My comments on tutoring Reading : I have a college level education (third year undergrad) in all English areas, however I feel that it would be most efficient to use my knowledge to tutor elementary and high school level English.

I have tutored many young students throughout my life, and have been tutored myself. I do find it easier to work with younger children; however, I am capable of assisting those of high school or college age students who are struggling. I have helped young children learn how to read, write, count, and tell time on an analog clock. Though I do not have strictly professional tutoring experience (I have never been paid for my services) I know how to identify student's learning style(s) and work with them a way that they will benefit from. I believe that children and adult education is extremely important, and I can also assist those of any age who would like to learn to read and write.

A Little Bit About Me...

In January of 2012, I gained teaching experience as a part-time English instructor for Korean exchange students (ages ranging from 13 to 17 years old). My responsibility for this job was to provide the students with appropriate exercises and assignments to assist them in improving their English reading skills. I also gave lessons in vocabulary and assignments to help them better understand the proper usage of the vocabulary words. These assignments also served to teach the students about American culture and traditions. In March of 2013, I received my MA in English from CSU, Bakersfield. I also published my first thesis. From May of 2013 to September of 2013, I gained some experience working with children (ages ranging from 6 to 22) with Autism and like disorders as an instructional aide. My responsibility for this job was to provide direct one on one or group instruction ... read more

Hi,I'm Cheryl. I would like to invite you to allow me to TUTOR your child in your home, or library. I have extensive experience tutoring students from Kindergarten through 4th grade.

I also taught for 4 years teaching 2nd grade students in an after school program called "THINK TOGETHER." Teachers in this program provided assistance to students with homework, reading skills, language arts, mathematics, and art.

My extensive experience teaching elementary aged students has given me a plethora of strategies to accommodate for each student's individual learning needs. ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I'm constantly asking questions of students and I'm never willing to accept "I don't know" as an answer. I encourage students to think independently and critically of their tasks at hand so they don't just excel when a tutor or some type of authority figure is in the room. I love working with kids and will typically take a serious but gentle approach to fostering skills.
I have years worth of both instructing large-scale classes as well as one-on-one tutoring. After graduating from UCLA in 2005 with a Bachelor's in English, I taught English composition, speaking, and grammar in Beijing, China for almost two years. Since that time, I have also tutored high school-aged students in the areas of critical reading of literary texts, essay writing techniques, as well as creative writing.

Organized, encouraging,patient teacher with 10 years experie

Experience My working as a full time teacher for 10 years in my back home led me to get more experience in curriculum development, monitoring, evaluation and assessment. Working with both genders of different age groups gave me the opportunity to be more resourceful, tactful and responsive .And choosing a job related to my major provided the students with effective learning environment.It has also given me enough confidence to feel ready to work as a part/full time teacher.On top of all, the point that makes me distinguished among others is my capability to help the organization achieve their objectives as economically as possible, which is nowadays the main concern for organizations.

A Little Bit About Me...

Interactive. My goal is to help students become self-sufficient, not tell them how to do things. My teaching style revolves around guiding students for the first few steps before seeing how far they can go on their own.
I will have graduated from the University of California, Irvine as of June, 2015 with a B.A. in Cognitive Sciences. Throughout high school and college I have had an extensive history with writing and literary fiction, both in reading and writing. My last teaching job was as an instructor in martial arts for both kids and adult classes. Before that, I was a private tutor for two years. Currently I am in the process of finishing a genre fiction manuscript.

Need Piano Lessons?

I am a 19 year old college student who is living in Murrieta for the next few summer months, and attends Cal State Fullerton. I have taken piano lessons for over 11 years now, and have a few years experience in teaching/tutoring in piano. My major concentration in college is Studio Art, and have also had experience in teaching art classes through M.A.D. Studio. Through experience in college and high school, I am also very familiar with Microsoft Office programs, and have helped those who are struggling in the newer editions of these MS programs.
My teaching style is not entirely concrete, for I feel that it depends on the maturity of the student and willingness to learn the subject at hand. I am very patient when I need to be, and my main goal is to simply make sure each student walks away knowing what they needed to learn.

Humanities teacher/tutor

As a substitute teacher for social studies and English literature, in both honors and regular classes, I facilitated learning by following the lesson plans. Utilizing student-centered learning techniques, like asking questions and encouraging discussions, I helped create an atmosphere where learning became interesting and happened naturally. By promoting and stimulating guided discussions and critical thinking, I was able to inspire interest in the students for further study and research in a subject.
My expertise is in humanities. I combine original writings from ancient (Plato, Aristotle, Sophocles, etc.) and more modern (Shakespeare, Dostoyevsky, Tolstoy, etc.) authors who have shaped our world. By utilizing the Socratic method, I promote critical thinking and engage the student in discussion. My ultimate goal is to help the student not only learn and master the subject, b ... read more
