A Little Bit About Me...

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 taught the third grade for 14 years as a public school teacher. This gave me skills I use today teaching one on one with students in all subject areas. I have been tutoring for over 10 years. 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. I am not trained in teaching autistic children, but I do have experience working with autistic children. 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

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

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

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.
