The beginning of everything, I've got three younger sisters and there has always been a fair amount of helping out where they're concerned. I've babysat since I was twelve and for the past few years I've worked as a nanny. It's not exactly what you would expect for a tutor but I've been offering homework help in those areas for many years.

My passion is connecting what I know about cognition to design.

My comments on tutoring Psychology : Got an A in both a high school psych class and college.

I am currently in college, attending Chabot College. I was recently in a 4 year college down in Pomona, CA for a quarter, Cal Poly Pomona, and in a couple of years I will be transferring Cal Poly SLO. I passed my high school years with A's and B's and have also been passing my university/college classes with the same. In high school, I tutored kids for free and a lot of them were in grades above me. Near the end of high school I started teaching younger kids through care.com. I absolutely love tutoring and I think it's amazing to watch a child's mind grow right in front of you.
I decide how best the child learns before making a full plan of how to help them.

I have experience tutoring both math and science subjects to middle and high school students. I have the most experience tutoring Algebra (1-2 years), but I am also well-qualified to tutor science (especially Biology and Chemistry) and thoroughly enjoy those subjects. I've taught both my younger siblings and other students as well.

K-12 Successful Special Needs or English Language Tutor

My passion in life is teaching, where I can tutor students on a 1:1 basis! My teaching / tutoring experience includes classroom high school teaching, where my specialties were Math, Science, and English. Also, I tutored middle-schoolers in ESL, Social Studies, and Literature. I enjoy tutoring adukt learners on English and Citizenship. And finally, I have taught private piano lessons and music reading.
I present concepts in a variety of ways, such as: "hands on," visually, problem-solving, and inquiry-based. I reinforce the concepts each time we have a session. I tutor with a style that is accepting, positive, and where my student's feel comfortable enough to ask questions and become actively involved. All my students are successful learners who have fun learning!

A Little Bit About Me...

My "teaching style" changes depending on the needs of my students. In all cases, an initial assessment of both the academic level and the temperament of each student are necessary before I establish a particular style. Some students are comfortable with a quieter, more formal tutor, while others are successful with a more casual, animated tutor. In every situation, I look for opportunities to give positive reinforcement. For example, I usually warm-up with material the student feels relatively confident about, then add new or more challenging concepts, and end with the student feeling successful practicing on his or her own.
I have enjoyed teaching and tutoring a wide range of students in a vast array of different settings. Most recently, I have tutored reading to 4th graders at an elementary school, taught ESL and GED subjects to adults through an adult education center, an ... read more

I am a first generation college graduate from Saint Mary's College of CA with a degree in Sociology/Anthropology which has allowed me to work with a variety of age groups in different socioeconomic backgrounds. I have extensive experience in writing research reports and tutoring experience in a variety of subjects from K-12.
I love making a difference in a child's life, whether it is academic or to get them organized to be more successful in the long run. I feel that I am patient and lack judgment on the child as each child is different and learns in different ways. After struggling with my academic career, I feel that my best way of helping the child is help them since I did not always have the resources available to succeed. I want them to feel that they can do anything.

I earned a degree in Applied Mathematics and have always been "the go to guy" when my friends high school aged kids need help with their math homework. I hold my own teenagers to a rigorous standard with their studies.

A Little Bit About Me...

My doctoral dissertation examined college-level remedial reading and writing students in an effort to determine if adding online instruction to traditional instruction would improve student performance. My dissertation explored five hypotheses, and I found statistical significance in all five; thereby supporting the notion that adding online instruction to traditional instruction can improve student learning. While I was a doctoral student, I was also a Merit Scholar. In addition to my teaching, I have also tutored elementary, high school, and college students in reading, writing, and the understanding of Literature. I have also worked a great deal with ESL students.
My love of teaching is stimulated most when working with students who require the most assistance. Through my study in Educational Psychology, I have learned that all students have their own learning styles; I am able ... read more

I really like working with all sorts of people. There is no satisfaction greater than when I can see the spark in a person's eye when they comprehend materials they had not before. Everyone can learn any material they set their mind to if they have the motivation and the proper learning environment, and of course the right teacher. It is my desire to be a great teacher, educator, and mentor.
As a recent graduate from the University of California Riverside, I have earned a bachelors of science degree from the institution. During my time at UCR I developed a passion for the sciences which was taught by dedicated professors who served as my mentors. After being exposed to many professors who have a passion for teaching, I want to also give back to the community in this way.

I have spent 6 years teaching university-level German language courses and reading comprehension & writing courses. Before this, I spent 2 years as a volunteer instructor of bi-weekly English language classes in Romania and Moldova. In both contexts, I have taught interactive courses for students of various ages, educational levels, and cultural backgrounds. From my background in Linguistics, I understand how language 'works'. I have a quiver full of tools to use in explaining the linguistic nuances, which I use to explain the relationship between thought and language. Additionally, I have been involved in various research projects on language usage, language change, and language learning.
I approach instruction from the view that “teach[ing] a man to fish, will feed him for a lifetime”. I am committed to building on what my students bring with them, using this as a fulcrum on whic ... read more

As a graduate from a top-10 university and from graduate school, I know what it takes to get into a top program and succeed at a high level. In the past 5 year, I have been working as a consultant in the environmental industry, but want to take some time off now to explore other interest. I have previously tutored underprivileged teenage girls at the Florence Crittenton Center in Los Angeles for about one-year as a volunteer back in 2001. I found that experience enjoyable but never pursued it much further due to the demands of school at the time. Despite my lack of tutoring experience, I bring a wide scope of experience in the sciences and mathematics that would make me an outstanding tutor.
During the ups and downs of my undergraduate career, I became self-aware of the challenges that a student faces, especially within subjects that are not his/her strong suits. I believe ... read more

I have experience working with k-12. Along with employed tutoring, volunteering, and mentoring. I am qualified to tutor in English, math, and social studies because throughout my studies I have excelled in all three subjects and have tutored them also. I enjoy tutoring math because I get to constantly push the limits of how I can explain concepts. In English, I read lots off long books. And social studies, for the same reason as English, I enjoy reading books! currently for the wccsd, i tutor in math and science. i have guest spoken at a school for science and i have lead the discussion at the same school in math, grades 2-5. i am currently getting the substitute teaching credentials for the school district.
