A Little Bit About Me...

I have more than three decades of experience managing and working in marketing, PR, communications, the web, and media relations. In all of that work, I have always been the one "teaching people" how to use technology and computer, as well as how to write anc communicate. My passion, energy, drive, know-how, knowledge, inventiveness, and infectious optimism will all play a key role in me mentoring, teaching, and tutoring.
What I like about helping people learn more and do better in communicating and expressing themselves is that it gives me a chance to "give back" all that I know in a special way. I teach people how to do things through a method of "learning by doing" with practical (and many times personal experience) exercises. Writing and communicating is a craft that anyone can do if they understand how to "map out" their thoughts and ideas in an outline and then "build from th ... read more

As the oldest of five children, my 15+ years of tutoring experience includes helping my siblings in their homework when we were growing up. I have also taught English for two years at a private Junior/Senior girls' high school in Kyoto, Japan; mentored the English Speaking Society for the high school students; and, more recently, trained three content editors at Intel, as well as developed training classes for HP. Although I did well in math and science during my school years (my mother was a math and science teacher), I consider writing and English grammar my strengths. Scholastically, I am proud of having been a four-year scholarship recipient and of finishing the technical writing certificate program with a 4.0 GPA.
Because each student, young or old, responds to different learning stimuli (graphical or verbal) at diffrent rates, I always try to get to know my student fir ... read more

As a biochemistry student at University of the Pacific, I was required to know the science so well that even if a random person on the street asks me a question, I would be able to explain it to him/her in a way that they could understand. I worked with a lot of excellent professors in lab and tutored a lot of students in grammar, math, sciences, psychology (one of my favor subjects), Spanish and Economics. I love to teach because I learn a lot myself by teaching.
I love working with students, and sharing my knowledge with them. I try to make the learning experience fun along with educational. I love to come up with new ways to help students remember there material. I believe that I have the experience and the knowledge to help someone else. I think a teacher can really change the way how students look at the world and their course material, and I want to make it so that every subj ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

In 1995, I began my official tutoring odyssey by assisting my classmates in AP Calculus. Every day during lunch I spent my half-hour helping my fellow high school seniors succeed, ultimately achieving a 4/5 on the AP exam and guiding others to similar grades. Since those days I have tutored in-home and taught mathematics at the private secondary school level, fostering student knowledge of various concepts from arithmetic to calculus. My degree, my passion, is mathematics.
My students often say I can’t be a teacher because they “just get it" when I explain. Even so, my degree is in math and I've taught professionally and privately. I have a history of maintaining high scores and would rather show why something works than how to follow steps. I don't expect students to love math or do it "my way" but I want students to know math isn't scary. To this end, I explain every step, do ass ... read more

Teaching children is a passion of mine. They soak in the knowledge like a sponge. I am patient, easy going, but also know the task at hand. I try to find the best way to teach that individual child. Every child learns in a different way. I seek to find that way. Since I learn best in a hands-on manner I try to teach that same way.
I was taught at a early age to be the best I possibly could. I was taught to do my best. That has stuck with me all the way through college. I have earned a BS degree in Communication which has given me a knowledge of how to write effectively. I took an editing course which focused on the fundamentals of writing along with correct editing skills. I have had the opportunity to teach individuals in their home while serving a church mission for two years. Also within my church I have taught children the doctrinal basics of the church.

I have been teaching for over 20 years. I believe that they key to good teaching is connecting the lesson to the studnet's lives. If you can make it interesting and relevent to the people then you will be a much more effective teacher. When you teache history connect othe present. For example, when a teach about the plague I compare it to aids. This way students can understand what it was like for the people whoi went through having the plague and not only were they dying but they were condemmed as well. Good teaching is cnnecting to your studnets.
I believe that my background would make me highly qualified for a position in your company.

As a life longer, I have searched out projects that not only allow me to draw upon my current experiences while at the same time pushing and expanding my knowledge. Doing this has allowed me to tackle everything form the very basic of projects not only in computer technology but also in general labor fields. This has lead me to take on projects such as an Arcade System while a student at Heald college.
I love helping people to grow their understanding and reach their full potential. Not being one to stick stricly to the book, I have often employed many hands on and lecture based training aids. The only way for a person to truly learn is from their mistakes, as such, I take care to exercise patience and understanding.

A Little Bit About Me...

I believe children need to feel success in the classroom. Making a mistake is not necessarily bad. Sometimes making a ton of mistakes is the route to understanding. Repetition is necessary to building strong skills. I try to create a positive environment for learning, stress free. I'm an upbeat individual who's highly motivated to working with students of all ages.
Prior to receiving my BA in Music, I worked for over twenty years in the medical and pharmaceutical field as a medical transcriptionist, medical biller/coder and pharmaceutical technician. I attended many courses to obtain a medical transcription license and pharmaceutical technician license in California. During my early college years, I tutored music students at Diablo Valley College in Pleasant Hill, CA and math students. I made a decision to return back to college to pursue a degree. I graduated from the Univ ... read more

Prior to receiving my degree from University of California, Davis, I worked in the classroom as a teacher’s assistant for two Professors at San Joaquin Delta College in Stockton, California. As a professor’s assistant, I had the opportunity to tutor students, grade assignments, and organize material for lectures and labs. I held tutorial sessions to clarify information for students who were in need of extra help with the class material. Being a tutor for math, science, and study skills required me to have patience and great communication in order to relate the information effectively. Also, I teach the fundamentals of basketball to children, ages 3-14, at the community centers and coach women’s varsity basketball at Bear Creek High School in Stockton, California.

I have always enjoyed sharing what I have learned with others. My ability to simplify seemingly difficult concept coupled with my sense of humor, makes me an excellent choice for tutor.

My goal is to provide what i call focused fun.

I believe in individualized teaching. In my sixth grade classroom, I individualized instruction wherever possible. In reading I tested my students and placed them in books at their reading level. I had them write reading summaries and corrected their first drafts. In sixth weeks, I retested and in most instances moved students to a higher level. In my math classes, I tested students and had them begin at the level that they needed to master. If a student could not add, I had him work on his addition skills. I moved students to the next skill level once they had mastered the level that they were working on. Of course, I did group teaching in my classroom, but I individualized wherever possible.
I taught for twenty five years at the middle school level mostly in a self contained sixth grade classroom. In addition to teaching reading, English, math, science,and social studies, I t ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have a two year elementary teacher certificate from Fiji where I taught school for five years before I got a scholarship to study in Hawaii. I noticed a great difference between American students and Polynesian students. Polynesian students are very passive learners and will never dare ask questions in class. The teacher can do pretty much anything he/she wants to do with little or no major challenges. American students on the other hand are full of life and excitement in the classroom and ask all kinds of questions that they could think of. I have learned that I need to be more resourceful, attentive and specific when teaching in an American setting. I had a job on campus during my last two years in college fixing computers and training the professors about how to use education software to teach effectively.
When I came to Hawaii from Fiji to attend college, I was very interes ... read more
