More About This Tutor...

I have experience teaching individuals of all ages. I have been working with various tutoring companies since May. Furthermore, I have taught numerous children how to read and do basic math. I have tutored many of my classmates in various subjects including psychology, English, biology, and algebra since high school. I facilitate day treatment groups teaching severely emotionally disturbed children social skills, behavior management, and life skills. These children also have a range of diagnoses such as autism or ADHD. I helped provide group and individual reading instruction for adults with developmental disabilities for a year. During this time I also supervised clients and helped teach arts, theater, and dance classes for adults with developmental disabilities. I used to be a church nursery teacher where I taught basic gospel principles to children 18 months through three years old. I ... read more

I recently graduated from Pomona College, a liberal arts college ranked 4th in the nation. I received my Bachelors of Arts in Black Studies and minored in both politics and Spanish.

In addition being well versed in each of these social science disciplines, I am bilingual. I am proficient in a variety of computer software programs. I have extensive knowledge of the law and public policy and have participated in numerous organizations where I exemplified strong leadership skills.

A Little Bit About Me...

I taught college composition to college students as a teaching assistant while I was in grad school. I completed a teaching practicum as part of my training. I tutored calculus and algebra to college students while I was an undergraduate. I earned the College Reading and Learning Association (CRLA) certification.
I believe in a personal, individual attention approach to tutoring as this is how I myself was taught by my parents and siblings. I am also result oriented as far as grades are concerned.

More About This Tutor...

Only four years after immigrating from Belgium to the US, self motivated success and ambition allowed me to graduate Valedictorian of my high school class. I was offered a full ride scholarship to UC Berkeley, the #1 public university in the nation. I was pleased with my accomplishments and proceeded to keep following my dream of becoming a pharmacist. I was an Honors college graduate with a BA in Economics and a minor in Spanish but, because I was still interested in health care, my courses ranged from macroeconomics and Spanish American literature to biology, physics and organic chemistry. Extracurricular activities as a volunteer tutor and mentor have allowed me to develop the skills and patience to be an effective and compassionate teacher.

There are many teaching methods that stand behind my philosophy. I believe that remaining aware of the different ways in which children learn, and taking those learning styles into consideration throughout my lesson planning and delivery, is of great importance. The classroom environment is also very important. A healthy learning environment, where both my students and I can take risks, make mistakes and learn from one another, is key. My philosophy of education will keep on evolving as I gain teaching experience. I will add some new goals and revise others. Even as my philosophy undergoes change, I believe that my main goal will remain the same. My mission is to motivate students to become life-long learners, and help them acquire skills that will enable them to pursue independent learning.
Throughout college, I completed two field experiences followed by my student teaching ex ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I enjoy teaching and utilize several different types of styles to keep students interested and desirous of learning. I provide thought provoking questions which require more than a simple yes or no answer. I envoke lecture as little as required to get across the point, but prefer demonstration or class participation. I utilize small groups so that students learn to interact with others.
I have been teaching at the post-secondary level for 3 years. Prior to that time I taught classes in Emergency Medical Technician and Cardio-pulmonary Life Support to military Doctors, nurses and medical techinicians. I have been able to develop a great rapport with my students and offer special one-on-one attention when needed to ensure the required knowledge is gained. I have assisted students with medical laboratory procedures requiring unique individual instruction.

Teaching has always been a part of my life. My mother was constantly teaching me, along with my siblings and the twenty other children that ran in and out of our home. I believe strongly in a teaching method that provides encouragement and positivism; one that highlights the good before pointing out the mistakes. My goal is to listen to the child and hear what his or her needs are and where he or she is struggling, and then to actively tackle one issue at a time through creative and interactive activities, problem-solving, and constructive criticism. I believe in children, their innocence, their carefree energy and endless intelligent ideas and innovations. My ultimate goal in life is to make a difference, and children are a great place to start!
Growing up my mother ran a tutoring program out of our home. This is where I initially learned the skills involved in tutoring. Ever sinc ... read more

More About This Tutor...

My success as a teacher has come from my belief that young people have a better chance at succeeding when they are empowered with tools and support for their own capacity to learn and grow, rather than simply fed information. Certain qualities are needed in a tutor or teacher to make that possible: compassion, confidence and an ability to create a safe container, one that is nurturing and void of impatience and frustration. These qualities make up the foundation of my teaching style, along with a high-level of work quality and extensive experience teaching children and young people of many different backgrounds and abilities.
I have over 13 years experience as a teacher and tutor as well as many years of education and training that include the following: Psychoeducational Therapist at the Children’s Evaluation and Rehabilitation Center in New York (specializing in youth with lear ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

While doing my Bachelor's in Economics I was tutoring at a nearby college. My subjects were English, Social studies, Biology and Chemistry. My recent tutoring experience involves my own children, both of whom I tutored in every subject up to the seventh grade. Except for Arithmetic, I still help my son in High School with other subjects.
I look on teaching as a learning experience.I learn from my students, from their input and work on it, what I give is based on my student,s knowledge which I learn with patient effort.I start by letting the student tell me all thereby revealing his/her knowledge of the subject.Then I work to improve on their needs based on their knowledge.

A Little Bit About Me...

I discovered my passion for instructing, tutoring, and working with youth during my experience as a substitute teacher. I understand that every student has their own unique way of learning, and I believe in a patient approach that will help a student build confidence in the subject matter, and develop good study habits. I think the greatest legacy a person can leave in life is a good impression on younger generations, and therefore I take each teaching opportunity seriously.
I graduated from the University of Nevada, Reno in May of 2009 with a Bachelor's of Science in Geography, an interdisciplinary field which enabled me to cover a broad area of subject matter throughout my studies. From studying abroad in Italy, and working abroad in Ecuador, I have a knowledge of Spanish and Italian. For the 2009-2010 school year, I was a substitute teacher in the Elko County School District, an ... read more
