My comments on tutoring Musical : Music Theory and Musicianship

I provide worksheets and online tutorials to aid the student when I am not physically present.
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 ... read more

More About This Tutor...

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

Like others, I enjoy my teaching career because I believe that teaching always provides a valuable experience that promotes learning and development.For me as a teacher, I learn not only to the subject matter that I taugth everyday in the class ,but also from my teaching experiences that I could get from each students in the class.With regards to my teaching approach, I believe that each child is capable of learning.In order to learn,a proper guidance and training of his abilities and knowledge must be given to him.In addition, teacher's knowledge and approach in teaching are some important factors that could help the child to learn.
Teaching is my passion.I was blessed that I completed my bachelor degrees in college of education major in science.In addition, I earned 33 units in my Master's Degree,major in teaching science.After I graduated in college, I was hired as a full time t ... read more

I consider my ability to observe and adapt to situations that may not be considered ordinary as an advantage. Through education, I have developed techniques that enhance my analytical and critical thinking skills. My closest linguistic “friends” in life are How, What, When, Where, Who, and Why. With their help and the help of others, I know I will succeed as a teacher and student. I am a perpetual pupil and will remain so until the end. I also draw upon my experiences as a husband, parent, son, brother, friend, and associate when assessing interactions and conversations with those individuals I come into contact with on a daily basis. We are all here and together for such a short time, and time is an irreplaceable asset. Therefore, it only stands to reason that moments of learning should not be wasted. I consider teaching to be a privilege as well as a serious responsibility, and I will ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have had the experience to maintain patience when teaching students. I have always loved helping children become confident in who they are as well as in achieving their academic potential. I make an effort to create a comfortable environment where students are able to approach me for all their questions as we work to improve the skills they must have for a future full of hope and opportunity.
I was a foster parent for fourteen years in which I spent numerous hours with each child weekly working with them to improve their academic skills. I taught a 4th/5th grade class in the 2006/2007 school year. I graduated with a 3.92 GPA where I excelled as a writer. I currently write the company newsletter at my place of employment. I love to teach and hope to be able to spend more time doing so. My BS is in Human Services.I also have added alcohol and drug studies to that degree. I will be ... read more

As a graduate from one of the most prestigious schools in the world, I have the training and experience to motivate and improve a child's ability to learn. I have been a music teacher for four years, working with children of all ages; I am currently working with a special needs child to play the piano. In addition to music, I have written many essays and was encouraged to be an english teach by one of my professors at Cal-state Fullerton.
I am a very encouraging and positive teacher. Growing up with seven siblings, I have learned that patience is the best virtue and children need a stress-free enviroment. I love to use analogies and stories to motivate children to enjoy the sessions. I always felt that it was my mission not to be the "typical" tutor; I want children to look forward learning.

I have a vast array of experience working with kids and working within a teaching setting. Both of my parents are teacher's, my father a private school teacher of biology and my mother a kindergarten teacher. I have also worked with the YMCA in New York for a inner-city day care camp in Newburgh, NY. I have used my parents experience and knowledge to my benefit when I was a resident adviser at SUNY Oneonta, which allowed me to work with students who had just come to university for the first time or who were transferring over from other institutions. Using all this knowledge and experience would greatly benefit not just myself when working but also the students whom I will be tutoring.
My teaching style would best be described as very hands on and more visual then verbal. I believe that you can only say some things so many times, but using more of a hands on and visually stimulating ... read more

I earned a Bachelor's Degree in English with writing emphasis from La Sierra University in 2005. I have professionally tutored/taught students for over 5 years in the areas of reading, writing, math, science, social studies, study skills, and music. I have taught students ages 4-19. I have experience creating and implementing assessments to track student progress. I am fluent in Greek language which has helped me to comprehend word origins at a higher level than most. I have a broad knowledge of school subjects and the skills necessary for success.
I have a funny sense of humor and an easy-going nature that make me very approachable to children. I am passionate about educating children and I believe that every child has a unique way of learning and possesses unique talents.

Over the past 3 years, I have assisted students with very different personalities. Some were excited to receive the help while others were embarrassed to need it. My main goal when teaching is allowing each child to feel comfortable to ask questions. I like to get students excited to learn that way they feel accomplished once they understand the subject. I feel providing a positive attitude along with patience and a genuine love for teaching can allow any student to do extremely well. I like to find the learning style of each child that I mentor or tutor so I can find the best method to help them learn. I can provide your student with a positive outlook on learning. I have a desire to help make a difference in our education system.
I am a very goal oriented person and expect those around me to posses the same quality. I have a great deal of patience, a positive attitude and I love ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I believe tutoring is not only to raise children's grades, but also to make sure they understand the material so it can be applied to other principles in their future education. I believe not every student can be tutored the same way, and I have confidence that I can mold material in a way that each student can understand.
As a high school student, I taught music and math to middle school kids for approximately two years. The music they learned was performed in a competitive circuit in which they placed. As an undergraduate, I served as a study proctor in my sorority from 2007-2009 tutoring in the subjects of math, science, and writing.

I have earned two degrees, a bachelors degree in Business and Masters in Business and Information Technology which has provided me with outstanding experience and understanding in the math, reading comprehension areas. I have always excelled in science as well because the subject has always been a joy of learning for me. I have personally held afterschool science programs at the local recreation center for children in grades k-8. Working with the youth has always been a joy for me and for the past 7 years I have contributed in a number of subjects including writing, reading, math and science.
I really enjoy teaching and working with children of all ages. I know that children can excel at anything and we all have different learning styles. Co-partnering with parents is critical to success in their child(ren) education. Everyone should have the opportunity to succeed and should ... read more

Working with children is such a joy! I really enjoy being able to observe the moment the "lightbulb" comes on. During the past three years, I have had the privilege of working as a substitute teacher in two different school districts, and have instructed students ranging in level from kindergarten to high-school. My teaching style is a blend of positive praise, firmness and creativity. Whether working one-on one or with a group, I do my best to always present the material using logical, fun and varied methods to ensure my students' understanding. My hope is that they, like myself, will continue on as life-long learners, able to impart their precious knowledge with others.
In reality, I have been tutoring almost since I could read or write. The first tutoring job I held was in elementary school. After graduating from elementary school, I did my first two years of secondary ed ... read more

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.
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!
