A Little Bit About Me...

Tutoring my fellow classmates was an integral part of my college experience. At Yuba College, I tutored math and chemistry in the College Success Center for two school years. I was in demand, as even fellow tutors would seek my help. I was also requested by my physics professor to tutor physics in the Hard Math Cafe on campus. While at UCI, where I graduated Cum Laude with a mathematics degree, I would often help fellow students, even during the professor's office hours when the professor was busy with another student. I enjoy imparting my skills upon those I help, resulting in increased insight and understanding for those tutored.
Knowledge and skills are most permanent when we discover and create for ourselves, so I like to be a guide that leads the student to their own conclusions, rather than take over and lecture. I will be there to direct and support the student; I like ... read more

My main goal working with children is to give them the help and support they need to achieve their own goals. Education is of paramount importance for a child's future, in order to not only establish financial security, but so that they may find a path in life. I know that in order for a child to find success, they need an adult who can listen, be patient, and understand each child's personal needs. Every child has a different background, temperament, and personallity that is continuously molded by the adults and peers in their life. As a tutor I know it is my responsibility to provide each child encouragement while doing the best possible to clearly and easily explain and teach.

As an educator, it is my job to recognize each child’s individual learning-style and adapt my teaching-style accordingly. I will build upon each child’s abilities and strengths, and work to improve upon his/her limitations. By reinforcing the student’s positive habits and capabilities, I hope, not only, to assist with the subject at hand, but to encourage each child’s desire to meet his/her full potential in every setting, academic or otherwise. Combining my comprehension of behavioral psychology and my vast experience with children, I believe that I am well-qualified to assist any child in attaining his or her educational goals. Further, I believe that learning can (and should) be fun, and hope to instill that in each of my students.
For the past 10 years, I have worked in my community, helping to better the lives of children. At age 15, I began mentoring young girls and volunteer ... read more

I am a believer of diversity. I don't believe that learning is "One size fits all". I am aware that children come from a variety of backgrounds and their home and outside environment contribute to their success. I am kind, very patient, and I have the ability to motivate students. I will always encourage and not bring students down with harsh words. I will help them find the learning style that suits them the best. I will strive to help them through any academic problems and turn them into solutions they can carry and apply to the rest of their lives. Every child has the potential to be successful, they just need a chance to flourish. I believe I can help guide them in the right direction.

It has been my experience that students are more successful if they can apply and practice any theory to which they may be exposed. Given this notion, I try to provide real world applications to whatever concept I introduce, whether teaching in a classroom setting or tutoring one on one. If this approach is not appropriate, I will break down the concept into the simplest possible learning steps. I will use whatever approach that best blends the complex mix of individual learning style and subject matter to achieve a successful learning experience for my student.
As a business and computer educator, I have worked with fourth—sixth grade students, high school youth, and adults. During three decades at Oroville High School and Oroville Adult Education and Career Center, I have taught and used Microsoft Word, Excel, Access, PowerPoint, Publisher and Outlook as well as Accounting, fi ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have been tutoring for almost 12 years at the local community where I am also a Sunday school teacher. I have tutored in Math, Science, Literature and English. My experience involves tutoring students of all ages, from K-12. I have a Bachelors degree in Business Management from San Jose State University.
I love working with all children. I enjoy teaching so much that I do that as a volunteer, in order to spend time in the learning environment. I love to help students with any problems or obtacles that they are facing in their studies and with their current curriculum. I have also helped students prepare for standardized test.

More About This Tutor...

After achieving a B.S. in Business Administration with an accounting concentration in 2006, I worked as a Senior Associate for a public accounting firm in Sacramento. I worked in teams supervising and training staff right out of college for several years. However, my true passion is teaching, leading me to a career change. My tutoring experience in high school, coaching experience in college, and recent camp counseling experience this past summer has provided me with many exciting and valuable teaching moments that motivated this change! I was born to teach! I am currently working toward achieving a Teaching Credential in Mathematics from CSU Sacramento.
Ever since I was young, I have been aware of sincerity in people, whether teacher or other adult. I found myself trusting and respecting those that treated me as a person with an individual mind rather than a senseless child ... read more

I love to teach, there is nothing more self rewarding then helping a person who is struggling to achieve something and helping them with their goals. I believe all students can find academic success somewhere if given the correct opportunities and surroundings. I firmly believe that I have been educated by some of the best and these educators have made a world of difference in my life and expectations. I would like to help students in the same way my educators helped me.
As a college graduate, I was extremely driven to achieve a high level of academic excellence. I earned my bachelors degree in Communication Studies with a minor in Philosophy. These have enabled me to have an understanding of many areas of Language Arts, History, and English. As a Comm Studies major I was held to a high standard of technical writing with essay and would always use credible sources for my researc ... read more
