I am a key believer that education helps a child flourish throughout life. I am patient, laid back, and sincere and want to do all that I can to make sure that a child understands the subject at hand.
For many years I have worked with youth, and I hope to continue doing so. I love children and have a passion for mentoring and educating. For the past two years I worked at a YMCA after-school program tutoring children, and assisting in the supervision of the program. I recently finished completing my bachelor’s degree in business management from Liberty University, and have a solid understanding of English, Math, and Science.

More About This Tutor...

Teaching can be a most wonderful adventure. I believe every child can learn. At times students or overwhelming with new concepts, and they need to be encouraged, and praise until they can accomplish the task at hand. I enjoy seeing the appearence of awareness on a childs face, when they have accomplished a goal, or solved a problem they had difficulty solving. I believe tutoring a child can be a powerful tool, and it can also unleash a potential genius.
As a graduate, I've been very blessed to have received a degree in Business Communication. In college I learned how to become a better educator, and communicate with them on the highest level. Although, I tutor in all of the academic areas, I also enjoy helping my student appreciate the art of becoming a good writer, and thinkers. My students are also encouraged to read for relaxation, and entertainment. Making the education process ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I love teaching students to discover the answers to questions and problems that otherwise eluded them. I am a firm believer in student-centered learning, meaning the students are given the opportunity to research, discover, and progress through various techniques. Providing the appropriate learning environment is essential for a student to fully experience their potential. Therefore, I gladly provide each student with information that will give them the opportunity to produce better study habits and test taking abilities. I believe using these tools will provide students with a life long learning advantage that will follow them through all aspects of their lives.
As an educator, I have been given the opportunity to teach in various venues and modalities. Through these opportunities I have taught adults, children and teenagers using many techniques and styles. My education and exp ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I enjoy working with students, regardless of their age or capabilities. I am a patient and understanding individual who strives to provide what students need to succeed. My method revolves around helping students find their own voice, to question and think for themselves, and to guide them in discovering and making decisions of their very own. Individuality is key for success in a students' education. I also incorporate the prior knowledge and background experiences students have to further their understanding of the world around them, as well as their education.

More About This Tutor...

I am very passionate about teaching. I want to do it for the rest of my life so it is something that I enjoy. I love working with children and teenagers. I want to be an inspiration to my students. I want to motivate them to love learning and to find subjects that interest them. I like to teach through discussion and interaction because I believe that the best way to learn something is to analyze it yourself. In this way children and teenagers can learn and can, possibly, find a deeper meaning in what they are doing and as a result enjoy it. I also try to motivate my students to take control of their own education, to think critically, and to feel better about themselves through learning.
I am currently working towards my BA in Humanities at San Jose State University. After I complete my BA I will enroll in a program to get my teaching credential in language arts. I have wr ... read more

I worked as a career counselor for 16 years. I was able to be a tutor for 6 years during this period. During those 6 years, I worked with high school students and tutured them in basic math. This period was very rewarding. Seeing the students go from third or fourth grade level of math to seventh or eigth grade level of math was a natural high for this students. This accomplishment made the students believe more in themselves,in what they can do and it opened more doors for a better future in thier personal lives. To me this was the ultimate experience that a person can have tutoring a human being.
As a college graduate, I want to keep using my skills learned while I was in College. I believe that teaching is a wonderful experience in such a way that you are able to touch someone's life by teaching them the subject matter involved. By teaching them, your are like a bridge t ... read more
