A Little Bit About Me...

I excelled in both math and English tracks in high school, and when they ran out of math classes I could take, I started on computers. I put myself through college tutoring all levels of math from basic mathematics to advanced calcusus (though I never did like trig). I've been an award-winning professional website designer/developer for 16 years.

We are all given different strengths and weaknesses, different talents and challenges. I enjoy assessing these in each student as well as creating and executing an individualized plan of learning, guiding the student towards academic success. I love all children, am encouraging, patient, and thoughtful of each individual's needs. I consider a teacher's success synonymous with his/her student's success. I would be excited and privileged to help make a difference in your child's life.
I have always had a love for helping others learn, inspired especially by my three younger siblings who had learning disabilities. This, as well as my experience in high school assisting a teacher of the blind, motivated me to obtain a Special and Elementary Education BA degree in college. I have experience teaching a diverse range of students in many different situations: the classroom, a special ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I assess what their difficulty is. I may back track and ensure they understand the basic foundation of the principle they are learning, then move forward one step at a time, as they grasp each concept. Many times, they must understand step one, to complete step two, etc. I love to see people succeed. When a student finally understands a concept, it gives them, as well as me a feeling of great satisfaction.
Currently, I own my own Health Insurance Agency in Tehachapi. I am an Administrative/Management Professional with 20 years experience. I earned my Bachelor of Arts in Health Care Administration with a GPA of 3.46. My 11-year old daughter is a straight A student because I worked with her at an early age with studies that were at least 1 - 2 years beyond her current year. I knew she had the intellectual capacity to learn these, and it has paid off for her every year of school ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

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.
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.

More About This Tutor...

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.

A Little Bit About Me...

My philosophy of education is to be democratic. All students have a voice in decision making. All students can learn. I encourage individuality and independence. Students learn through examples, modeling, and setting high expectations. I teach through discovery and a constructivist approach. I believe all students can meet their potential if they are given the appropriate surroundings and learning experiences. Students will excel by learning new strategies and techniques. I work hard to make a difference in my students lives.
As long as I can remember, I have loved education. Beginning in my backyard with my cat and dog to my brothers and cousins, I have been a teacher. I grew up to be a teacher and enjoy teaching and tutoring children. I completed my first degree and received my teaching credential in 1990. Recently, I completed my second Masters degree in Special Education an ... read more
