More About This Tutor...

I feel like I'm very much a hands-on type of instructor. I really believe that the best way to understand something is to keep practicing it and so I like to guide and help speed up this process by giving lots of examples and feedback. I also believe that there's no use learning something if you don't learn it right and it's that belief that makes me so dedicated to my job.
Graduated with honors from Modesto Junior College with an Associates in Music. Four semesters of Piano at the college, five semesters of Voice, four semesters of Music Theory and ear training, four semesters of choir, and two semesters of Electronic Music. As a student I have a firm grasp on music fundamentals and the basics of music theory as well as some voice and piano pedagogy. Aside from my experience within the field of my degree, I've always received very high grades in math and english classes. English a ... read more

My comments on tutoring Poetry : Writer and Reader of Poetry

I am an Honors Graduate from California State University Stanislaus and I am knowledgeable on many subjects. I have had former experience in tutoring and I am more than willing to work with students of any age. I am proficient in English, Social Science, Study Skills, and many other areas. As an avid reader and excellent writer I am able to work with students on their writing skills at any level.
I am a hard worker and expect a similar attitude from the students I tutor. I tend to work out the problem for the student on one problem and then I watch as they go through a similar one to ensure they have understood. This repetative practice has proven efficient. I also tend to make the student practice more than the required assignments needed to be accomplished to ensure a firm grasp of the material.

Results-driven tutor seeking to share my love of knowledge!

I graduated high school with a full International Baccalaureate Program Diploma, and a 4.53 weighted GPA. I then went on to receive a full ride scholarship to Santa Clara University for Computer Engineering, where I took part in the University's Honors Program. There I completed 3 years of study in computer science, classical languages, and Spanish, before deciding to change directions and gain real-world experience. After a brief leave of absence, I entered Licensing Education Courses for the field of Insurance, passed the License Exam, and went to work as the Vice President of Marketing for Financial and Insurance Services, an independent insurance brokerage in Fresno, CA. Feeling the urge to once again to change directions, I am taking took time to pursue my passion for poetry, competing in several contests and publishing an anthology of poetry on Amazon (“Automatic Phantom”).

A Little Bit About Me...

I am kind of new to teaching. I have taught my little brother everything he knows, and I've been told I have a really good way of teaching. Younger students catch on very quickly to what it is I am teaching. If they don't catch on quick, then no problem. I'm very patient and never give up until a student understands the concept. I am very easy to get along with, so the student will have no problems with me. Altogether I am a very patient smart person eager to help new students learn; and if you want to have fun while learning, then I am the perfect tutor for you.

More About This Tutor...

I believe student engagements is the key to learning. Hence I use various EDI strategies to ensure students are engaged in learning math concepts. I believe in group work and collaborations. I believe in modeling a math concept and right away checking for understanding. I use white boards, random selection and think-pair-share to stimulate learning in my students and check for their understanding.
I have had 4 years of teaching experience, of which the first years I subbed for the Turlock Unified School District in various grades. I was teaching and going to school to receive my teaching credential in math education. I can teach up to Geometry in highschool. I have passed the first two CSET tests for mathematics.

A Little Bit About Me...

I truly enjoy when I get the chance to work one-on-one with a student. I am the kind of teacher you will see sitting on the floor with a student, acting things out in front of the class, making up songs to go with the curriculum, and full of energy. I understand the difficulty that many children have when learning in a noisy, busy, and crowded classroom. Tutoring can give me that chance to reach a child who otherwise might get lost in his/her classroom. I believe that all children can learn, but that they each learn at a different pace, and in a different way. By one-on-one, and in a quiet environment, some students may rise to the occassion and be happy and more successful in school.

I recently graduated Summa Cum Laude with a Bachelor's in English, and I am currently working on obtaining my Master's degree in English. Although my focus is in Literature, I have a vast knowledge of writing and composition, creative writing, and English grammar. During my undergraduate studies, I was a member of the Provost Honors program. For the two years I was in that program, I worked extensively on the research and writing of a 30-page Honors thesis, which I presented at the college's annual Honors Thesis Conference.
I absolutely love anything English--Literature, writing, reading, and yes, even grammar--but more importantly, I love working with children, teens, and adults to help them achieve a better understanding of the English discipline. I truly believe that there is something valuable to learn about the human connection that occurs during reading and writing. Therefore ... read more

I use an easy manner in my tutoring and use my sense of humor to build rapport with children. I strive to make learning fun and interactive. I do not just hand out worksheets and require reading. I am a hands on tutor. I also help children understand the concepts behind the learning, rather than rote memorization of material. I know that all children learn differently and I adjust my teaching methods to suit the child's style of learning.
I have extensive experience as a tutor. I have been tutoring for 10 years. I tutored learning disabled children as well as struggling children in a variety of subjects. I also worked in an after school program for elementary school children helping them with homework and projects.

I spent two years working for the University's Writing Center. I tutored ESL students and Freshmen on how best to improve their essay writing skills in either one-on-one or group sessions. I've tutored grammar, MLA and APA formatting, reading, writing, philosophy, and test-taking skills. I also received a significant amount of training that culminated in my receiving the highest certification in tutoring that the College Reading and Learning Assocation offers.
