Desktop Publishing is one of my top subjects! Expert+ I teach this at a college level. I use InDesign which is the industry standard. I have designed most everything possible: books, billboards, marketing materials, web sites.

I am passionate about teaching and spend most of my free time, creating curriculum that will excite and engage my students. I firmly believe that it is my responsibility to identify the strength of my students, as well as make them unafraid of their weaknesses. Only then, can a student and teacher begin a successful, working relationship. Student AND teacher must work at using all of our minds as much as we can. It is vital to become familiar with the way we think, especially our weak areas. Facing those and forging new pathways in the brain should be the goal of all of us.
I have taught college level design and desk top publishing classes since 2004. I have owned my own graphic studio since 1996: 509studio@gmail.com I have been teaching Math and Science to Middle School students since 2009. I presently tutor Math and Science. I have worked as a hospital lab technician.

My 5 years as a United States Marine established important core values such as tact, integrity, discipline, and commitment. I bring these values with me into the classroom. I believe that the success of a student depends more on their level of commitment than on inherent talent. However, learning must be an enjoyable experience in order for a strong commitment to be made. I am passionate about mathematics and the sciences, and this passion shows in my teaching style. Students recognize this passion, and it makes the learning experience fun. I am patient, open-minded, and innovative; so if a student is struggling with a particular topic, I find an alternative teaching approach which better suits their learning style. The success of my students is gratifying, to both student and teacher alike.
I have been a straight-A student my entire life and I recently graduated from the Universit ... read more

More About This Tutor...

As both a native of Chula Vista and a UCSD graduate, I have seen and experienced what it takes in order to grow up from a local teenager to a qualified adult ready to take on the world. I have attained a BA in Music, which actually required an additional understanding of math, physics, and computer science, as well. My tutoring experience includes work with students at both the high school and college levels. At the high school level, I have worked with students individually and in a group setting, whereas my work with college students has been primarily on an individual basis. The subjects I have tutored include Algebra, Geometry, Trigonometry, Pre-Calculus, Calculus, and Computer Science.
Often times, a person who is failing a subject might feel like a lost cause, that no one can help them. However, my belief is that all students are worth helping, that each individual has a righ ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

My most recent experience has been as an adjunct mathematics instructor at Southwestern College. I have also taught GED Mathematics classes for San Diego Community College District Continuing Education department. In addition, I have taught mathematics and science courses at the high school level and Computer Application Courses at both the college and continuing education levels.

I try to address individual differences in students' backgrounds and learning modalities. I am patient with students when they encounter difficulties and will repeat the instruction using a slightly different approach. I incorporate praise and recognition of progress in my instruction to provide e ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I tutored English and Humanities in the Academic Skills Center of my alma mater, Heritage University. I was a Teacher's Assistant at this university for two semesters and often took over for the class in place of the professor. I tutored primarily college students. My specialization was in Technical and Report Writing. I also currently tutor two minor students in a homeschool setting. One is ten years old and has significant reading delays, but has been gaining reading speed and comprehension with me. The other is 18 years old; I am helping her graduate from high school, so I plan all curriculum and tutor her in all subjects.
I am very student-centered. I believe that all students can learn any subject if the teaching style is adapted to the student's learning needs and prior experience. I further believe that learning should be fun for the student and to this end I constantly seek ... read more
