More About This Tutor...

I enjoy seeing children discover the world around them in their own ways. Therefore, I teach the importance of working things out until you understand it for yourself. Children will meet and often surpass any goal that is given to them if you show that you believe in them. I use a hands-on approach, as much as possible, with a problem-solving emphasis. I firmly believe that a child remembers things more if he is able to work it out for himself. As a result, I take more of a mentoring position the older the child is. It was in this way that my daughter received both an AA and an AS degree the night she received her high school diploma.
I began teaching at Hesperia Christian in 1995. First, I substituted and then taught part-time, two to four subjects a year: Advanced Math and Drama, 5 years; Biology, 1 year; and Advanced Drama, 3 years. When my son started seventh grade, I b ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Given the proper environment and method(s), any student can and will learn. My role as a tutor is similar to Michelangelo’s role as a sculptor. When he was commissioned to sculpt the “David” statue, the giant block of marble for this work had been waiting in a cathedral-courtyard for almost 40 years. History records Michelangelo as a sculptor who strove to reveal the magnificent 17 foot masterpiece-image that was waiting to emerge. Through a discovery-friendly environment, I approach each tutoring opportunity knowing that I am helping a student to discover the desire to learn which is already present and waiting to emerge from within. It is my goal to have a positive impact on each of my student’s lives.
I hold a BA and MA, both of which are in the field of Biblical Studies. My research experience and written-communication skills have measureable depth because of the years I have i ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I thoroughly enjoy teaching, especially in a tutoring setting. Being able to work with a student in an environment where I can give them all of my attention really allows me to make a huge impact on them. I believe that in order for a student to learn, the student must gain confidence that he or she CAN learn. I am a very kind and helpful person, and implement a vast array of difference techniques to help a student no matter what type of learning works best for them. I feel it is important to work by doing something you love, and I could not imagine doing anything other than teaching.
Since graduating with a bachelors degree in mathematics, I have done a lot of work in the tutoring field. I have worked for two years for Sylvan Learning Center, working in an array of fields, including all areas of mathematics, English, SAT prep, and study skills. I have also worked for Islip T ... read more
