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.

More About This Tutor...

My teaching style focuses on the student and his/her struggles. I really try to make the student understand the topic at hand and how to study it effectively. Studying techniques are very important and I introduce those techniques to the student. I really guide the student step-by-step through his/her struggles and to build their confidence. I change their mentality to a positive one. I enjoy working with others and I use all the resources that I can to make the student understand the topic. I usually give extra practice problems and I really challenge the students thinking pattern to make sure they understand the topic.
I have experience working with children and tutoring high school students on multiple subjects (math and science). I have also tutored in subjects such as economics and how to study effectively. I have taught subjects in small group settings as well. I hol ... read more

More About This Tutor...

Education and helping others get the most out of their scholastic experience has always been very important to me. My tutoring background began at Merced Community College, where I taught college students in English, Spanish, business law, mathematics, and chemistry. Reviewing essays and helping others improve their writing skills is a passion of mine. I continued my education at Fresno State University and there taught Spanish and mathematics while earning my undergraduate degree in accounting. I also instructed a lab class on Internet web site design and development. I've been in the finance industry for over 11 years as an accountant, so I can help with most business-related subjects, too.
I've honed my coaching style to develop many of the tools needed to reach students in every age group because people never stop learning, so I am prepared to assist others wherever they f ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I come from a family with a rich history in teaching. I have several cousins, aunts and great aunts who work and have worked as teachers in the State of California. Like them, it is my dream and goal to make a positive difference in the lives of the students I teach and tutor. I have achieved this in my teaching experience by providing a welcoming and accepting educational environment where students are actively involved in the learning process. Certain theorists have helped me gain a broad understanding of the learning experience, which has helped me develop my teaching style. Two theories who have influenced my teaching style are Vygotsky's theory in social cognition and Piaget’s theory of mental development. These two theories have influenced my approach to teaching and have helped me to understand the learning process and my student's potential.

More About This Tutor...

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. Back in the U.S., I taught an intervention class for struggling readers in the second and third grades. I also tutored for students after school in their homes. Currently, I am a second grade teacher at La Joya Elementary School in Salinas, CA. I also taught kindergarten at the school for two years.
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 s ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I enjoy teaching and helping all children. I am a strong believer that all children can be taught all subjects, and should be given the opportunity to do just that. I am always willing to teach the child, in the best way that will help them, whether this be through explanation, or through a hands on approach. Children are our future, and should be given the opportunities to learn.
Throughout my life, I have always felt very strong about achieving a high level of education. As a older sibling to a child that had a learning disability, I felt it was my responsiblity to help him achieve a high school diploma. From the age of six years old to his senior year in high school, I tutored my brother in all subjects, from math and english to electives. From this experience, I was able to help other children improve their level of education as well.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have always been passionate about language and thinking critically and I take great joy in discussing and sharing with others. From a tutoring perspective this means I am always energetic and optimistic because I enjoy the work. I am competent in my subject areas and organized because I like to make sure that time spent is time spent productively. But foremost of all my traits as a tutor is that I am entirely adaptive to a student's needs. Some students need a more professional teacher figure to work with, others need a peer or a mentor, finding that need and filling it is something I excel at.
During my time at Cal State Stanislaus, where I earned my bachelor's degree in English, I was selected to tutor other students because of my mastery of grammar and writing. I spent two years working for the University's Writing Center. I tutored ESL students and Freshmen on how best to imp ... read more

I strive to include various learning styles when working with children. Some students learn best by listening or writing, while others need movement or tactile experiences to help in comprehension. I believe in keeping students engaged at all times, to minimize wasted time. Every child has potential. A teacher just has to know how to reach each child, and that happens when the students builds trust with the teacher.
I have taught music in public education for the last 15 years. I have been involved in church music ministry for over 25 years, and currently am the church pianist in Stockton, Ca. I love working with children of all ages. Math is my second love and I almost majored in math instead of music. Math was always easy for me in school. Although I don't enjoy writing, I am very strong in written English and enjoy proofreading papers.

I believe that students can reach their potential if they are given the tools that they need. My job is to be the toolbox for them. As a special education teacher, I adapt my teaching style to meet the needs of the students. I believe that a child should be given a vast amount of positive reinforcement and always be spoken to and taught with respect. I also believe children need boundaries set that will consistently be reinforced. Our job is to teach them those boundaries but to do so with compassion. It truly makes my day, when I see a student that finally "gets" what we are discussing or learning. Teaching is a great joy for me.

I believe in individualized teaching. In my sixth grade classroom, I individualized instruction wherever possible. In reading I tested my students and placed them in books at their reading level. I had them write reading summaries and corrected their first drafts. In sixth weeks, I retested and in most instances moved students to a higher level. In my math classes, I tested students and had them begin at the level that they needed to master. If a student could not add, I had him work on his addition skills. I moved students to the next skill level once they had mastered the level that they were working on. Of course, I did group teaching in my classroom, but I individualized wherever possible.
I taught for twenty five years at the middle school level mostly in a self contained sixth grade classroom. In addition to teaching reading, English, math, science,and social studies, I t ... read more

In my 12 years of teaching experience I provided instruction at different levels from secondary class to college students. I taught English Literature and Language at undergraduate level as well. Teaching Chinese and Saudi students gave me extensive multi-cultural experience. During the last ten years I have tutored students in English literature, writing, history, and the arts.
I believe that every child is different from the other in learning style and capacity. As a teacher I think it is really important to give suitable and desired space to student to flourish, and students must be provided with appropriate surrounding to learn and discover their hidden potential. I firmly believe in eclectic approach to teaching as one method cannot suit all teaching situations. As an English teacher, I understand the importance of teaching strategies like lead time, group work, peer review, a ... read more
