Elementary Study Skills Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Ojai, CA

There I would read to students, reinforce the teachings lead by the teacher, and serve as a role model. During my middle school summers I would return to that classroom to provide aid for the summer school kindergarteners before they were able to enter the first grade. Upon entry into high school, I joined Project Understanding, a tutoring volunteer organization to serve children from low-income families who were falling behind in a classroom setting and needed some extra time and a different perspective to learn the material expected of them.

Brain based research is now proving what learning theorists have believed for decades...that making learning fun and joyful is key to helping kids more effectively cement knowledge. Before I even start tutoring, I make sure I get to know your child's: * personality type, * preferred learning styles, * multiple intelligences, and * key likes/dislikes, so that I can make sure that our time together is interesting and engaging as well as effective. (I'll also teach you some of the key strategies you can use during homework time when I'm not with your child.) I am a recognized, published learning expert whose business and books have earned a Parent Tested Parent Approved award, The National Parenting Center's Seal of Approval, and the #1 teaching blog on the web's "Teacher Approved" award.

Ages 6 and above I'm a graduate of UCLA Engineering with a passion for explaining how the physical world works through math and physics along with 14 years of tutoring experience in those subjects, test prep, and mentorship programs. The teaching strategy I believe in emphasizes subject fundamentals, a powerful and necessary tool for higher problem solving.
