A Little Bit About Me...

I have a lot of experience not only in fields that you may need help learning, but I also spent time during college tutoring classmates as I was in the class and developed a style to help students learn quickly and also reinforce the concepts. I understand the student to determine the best learning style for you and I make the transformation teaching you the material in an effective manner.
I first find out your true objective for learning the material. Is it a requirement and not in your field of study so you just want to pass the class or is this a part of your passion or career and really want to know the nuts and bolts of the subject. I will adjust accordingly and make out a plan. I will also figure out the best way to teach you the material and from there we will have a plan to accomplish the targeted goal.

More About This Tutor...

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 understand the subject. This type of teaching would be done with movies, drawing or acting out the situation. In my teaching, I try to use all methods available to me to help the students learn and to use their creativity. I especially try to get students to work in groups and to share their work with each other. I find that pier groups provide the best help in understanding the subject matter. The classroom should be a learning place of activities and fun.
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 ... read more

As a recent graduate from University of California- Santa Barbara, I am eager to put my acquired skills and knowledge to use. I have earned a bachelor's degree in Global and International studies with an emphasis in Latin America, which has provided me with the opportunity to understand many different cultures and value the importance of education. I always excelled in writing and research classes, earning high marks on term papers and exams. I volunteered in a local kindergarten class 5 hours a week. I helped coordinate various learning labs, that enabled the children to explore and learn new things.
I believe that education is the ultimate tool in life, that every person should have access to. I teach with passion, and truly believe that each child has the ability to achieve anything with hard work and determination. I understand that each person has a different way of learn ... read more

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 en ... read more

My goal is to help prepare students to meet the challenges of the new millennium. I realize technology is, and will continue to be, a driving force in workplaces, communities, and personal lives; I want to reinforce the learning skills of students and bring them to the twenty-first century; It is important for students to receive a solid education. Students must actively learn skills that will help them be successful learners in the future; and as a tutor I’m aware of and sensitive to a students individual needs and as a consequence help students unlock their full potential.
My areas of expertise include Spanish, Math and English Language Arts; though, I have acquired experience providing 1- on -1 and in-home academic tutoring to students from grades k-12th in all subject areas. I have extensive knowledge, and skills working as a tutor for students under the No Child Left Behind ... read more

The world would be a boring place if all of its people were the same. I believe each individual is socially, academically, emotionally, cognitively, and creatively developed differently from others. Some children perform better in social relationships than at written language and this is where people like me come handy to improve and help develop some of these academic domains. I believe people learn through direct experience and that an educator should focus on an individual’s needs, so a constructivist approach is my teaching style. I am patient, a good listener, who embraces diversity and is attentive.
Maintaining a good GPA was something extremely important to me during my academic years both in high school and in college. This is why I believe that everyone should have the opportunity and access to improve a certain academic area through the help of competent tutors like mysel ... read more

I am a recent graduate of California State University San Bernardino. I have a BA in Business Administration with a concentration in Finance. In my previous jobs I have been quickly promoted to a trainer because of my desire to teach. I am enrolled in a credential program through CSUF. In this program I am learning how to be an effective teacher.

Tutoring is a profession which I have enjoyed for over nine years, often while teaching in the classroom or online, concurrently. I was able to teach multi-subjects to college students because I excelled in all subjects myself, receiving numerous scholarship awards and honors. I chose after school tutoring as my extra duty assignment while teaching middle school and high school. I enjoy tutoring students because I experience the moment of “Ah ha, now I get it!” with them.
I am eclectic in my approaches towards teaching, ranging from Montessori and Classroom Without Walls, to Behaviorist and Cognitive approaches. I use what is observable, measurable, and works. I am always prepared to pull a rabbit out of my hat, and I always prepare additional alternative lesson plans in case an approach does not seem doable. I begin tutor sessions with interviews to assess goals. The ultimate goa ... read more

Find out what level the student is at, what their interest are, what the like about learning or hate about learning and go from their. As each person is different and each person learns in their own way. Learning is not hard, finding out how to learn is.
As a Merchant Marine and Chief Steward I have taught, tutored, or mentor kids of all ages and backgrounds. My passion when teaching is to try and breakdown the subject to it's most basic level. A level that the person being taught can understand. Having work with kids from different ethnic and educational backgrounds I find this to be very affective and productive. Also, not having been a great student in high school with dyslexia, I have been able to over come these short comings and graduate from collage with honors.

A Little Bit About Me...

I am eager to help students get through school with less stress and more confidence in their learning abilities. Any student can succeed in education and life goals with top reading skills, so I concentrate on moving them through difficult assignments and future goals. Am a good communicator and empathetic instructor. Background, school and current desires, I take all into consideration on an individual basis.
I have been working with writers and self-publishing authors for ten years. Students I tutor in English, writing and test preparation are from junior high to college level. Am especially good with bi-cultural background students who want to learn, but know more than their parents or peers at school. Have assisted students improving grades from mediocre to B+ or A level with consistent help and student commitment.

A Little Bit About Me...

I am a recent graduate of California State University San Marcos. I earned a BS in Mathematics and graduated cum laude. During the last two years of my education I was tutoring at the Math Lab at Cal State San Marcos which led me to become certified as a Level 3 CRLA tutor. Also for the last two years, I had been working for a professor grading papers and helping out in the classroom. Since I have been working with a wide variety of students, I am now more aware of different learning skills and can accommodate more students.
I love being able to share my knowledge, especially with students who are still in high school. I have learned how to explain math using pictures, words, examples, songs, and many other ways. All students are able to learn, but the process is different for each individual. Once I find out how a student learns best, I am able to create an environment wher ... read more
