Learning is Always New

I teach how to learn, and encourage a love of learning, as well as teaching the subject. I base all my lessons on the value they allow the student to impart to society, both economically and ethically. I encourage students to welcome responsibility and empower themselves as learners.
I've taught creative writing to Japanese university students in English only (songs, stories and poetry) for two years, and ESL to all ages in Japanese society for 22 years. In America, I taught freshman public speaking, composition, and literature at the university level. My students have gone on to top-level universities, and placed first in prefectural level speech competitions.

Student-centered Tutor with lots of patience.

At this moment, I am a volunteer English/English as a Second Language Tutor at our community library. I tutor two elementary students in Reading and Writing two times a week. The younger student has a hard time focusing. I tried variety of things to help her. When we meet, I ask her first how was her day so I would know if she is tired or how long her attention span would be. After I try to ask her to read a small book that she picks. Then as she reads I try to assess her difficulty. I write down words she can’t read. When she is done, I ask her to write sentences or a story with the difficult words. Then she draws about it. I read the story back to her. I try to involve all her senses from visual to verbal in her learning process. The other student has a hard time in comprehension. I try to read the book with her and ask her questions about it. I get her excited. Most of the books she r ... read more

The best successes come after their greatest disappointments

I like to make my tutoring sessions productive by encouraging students to work hard to complete the taste in order to receive a reward in the form of a game or something they enjoy doing. I am very thorough in correcting assignments and make sure they fully understand the concept they are working on. I am very helpful in stimulating critical thinking for creative writing assignments.
I have experience with pre k to 8th grade tutoring in Math and English tutoring to help students prepare for Iolani and Punahou entrance exams through Dr. Takahashi Juku. I have also worked extensively with children from Japan who struggle with English. I can explain English words and grammar in Japanese and well as read and write Japanese .

I love working with children and adults!

I have experience in being a student in both business, math, science and language arts. I hired tutors for my children and I tutored my children but I have not begun to tudor myself. I am looking forward to the experience of tutoring and hope that each experience is fun and worth the money. If not, I will refund the money.
I am an informal teacher because I do not yet have the experience teaching in a formal setting accept for writing lesson plans for language arts. Otherwise, I am looking forward to working with adults and children on their studies because they need the help.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have tutored in San Francisco and worked through the SFUSD for over 5 years and also for the MDUSD for over 3 years. I have worked with small groups, large groups and with individual children. I ran my own home daycare center where we had educational learning time every day and also had a lot of activities throughout the day.
I like to find the way that each individual child learns. Everyone has a different way of learning. I am very engaging.

A Little Bit About Me...

My teaching style can be considered collaborative. In other words I work with adolescents and adults to understand the material presented. I need to find out how the approach the subject, then I try utlize my skills to work with them in their own style of learning as much as possible to help them understand the material. I do love collaborative teaching, because it gives fresh insights both for the student and myself as they learn the material

A Little Bit About Me...

While raising my kids, I came to understand that each child has a unique way of learning. Homeschooling my son gave an opportunity for trial and error during which I discovered an understanding of how students would learn best. My teaching style is based on the Flemings VARK model of learning--Visual, Auditory, Reading/Writing, and Tactile/Kinesthetic. I believe that each student has a unique learning style. An auditory learner may be geared towards tapes, lectures and discussions, whereas, a tactile/kinesthetic learner responds to models, movement, and maybe drawing. Once a student's learning style is discovered it will greatly enhance their learning experience.

I am currently finishing my first year in my graduate program, MEdT Program (Masters in Education Teaching). I have so far spent 12hrs a week in the classroom for the past year. I have taught several solo lessons a week while at Campbell High School and Ilima Intermediate. I am efficient in one-on-one teaching situations students who need extra attention and assistance. I specialize in Social Studies subjects, but am proficient in secondary level math (Algebra) and some natural science. I enjoy working with young learners very much and would love to tutor outside of the classroom setting.
My teaching style is based on an inquiry-based learning method. I do not give students answers. I ask them the right questions to get them to figure out the answer themselves. I also encourage the student to ask the right questions themselves as well. I am very patient and encouraging. I am a ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Based off my leadership experience, I believe the best way to help others improve in anything is to individualize their needs. In order to do this, it is best to understand the way others think and work from there. I will apply this idea to any student I may be able to help. By individualizing their needs, one may tap into the knowledge of students and open their minds to new ways of learning. I am patient, open-minded, and believe in positive reinforcement to support anyone. My top priority is not to give away answers but to share understanding and open-mindedness about different ways of thinking.
I have had many years of leadership experience. I believe this leadership experience allows me to work well with and lead others. In college, I participated in several cultural clubs on campus. I was the Fundraising Chairperson, Luau Food Chairperson, and eventually the President of t ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I love teaching all ages. I believe in making learning hands on and also making learning fun and interesting. I am extremely patient, friendly and motivational. I love to see a child's face light up when they finally understand something. I believe that some children just need a little extra time to learn a subject and that all it takes is a patient and motivating person to help them and I would like to be that person.
I have earned a BA from the State University of New York at Potsdam, majoring in history and writing. All throughout college I tutored various subjects which include history, writing, literature, earth science, and general biology. These experiences lead me to want to pursue my masters in education. I love teaching. In addition I have extensive skills in grammer and writing due to writing research papers and essays in various areas of study.
