Hate busywork? Me too! Why not make it MATTER?!

I began my teaching career even before graduating High School. I started volunteering my time with homework help and study skills at the local Boys and Girls Club when I was 16 followed by teaching Remedial English to a small group of ELL students at a partnering elementary school. During college, I continued my passion by joining an organization that teaches life and social skills to developmentally delayed young adults. After graduating from SFSU, I persued my TEFL certification which allowed me to live and teach in China for 6 months, while developing fun an innovative curriculum that allowed young students to start acquiring English skills from scratchet. Since then, I have continued designing hands-on curriculum for English, Literature, Science, Math, Dance, Visual Arts, Life Skills, and College Prep. I have also been a manager, coordinator, coach, and director at several after ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I enjoy working with students of all ages. I like to get to know the student I am tutoring and what their individual learning style is like. I adapt to how they learn best and go from there. I am patient, and willing to do what it takes to encourage learning and success.
I have always been eager to learn and help others learn as well. I especially love the sciences, but have always loved and excelled in school. I have previous tutoring experience, and love when new opportunities arise. I recently obtained a BS in Biology from Simpson University. This provided me with a significant background in both the sciences and in math. I have tutored high school student math courses, history courses, and science courses.

More About This Tutor...

As a recent graduate of one of the top-rated business schools in the nation, I clearly enjoy learning and therefore want to share that with others through tutoring. I have worked with a multitude of students and therefore have learned how to adapt my teaching style to best suit the student’s needs. I’m a firm believer that one can learn anything if they are willing to put in the time and effort. I once thought I would never understand math and later earned an A in a college level calculus course as a high school senior. While tutoring students I believe it is also important to instill confidence in the student and give them the tools to help them succeed on their own.
My love for English Literature has allowed me to flourish in English class starting in elementary school. As a freshman in high school I was elected to be a peer tutor. I held the volunteer job for all four years of m ... read more

My vast experience has allowed me to perfect many different teaching styles. All children are different and there are many different ways to teach them. I like students to have hands-on learning so they can get more out of what is being taught. I believe in visuals and realia whenever possible. I think that songs and movement are very effective tools in teaching. I am a patient person with a great sense of humor that only wants to provide the best educational experience for all students.
My passion for providing students with an excellent education has led me to 28 years of teaching experience. I hold a Bachelor's of Science in Education and a Masters of Arts in Special Education. Throughout my career, I have worked with a diverse population of students and have become proficient in designing lessons that accommodate multiple intelligences and incorporate aspects of varied cu ... read more

I love teaching and working with all childern. I believe that all childern have the abilty to learn. I am a believer that childern can learn anything if given the chance. As a child who grew up with a mild disabilty i know how hard it is to have teachers who belive in you. now that i am voluteering at a special needs preschool, i treat all childern with respect and kindness that they deserve. All childern have the potiental to suceed and become an important part of society. I belive that i can make a diffrence in a childs life if i take the time to indivually learn the needs and gifts of each of my childern and consentrate on this, instead of the childerns diffrence.

When you meet me in person you will immediately feel that I am someone who relates well with children and teens. I get to know students on a personal level and find out their learning style and modes of learning. I also assess their current skill level and knowledge of the subject so that I know where from where to start. There are often "holes" of information that are missing from students that can cause increasing problems as lessons build upon knowledge previously learned. Tutoring helps to fill those holes and to help kids find success! I am exceedingly patient, flexible and am very professional. I truly care about each success and frustration in my students and I believe in kids when everyone else has given up on them.
I am an educator who has experience in a variety of teaching environments with a range of student ability, needs, ages and cultures. I hold a Clear California ... read more

I have over twenty years of experience teaching reading. I completed all of the Houghton/Mifflin Language Arts training sessions that taught California teachers how to be expert Language Arts teachers. I have also attended many Language Arts training sessions through my school district and county education offices. I also ran Language Arts and ESL Intervention programs at my school. I have a B.S. and a Master's degree in Education, and I am CLAD Certified. I love teaching and get along very well with children. I respect them and I know how to inspire them to do their best work.
I believe in "Assertive Discipline". This style uses lots of verbal praise, rewards and incentives. It keeps learning on a positive, moving forward track. This style of teaching is never negative. It encourages learning through engaging, age-appropriate, research-based, fun activities. It starts by assessing ... read more
