I started substitute teaching in 1983 while I was working on my Master's Degree at California State University, Long Beach. I have been a substitute teacher in Long Beach, Santa Barbara, Glendale, and Palm Springs. I have had experience as a long term substitute in Senior English for a year at Palm Springs High School, also in Palm Springs, I did six months as a Special Education teacher at Cree Middle School. While I was in Glendale, I worked a year at Allen Continuation High School teaching English and Social Studies. I have had extensive experience preparing lesson plans, grading papers, helping students understand subject matter and providing parents with information about their child's work in class. All students can learn, but in different ways. I, for one, learn best by watching how something is done. I can read about it, or hear a lecture about it, but seeing it helps me under

I enjoy mentoring others and giving them the benefit of my knowledge and skills. I have always had a "thirst" for knowledge and enjoy sharing with others. I believe that learning is best accomplished through gaining an ability to analyze a problem logically and following a proscribed methodology to solving problems. I received a very basic but thorough education and believe that if we focus on giving students solid skills that we can then stimulate creativity and investigation. We need to ensure that each student gains the confidence that he/she can learn and grow and succeed. I have spent all of my career in Information Technology, in positions from programmer to Vice President. In most of my projects, I've mentored and tutored others in many different areas. I have outstanding written and verbal communications skills. I've taught in Jr/Sr high schools (math) and also in Communit

My teaching style is modeled after the Princeton Method, which is the way that I was taught to teach tennis. The Princeton method focuses on the positive. So instead of saying "don't skip the hesitation for a period mark", I would say "remember to hesitate in between sentences". I started teaching tennis to juniors at the age of 16. I enjoyed that very much. For close to 10 years I taught at a country club in Connecticut. During my time there I did not focus on winning, but our record went from 0-7 to 7-0. I attribute this to the power of positive teaching. After I completed Loyola University MD, I went into B2B Corporate sales, where I was successful, but my passion remained with teaching. Recently I was a PE Coach at a school, and I started an after school program for tennis and golf for the children.

While I pride myself on being approachable, patient and easy going, I tend to approach teaching in a methodical manner. I believe that student's time and attention is very valuable, and warrants preparation and thoroughness. My initial approach is always to first assess a student's needs, goals, learning style, and accomplishments. Next, I pick a strategy to approach the needs of the student. For example, I might select a straight-forward text or document from which I could teach loosely, such as the book "With Good Reason". (It is an excellent text on argumentative methods.) Editing and reworking methods eventually becomes paramount. I am available to help students electronically. This is a style currently 'in vogue' at my university, espoused by my professors. Students can really benefit from the focused attention it can provide. I am a natural teacher, and my experiences

I am a retired teacher, middle school, high school and district office administrator. I have worked with supplemental providers in my past position as Director of Curriculum and Instruction (Ed. Services). I presently sub for Palm Springs Unified in a k-12 capacity. I can tutor in all elementary and middle school subjects and in math through high school geometry. I am very skilled at the writing process, reading process and using effective instructional practices. I am a hands on conceptual style learner and like to teach the same way, I believe that students that can see the "why" can understand and retain what they learn. Engaging learners by using hands on activites can facilitate the learning process.

I have always had a deep passion for teaching others. Knowledge is power. It means a better job, a better understanding of the world we live in and it makes for better relationships. My desire is to empower people to help bring out the best in them. I am patient, understanding, and am able to teach students in a simplified way. Nothing is more rewarding than when my students eyes light up when they grasp deep concepts, especially when it is something they have struggled with for years. That is very rewarding to both student and teacher. I am proud to say that I was able to graduate "Summa Cum Laude" with a grade point average of 4.0 during my Masters and Doctorate college years and "Magna Cum Laude" during my bachelor year. I have gained a greater understanding of English,along with how to write essays, outlines, and how to do an extensive amount of research. Over the last 20 years, I ha

My vision and goal in working in education is to help students who are struggling and in need of help. These students can so often be overlooked or dismissed as failures, but I believe that all students have the capability to reach their goals. I strive to create a relationship with the student in which the tutoring creates an environment conducive to a common goal that we can share that will guide us to improving the student's life. Educating students and helping them succeed has been a passion of mine for ten years now, both in the classroom and in one-on-one situations. I began tutoring in high school as a volunteer with the California Scholarship Federation, and I continued through college and beyond with various companies in California. I have tutored and taught elementary, junior high, and high school students Enlish and Math. I completed high school by getting a four on the Calcul

After I got my BA and Illinois secondary school certification, I pursued my MFA in Playwriting at the University of Utah. I forged a career as a writer and journalist. My liberal education in history and the arts deeply benefited me. Since 1990, I've been a full-time editor for several daily newspapers and magazines, and I continue a profitable freelance writing career. I taught for Loyola University, New Orleans, and two business colleges, and currently teach the composition, computer applications, and speech requirements for a local branch of Kaplan University -- a private business school. At Loyola University, as director of the Writing Lab, I used peer tutoring and computers to assist students in the composition classes. I developed a love for tutoring and remediation -- for the student who needs one-on-one instruction. I allow the student to be successful. Every lesson must end in s
