A Little Bit About Me...

I have been in ballet for 13 years, classically trained. I've been an artist ever since 2006 and I sell my art. I took chemistry my sophomore year and took the notes that mattered and passed each test with an A. English has always been my high point, as I understand grammar and spelling. I am also involved musically at school in the Madrigals choir.

Proficiency is acquired with methodical steps.

My approach is simple: assess the student's academic weaknesses, review the strengths, then teach the new material in order to bridge the content or skill. "Scaffolding" is the best means by which to teach so that the student understands the significance of the lesson. Too often, teachers play sage-on-stage, thereby neglecting to connect what the student already knows with the new material.
I am a credential-holding elementary school teacher with experience ranging from Kindergarten through 6th grade. Also, I have tutored children and adults in English language arts, from basic grammar to college composition writing. Further, I tutor other academic subjects: social studies, history, literature, general science, basic computer skills and creative writing. I hope that I can be of use to you!

More About This Tutor...

I'm constantly asking questions of students and I'm never willing to accept "I don't know" as an answer. I encourage students to think independently and critically of their tasks at hand so they don't just excel when a tutor or some type of authority figure is in the room. I love working with kids and will typically take a serious but gentle approach to fostering skills.
I have years worth of both instructing large-scale classes as well as one-on-one tutoring. After graduating from UCLA in 2005 with a Bachelor's in English, I taught English composition, speaking, and grammar in Beijing, China for almost two years. Since that time, I have also tutored high school-aged students in the areas of critical reading of literary texts, essay writing techniques, as well as creative writing.

A Little Bit About Me...

I graduated from University of California Riverside and received my bachelor's degree in Mathematics. Not only I gain more understanding in Math, I also spent most of my time with my fellow classmates helping each other for our Math assignments in college. During the spring 2010, I tutored one student who is struggling in Algebra 1 and helped her pass the class.
I love Math, and I would love to have the opportunity to teach children and adults especially students from k-12th grade who are struggling in Math. My teaching style would be to teach Math as simple and understandable as possible. I would also make my teaching style to be fun but my priority is to tutor students to be successful in their education.

More About This Tutor...

Tutoring is a profession which I have enjoyed for over nine years, often while teaching in the classroom or online, concurrently. I was able to teach multi-subjects to college students because I excelled in all subjects myself, receiving numerous scholarship awards and honors. I chose after school tutoring as my extra duty assignment while teaching middle school and high school. I enjoy tutoring students because I experience the moment of “Ah ha, now I get it!” with them.
I am eclectic in my approaches towards teaching, ranging from Montessori and Classroom Without Walls, to Behaviorist and Cognitive approaches. I use what is observable, measurable, and works. I am always prepared to pull a rabbit out of my hat, and I always prepare additional alternative lesson plans in case an approach does not seem doable. I begin tutor sessions with interviews to assess goals. The ultimate goa ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

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

My teaching style would be classified as patient. I was diagnosed with a learning disability myself when I was in third grade, so I know how differently children learn. I was lucky enough to have patient resource teachers to work with and allow me to find my way of learning the material led by them, of course. So I think tutoring is extremely important for success of our children. I even received tutoring all the way up through high school and was grateful to my private tutor for, again, helping me to learn the material in a way that made sense to me and I strive to do the same for the children I teach.
During my years as a student, it was something I excelled at. I did not have to typically study for hours to achieve success in retaining material. I tend to remember things easily and be good with educating others on subject matter. I have been a substitute teacher and have mentore ... read more

I enjoy teaching and working with all children. My recent student teaching experience required me to incorporate a variety of teaching methods into my daily lessons in order to insure that each child had access to academic content. My classes were very heterogeneous, with a variety of learning needs and styles comprising each student group. I am an enthusiastic, patient, and considerate teacher. I strive to make learning engaging and relevant for my students. I believe that every child can learn and that it is up to me to provide the best education possible for each of them.
I have recently completed student teaching at Oceanside High School. In addition to teaching both English 10 and English 11 curriculums, I tutored two students in Advanced Placement English, and assisted another student with English 12 writing tasks. I have a strong background in literary interpretation and ana ... read more

My teaching style is based on a Socratic pedagogy -- the basis for learning is discussion and critical thinking. I am passionate about good education, and my own classical education background lends itself to the discussion-based lessons I provide. Depending on the age of the student, I also include enducational games that bring fun into the class while stressing important facts and increasing students' mastery of the subject. My students typically leave a class feeling they have been challenged, but having all their questions answered, and holding clear expectations for the next session. I believe teaching is a gift as well as an attitude. My teaching method and philosophy of education offer both.
I have been teaching for 18 years at the junior high and high school level. I offer group and individual classes for home- schooled families in South Orange County. Some of the classes I ... read more
