My comments on tutoring Musical : Music Theory and Musicianship

I have a total of 7 years of teaching experience. From 2010-2013, I worked as an enrichment counselor for the Pomona Unified School District. This job required me to create lesson plans and manage a class of 20 students for 3 hours a week, 5 days a week. From 2013-2015, I worked for the Chino Unified School District's AVID (Advancement Via Individual Determination) program. In this job, I offered life readiness and college readiness skills and tutored various common core subjects to groups of 5 Jr. high and high school students. I networked myself through the AVID program, and began my freelance tutoring services in math and science. I had to leave the AVID program in 2015 to pursue a very important job opportunity to work as a Music Assistant for a program called " The Music Immersion Experience" (MIE), located in San Gabriel. In this job, I assisted with classroom set up, tuning of ... read more

Musical is one of my top subjects! 2 Music Scholarship from high school. Music theory, harmony.

Worked in the graphics industry since before it became desktop publishing. Teaching and tutoring in the industry since 1996 from drum scanning to video editing to prepress. Job experience is in advertising, publishing major monthoy periodicals and sign design and prepress production. My forte is in production work first then design work. I enjoy teaching others as my students have gained more confidence in their work in digital graphics with solid professional work ethics.
Hands on with actual files. Encouraging the creative abilities that are within the student. Always keeping in mind that I once was where my students are now, not quite enough confidence in what they can accomplish. I use humor in a quick witted and non-personal way to get and keep the attention of my students and always keeping it clean.

My comments on tutoring Musical : I can teach all the fundamentals of music.

I am a skilled teacher able to inspire students to excel, while enjoying the experience of learning to play an instrument. Each lesson the student will play and learn a small section of: a solo song, technique exercise and duet. I have fun teaching my students-- I provide positive and practical encouragement.

More About This Tutor...

I believe that all learners are capable of high achievement if they receive appropriate support, and with a recent Master's Degree in Education, I am well-versed in current best practices. I have a student-centered approach that involves assessing student needs, interests, and learning style and developing learning activities and approaches to assigned material based on this information. I believe that learning should be fun and lifelong learners are made when students enjoy learning. Though I am very focused on using tutoring time productively, I also find ways of making learning fun and meaningful.
I have always been passionate about education and while still in school, I worked with America Reads, with a youth music program, as a private tutor, and as a creative writing TA. After graduating summa cum laude with a BA in English, I earned an MA in Education and a Teaching Credenti ... read more

I love working with elementary children and seeing their faces light up when they grasp a new concept. I am patient and understanding of each individual's learning pace and enjoy an interactive approach to learning. I have had the great opportunity to work with a special needs child as well as mainstream students which has given me the skills to be able cater to the needs of both.
I have a BA in History and am pursuing a teaching credential in elementary education. I work as a instructional aide to an autistic boy in a mainstream first grade classroom. In addition to assisting him in all his classwork I also help all the other students in all elementary subjects. We do language arts, reading, math, science, and social studies lessons everyday and I am very comfortable helping children understand all of these subjects.

A Little Bit About Me...

Since my oldest son began his first year of schooling, I became very interested in helping him as well as other students, reach their maximum capability. I volunteered at his elementary school for several years, tutoring students in all subjects from Kindergarten through sixth grade. I continued my education during this time and completed an Associates Degree in Child Development and a Bachelor Degree in Human Development. I also took two positions in the school district as an instructional aide and an afterschool tutor. Since then I have been a substitute teacher with 11 years of experience in multiple subjects for students in regular and mainstreamed classrooms as well as those with special needs, including severely handicap.
Since I have experince in many areas of education, especially in Resource Special Program, I understand how each child has different and learning styles as ... read more

My college studies have been in a variety of fields with the most concentration in the arts and social sciences. At the University Center for Developmental Disabilities I have gained one-on-one experience with children with autism and have learned and employed several techniques used in the Operant Conditioning model. As a Teacher Assistant, I have the responsibilities of setting goals, creating objectives for weekly sessions, and tracking and recording weekly progress. Such goals include, increasing expressive communication, decreasing specific inappropriate behaviors unique to each child, and improving academic skills such as reading, mathematics, and problem solving.
Through out my work with children diagnosed with autism I have learned and implemented B.F. Skinner's Operent Conditioning model. Although punishment is in the model, my specific teaching style only includes rein ... read more

As a teacher, my goal has always been to increase student achievement. I've taught 2nd, 3rd, 4th, and 6th grade. Although my concentration has been mostly in elementary education, I am highly competent in Mathematics specifically in Algebra, English, Linguistics, Writing, History, and Reading. I've also attended the Princeton Review seminars to prepare me for the SATs and GREs; and from that experience I've also prepared my students for the state exams and how to be better test takers. Overall, I understand the dynamics of education and I'm fully aware on how I can prepare our children to successfully face those challenges.
The art of teaching is contingent upon your audience, your students. I believe that as a teacher, it is critical that I adjust and modify my teaching style to match those of my students that I am teaching. I am a firm believer that the success of our stude ... read more

I have one year experience as an independent tutor for elementary school students. I have experience tutoring English at the middle and high school level, as well. I hold two Associate degrees from Riverside Community College, one in early childhood studies and one in speech communication. My Bachelors degree is from the University of California, Riverside in English. I work very well with children and I find they responds very well to my kindness and patience. I look forward to working with your child!
My teaching style is TLC. I believe that with positive reinforcement and kindness, a child responds better. A simple, "good try, but *this* would be even better" goes a long way with a child because they feel like they have given their best and are willing to learn more.

A Little Bit About Me...

I enjoy seeing children discover the world around them in their own ways. Therefore, I teach the importance of working things out until you understand it for yourself. Children will meet and often surpass any goal that is given to them if you show that you believe in them. I use a hands-on approach, as much as possible, with a problem-solving emphasis. I firmly believe that a child remembers things more if he is able to work it out for himself. As a result, I take more of a mentoring position the older the child is. It was in this way that my daughter received both an AA and an AS degree the night she received her high school diploma.
I began teaching at Hesperia Christian in 1995. First, I substituted and then taught part-time, two to four subjects a year: Advanced Math and Drama, 5 years; Biology, 1 year; and Advanced Drama, 3 years. When my son started seventh grade, I b ... read more
