I have worked with preschoolers and children K-8. Furthermore, I have tutored in Reading Comprehension, Math, Writing Skills, and Spanish. I have worked as an Office Manager, where I used Word, Excel, Powerpoint and Data Entry programs. Tutoring children in Reading Comprehension gave me great satisfaction because most of them made great improvements, and were able to raise their grades in this subject. I also taugh phonics, vocabulary and grammar to English Learners. Moreover, I teach children ages 10-13 bible classes. I volunteer at St. Joachim Church in Madera California. I also tutored students 7-8 Reading Comprehension, Writing Skills and Math (Basic Math, Algebra). I hold a Substitute Teaching Permit, and I was able to pass the CBEST exams, which consists of Reading Comprehension, Math, and Writing Skills.

Hands-On Learning

I love to interact with children. I believe that children should be involved with their school work. Hands on work and visual interactions help when certain curriculums don't sink in. Involving children to learn, beyond taking notes, helps them understand difficult subject and also helps them retain them better to memory.
I'm currently enrolled in Kaplan University pursuing my certification to become a Registered Dental Assistant with Extended Functions. I have completed High School and obtained my Diploma in 2014. I am currently tutoring a middle school student (8th grade) in all given subjects. I range from simple homework help to comprehension of certain subjects.

More About This Tutor...

I am kind of new to teaching. I have taught my little brother everything he knows, and I've been told I have a really good way of teaching. Younger students catch on very quickly to what it is I am teaching. If they don't catch on quick, then no problem. I'm very patient and never give up until a student understands the concept. I am very easy to get along with, so the student will have no problems with me. Altogether I am a very patient smart person eager to help new students learn; and if you want to have fun while learning, then I am the perfect tutor for you.

A Little Bit About Me...

My teaching style is straight and to the point. My goal is to make the kids understand that the only thing holding them back is themselves. Hard work and a desire to learn will win every time. I LOVE the moment when the kids "get it", when they become confident in learning.
When I entered college I was immediately drawn to tutor my peers as needed. I worked with the single mom's program at IVC and also did job coaching for the City of Long Beach Disabled program. Once I graduated from college I had the opportunity to join the Boys & Girls Clubs, specifically designing educational and technology programs. I enjoyed tutoring about 50 youth a day. As a result some parents requested that I run a special off hours program at their middle school to tutor the ADHD kids. Every child in that program raised their grades 60% over the course of the semester. Since that time I have honed ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have an informal, friendly style to my tutoring methods. I feel that having a comfortable and friendly environment helps the learning process. I use clear and simple language to explain the material. I also feel it is extremely important to be a good listener, to be fully understanding of the students areas of strengths and weaknesses. In my experience, I have found it helpful to have the students demonstrate what they have learned to determine proficiency.
I recently graduated, with honors and special recognition, from Merced Community College with an AA in Business Administration. I officially worked as a tutor at the college, tutoring upper level math. However, unofficially, I tutored many classmates during my two years at the college, in various subjects. Prior to returning to school, I worked as an Office Technician for the California Department of Corections, Parole ... read more

I have always had a passion for teaching students who face challenges in their lives. My focus is on the student and his lifelong education above test scores. I know that all children can learn and work hard to connect with each of my students and to individualize their educational experience.
During college, I worked as a home-school Spanish, Language Arts and History teacher for students ages seven through fourteen. I volunteered in classrooms, tutored, and provided childcare for children with special needs. I studied Spanish and abroad. Upon graduation, I began my teaching career in L.A. where I taught kindergarten. After three years, I decided to teach abroad and moved to a small Chinese city where I taught preschool.

I have always been interested in teaching other people who are struggling to keep up with their school work. I acknowledge their difficulty with the subject because it takes time and effort to master the curriculum. As a student, I believe it would be a good experience to teach what I learned and passed on to other people. Therefore, my goal is to provide the best education possible before I graduate and pursue my career in engineering.
Currently as a student in merced college, I am pursuing my degree in chemical engineering, which has enable me to take courses heavily in math and science courses. Therefore, I believe I have the experience to teach various math courses such as college algebra and calculus 1; with AP college exam passed in Calculus AB. General chemistry is also my strength as a tutor. I also have foreign languages capability that includes chinese and japanese.

I have experience teaching English Language Learners as well as students with a variety of learning disabilities.
My philosophy is that all children can learn. They may not learn at the same rate or in the same way, but everyone is capable of learning. As a teacher, I take pride in helping students discover their love for learning by using manipulatives and other fun learning activities. I realize that some students are visual learners, while others are kinesthetic or auditory learners. I like to set realistic goals for the children and hel ... read more

I graduated with a degree in English while devoting time teaching kids and even adults martial arts. Also, I have tutored many of my younger cousins during their elementary school years and currently middle school as well. I have published two poetry books and am planning on writing a third book.

I don't have any certifications or awards with computers, however, i have excellent knowledge with them inside and out.
When I teach I also learn from my students. I am open to ideas and creativity. I am patient and I believe a child should never be forced to learn. Learning should be exciting and it is the righ ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

My teaching style is very unique. I start off by just getting to know the student and having them get to know and trust me. I then build on that trust factor while helping the students with their homework. I connect well with students and they trust me. In the end, it seems to be the best way the students I work with learn and finish their work. Learning should be fun and not boring. It should be interactive and not just book work. If a student can experience learning first hand, they're bound to acquire enough knowledge to help them succeed.
I am a Fresno State graduate with my BA Degree in Liberal Studies. I'm currently in the Multiple-Subject Credential Program. I have two years experience tutoring by working for the Madera Adult School CBET Program. I tutor all grades and all subjects. I also have tutored for a semester during my Junior year of high school.

I Believe: Every student can succeed. Each student is unique. Students should have individual accountability for learning. Goals need to be set so the students know what direction they are going. Cooperative learning is a way for students to be involved in the learning process. Curriculum should have a connection in students’ lives as well as be progressive and motivational. Consistency allows the students to develop a routine and know what is expected from them. Communication is the key in running an effective classroom. Students should have a part in establishing classroom rules and consequences. Classroom management, with an effective discipline plan, is essential to student and teacher success. Classrooms and schools should be student friendly. Teachers should be a guide to learning and help develop life long learners. Teachers should have high expectations for students ... read more

I am currently working on my Master's degree in Elementary Education at the University of Nevada, Reno.

My undergraduate degree has given me a strong background in cultural studies and a good understanding of how different backgrounds can affect academic performance and success.
