More About This Tutor...

I have taught all core subjects plus art history for over 20 years using various state mandated materials and supplementals I purchased through special ed catalogs. Student outcomes were best with the supplementals due to limited attention span and high interest-low level materials. I use various methods to determine mastery- I create my own written or verbal assessments, writing assignments and have students maintain learning journals. I have a background in educational psychology which is useful in dealing with students with behavioral issues.
I work through positive behavior supports, humor and style to motivate the student to understand the need to learn the core subject matter in order to proceed through high school. I am excellent at reading the needs of the student and creating lessons that are relevant, interesting and fun.

A Little Bit About Me...

I completed my MBA and Juris Doctorate while employed full time, married with two children. It has given me insight into the learning process and what is or isn't a distraction. I have taught over 20 years in several community colleges a full range of business subjects while employed in the accounting function. In addition, I published and managed a Law Review and later a sports magazine nationally.
I enjoy use of the Socratic Method but recognize that in the sciences a more pragmatic process is required. Over the years I have concluded that good teaching requires good analysis of which particular approach works for a student and then alter the materials to fit the need.

Straight out of college, I began substitute teaching and then tutoring individuals. I specialized in English, reading skills, history, psychology, and counseling. Now, I'm a computer tutor, a technical writer on contract, and gone through countless hours on training for these skills, and am now considering a second career as a teacher for non native speakers, for career and computer coursework, and always for writing skills, particularly technical writing. I wrote a book recently called Job Shark, to help people look for jobs, and I'm always amazed at how intimidated people are by computers and technology.
Personally, I prefer hands on - lab style workshops - than endless lecturing and note taking. I like to grasp the student's maturity level and aptitude and go from there. All students need individualized attention, but it is also important to have team building skills inherent in ... read more

Each writing entry is complemented with a variety of processing activities taylored to student learning preferences strengths, and needs.

I have always had a strong drive for educational excellence. My two degrees have helped me become successful in my career as an Operations Manager for an international, multi-million dollar company. While earning my BA in Liberal Studies I have increased my grammatical skills while writing many research papers for an array of subjects. My MBA has allowed me to develop better analytical skills and improve my “out-side-the-box” thinking. Both degrees have helped me become a more confident public speaker.
I have always had a desire to work with children. I have had the opportunity to mentor children while coaching youth sports, tutoring one-on-one, and interning at an elementary school. I am extremely patient, easy to work with and understand that all people have different learning styles. My goal is to guide your student to success and I believe it can be achieved through dedi ... read more

I love English and the writing process and helping other students and children become more comfortable in these areas is very important to me. When I was younger I had trouble with writing and it wasn't until high school that I really began to excel in writing. With my early struggles with writing, I understand how frustrating it can be. I have a very laid back personality and am extremely patient. I believe that I am capable of making learning fun. The idea of helping another student in a field that I love so much is amazing.
At Bradley University I was an English major with a Journalism concentration. I love writing and one of the things I enjoy most is the proof reading and editing stage of writing. I can help with any kind of writing necessary from proposals, to research projects to lab reports and journalism articles. Throughout high school I tutored other students after schoo ... read more

While attending the University of Chicago (2003-2007), I completed a rigorous curriculum characterized by both advanced coursework in mathematics and the social sciences. Each year leading up to graduation, I served as a mathematics tutor within the Cook County School district. I specialized in Algebra, Pre-Calculus, and Calculus. Following my return to Southern California after graduation, I accepted a position as a bilingual instructional assistant within the Saddleback Valley School district. Within this capacity, I assist students with Algebra and Calculus in both Spanish and English. Furthermore, having studied abroad extensively in Italy during college, I am proficient in both Italian and Latin as well.
In that I have been tutoring consistently for the past seven years, I believe I have developed some highly effective techniques for enabling each individual student to re ... read more
