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 myself. Having earned a Bachelor Degree in Social Science with a primary field in Sociology and two secondary fields in Psychology and Ethnic Studies with University Honors, have enabled me to gain a better understanding of the society we live in today. In addition, I have been an AVID tutor in high school, which is a program whose main goal is to prepare students for college. I have tutored high school students in Social Studies, Math, Chemistry, English and Spanish.
The world would be a boring place if all of its people were the same. I believe each individual is socially, academically, emotionally, cognitive ... 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

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 Calculus AP test. I received my BA in English, my teaching credential, and my MA in Education from the University of California, Davis. I now teach English Language Learners. My wide array of experience and education has given me many skills that I use to promote student success.
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 dismisse ... read more

I am a natural teacher, and my experiences reflect that. For example, I am currently working my way through CSU Palm Desert's multiple subject credential. However, the open position I am applying for requires an “Adult Education Writing Tutor”. As a student and professional, I have had many, many opportunities to hone my writing craft. For example, as an adjunct to my recent studies, I took the Masters "Writing 101" class, which instructed me (among other things) in the finery of APA format. While my in-class performances certainly indicates my ability to write at the graduate level, it is also my professional teaching experience that I believe will convince you to allow me to deliver your services: I possess valuable experience working with students, having several years of small classroom leadership (and one-on-one instruction) with adult learners.
While I pride myself ... read more

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.
