I am a very warm, caring instructor who is able to gauge a students' needs, whether it involves study skills, organization or overall comprehension. My tutoring philosophy involves working with your child's current assignments. Together we will develop study skills which will help him/her not only immediately, but also in years to come. I will NOT give your child 'extra' work, unless requested by you or your child. Bottom line, I make tutoring sessions as painless and effective as possible, which in turn creates excitement for learning!
I hold a Master's degree in Education, as well as teaching certification in English. During the last seven years, I have taught students of all educational backgrounds in various capacities.

After graduation, I taught on a transitional teaching license. I taught in the Woodburn School District. I then went to Japan and taught English as a second language. I grew up between Bolivia and the United States and speak Spanish and English fluently. I took statistics in university and taught math in Spanish from time to time as a substitute for the Woodburn School District. In Woodburn I taught a self contained classroom for a while. I had to teach ELL students Social Studies, Math, Language arts in both Spanish and English and science. As a substitute I taught all kinds of classrooms including all subject matters. This makes me qualified to teach a variety of subject matters in a variety of situations.
I believe in diversity in teaching styles because each student is unique and each has different abilities in various areas. As a substitute in the Woodburn School d ... read more

As an advanced student in highschool algebra, my teacher chose me to tutor one struggling athlete and one girl trying to raise her B to an A for acceptance to an Ivy League University. In discovering their different learning styles, I was able to teach my students in a way they understood. Seeing the light in their eyes as they figured out a problem gave me a passion for teaching. Your student is capapble of learning; it is my responsibility to discover their learning style and present the material in a way that he or she understands.
In addition to completing accounting courses for my B.S. in Accounting, I completed two courses in Child Development and Education, and all college level math courses through Calculus. I have tutored students in math since 1989. At Juniper Elementary in Bend, OR, I was a Good News Club teacher and volunteered as a reading specialist working to imp ... read more

My teaching style involves a large degree of listening and patience. I strongly believe that each student requires a unique teaching style, tailored to his or her needs, strengths and weaknesses. I am a very patient and understanding young adult who loves working with children of all ages and assisting them in discovering the joy and importance of developing his or her reading and writing skills. Given a stimulating, challenging and rewarding environment, children can gain valuable knowledge that will give them the opportunity to advance and feel confident in their future academic and professional lives.

A Little Bit About Me...

I believe that the most important element of teaching and tutoring is the ability to vary one's teaching style to meet the learning style of a student. I am patient and comfortable explaining things multiple times and in multiple ways. I believe I have the creativity to help any student find a way to make sense of his or her material. I believe firmly in experiential education, in which subject matter becomes alive to the learner through activities or other practical approaches. I believe that students with all ability levels can master the subject matter with the proper support and the right approach and I believe that I am perceptive enough to be able to find such an approach for any student.
I have worked as a tutor since I was sixteen years old, first as a peer tutor, and then in various contexts following my college graduation. I have experience working with learners at varyin ... read more

I have over 35 years experience teaching at the university level including courses in statistics, research methods, medical sociology, writing, and numerous other topics. I have also conducted management training to public service managers and employees focusing on management skills and employee development and compliance.
My teaching style will vary according to the task at hand. For example, in teaching or tutoring basic, knowledge-based subjects, my approach is more structured and gear towards building knowledge and mastery of the subjects at hand. In preparing students for educational success, my style is adjusted to the student. That is, every student is different and unique, and will demonstrate his or her own natural learning abilities. In this respect, I work closely with students to discover those intangibles that motivate and inspire them to learn. I can definitely ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

As a highly intuitive and flexible instructor who recognizes that we all learn in different ways, I adjust my methodology to the individual student. No one approach works for everyone, so I pay attention to what is effective for each person and tailor my instruction to those needs.
My professional experience includes teaching remedial reading, private tutoring of elementary level students, volunteering as an adult literacy tutor, and teaching English as a second language. I also home schooled my three children, teaching each to read when they could not learn in school. My children are all now in college, the eldest studying for his Master's at Boston University. I believe I can teach anyone of any age to read and write effectively.

A Little Bit About Me...

I graduated with two bachelor degrees(in English Literature and in Theater Arts). I had planned to continue my graduate studies to obtain my Oregon Teacher's Certificate. Due to legislation, there was a radically decreased need for teachers. I decided after my children were grown to return to school to obtain a Masters' degree. I have been a substitute teacher in Oregon for tutoring/detention while a teacher was on medical leave, and was a teacher's aide in California. I was also the team's scribe and grammatist while in graduate school. The other memebers of the team would submit their parts of the project and I was in charge of making sure everything was properly edited and grammatically precise.
I am a lover of English - good writing and good grammar never go "out of style." As such, I love to instill a love of reading in those whom I teach. I am a visual learner, but this does ... read more
