Speaking is one of my top subjects! I have been a guest speaker at some conventions, and often do presentations for my company to the public. I know what makes a dynamic speech.

I have worked in art and graphic design professionally for the past 6 years, however I have been freelancing and creating art for myself since 1998. I previously worked for the Hayward Area Historical Society, which included assisting in design for exhibits as well as some teaching to visiting school groups. I have also been asked to teach small groups of children about art, or help with general homework on numerous occasions.
I work best one-on-one or in small groups, I can adjust my style to what a person needs after speaking with them for a while and understanding how they learn. I've found the best way to teach someone a new way of looking at something is to understand how they currently perceive it.

My comments on tutoring Speaking : Have been a radio disc jockey for two years of my life. Good at speaking to large audiences. Also wrote and published a book in 2012 and have done public speaking appearances related to that.

I like to involve the students in exercises instead of passively instruct. I prefer to relate lessons to things that are happening in real life, or issues that conjure significant emotion or stimulate debate. Good creative writing is all about the ability to transfer strong feelings from the writer to the reader. To make them feel what you feel or felt.
I taught Communications 101 to 20 "lifers" at San Quentin Prison as part of the Prison University Project. Some of these men had not been in a classroom in 20 years. I've also spent three years on the Advertising Review Committee for the California Chapter of the American Lung Association vetting all adverting, marketing and PR messaging for the marketplace. Lastly, I published my first book in 2012 entitled "Buzzkill," which is now used as required reading at Drexel University in a Psychology 101 course. It has excellent re ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have my Masters in Business Administration and am currently a law student at McGeorge School of Law. I believe one on one tutoring is critical at any age. I am well versed in math, reading, and test prep! I am very energetic and believe in positive reinforcement and the idea that there are no stupid questions. When a student feels free to ask anything they don't fully understand it allows for a firm foundation to be built that will support a deeper understanding in a topic!

A Little Bit About Me...

I believe that education and learning are two of the most exciting and fulfilling elements of life and believe that helping others to learn is a way to give something back to this world. I have a Masters degree in Business. Not surprisingly, my math skills are quite good. Additionally, I possess strong communication skills (verbal and written) and am working on my first novel. In my professional life, I have managed staff and welcomed opportunities to teach and mentor. An intern from years ago recently contacted me and told me that he still fondly remembers us working on a white board to problem solve an issue. I believe that learning and problem solving should be fun, a puzzle that can be cracked if we just approach it the right way.
I love the learning process. Few things in life are as rewarding as teaching and learning. Stylistically, I would consider myself to a patient and ... read more

I use the Active Participation strategy because it engages the learner not only in understanding but in contributing as well. This active learning process combined with introduction of practical uses/examples of the the subject matter provides a deeper meaning. But most of all the Objective,Purpose,and what their interests are, must be known so that these can be incorporated in the learning process.
I have been a substitute teacher for about 10 years specializing in math & physics. I have a BS in Mechanical Engineering plus 20+ years of maintenance/engineering experience. I incorporate practical examples in teaching to give students in depth knowledge in a practical sense. I gather my examples from my varied career experiences from the Military, Aircraft, Engineering, Manufacturing/Maintenance & Computer fields. I sporadically tutors students in my specialty.

My teaching style depends on the needs of the particular students. I assess the style needed for a particular lesson and use visuals, such as PowerPoint presentations, textbooks, as well as audio, with such tools as are available after individual assessments. I have a great deal of experience teaching ESL.
Even before I went to college and earned my B.A., I had already taught two years of ESL in Kachin State, Burma. I came back to the US and earned my degree in East Asian Studies at Indiana University in Bloomington, Indiana. A few months after I graduated I went to the People's Republic of China and taught English as a Second Language from 2003 through 2006. In addition, I have completed all coursework for my M.A. in General Education, however, I have not finished the degree which requires student teaching. I am currently employed as a substitute teacher for two local school d ... read more

I tend to work with the students to help them decipher the answer to a question, rather than give the answer directly. I believe that examples and samples of problems help students understand the problem. And I want to be a resource, not a crutch, to helping students achieve success. I am strong proponent of education and have spent considerable hours in the classroom observing and assisting with various lessons. I have developed great rapport with the students at my son's school and really do enjoy spending time on campus with the kids.
I have worked for a software company training customers, clients and employees on the applications. I have also participated in Junior Achievement and have been very active in my son's school and the community. I am on 5 executive boards, ranging from PTA to a library foundation, and I also chair our annual Halloween festival at school. I ha ... read more

Teaching children of all ages is fun and a good learning experience. Because each child is unique, and with that uniqueness, I treat them as an individual. I believe as an adult, we have to teach the children the right way in life so they can grow up knowing what is right from wrong. I believe, I can give them the tool that will enable them to grow and be a respectable person. I believe, I can make a different in their lives.
After ten years working as a nurse in different facilities, I have finally found what I really like to do most-teaching.I have an MBA in Business Administration which I hope one day will enable me to open and operate my own business. For the time being, I enjoy teaching others how to read, write and moreover manage their daily physical exercise while maintaining a good sense of humor.

My teach style begins with a desire to improve the lives of everyone with whom I come in contact. I take great pleasure in helping others reach their goals. In a phrase, my style is both nurturing and demanding. I have tutored at-risk you men who might deserve sympathy. However, while I am with them I hold them accountable for learning what has been put in front of them. Although I have no formal training as a teacher, I take a lot of lessons from my wife. She is a first grade teacher in Dublin.
My career began with a ‘Big 5’ CPA company in San Francisco. I have held a number of accounting and general business positions over a 25-year period. I have served as controller, responsible for the proper application of accounting rules, and as Chief Financial Officer, responsible for compliance with all governmental and industry rules and regulations.
