K-12 Successful Special Needs or English Language Tutor

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!
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.

My comments on tutoring GED : I have spent a summer teaching a GED preparatory course and have privately tutored several students in their preparation for the GED test.

I have been a dynamic, successful elementary, middle and high school teacher as well as college instructor of Art, English, French and History for many years. I also taught in a two way language immersion school ( English and Spanish) for six years so I can teach Beginning and Intermediate levels of Spanish. While teaching, I have always taken courses in the best practices of teaching as well as courses in subject matter content. I have tutored people of all ages, learning styles and needs in a range of subject matter, including testing; I ascertain how each student learns best to develop the most fitting, effective teaching strategies for them. I am considered a Master teacher as I train other teachers about best practices and have also been recognized as "Teacher of the Year.”
I believe learning should always be engaging and meaningful. It is critical to address individual studen ... read more

I take a look at what the existing instruction materials are attempting to convey and I add to that or expound on that. I use Google extensively to look for similar examples to the problems the student might be having. I believe that it is best to solve any given problem in at least two different ways if you really want to get some insight. It also helps in either verifying your answer or checking if you are in the ballpark.
I have an undergraduate degree in Aerospace Engineering. I have a Masters in Systems Engineering. I have tutored one person in statistics, algebra, analytical geometry and elementary functions for one year. She has maintained an “A” average during that time.

A Little Bit About Me...

After graduating cum laude from the University of Oregon with a B.A. in English, I earned an M.A. in the Teaching of English from Stanford University along with a Single Subject Credential in English/Language Arts. I have taught English at the middle and high school level at high-achieving public schools in various parts of the Bay Area. I am particularly skilled at teaching students to construct persuasive, expository, and analytical essays, and at teaching students the fundamentals of grammar, mechanics, and usage. I am also available to assist in preparing for standardized tests such as the CAHSEE and the SAT.
I believe that every student has a unique learning style and that it is my job as a teacher or tutor to discover which instructional methods work best for each particular student. I have a naturally patient and supportive demeanor and work hard to build rapport with studen ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I have worked as a tutor for about 6 years and worked full time as the designated class room teacher, as a High School Math teacher for 2 years. Occasionally, I work as a substitute teacher. Over time, I have acquired a wealth of teaching experience. The areas I have taught/tutored in are Algebra, Geometry, Middle School Science and Elementary School English Language Arts. During my occupation as a full time Math teacher, we were required to attend regular Math trainings and workshops. As a result, I developed excellent teaching skills, not only in content matter competency but also in teaching style.
My teaching style varies depending on the number of students taught and the personality of the students. Also, teaching style is also influenced by the subject taught. For example, Mathematics is a subject that can very easily be taught by incorporating games which catch the attent ... read more

"No one will care what you know until they know that you care." I have great enthusiasm and passion for teaching and I make great connections with students. I know all people are capable of change and growth. I strive to help create life-long learners who are motivated to grow. My instruction and coaching techniques are very user friendly, and have been very successful for high academic achievers as well as students who struggle with academics and are very resistant to anything that has to do with school.
As a high school teacher for 13 years, I have had a profound impact on the academic and personal success of a great majority of my students. I have won many "inspirational teacher awards" and have been identified by many of my students as the teacher most responsible for their success. They have said that I have made learning interesting, fun, and rewarding for them because I ... read more

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, and taught creative writing to 5th-8th graders at a summer camp. I have also tutored Japanese-speaking businessmen in English as well as American culture, and tutored a family from Hong-Kong in English communication, writing, and college preparation. I am also a former professional clown and have over 13 years experience working closely with children. Indeed, I also have my own thriving 9 and 12 year old children who lovingly call me "English Teacher" when they want help with their Language Arts and Social Studies homework.

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.

A Little Bit About Me...

As both a graduate student in education as well as a credentialed teacher focusing on literacy, elementary and secondary basic skills, I firmly believe that strong language skills are the foundation of a successful academic career. I also have years of experience as a literacy tutor and substitute teacher and have had the opportunity and privilege to work with learners from an array of demographics and backgrounds, including English as second language learners and first generation high school graduates.
One of the reasons I work as a tutor is because of the freedom it gives me to address each learner’s needs individually; this means not only working with them on issues such as mechanics, grammar and organization, but on what I refer to as the academic “soft skills” such as time management, note taking and various strategies to analyze and articulate an argument as well. I am pass ... read more
