Experienced and very friendly English teacher ready to help!

I love working one on one with a student. Wherever the student needs help or wants improvement, that is where I meet them. I'm very patient and extremely friendly, and I am determined to help a student understand in any way I can! I also think cookies help studying :) Sometimes, unusual methods like movie clips, cartoons, reading passages, or other "real-life" experiences help to solidify a topic, so I'm not afraid to think outside the box!
I have been teaching all my life. Last year, I lived in Prague, Czech Republic, and taught English to students aged five through adult. They included children, accountants, analysts, engineers, energy experts, and lawyers. I've also taught swimming lessons to individual students and group classes for over ten years. I have a Master's in Creative Writing and poetry, and I have worked as a freelance writer, editor, proofreader, and teacher for man ... read more

Let Mrs. Johnson Make You a ROCK STAR!

I have been teaching in Chico, California for the past 26 years. I have experience with grades K-6, but really prefer 2-5th grades. I have tutored for many years, helping struggling students catch up with their peers. I have many tricks and resources to use. I have laptops and curriculum, not to mention a in-depth knowledge of state standards. I know what the children will be expected to accomplish on Common Core Standardized Tests. I can help prepare your child for the next grade, catch up with their peers and/or get them ready to CCSS tests that are given in the spring. I LOVE working with children one-on-one or in small group settings, as you can really see growth and the sparkle in their eyes when they feel successful! I love to teach and would love the opportunity to support your child!
I teach with passion! I have high expectations coupled with love and support. I am motivati ... read more

More About This Tutor...

Having earned degrees in PE, Exercise Science, Exercise Physiology and Biomechanics I have a strong science background in subjects such as Biology, Anatomy, Physiology, Kinetics, Biomechanics, Cellular Biology, Physics and Chemistry. In turn many of these subjects require knowledge of advanced mathmatical formulas and statistics. Therefore I am also very strong in math. I have published many articles as well as scientific research which emphasizes my skills in writing and grammar and again supports my knowledge of statistical analysis. Institutions for which I have taught are CSU Chico, Butte College, Yuba College and The American College Of Sports Medicine. All in all I have well over ten years experience teaching at an advanced level.
My teaching style would be that of Guided Discovery. This is a highly interactive style which leads the student to uncover the answer themselves ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

At the tender age of 25 I have already been admitted into the California State Bar as an attorney. I graduated from the University of California, Irvine earning my Bachelor's degree, with cum laude honors, in only 3 years. Shortly thereafter I attended Southwestern Law School where I was a member of the Trial Advocacy Honors Program. I am an excellent writer with exemplary grammatical and communication skills. During my time in college and law school I have helped students better understand multiple subjects, including: Writing, Law, Political Science, Speech and Debate, and Philosophy. In addition, I have helped students apply and gain acceptance into various colleges and law schools.
I am a firm believer that everyone learns in different ways. This being the case, I like to identify a person's strengths and weaknesses so that I can create an individual plan that is tailored ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I am a believer of diversity. I don't believe that learning is "One size fits all". I am aware that children come from a variety of backgrounds and their home and outside environment contribute to their success. I am kind, very patient, and I have the ability to motivate students. I will always encourage and not bring students down with harsh words. I will help them find the learning style that suits them the best. I will strive to help them through any academic problems and turn them into solutions they can carry and apply to the rest of their lives. Every child has the potential to be successful, they just need a chance to flourish. I believe I can help guide them in the right direction.
As a former military child, I have learned to adapt very quickly to any situation and believe every experience is a learning one. I have worked with both military and non-military with my dut ... read more

I believe in explaining the concepts first and them allow the student to do the work themselves. I am open and friendly and clients enjoy being in the teaching environment. I practice patience and believe in giving a lot of positive reinforcement. The learning experience should be enjoyable and productive and the student should leave feeling they have actually learned new skills!
I have owned and operating my own bookkeeping/accounting/business management service for over thirty years. I have taught others how to use QuickBooks, set up filing systems, enter data base information and organize their finances. I have supported a variety of businesses and organizations including several non-profits. I have taught others about AP, AR, Payroll, Taxes, and other financial information.
