A Little Bit About Me...

I have extensive experience in business management, accounting, marketing, sales, training, lending, and financial analysis through my twenty-five year career in the automobile industry. With demonstrated leadership abilities through my community involvement as a former chairman of the planning commission for a small city, the president of an aviators association, and the local representative for a volunteer support network for the national organization of pilots, the Airplane Owners and Pilots Association (AOPA), I can bring talents to bear that can support a company’s plan to make headway in the current chaotic economic climate.
I follow the Federal Aviation Administration provided materials for aeronautical instruction. I have provided flight and ground instruction to students from the teenage years to senior citizens. Additionally I have provided recurrent training to experie ... read more

As a graduate of Sociology I have gained a lot of knowledge about how society functions. I was interested in this area of study to understand peoples because I have always had compassion for others. I have participated in a 4 unit class where i taught Spanish to 8-11 year old children and it consisted of developing a plan that included songs and dancing to learn Spanish in a fun and animated way. I have done research on homelessness, and had an internship with a non profit that provides social services for those in need. Working closely with this organization has helped me assess peoples needs and use problem solving skills to help individuals in a variety of situations.
I enjoy teaching and working with children and feel that it is important to understand that not all students learn the same way. I feel that my college experience has taught me to discover the ways I learn and und ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I graduated from Cal Poly Pomona with a BS in Aerospace Engineering and a Minor in Mathematics in 2004. Before entering college I tutored High School students in both Algebra I and II and Geometry. During college I donated time in the math tutoring center helping students with a variety of math courses such as Algebra, Probability and Statistics, and Calculus I. I have worked as a Mechanical/Structural Engineer for the past 6 years utilizing my Physics and Mathematics skills daily.
I am a patient, generous, and considerate person and I love watching children and adults reach their unknown potential. It gives me pride in knowing that I have played a part in helping others achieve success. I realize everyone learns differently and a part of teaching is being flexible and aware of others abilities to learn through various methods.

I have taught and tutored hundreds of children while substitute teaching. I have found that my style is one which tries to involve the student in the learning process as much as possible. I love using volunteers to read aloud and participate in the learning process. I feel that treating each child with respect and as individuals increases their own abilities and improves their self-confidence as well.

A Little Bit About Me...

My teaching style is very Socratic. I rarely give answers to students. I love to have them search and discover the answers on their own. This involves a lot of questions and guiding the student to the correct answer. When students discover the answer on their own it is much more rewarding and long lasting for them. I firmly believe in fostering critical thinking and building students' logical reasoning skills. I constantly remind them that the skills they are developing with me are not just valuable in math but stretch into real world situations as well and will help them throughout their entire life.
I tutoring when in high school. I continued to tutor while I was getting my undergrad. I tutored college students from my college and those surrounding me. I have taught at an adult school for a summer while I was getting me credential. It was very rewarding helping people receive the ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I use a teaching paradigm that stresses the importance of student's needs and learning styles. Every student brings unique skills and perspectives to the classroom and tutor session, and because of this I have found that my teaching strategy changes per student and per teaching situation. For some students, being taught using the socratic method works well, while others like to take notes, absorb the material, then ask questions later during office hours. I have found that understanding student's learning methods have helped me to become a better teacher.
As a student at Cal Poly San Luis Obispo I was interested in English education, especially in terms of helping students improving their reading and writing skills. I followed this interest by tutoring at the university writing lab, as well as doing frequent one-on-one tutor sessions with students in need. At the end of each quarte ... read more
