A Little Bit About Me...

I am well-traveled internationally, and have nearly 30 years experience teaching and implementing management level development programs. I am comfortable presenting to groups of all sizes, and enjoy every opportunity to collaborate on programs that will enhance community life. My interests center on the human creative process and the expression and expansion of creative intelligence. In recent years my attention has turned to world peace and proven technologies to promote the same. I am a certified teacher of the Transcendental Meditation technique and have taught in the SLO County system as substitute and home-hospital instructor.
I love teaching. I also love learning. It has been my good fortune to teach, for many years, students of all ages. I find great fulfillment in the flow of knowledge and the dynamic learning experience. Every student is different in how they perceive the ... read more

I am a green building and energy efficiency specialist with a bachelor's degree in mechanical engineering from the University of California, Berkeley. Though I am a building scientist and love teaching math and the sciences, I take great pleasure and excel in creative and technical writing and have authored multiple books, essays, and scientific publications. Regardless of the subject, teaching is a personal and professional passion for me! My teaching experience includes tutoring children on multiple subjects; online university seminars; live workshops for ten to 100 people; exam prep courses; and train-the-trainer programs in India and Madagascar.

I am a creative, patient teacher. I know that everyone learns differently, so I try to come up with many different ways to explain a concept. I love to see the sudden understanding in a student's eyes when they finally understand a difficult concept. This is what makes teaching an addictive and highly fulfilling activity for me.
During my undergraduate years, I often found myself tutoring fellow students. Eventually I got a job working for the math and science tutoring center on campus. I tutored students in my own classes and others, and I also helped teach a vertebrate anatomy lab. I am currently a Master's student in biology, and while biology is my field, I am also an accomplished writer. I feel comfortable helping students in a variety of fields, especially basic mathematics, science, and writing.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have taught and tutored hundreds of children while substitute teaching. I have found that my style is one which tries to involve the student in the learning process as much as possible. I love using volunteers to read aloud and participate in the learning process. I feel that treating each child with respect and as individuals increases their own abilities and improves their self-confidence as well.
I graduated with an AA Degree in Liberal Studies from Allan Hancock Community College. I then transferred to San Francisco State University where I earned my BA Degree in Liberal Studies with an emphasis in Sociology. Upon graduation, I began working as a Substitute Teacher for grades K-8 in Santa Maria, CA. During this time, I was responsible for teaching many subjects including English, math, music, history and physical education. I also conducted many small group tutoring ses ... read more

As a young lawyer, I am proficient in all subject matters and excel in grammatical skills and language arts. I graduated cum laude from Georgetown University Law Center in Washington DC.

A Little Bit About Me...

Teaching has been an important part of my life. I believe within a structured learning environment, it is possible to provide an open-ended approach to learning. Through my experiences teaching in a variety of environments to a variety of students, I have learned flexibility in learning and teaching modalities. Students learn in different ways and it is my responsibility as an educator to find the best approach for each child. Learning should be and can be fun. I want your child to find academic success, better study methods and greater critical thinking skills. My goal is to impart to my students, a passion for life-long learning.
I have been drawn to teaching and working with youth for much of my life. Twenty Three years of varied teaching assignments have given me a wealth of education experiences to draw on. University years found me assisting in public elementary clas ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I worked in educational assessment for eight years, developing custom tests (in the reading/language arts and social studies content areas) for state departments of education. My focus was on creating tests (multiple-choice and essay-based) in alignment with state standards. In light of my extensive assessment experience, I understand how tests are written and organized, and I understand how to help students prepare for tests, as well as how to complete other assignments. Earlier, I worked as a substitute teacher at the elementary, middle school, and high school levels, and also taught Algebra I for three summers at a high school. I understand what teachers are likely to expect of students at various grade levels and in various subjects.
I enjoy reviewing an assignment, lesson, chapter, or other student material, and determining what is needed from the student. I also believe in ... read more

In order to to be a successful teacher and to help others to succeed, a dedicated and disciplined teacher will gain the TRUST of his/her students by first LISTENING, always being willing to help, never standing in judgement or criticize, especially in front of others, and giving the students respect/credit to be able to learn! Also, each person learns in a different way/speed, some fast, others slower...all of the above is my teaching style, and to have the PATIENCE to individually help EVERYONE, no matter how fast/slow! ALWAYS BELIEVE in your students...they will BELIEVE in YOU!
