A Little Bit About Me...

I have tutored for Title I Schools (k-8) in the Dysart School District since the beginning of 2008. I have also worked as a Special Ed assistant. I have experience working with students grade level k-8. I specialize in working with learning disabled students in the areas of language arts and reading. I hold a bachelor's degree and I am also a licensed speech language pathology assistant. In addition, I have my Fingerprint Clearance Card, CPR/First Aid Certification and a clear TB test.
I usually tutor one on one and in small groups. I work with a variety of students, grades k-8, some who have learning disabilities, some who have physical disabilities, and others who are academically behind. In all cases, I believe in positive reinforcement and keeping my students motivated and excited to learn. I also believe in building confidence in my students because wanting to learn is the ... read more

I began tutoring in elementary school. I tutored students in grades below mine in reading, spelling, grammar, math, and science. I continued tutoring fellow students in high school, as well as teaching children as a church volunteer. After studying the administration of justice and evidence technology at Phoenix College, I finished my BS at University of Phoenix. While earning my degree, I used the knowlege and skills I have gained to help struggling students succeed as well.
I would describe my teaching style as straight-forward, but constructive and rewarding. I believe patience is important and that small successes lead to larger ones. I understand that each student has different needs and learning styles vary, therefore I work to tailor my methods to the individual student while keeping the information plain to reduce confusion. I believe that teaching is about supportin ... read more

I have a passion for education. I believe that children can learn without even knowing it! Children love to play games and I make teaching like a game for them, so they have a great time and they are learning. There is substantial information that suggests that children retain knowledge if they thoroughly understand it and if they are having fun learning it. I haven't met to many children that don't remember rules and the directions of how to play boardgames especially if they have a blast playing it! I know that every child wants to learn and I will strive to make sure that each and every child will have the opportunity to learn at their fullest potential.
As a Graduate student in Special Education, I have learned that there are many different ways to approach the English language. I have extensive experience in writing papers and the rules of the English language. I proof read m ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Presently, I am a part time adjunct instructor. As a superintendent and principal, I have observed 100’s of classrooms, and being around the best of teachers, I have a pretty good foundation of what good teaching is about. Rasmussen managers and students have also given me wonderful evaluations. It is so important that students are listened to, and it is also vital that classes are dynamic and interesting. Most years of my career was spent in elementary teaching, and in many of those years I served as a tutor. I was also a tutor at Rasmussen College. I have tutored and taught classes in both the special needs and gifted areas.
I have a lot of patience, especially patience to help students by carefully showing them their mistakes. Students learn best by listening and correcting errors -getting the correct result. Learning by doing and discovery fit into this scenario ... read more

I value the learning styles of each individual student and regardless of subject matter, I emphasize developing study skills to enable the student to apply what he or she learns in every subject/course.
In the last nine years, I have actively addressed the goals and available resources of diverse student populations. During college, I tutored through several organizations, including AVID, Hermanas Intimas, and the Ophelia Project. Later at San Francisco State University, I served as a Teaching Assistant for two semesters and two departments. Prior to these experiences, I have taught English, ESL, and EFL to native and non-native English speakers domestically as well as internationally. English was not my first language, and I use my own experiences with language and culture to communicate successfully with students from all backgrounds. Furthermore, I am very comfortable with onlin ... read more
