My first student teaching experience was in a preschool. The classroom was very play based and not very structured. I learned how to communicate with the students while they were playing and was able to help them learn through scaffolding I learned how to model positive behaviors to the children and stay away from the negative. I student taught in a preschool classroom. This classroom was inclusive and included many different kinds of learners. There were ten gifted children, two children with autism, one child with epilepsy, and the rest who were at benchmark. This was a great experience because I was placed with such an incredible seasoned mentor teacher. She taught me that being calm kept the children calm. I learned exactly how to plan, attended meetings, and really got a feel for the teaching profession. The lessons that I planned had to suit many different learning styles, so many ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have an extensive educational background in instructing and teaching students in grades K-12. With work experience in public, private, homeschool, and charter school settings, I have acquired the ability to coordinate scholastic lesson plans and promote student achievement by recognizing an individual's personal learning style and adapting my teaching style accordingly. I am able to teach and tutor in multiple subjects; however, my preferred student age group is elementary education.
Helping children to learn to the best of their ability is so rewarding to me! I have a natural rapport with students. They sense that I am genuinely interested in assisting them to achieve academic success. My personality is one that nurtures and encourages. When a student of mine masters a subject or overcomes a learning challenge, I truly am overjoyed. My positive spirit and sincere desire to m ... read more

The student's needs come first, so I always teach based on their long-term goals. Learning music should be fun, so I encourage this while pushing student's to be the best. Music has been the most important thing in my life for all my life. I love to bring that passion out in my students. Flute is a tool, a wonderful tool, for speaking the language of music.
I am a working, free-lance flutist here in LA. I have my BM degree in flute performance from CSUN, and have been playing for 28 years. I have always been the top or one of the top players in all venues I have played for. I currently play for many orchestras in southern california. I have been teaching all levels of flute for 20 years now. I also teach beginning to intermediate piano. Over a span of nearly 30 years, I have studied with some amazing flutists/teachers, and learned some wonderful teaching techniques.

As a top-ranked liberal arts college graduate, I have always valued education. I have a Bachelor of Arts Degree in Music and Religious Studies, which has enabled my writing, reading, and analytical skills to flourish. I have written multiple research papers and laboratory reports. I also have an extensive foundation of math, science, and English literature. Through my experience as an English instructor in South Korea, and as a volunteer tutor in all subjects in the local community, I have taught students from elementary school through high school. Topics have included reading, writing essays, analyzing articles/research papers, test-taking skills, math, etc.
In terms of my teaching style, I greatly believe in positive reinforcement. I love working with all children, and find it rewarding when I’m able to help them understand and excel in a particular area or subject. I love to mot ... read more
