More About This Tutor...

My teaching style is aimed at making the child feel good and happy with learning. Often children need tutoring in subjects that frustrate them, they miss one aspect and while they're spending time on that in class the teacher blazes past them adding more confusion. I take it upon myself to back track to the initial place where the confusion stemmed from and spend the time working through these rough patches. I gear everything as a game or story to create excitement in a subject that would normally earn groans. I want your child to feel proud of what they do know already, and use that happiness to fuel further learning.
I have always had an interest in tutoring, starting in Elementary school where I would leave during recess in the fourth and fifth grade to spend time in my past Kindergarten teacher's classroom. There I would read to students, reinforce the teachings lead by th ... read more

I Promise that you will have fun while you Learn!

Taught Kindergarten through 8th grade. Currently, work with students with special needs, developmental delays, autism,dyslexia and dyscalclia. Previous supervisor of a behavior health program for children with special needs and/or who had experienced trauma in their lives. Taught children's theatre for many years and put on exciting productions! Specialize in writing, reading, and wrote a unique app for learning how to read.
Children say that I am so patient and relaxed. One little girl asked me last week, "how come I don't grate on your nerves? My mom says I grate on her nerves." Well, no child has ever "grated on my nerves" :) Children know I care about them and we develop a mutual respect for each other.

My teaching style is dependent upon a student's learning style. Once I determine how the student learns best, I tailor my teaching style to their needs.

Having graduated with honors from a top university, the greatest asset I offer comes from my real world teaching experience. During my tenure as a substitute I have taught at all levels, from kindergarten to middle-aged adults, in all subject areas. Even as a young person I was involved with teaching others; I first began as a teacher's aid in high school and later I served as a tutor in college. This led to teaching full-time at the kindergarten level. Last year I worked in a summer camp in Canada and I completed my TESOL training and I was successful in teaching English in Paris France in the fall. Returning to California I continue to teach part time for the Ventura Unified School District.
My training in rhetoric, speech, and debate has taught me the importance of speaking clearly and articulately. This means that I pay close attention to language and I try to bring out that qu ... read more

My passion is my teaching. I have used my BS in Chemistry to work in the technical, sales and EH & S fields in industry. I have spent the last fifteen years training engineers and technicians in the industrial world. After my children graduated from college in the summer of 2008, I went back to school and earned my teaching credential in Secondary Education-Science. My enthusiasm for teaching applied science and mathematics to young students has given me high marks in my Graduate program. While going to school at night, I have been substitute teaching during the days. I have been a registered tutor out of the Ventura Unified School District for Algebra, Geometry, Chemistry and Physics.

My teaching style is to show students how to make themselves successful. By motivating my students to do their best every time I can help them exceed expectations and thrive under any situation both academically and socially. Many students focus on what they think they cannot do. What I teach them is to highlight their strengths and improve their weaknesses. I do so with the use of clear directions, constant monitoring, and positive praise. I believe every child can learn it is merely a matter of finding the proper teaching method.
As a University of South Florida college of education graduate I have a wealth of experience with teaching both in the classroom and on a one to one basis. I have successfully tutored students in english, reading comprehension, science and social sciences.

I have been helping others learn the concepts of mathematics since I was a first grader teaching the second graders about the material we were covering in our combined class. My personal education experience has involved helping others reach their goals in several different learning areas. My professional tutoring experience has been in the area of mathematics. I have tutored students in 8th grade algebra and high school geometry as well as college-level multivariate calculus. I have done some individual sessions in the area of physics, but I have primarily tutored the subjects of mathematics.
Mathematics is a universe based on rules. Some mathematical rules are so complex that the foundation required to understand them takes more than a decade to acquire. My teaching style requires a student to communicate their thoughts so that I can assist them in understanding concepts. ... read more

I loved teaching in the classroom setting and will probably go back to that someday, but I have found a real passion and excitement these last two years working one-on-one with students. I enjoy getting to know students, discovering their strengths and weaknesses and using both to help them become lifetime learners. I feel strongly that students who struggle with reading, spelling and comprehension should receive special help at an early age and that the right methods can give them the skills they need to be successful in the future. I look forward to giving students the opportunity to succeed!
I have a bachelor's degree in Liberal Studies with a science concentration and upon finishing my student teaching immediately took a full time job completing the remainder of the school year (March-June 2005) teaching middle school math. In September of 2005 I began teaching middle school sc ... read more
