A Little Bit About Me...

I respect my students and they respect me. I expect them to work hard, because I work hard, as well. I will do what is humanly possible to help them achieve their goals. I connect with students on a personal level to find out their manner of learning, and after that, I find materials which will make it easier for them to learn. I enjoy working with students who love learning, but if they do not, I can still help them to do better in school.
I have been teaching for twenty seven years in various grades, schools, and types of classes. I taught for 16 years in a bilingual classroom. My last 11 years of teaching have been in a traditional classroom. I have taught every grade level from 1st to 7th, and currently, I even teach an ESL class after school. My areas of expertise would be writing, English grammar, Spanish, and social sciences. I currently tutor students to prepare for their s ... read more

I have a passion for teaching others and thoroughly enjoy the satisfaction of seeing others succeed. In addition to my FT position at Stanislaus University, I am currently teaching adult learners how to prepare for competing in the labor market and fine tuning their job hunting techniques. I have about 6 yrs.experience as a trainer, workshop facilitator/creator as well as over 25 years of professional working experience. I am able to effectively teach not only adult learners, but children as well. Regardless of age, you need to determine which type of learning style each individual has and what will work.
My teaching style is one where I combine patience, efficiency, technology, variety as well as traditional methods. I believe that you need to keep learning fun and if you mix up different methods then it keeps the aspect of learning from getting boring. If a student gets ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I taught for twenty five years at the middle school level mostly in a self contained sixth grade classroom. In addition to teaching reading, English, math, science,and social studies, I taught electives is video filming and remedial reading. In my experience as a teacher, I discovered that all students can learn if they are properly motivated. I found that I could best motivate a student if I found what they were interested in, and what grade level they were working at. I also worked for five years as a substitute teacher.
I believe in individualized teaching. In my sixth grade classroom, I individualized instruction wherever possible. In reading I tested my students and placed them in books at their reading level. I had them write reading summaries and corrected their first drafts. In sixth weeks, I retested and in most instances moved students to a higher level. In my ma ... read more

I strive to include various learning styles when working with children. Some students learn best by listening or writing, while others need movement or tactile experiences to help in comprehension. I believe in keeping students engaged at all times, to minimize wasted time. Every child has potential. A teacher just has to know how to reach each child, and that happens when the students builds trust with the teacher.
I have taught music in public education for the last 15 years. I have been involved in church music ministry for over 25 years, and currently am the church pianist in Stockton, Ca. I love working with children of all ages. Math is my second love and I almost majored in math instead of music. Math was always easy for me in school. Although I don't enjoy writing, I am very strong in written English and enjoy proofreading papers.

More About This Tutor...

I love helping students. With my strong, positive feelings towards higher education, I believe every student should take pride in their studies and enjoy the material; and educational material can only be enjoyed if it is understood! I honestly believe that students need to put in the effort to learn themselves. If there isn't a basis of knowledge to go on (whether understood or not), the student would not benefit from tutoring. A tutor's job is not to TEACH the student, it is to help the student understand the material that has been taught and/or read. I refuse to "do the homework" for the student, because I have learned from experience (mostly personal) that this method does not help a student understand.
Education has always been an important element of my life. I earned a BS in Forensic Chemistry, with a dual major in Criminal Justice. I followed by attending graduate sc ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I enjoy teaching and helping all children. I am a strong believer that all children can be taught all subjects, and should be given the opportunity to do just that. I am always willing to teach the child, in the best way that will help them, whether this be through explanation, or through a hands on approach. Children are our future, and should be given the opportunities to learn.
Throughout my life, I have always felt very strong about achieving a high level of education. As a older sibling to a child that had a learning disability, I felt it was my responsiblity to help him achieve a high school diploma. From the age of six years old to his senior year in high school, I tutored my brother in all subjects, from math and english to electives. From this experience, I was able to help other children improve their level of education as well.

As a credentialed teacher, I have a lot of experience teaching, tutoring, and working with students in other capacities. Before teaching full time, I taught at Sylvan Learning center, substitute taught, and taught as a one on one aide for a child with special needs. As a fifth grade teacher I taught all the required curriculum, coached Jr. High Volleyball, and tutored in after school academies for language arts and English Learners. Last summer I taught algebra to 8th graders who were at risk. Currently I am an After School Program Coordinator for a local elementary school in Modesto.
My teaching style is very relational. I try to make learning come alive through using lots of personal examples that students can relate to. While we need to maintain a standards-based focus to help students succeed on standardized tests, there is much that can be done to help bring learning to li ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I enjoy teaching and interacting with children from all age groups and different backgrounds. I am patient, easy to understand, and seek to enrich my students' experience with academics. I like to be as productive and creative with the time given for each student so that they may gain as much knowledge as they can to master subjects that they are struggling with. I believe each student is different and this calls for utilization of various teaching techniques to enhance their understanding. My goal is to help students realize their potential and help them understand the value of excelling in school and their future.
