I believe that education is the key to success and creating the learning habits early in life would instill in one the desire to love school. I take my job very seriously and am one of the best teachers in the school I work. Since my second BA is in Psy I have found it really helpful to use my knowledge and adapt learning strategies to different type of students- each with unique personality and abilities.

Graduated 1998, BA English Lit/Minor Theater, New York University. I feel very comfortable teaching any English related subject ranging from Composition, Creative Writing, Grammar, Vocabulary, Poetry, Literature, Language Arts, Phonetics and reading and writing help. All levels K-University level. My teaching style is eclectic. My background as a yoga instructor and massage therapist inform my teaching style in that I teach the student as a whole rather than teaching a subject to a student. I like to use current outside sources whether they be from science or art so that learning stays relevant to today. Education 1998 BA English Literature/Minor Theater, New York University 1996 Lic.

I have worked with the LAUSD district, at Granada Hills Elementary School, as an Instructional AID. This position required me to work with students hands on, either in groups or one-on-one. I helped students who were either falling behind on subjects or were having trouble finishing assignments. I also worked with groups of students helping them improve writing composition or comprehension skills. I also had students who were new to the country,with little English. I sat down with them an hour each day during school, working to improve their reading and writing skills. I have also work as an ELA tutor with NCLB Learning With Laptops. This is a program that works with LAUSD, providing in-home tutoring for students who are low-income and need extra help outside of school. We use tablets to do activities and practice various skills.

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. This strategy has proven very effective regardless of the student's educational background or mental ability. Besides being knowledgeable, I am motivating, caring, and patient in guiding your student to academic success! EXECUTIVE FUNCTIONING: Executive Functioning is a separate realm that tutoring can assist in. It deals with cognitive processes including organization, time management, and study skills.

We are a team of experienced teachers and tutors each specializing in our own subject strengths. We provide excellent customer service, possibly immediate or same day for homework help or project completion. Online tutoring is also available with a shared online whiteboard for step-by-step problem solving. We strive to get to the root of the problem be it a test-taking challenge or a problem with foundational concepts. Not very fond of your teacher? Unfortunately, this is often the case. We follow your own pace of learning to achieve results. We love the moment when a student finally understands a topic and starts building self-confidence. We can then use this to change the way a student thinks about a subject resulting in continual improvement and achievement.
