I do my best to make learning fun and relatable.

I have worked as an English, Math, and Science tutor at both the undergraduate and graduate level for the past 7 years. Within that time, I have tutored countless students that have shown noticeable improvement in their test scores and their understanding of class material. As an undergraduate at Victor Valley College, I was part of the Model United Nations program, the Phi Theta Kappa Honor Society, and the Writing Center. I currently work as a tutor at CSU San Bernardino, where I assist students with writing assignments from a wide variety of disciplines. As a senior/graduate level pre-medical biology major, I am highly experienced with topics ranging from Cellular Respiration to Neuroscience. I also have hundreds of hours of plant, animal, cellular, and outdoor/ecological lab experience.

Guitar is one of my top subjects! Playing guitar for over 45 years.

Hands on with actual files. Encouraging the creative abilities that are within the student. Always keeping in mind that I once was where my students are now, not quite enough confidence in what they can accomplish. I use humor in a quick witted and non-personal way to get and keep the attention of my students and always keeping it clean.
Worked in the graphics industry since before it became desktop publishing. Teaching and tutoring in the industry since 1996 from drum scanning to video editing to prepress. Job experience is in advertising, publishing major monthoy periodicals and sign design and prepress production. My forte is in production work first then design work. I enjoy teaching others as my students have gained more confidence in their work in digital graphics with solid professional work ethics.

Guitar is one of my top subjects! Flamenco, Classical, Rock/pop, Jazz, Folk

I provide worksheets and online tutorials to aid the student when I am not physically present.
I have a total of 7 years of teaching experience. From 2010-2013, I worked as an enrichment counselor for the Pomona Unified School District. This job required me to create lesson plans and manage a class of 20 students for 3 hours a week, 5 days a week. From 2013-2015, I worked for the Chino Unified School District's AVID (Advancement Via Individual Determination) program. In this job, I offered life readiness and college readiness skills and tutored various common core subjects to groups of 5 Jr. high and high school students. I networked myself through the AVID program, and began my freelance tutoring services in math and science. I had to leave the AVID program in 2015 to pursue a very important job opportunity to work as a Music Assistant for a program called " The Music Immersion ... read more

Guitar is one of my top subjects! I have 15 years experience playing guitar. I have played in many bands and have a vast knowledge and understanding of the music business.

Relaxed. Accommodating.
On the design end of the spectrum, I have spent the last 2 1/2 years doing freelance design around the LA area and have worked for a design studio making posters, logos, album covers, layout, branding, and more. Additionally, I have also worked for a firm in downtown LA doing presentation design. On the music/guitar end of the spectrum I have been playing guitar and in bands since I was 12 years old. I have toured the better part of the country with bands, and have a deep understanding of the music business. I have learned enough in my experience as a designer and musician that the key skill in today's culture, which is ever evolving, is the ability to learn.

I highly enjoy working with children and adults of all ages. I've enjoy giving my students accountability in what I will teach them. Through the usage of this method I've found my students can learn to their highest potential. I believe all children and people can meet their potential if they are given a positive and encouraging surrounding as well. Through my teachings, students can learn improvisational skills, how to read music, finger style picking, how to tune, how to change strings, special effects of the guitar, history of the guitar, music theory, etc. I strive to provide my students with excellent instruction to make them the best they can be.
Education has always been very important to me. My life has been dedicated to the learning and teaching of music (particularly guitar). While double majoring with two very different music degrees at CSU San Bernardino I also e ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I am flexible and patient; helping students to learn is my priority. I believe that tutoring offers an ideal relationship with the student where their specific needs and learning styles can be addressed. I feel that it is important to connect to a student's interests and imagination. To accomplish this it is necessary to teach with interest and imagination. I don't accept anything less from myself.
I graduated Magna Cum-Laude from Ramapo College with a BA in English and a minor in history. Afterwards, I traveled around the world teaching. Currently I am tutoring in California, passing on my love and knowledge of the English language, literature, and other subjects to students. In addition to my background in the Humanities, I have taken several semesters of Math and Science courses. I have been tutoring students since I was employed by Ramapo and over the years have taught many ... read more

I have worked with children in one way or another for my entire adult ilfe. I have taught pre-school and elementary education as well as working in two different children's museums. I currently posses a California Clear Elementary Education Credential and a Masters in Education from the University of La Vern. The process of obtaining my teaching credential and my masters degree allowed me to reflect upon the educational skills I developed teaching preschool.
My teaching style is student focused. It is necessary to understand the student's strenghts and needs before one can begin to assist them in learning the academic material that they need to master. Much of my preshool teaching career consisted of working with four year olds and getting them ready for kindergarten. I made it a point of talking to kindergarten teachers in the local area so that I had an idea of the skills that ... read more

Recently I was asked to give a Guest Lecture on Neuroanatomy at Everest College. I wanted to take students on a ride through the nervous system, into subcortical structures, down the spinal cord to synapse onto muscles and organs. I had to cover everything I learned in the past year, in four hours. I was able to compile a set of animations, which played in tandem with my lecture. Rather than simply name structures, I discussed symptoms that would manifest given a lesion to that area, resulting in effortless comprehension by the students. The idea was simple: present the marvels of anatomy in a way that the digital age can embrace—a philosophy, which I will bring into your institution if granted the opportunity.
As a Pre-medical student, studying Neuroscience, I aspire to one day become a neurosurgeon. In my quest, I’ve decided first—to become a surgical technologist. I’ve served as ... read more

I started tutoring in the Mid 1970's, tutoring Chemistry to CSULA Nursing students. Then I realized i could also tutor Math, since I took many Math classes in my Chemistry and Computer Science curricula. I have encountered a diverse range of students allowing me to hone my craft.
The interesting part was that I was forced to be creative, since not everyone can learn from the same analogies and techniques. So, over the years I have developed many different approaches to teaching and also much patience. I find a method that works for the student, and then make sure quickly the student can actually do the problems. I break down Algebra into visual patterns, and analogous concepts.

I'm a professional musician and teacher, and I've got a lot of real world experience both as a player and teacher. I studied classical guitar, but I play all styles. Studying classical guitar gave me a huge repertoire of not only music but general music knowledge. I do studio work, live work, and I teach both as a private instructor and as a staff member or the the City of Los Angeles.
I teach because I love to help people learn. Most students are children, and teaching children of allages is a blast. All kids are different, and you really have to know what makes them tick. I'm very good at seeing what works for kids and what doesn't. I'm very patient, and I believe in making sure students understand why things are the way they are in music. It's very frustrating playing things, but not knowing why or how it all works. I keep teaching fun, and I approach every student as ... read more

As a UCLA graduate, I have been trained to perform at a high-level of academic excellence. I have earned a bachelor degree in Biochemistry and have had a strong Math background throughout high-school. I have experience tutoring K-12 Math and English for 2 years and have seen my students improve academically under my instruction.
