A Little Bit About Me...

I use Socratic questioning strategies and experiential learning to ensure that students understand why a concept applies rather than just memorizing formulas. I use manipulatives and visual aids to ensure that multiple modalities are integrated. I work with the whole student as a person, identifying how the student learns and teaching the student how to adapt various teaching styles to his/her learning style.
I have 9 years of experience teaching high school; all courses - AP Calculus, pre-calculus, algebra 2, geometry, algebra, pre-algebra (including special needs and english learners), and practical applications. Over the last 20 years, I have tutored students in all of the above subjects as well as elementary math concepts, writing strategies, and reading recovery. I am NCLB certified and focused on the defined national & state standards of each subject.

I believe wholeheartedly that all students can be successful in the classroom regardless status or background. Accordingly, I hold my students to high academic standards, and expect great things of them based on their various ability levels. Additionally, I truly believe that education should be a meaningful experience that awakens, in students, a genuine desire to become lifelong learners. It is my personal and professional goal to achieve such lasting affects by facilitating an inclusive student centered learning environment that acknowledges students' personal, cultural, and academic interests.

My philosophy focuses on the development across five dimensions of learning: confidence and independence, knowledge and understanding, skills and strategies, the ability to use prior and emerging experience in new situations, and reflectiveness - the ability to think deeply and critically. I provide students with more experiences to working independently and interactively. It is essential to coordinate the students' inherent drive for self-determination, academic goals, and engaging activities that represents student achievement and performance. My practice is to create an environment that is highly collaborative, project-based, resource-rich, challenging, and equitable.
During the last seven years, I have taught and tutored students in the subjects of life science, general science, physical science, chemistry, intro physics and mathematics. My background includes: a Bachelors Deg ... read more

Teaching in an inspiring and positive teaching style, I have special talent to explain and to clarify difficult concepts in a variety of ways that effectively "get the idea across" in a manner that makes learning easier and more fun. I believe that a structured environment with open communication is most effective and conducive to learning. I work with students to develop critical and independent problem-solving skills through praise and building confidence and self-esteem. Because all children do not learn the same way, I incorporate all three learning styles--auditory, visual and kinesthetic, or learning by doing-- into my teaching in order to meet individual needs and ability to learn.
Earning my BA degree and Teaching Credential from SDSU, I also have units equivalent to a Master's in curriculum development and health information. Recognized as an outstanding and dedicated teac ... read more

I have earned 2 degrees, B.S. in Business Administration with a concentration in Finance and an MBA with a concentration in Finance. These degrees have enabled me to have much improved skills in paper writing and math. I have done extremely well in English, Philosophy, and Business writing. In 2008, I became a substitute teacher and it was a great experience working with children of all grades and subjects. Arabic is my native language. I took Arabic classes from K-12 and completed mandatory Arabic examinations by the government of education, which I then earned a certificate of excellence. Furthermore, French is my third language and took classes from K-12 and a college course. I believe I can tutor French at the beginner's level.

I hold Bachelor and Master of Arts degrees in English Literature from Kansas State University. In addition, I have two years of teaching experience at the collegiate level where I taught writing courses to freshmen and sophomores. I have also tutored many students in various Literature and writing courses throughout my two years as a graduate student.
I advocate a hands-on teaching and learning environment. I think that hands-on learning is the only way to truly help students interact with a subject in order to absorb and comprehend it. If, as a teacher or tutor, I can help the student relate a subject to their lives or help them create a connection between what they are learning and what they enjoy, I have succeeded. Teaching is not about lecturing, it is about encouraging students to seek answers of their own accord through positive interaction with the subject material. Ultimate ... read more

I am confident that I can help my students improve in their performance in any of the above-mentioned subjects in a relaxed and welcoming atmosphere. I believe that any student can learn a subject once he or she is able to understand its concepts and practice its procedures following a consistent set of steps. Having a thorough understanding of mathematics and physics allows me to break down concepts, explain them using different approaches, diagnose where the student has misconceptions or difficulties, and to review skills that will enable the student to have a strong foundation. I also have access to software, activities and manipulatives that may make the learning process more fun.
I have a BS in Mathematics from Cal Poly Pomona along with 8 years of work experience tutoring secondary students and college students in Pre-Algebra, Algebra 1, Geometry, Algebra 2, College Algebra, ... read more

I believe that with proper classroom management and an interesting delivery of lessons, every student has the potential to learn and achieve academic success. I use a number of methods to introduce the concepts to my students, including hands-on activities, use of manipulatives, computer generated presentations, role-playing, textbooks, video, etc. I feel that if I can find the proper modality along with allowing a student to explore on his own, then a student can achieve success in learning. My goal is to build a safe and stimulating learning environment, and to try to make learning interesting and fun during the challenging middle school years.

My teaching style is adaptive, changing with the needs of the individual student. Since each student learns in a different manner, so have I learned to adapt my teaching to each individual student. Additionally, I ensure that while tutoring I bolster and reinforce the self-esteem of the student. Many times, the fact that a tutor is necessary may lead the student to the erroneous assumption that something is wrong with the student. My experience and teaching style is to celebrate every single student learning victory.
My BA was earned at a small, independent, private college in Los Angeles. My major is in English, with a minor in Psychology and Sociology. I have a Master’s degree in Elementary Education, which was completed in 18 months. I have also passed the following educational tests in the state of California: CBEST, CSET (Multiple Subject), and RICA. (Reading Instruction Comp ... read more

I also believe in making the material fun and exciting for the students. I try to relate personal experiences of the students as much ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

As the eldest of five children, I have a life of experience working with children and teaching has always been a part of my life, even before I began working in education professionally. I believe that all students should be treated with respect and professionalism and I believe that this is the basis of any good educational approach. I also find that understanding a particular student's needs and learning style is essential. I often employ the Socratic method of teaching students, using questions to elicit thought-provoking discussion of materials.
In 2005, I graduated Summa Cum Laude from Carroll College with a BA in English Writing and Literature. During this time I was awarded membership into six National Honors Societies for academic excellence in various studies, including English Writing, English Literature and Philosophy.

I graduated from the University of California, Santa Barbara in 2008 with a double major in chemistry (B.S.) and environmental studies (B.A.). This combination of subjects led me to in-depth knowledge of chemistry, environmental studies, and mathematics as well as broad understanding of biology, physics, ecotoxicology, writing, history, economics, and logic. I have tutored elementary students and middle school students in mathematics, social studies, science, and language arts. Additionally, I helped friends while in high school and college with subjects ranging from mathematics and organic chemistry to logic and environmental studies.
My parents always stressed the importance of education. Over time, this became my philosophy as well. I enjoy trying to bring out this love of learning in the next generation. I feel that is done by not only helping the students to succeed in school, ... read more

I am a 'relaxed' teacher, but maintain - or try to maintain - a good study pace. The individual I may be tutoring may require different approaches to try and learn the material at-hand; however, I have always found that with a positive attitude and a constructive approach to any learning 'issue' the solution is normally found between both the student and the tutor (as to the best study method works for the individual at-hand).
As an undergraduate student at the University of California Santa Barbara I found and nurtured a love to pass-on learned experiences to others. The program I was heavily involved with was named MESA (Mathematics, Engineering, and Science Achievement). Being an engineer, I tutored students at different High Schools and found great pleasure in seeing how other kid's faces could 'sparkle,' when they found-out that they could solve problems which they may have no ... read more
