"Music expresses that which cannot be said." V. Hugo

Whether it's Musical help or Mathematical help that's needed, I like to realize the difficulties students are having. Then, together with them, I'll break down the problem, finding the source of confusion or difficulty they're having. Then start from the very beginning of the lesson they're learning, reteaching as though there was never any difficulties at all. I'll make sure students learn and understand, only to develop the possible ability to help others as though they never had any difficulties.
Throughout all my years in school, I was a Choir student. I was in my school's top varsity choirs and took a few years of music theory. I would help other students prepare for competitions, or simply help them with other things, whether it was vocal issues or things like reading music. I know much about both Classical Training and Contemporary Training. Also, I tutored many classmates ... read more

While earning my MA in English at California State University, Fresno, I spent two exciting years teaching beginning college writing. I chose to teach the class for students who did not pass the entrance exam for Fresno State because I enjoyed working with the diverse, and primarily ESL, students who populated these classes. I also spent three years tutoring many terrific students there in reading and essay writing. Currently, I volunteer to tutor adults, and attend professional development meetings in tutoring, through the Tulare County Library’s “Read to Succeed” program.
My style of tutoring is skills-focused, with a goal of student independence. I am patient and work to facilitate a student’s ability to do the work herself, by giving her strategies for navigating her own work, and helping her to see, or mentally organize, reading and writing in new ways.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have known that teaching is my calling since I was a Freshman in high school. Learning how everything works has always facinated me and sharing that has been equally rewarding. I believe that learning can be fun when it is relevant and interactive. Students have to be given a vested interest in the learning process, asked questions. An environment of trust in which student's inquiry is encouraged is the best way of learning. Moreover, I thing that teachers have to use complementing mediums for teaching (ie. Visual aids, sensory aids, stories,music, etc.).
I'm a senior at Fresno State, soon I will have a B.A. in History, which certifies my ability to research, analyze, and write proficiently. Besides having attained writing skills and expertise in the Social Sciences, I have continually improved my knowledge in several academic fields out of my own initiative; I have honed m ... read more

I believe education is the most valuable gift we can pass on to our most valuable resources, which is the youth. I would like to be a factor in providing the best quality of education for our youth by using evaluation skills to determine what type of learner each student is. I am a strong believer in visual aid and learning through visual demonstration and providing clear, detailed examples. I also like to create an environment to practice positive reenforcement which will give students positive motivation to learn and increase the passion for learning. Also, by being a mentor to students who may be having difficulties, I believe communication between a student and a tutor will be greatly improved and thus providing clearer understanding.

I gained a variety of skills including, counseling, communication, discipline, motivation, teamwork, and importantly, patience. Although teaching students has its challenges, I learned that patience, flexibility, cooperation and accepting the uniqueness of each individual play a vital role. Helping children is the most important, challenging, and rewarding task in my life. Children who grow up in a caring, nurturing, educational atmosphere help them to develop the confidence, self-esteem and knowledge to become happy, successful young adults and members of the community. I firmly believe teaching our children and assisting with their development is vital to their future. I am content to motivate and encourage all children.

I obtained my bachelors degree in Computer Science and my teaching credential. For the last 8 years I have been a teacher. I have spent 5 years teaching math at the Junior High and High School Level. This past summer I spent teaching Algebra to High School Students, most of whom had been unsuccessful before. Those students were very successful. I have had experience working with students that under achieve. I get satisfaction in seeing students succeed.
A good environment is essential to learning. A rich learning environment that cares about the deficiency needs so that intellectual achievement may occur. They will know where they stand. Students will have ideas. Those ideas will be considered valuable. Modeling and scaffolding will be used to create a foundation for learning. The success will create more motivation.

My greatest strength lies with my patience with children and flexibility to see what style of learning enables the child to best master the subject. I desire to lead children in finding the answer which will not only teach them the subject they are learning, but will enable them to reason and find the answers in other classes as well. It is simple to teach a child to memorize but to teach a child to reason will enable him to learn any subject at any age.
During my time in college, I switched to become an educator as I discovered a passion to see the lives of children transformed. During my process of gaining my BS in Physical Education, I worked with many after school programs and taught both elementary and high school during my student teaching. Since college, I have taught and worked with children and youth around the world and currently volunteer in my local community, headi ... read more
