These have enabled me to have an understanding of many areas of Language Arts, History, and English.

I believe all students can find academic success somewhere if given the correct opportunities and surroundings. I firmly believe that I have been educated by some of the best and these educators have made a world of difference in my life and expectations.

I believe that every student can become successful in school, and has the ability to learn. Furthermore, each student has their own learning style and method of learning. It is imperative to determine each student's strength and weakness, and eliminate all weakness. Working with students who are academically challenged takes patience, kindness, and encouragement. Actually, it is the one time I love the most - teaching the student who is left behind and does not understand math concepts or just like reading. You cannot depend on the public school systems. Securing a tutor for your child is an investment in his future. I am a credential teacher specializing in math and reading.

My teaching style as a tutor is to help them to fully understand the concepts that are presented to them. After helping them with a number of problems, they should be able to do the rest on their own. I hope that by slowly guiding them, asking pertinent questions, and offering encouragement that they will become more confident in what they are doing. I also like to impart new ways of how they can help themselves, tips and tricks on how to learn new things.
