A Little Bit About Me...

I am what you might call a camp kid. I grew up spending summers in the mountains, camping and hiking and when I grew older, working. The foundation of my leadership experience was built in the forrest. For six summers I worked as an outdoor educator and adventure guide, leading groups of students through week long trips into the natural world. I believe in experience as the greatest teacher. Students are empowered when they learn from their experience and begin to flourish in themselves. At university, my enthusiasm for the outdoors lead me to the arts. I took a particular interest in poetry and short stories and immersed myself in literary life at UCSD. I was often asked to facilitate writing workshops and discussion groups, and in doing so I've found tutoring to come quite naturally to me.

A Little Bit About Me...

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.
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.

Humanities teacher/tutor

My expertise is in humanities. I combine original writings from ancient (Plato, Aristotle, Sophocles, etc.) and more modern (Shakespeare, Dostoyevsky, Tolstoy, etc.) authors who have shaped our world. By utilizing the Socratic method, I promote critical thinking and engage the student in discussion. My ultimate goal is to help the student not only learn and master the subject, but also to inspire a love of learning and further desire to explore.
As a substitute teacher for social studies and English literature, in both honors and regular classes, I facilitated learning by following the lesson plans. Utilizing student-centered learning techniques, like asking questions and encouraging discussions, I helped create an atmosphere where learning became interesting and happened naturally. By promoting and stimulating guided discussions and critical thinking, I was able to inspire i ... read more

More About This Tutor...

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

At Bradley University I was an English major with a Journalism concentration. I love writing and one of the things I enjoy most is the proof reading and editing stage of writing. I can help with any kind of writing necessary from proposals, to research projects to lab reports and journalism articles. Throughout high school I tutored other students after school. In college, as an active member of Pi Beta Phi sorority, I volunteered as a tutor. I worked with both high school and college level students in English and Journalism. I have also taken many years of Spanish and was able to help students in that area as well.
I love English and the writing process and helping other students and children become more comfortable in these areas is very important to me. When I was younger I had trouble with writing and it wasn't until high school that I really began to excel in writing. With my ... read more

I have recently completed my MBA at national University. I currently teach high school part time at a alternative high school. This recent experience provided me with opportunity to work with students in a one-on-one basis as well as familiarize myself with every core class offered in the high school program. I feel I can comfortably teach French as I studied French in Montreal when I lived there. I speak the language fluently. I also feel I can teach k-12 Science classes, specifically Biology and Earth Science. I have a Master's Degree in Business and am comfortable in any area of instruction in business. I have also owned and managed several businesses and have real world experience to share as examples.
I feel I learn as much as I teach. I value every student that I have the opportunity to work with. I have learned some students just need to overcoming their dislike of a sub ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

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 analysis, as well as teaching writing skills. My secondary credential is pending as I have just finished my coursework.
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 ... read more

Since I am not a teacher by training, I believe my key to educating is to strive to understand the motivation or fear that is blocking progress. Once engaged, my experience is that the individual will be successful. My leadership style is to lead by integrity. This means honest and direct communication and delivery on commitments. I share life experience stories and lead by expample. I set clear expectations and provide the knowlege/training to achieve the goal.
I accepted tutoring assignments from another institution over 20 years ago. I recall bringing a young man from a "D" to a "B" in a very short period of time, and my most rewarding experience was with a young lady (today an accomplished attorney) who won a Coca-Cola essay scholarship I helped her with. I have been in a managerial role with my employers for over 20 years, and the role of a manager is to teach/mentor/tra ... read more
