Traditional approach - lecture, discussion, answer and question method, group discussion, reports, one-on-one, and book reports. Non-traditional approach - virtual lecture, online discussion, mostly one-on-one interaction, proctored tests, and special techniques such as reading aloud, group interaction.

A Little Bit About Me...

I've honed my coaching style to develop many of the tools needed to reach students in every age group because people never stop learning, so I am prepared to assist others wherever they find themselves in their education experience. I'm a quiet, patient teacher with a flexible style that includes learning by using examples from life, not just a given curriculum. Each student is different, so I believe it's vitally important to connect with each one so as to make the learning experience as comfortable and beneficial as possible for both student and teacher.
Education and helping others get the most out of their scholastic experience has always been very important to me. My tutoring background began at Merced Community College, where I taught college students in English, Spanish, business law, mathematics, and chemistry.

A Little Bit About Me...

I've taught more than 600 classes in Livermore's schools, creating a superb awareness of how to teach a variety of individuals. I graduated magna cum laude in journalism which has given me exceptional knowledge of writing, reading, grammar and vocabulary. On a broader scale, I hope to leave students with an increased ability to organize their time and materials, and to master study skills that will aid them in the rest of their academic pursuits - as well as their future careers.
My teaching style is that learning should be fun! I use humor, encouragement, enthusiasm and interest to make sure students feel invested in learning and improving. Drudgery never succeeds in the long run. Confidence and comfort are key to students gaining competency, and I strive to discover each student's learning style in order to individually help them.
