Composition is one of my top subjects!

I have worked as an English, Math, and Science tutor at both the undergraduate and graduate level for the past 7 years. Within that time, I have tutored countless students that have shown noticeable improvement in their test scores and their understanding of class material. As an undergraduate at Victor Valley College, I was part of the Model United Nations program, the Phi Theta Kappa Honor Society, and the Writing Center. I currently work as a tutor at CSU San Bernardino, where I assist students with writing assignments from a wide variety of disciplines. As a senior/graduate level pre-medical biology major, I am highly experienced with topics ranging from Cellular Respiration to Neuroscience. I also have hundreds of hours of plant, animal, cellular, and outdoor/ecological lab experience.

?I enjoy relating with children and young people. Children face challenges in the learning process and there’s no shame in having someone assisting them over the hurdles. I would do my outmost to connect with your child so that I can understand how he or she reasons, and give the individual attention that can make a difference in the child’s academic success. As a mother I have studied many helpful books and taken several seminars to assist me in understanding the minds and potentials of young people.
?I have a BA degree with a minor in English. These courses were done in French. I also studied Hebrew and Greek. During these studies I had many research papers and a thesis to do. Often I assisted several students in English Grammar during the past four years of school. In the past I took several courses on Family Life from a university in Michigan because of my keen int ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

My diverse educational and professional background has enabled me to be able to apply very practical applications to seemingly comlex mathmatical learning steps. As a manager/owner of several small businesses over my career, I have had to help develop employees into more productive workers by helping them with basic educational tools and life skills. My journalism experience, coupled with a strong business acumen and a Certified Financial Planner designation affords me a vast tool kit from which relate to my students.
I enjoy the challenge of teaching and coaching. Finding a level of communication, exploring the deficiency and then applying practical examples to improve the internal understanding of the concepts is my approach to one on one tutoring.

I have dedicated my time over the past twelve years to community service, particularly with children and young adults. As a Model Coordinator for Pure Fashion, a Catholic-based program sponsored by Regnum Christi, I assisted in the development of seventy Pure Fashion models, ranging in age from 14 to 18, to become confident and competent leaders in their communities guided by faith and with respect for human dignity. As a classroom aide for School, Inc., I taught 4th grade students the basics of personal finance and entrepreneurship. I also developed lesson plans to correspond with teaching sessions.

It is my personal and professional goal to achieve such lasting affects by facilitating an inclusive student centered learning environment that acknowledges students' personal, cultural, and academic interests.

I love to teach with all my heart. I enjoy teaching children, teenagers, and adults and having the feeling that they were able to learn something new. Plato once stated, “The direction in which education starts a man will determine his future in life.” If children start out with a solid education, it sets them on a course for success. I believe that all students have the potential to become great, with a little help from the people around them. I am patient and nurturing and I hope that i will become a good role model for my students, drawing out the potential they naturally have inside of themselves.
I attended private school throughout high school, and benefitted from a smaller group environment and a more focused academic career. When entering college, I enjoyed all areas of academics, especially English and Psychology and have always had a high motivation for success. I ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Kids need to feel comfortable and safe with the person who is working with them in order to relax and just try. I start where the student is and help move forward form there. I will repeat, show, explain in different ways, and validate the student's progress as many times as it takes. I can recognize the teaching moments, and I identify the missing pieces that will turn the light on for the key concepts. I love working with all ages, including adult learners and persons with disabilities.
I became a Teacher as a second career after working in the field of psychology/counseling. Because of my background, I decided to become cridentialed in Special Education.

I love to watch children learn and ask questions to become more knowledgeable of the world they live in and discover what interests they might have for the future. I believe that if a child needs additional help in learning the resources should be available to them so that they will not fall behind in their class.
As a graduate of the University of LaVerne I understand the need for further education to advance in my career. I have good grammar, writing, and reading skills and I am proficient in Microsoft Word, Excel, and other Windows based programs.

I believe that an open dialogue is a teacher's most needed resource. Any child needs to feel as though he or she can express concerns or apprehensions without the fear of feeling embarrassed or stupid. I truly believe that there is no such thing as a stupid question. Teaching should, of course, relay necessary information, but it should also foster a student's drive to succeed, as well as the knowledge that any goal can be reached through perserverance. I enjoy helping students of all ages, and I look forward to what my students will inevitably teach me.

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
