Credentialed Elementary Teacher Able to Tutor K-12

I am a credentialed elementary teacher, but have experience tutoring K-12, both in person and virtually. I began tutoring virtually starting in mid 2019 and refined my skills during the pandemic when everything became virtual. I also currently teach 3rd grade in California and participate regularly in plenty of professional development, including post graduate courses. This is my 6th year teaching in the classroom, but my umpteenth year working with children in a school setting.
I use a comprehensive homeschool curriculum with progress monitoring reports, and my lessons are interactive and designed to meet the needs of each student. I try to have fun and make it relevant to their own experience, and I ensure that every student feels included and welcomed. In the classroom, my biggest strengths are levels of engagement and behavior management utilizing SEL methods.

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.

More About This Tutor...

I believe that each child is an empty page in a book. Teachers must provide information to help fill up that page. It is my job to see that each child reaches their true potential. I realize that each child learns in different ways. I bring science and math to life by letting students explore different approaches to solving an equation or science mystry. There may be only one correct answer but there are many ways to find it. I am not a person who thinks that textbooks have all the answers or show the only way to look at things. I want my students to take chances, make mistakes (that is the only way you really learn) and get messy. If you are looking for a tutor who thinks out side of the box then I am the tutor for you.
I have over 10 years of experience as a substitute teacher and a regular full time classroom teacher. My first position was teaching Japanese Language to ... read more

More About This Tutor...

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 have earned a BS in Social Science and will have completed my MA in Teaching in February 2011. I have a passion for working with both children and teenagers and have tutored for the last 3 years mainly in writing and English, but also elementary Mathematics.
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 tha ... 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 have taught RSP English and basic math for 7 years. I enjoy breaking the concepts of reading and writing down to the easiest basic steps. I am trained in teaching elementry reading skills, as well as teaching students ... read more

More About This Tutor...

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.
I am a California State University, Los Angeles graduate, holding a BA in English, with a specific focus on clasroom teaching. Throughout high school and college, I was driven to assist my peers, using my knowledge to ensure that they understood the subject matter and would succeed in any academic endeavors. As a nanny, I have seve ... read more

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
