraduate years, I often found myself tutoring fellow students. Eventually I got a job working for the math and science tutoring center on campus. I tutored students in my own classes and others, and I also helped teach a vertebrate anatomy lab. I am currently a Master's student in biology, and while biology is my field, I am also an accomplished writer. I feel comfortable helping students in a variety of fields, especially basic mathematics, science, and writing.

With my background in social work and facilitation, I have learned that flexibility and patience are critical when teaching young people. Each session with a young person involves meeting the child where they arere at, honoring and praising what they do possess, and then moving forward to areas that may be a bit more challenging.
Through my education and experience in working with young people, I have been fortunate enough to utilize my communication skills to assist young people with emotional needs learn math and english in a creative but producitive way. I also have taught parents of high school students social and communication skills in an effort to positively communicate with their children.

A Little Bit About Me...

I love teaching. I also love learning. It has been my good fortune to teach, for many years, students of all ages. I find great fulfillment in the flow of knowledge and the dynamic learning experience. Every student is different in how they perceive the world and the laws of Nature that drive it. My approach to teaching is to take the student from where they are to a level of greater fullness - any discipline is an appropriate vehicle. The truth that knowledge is structured in consciousness is displayed when the student grows as a person as they grow in ownership of different expressions of knowledge – science, math, language, sociology, etc..
I am well-traveled internationally, and have nearly 30 years experience teaching and implementing management level development programs. I am comfortable presenting to groups of all sizes, and enjoy every opportunity to collaborate on program ... read more

As a student at Cal Poly San Luis Obispo I was interested in English education, especially in terms of helping students improving their reading and writing skills. I followed this interest by tutoring at the university writing lab, as well as doing frequent one-on-one tutor sessions with students in need. At the end of each quarter I conducted private, one-on-one counseling sessions with the goal of helping students pass Cal Poly's Graduation Writing Requirement. At Mills College, while taking a class on pedagogical theory, I became a teacher's assistant at Merrit College, where I regularly led group discussions.
I use a teaching paradigm that stresses the importance of student's needs and learning styles. Every student brings unique skills and perspectives to the classroom and tutor session, and because of this I have found that my teaching strategy changes per student and per ... read more

I am able to teach children of all ages and also am able to tailor my teaching style to the age I am teaching. Through encouragement and pointing in the correct direction instead of just giving an answer, I believe that the student learns best. Because I know all students learn at in different ways and at different paces, I am very patient in helping the student discover how best they learn and encourage them not to get upset if they do not “get it” right away. It believe it is my duty to help them not only get good grades but also to try and relate the subject being tutored into their lives.
As a teacher for six years and a physical therapy aide for one, I believe I have very good teaching skills. Not only did I have to teach students music and math, subjects I know students are uncomfortable with, I had to teach and motivate patients to do exercises while they were in pain. ... read more

My teaching style can best be described through the overall goals of the school I am currently working at: fostering self-esteem through respecting each child's diverse nature; cooperation and communication, students are active participates; global awareness, respecting diversity in all its forms; conflict resolution; encouraging and respecting imagination. Student's works are evaluated on individual bases; student's success is measured by their individual achievements, not based on the success of their peers. This year with 18 students I developed 5 different math groups; students are placed at a level where work will be challenging, but not overwhelming.
I have worked both at private and public middle schools. I've gained great respect for diversity in all it's wonderful forms. My experience has taught me that each child, not only deserves, but dreams of success. My belief tha ... read more

My teaching follows the experiential learning paradigm with a focus on utilizing the student’s inherent creative skills in order to relate information and pursue skill attainment and enhancement. The tutoring will be very “hands-on” for the student during the sessions, getting them to actively participate in a learning atmosphere by targeting multiple skill-sets, modes of learning, and intelligences. The top priority is providing an educational “experience,” rather than just relaying information, in order to help youth grow as humans, as well as students.

The student always comes first in my classroom. Although the curriculum and concepts are important, what is essential is encouraging students to succeed and creating a safe environment conducive to learning. By mutual respect and positive feedback, I am able to create a rapport with my students that allow them to take risks without fear of complete failure. Once students feel secure to take risks, they are able to learn and thrive gaining both confidence and academic skills.
