I realize that each student learns differently and thus should be approached differently. My teaching style is to exert patience and positive reinforcement for each style of learning. I believe that tutoring is the missing link in a child's education, and that providing structure and follow up is the best method.
I began tutoring as a volunteer in High School. I have since graduated Magna Cum Laude in less then 4 years earning two bachelor degrees in Political Science and Philosophy. I have recently finished my first year of law school in the top 30% of the class. My experience in Political Science, Philosophy, and law have set me apart in grammar, punctuation, and both formal and creative writing. I have most recently privately tutored a high school student in English, Literature, and Writing.

A Little Bit About Me...

I come from a family of teachers and, like my parents, I enjoy helping others and reaching the end goal of aiding a student in attaining their own aspirations both long and short term. I understand the difficulties and frustrations that often accompany learning, however I believe that with the right positive reinforcements all students can overcome any hurdle and achieve academic success. In addition, these academic success are the kindling to creating a growing fire of self-motivation which can last a lifetime. I want to help all students in anyway possible to find the academic switch that inspires them to continue to learn and better themselves.

I have experience working with students of all ages and I thoroughly enjoy the challenge each person brings. I treat each student according to his/her needs and I look for the most effective ways he/she learns. I ask the student questions that lead to his/her discovery of the process, steps and answer to the problem. With this method the student has the satisfaction of resolving the problem, encourages him/her to continue on to more difficult ones, and gives him/her the confidence to do his/her best!
As a Summa Cum Laude graduate, I have always valued academics and education. I began to share my drive for excellence through tutoring in high school.

I love to teach, there is nothing more self rewarding then helping a person who is struggling to achieve something and helping them with their goals.

A Little Bit About Me...

My teaching style involves fun and an active student. Self-discovery is the best way to learn and retain knowledge. I see myself as the facilitator; I give my students the tools, so they can figure out problems on their own and become more self-reliant. I want learning to be fun, involving games, healthy competition and active learning, so students become life long learners. Having said that, I have high expectations for students' abilities and behavior. I have always been able to build rapport and a mutual respect with students of all ages and backgrounds. That trust makes the learning environment more impactful.

A Little Bit About Me...

My style of teaching is what I would call "upbeat". I like to involve the students so as to allow them an opportunity to feel they are part of the class. Lectures can lead to students losing interest. I incorporate a touch of humor, and later quiz the students on their lessons. Reinforcment of the material is important--meaning that I have a follow-up session to see if material is retained. Most importantly, I provide encouragement. Many of the students I worked with in China would become frustrated because of their english level--sometimes consisting of a low level. I excercised patience as well. For the most part, I worked with high-school students--with occasional college students who were seeking improved english abilities to enter college in this country. I honestly feel I went above and beyond the call of duty to serve my students as best as I could.

In my past work experience in law enforcement and the military I came to understand the necessity of possessing good writing skills. I have earned a BA in English which has enabled me to not only improve my own writing skills, but to learn the elements of good writing in order to teach them to others. I have been teaching at the college level for almost two years and one of those years has been teaching college composition.
I absolutely love teaching and thrive on the interaction with my students. I approach teaching on a personal level by relating individually to my students. I make the effort to learn what each student needs as far as learning style and interaction and try to approach each student in that manner. I believe all students are capable of great success with the proper encouragement. The challenge for an educator is to determine the proper encouragement for each ... read more

I taught as a substitute teacher in New Jersey for 3 years before moving to California. I have a multiple subjects credential from New Jersey. I taught at all grade levels and all subjects including high school students. I have been a substitute teacher in California for the past 8 years. I have multiple subjects credential in California. I taught all grade levels and all subjects.
I am patient with students and encourage them to learn at their own pace. Students learn at a different rates and have different comprehension abilities. Some are able to absorb a material faster than others. But they will all learn the subject matter if given the chance and encouragement and by introducing the subject/explaining it in different ways with patience and concern.
