More About This Tutor...

As an Arizona State University graduate 2001, I graduate with a strong passion to help make a difference in the lives of today's youth through academic excellence. I have been a special education teacher for 6 years and have worked with all grade levels and learning styles. My teaching career began in the Mesa Public Unified school district where I gained experience in an inclusion and in a private day school setting. Then I continued teaching at a private day school within the Florence Unified school district.
A teacher's ability to see where a student is and get them to where they need to be is the key to success. There are many ways to teach but the importance is to find what special ingredient will help the student excel. As an educator I promote technology, high level thinking, creating and discovery implementing these concepts to check for mastery in the academic areas. Aca ... read more

I have a MS in Varying Exceptionalities. I also have 18 hrs of ESL. Currently, I am working on 18 hrs of English. I have taught pre-school through adults. I have taught many different kinds of students. I have taught international students, ESL students, and native speakers of English. I have worked in pre-schools, public schools, private schools, language schools, and colleges. I have tutored many different kinds of students from foster children to adults.
Since I have a degree in special education and ESL, I have used many different methods of teaching. As a teacher I see myself as a facilitator. I want my students to be in charge of their learning, not me. I often ask a student “leading questions” instead of just giving them the answer. I also consider the audience when I am teaching. I ask myself...Are they familiar with our customs or not? Do they know our idioms or not?

In addition to my undergraduate degree, I have many graduate credits in education including elementary math,science and reading. I have taught full time in an elementary classroom for 14 years and substitute taught for almost as many. My experiences include tutoring at the elementary and high school level.
I am of the opintion that all students can learn. If my method of teaching is not working, I will pursue all methods available by communicating with my peers for ideas. My students learn my expectations early on ,then I am their facilitator. I prefer discovery learning and implement hands-on learning whenever possible.

I strive to make the learning experience something that the student is eager to repeat. I want every student to feel comfortable, confident and capable of achieving huge success because of the skills they have personally learned. I feel that students learn well when they see the subject matter in the context of life and realize that the knowledge they are learning can be applied to reality. I value the involvement of sensory learning so that the student participates in an experience and is not just memorizing random facts. My strongest belief is that all students deserve to be treated with dignity and with absolute respect for their potential.
I have always found the learning process fascinating and feel that there is nothing more satisfying than helping someone master a new skill. I have observed that a good teacher can change lives and make the learning process a positive and emp ... read more

I graduated from college with honors, receiving a BA degree in English studies. My teaching experience was in grades K-2. I built a firm foundation at the beginning of the children's education. I have tutored students from kindergarten up to adult level, personalizing the lessons to meet the particular needs. I have also aided bilingual students to speak and write the English language.
I individualize the lesson content to targeted areas that will benefit each pupil. I pinpoint strengths and weaknesses so that the student can succeed. I find out the learning style of each one and teach study habits and wise use of time. I may give tips to parents to enable them to help their child. Hopefully a love of learning will be one of the results of the tutoring sessions.

A Little Bit About Me...

As an undergrad I attended Wheaton College in Wheaton, Illinois, a school well-known for its academic excellence, where I studied Christian Education under a group of highly talented professors. While this degree was not a typical teaching degree, it incorporated a significant amount of educational theory, communication skills, and developmental psychology which I have used as a mentor, Sunday school teacher, and tutor. I then attended Fuller Theological Seminary as a master’s student where I studied theology and youth ministry. This program allowed me to further study the developmental issues connected with adolescents, as well as increase my writing and critical thinking skills through the study of theology, philosophy, and history. I have worked with middle school and high school students in a church setting for 9 years. I began tutoring last year, working with elementary and Jr. ... read more

I am very attuned to the individual that I am focused on and I readily comprehend that they are unique in their learning styles. I am patient and always try to meet them at their level prior to moving ahead. Learning has not been an easy process for me and I had to work to meet the challenges so I understand the rigors of trying to accomplish a goal. Most of all, I enjoy all ages of students and appreciate them. Students respond well to me and I am graceful in comprehending their challenges and very honest with them as we move thru this learning process.
I am a compassionate educator...I have a great affinity for those struggling with learning and am quite well aware of the assistance a tutor...a step up.

A Little Bit About Me...

I love children and believe that every child can learn. In my classroom, I provided a multitude of diverse learning experiences for my students - from experimentation to cooperative learning. I support the multiple intelligences theory and always attempted to accommodate students' various learning needs. For example, when finishing a novel, students were given options for completing a book project: traditional book report, building a model of a favorite scene and presenting it to the class, creating a scrapbook for a main character and presenting it, etc. I held high standards for my students but always provided the tools for them to achieve those standards.
After earning my bachelor's degree in History and Political Science, I went on to complete the teacher's certification program through the University of Phoenix. I began teaching middle school Language Arts, Reading, Writi ... read more

My teaching style is that of empowerment. I believe everyone is capable of producing great written works and try to guide an individual through exploring their writing style and voice. My method is not to tell a writer how to write an assignment, but to offer guidance and feedback. Ultimately, the writing I tutor is not my own, so I attempt to empower the writer so that he or she becomes a better writer.
I earned my first degree in May 2010; I hold a BS in Applied Psychology and am pursuing an MS in Applied Psychology, which I should earn later this year. As an undergraduate and as an graduate student, I have explored my passion for learning and as a by product honed my writing skills. For three years of my undergraduate career, I worked as a Writing Tutor. I have experience tutoring papers for many subjects, i.e. humanities, biology, aviation, nutrition, and computer science ... read more
