Math Teacher Who Gets Results!

I have taught Math, English, Science and other core courses in California public and private schools for 28 years. My students always enjoy learning with me because I teach application as well as theory. I show how and where the facts being learned can be employed. The more students are involved with the learning process the faster they internalize the material and the sharper, clearer will be their recall.
My teaching style is a combination of TPR (Total Physical Response), Socratic and Discovery. I believe that involving the student's intellect and creativity is very valuable in arriving at their understanding of the material.

"Knowledge is converted into Wisdom, after it's acted upon."

My teaching style is relaxed, allowing ( and encouraging) more interaction with my students. I encourage my students to participate wholly, in the discussion.
I have taught K-12 students and college students academic, college prep and adult education for 25 years. My students are encouraged to be academically strong , goal setters and goal achievers. I enjoy beung a lifelong learner, as I continue to acquire new knowledge. I have been contracted and tenured (by school districts). I began teaching (upon being advised to ddo so) as a substitute. This afforded me the opportunity to observe the different nuances of several schools, before I accepted a contract offer.

In May of 2004 I graduated from a small liberal arts college in Tacoma, Washington. I majored in English with an emphasis in writing. The writing curriculum I followed consisted of writing personal essays, articles, short fiction and even writing for children. Additionally, I wrote several research reports. Research for my Masters Degree required a lengthy detailed dissertation which turned out to consist of four chapters and about forty pages. I have had to practice my grammar, spelling and sentence structur this past year as an English teacher here in Yuma. I have spent about two years teaching and tutoring students in the subjects of reading, ESL and writing.
I love teaching because it allows me to connect with youth. I find them very humorous. Some work hard, while others not so much, but either way, a teacher can learn so much from their student. Working in educat ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Working with children has always been my passion and goal, as I love teaching and helping children of all ages. I believe that the childhood is one of the most important factors in an individual's life, where growth in learning and understanding is a critical building block for their life. Children, being diverse and unique in various ways, each have an individual learning method. If found and applied to the manner of teaching, then the child has a higher chance of reaching their full potential as an individual. I am very patient, loving, considerate, and easy going. One of my joys in teaching is being able to broaden a child's foundation of understanding and opening their eyes in order to facilitate their own skills and manner of learning in the real-world. I strive to not only make a difference in my student's lives, but to encourage and motivate their own understanding and love of the ... read more

As a daughter of an elementary education teacher, I have been driven by a passion to teach children in areas where they show need. I am in my second year in Northern Arizona University with junior credits. My major is in Sociology, but I believe that helps me in pin-pointing the most important aspects of helping children individually in different social settings. I have done tutoring before, but never with a school district. I believe that every child has a unique way of learning and I am capable and flexible in showing them the different ways in which they can learn. I am an extremely patient person and will not stop until my student has learned every subject problem area. I am dedicate to the student one hundred percent.
My teaching style varies according to the different areas of need in each child. No one child is the same, and they all learn in different manners. I approach ... read more

I currently have a Bachelor's in Elementary Education and hold an Arizona teaching certificate. I have spent many years volunteering in both my parent's classrooms. I have also spent the last school year substituting in elementary schools in Tennessee where I am living now. I have thoroughly enjoyed substituting in different grades and subjects. Each day is something new and exciting! I have taught six weeks in a first grade classroom, and have had many other assignments as a second grade teacher, third grade teacher, fifth grade teacher, p.e. teacher, art teacher and middle school English teacher. I will be in Yuma, Arizona this summer and would love to help your student(s) improve their skills and become prepared for the next school year!
I believe that each child is capable of learning. I want my students to know that I will not give up on them, and that I believe they are all c ... read more

More About This Tutor...

As a new teacher in Arizona I just finished my first year in teaching in schools around the Yuma area. I was privileged enough to teach many different grades, cultures, and socioeconomic statuses as well as numerous learning levels. I have developed many skills and taken a particular interest in tutoring English and Reading as well as Math and Social Studies. I have gathered much knowledge about all subject areas at the elementary and high school levels. My knowledge, passion, and dedication has helped many students overcome trouble areas and encouraged them to progress farther than they felt they were able to before.
My teaching style is vary diverse when it comes to my students. I do not believe in one teaching style because there will never be just one learning style present with any child. Every child learns a different way in different subjects and I believe in discoveri ... read more

I believe in Howard Garner's theory of teaching to the student style of learning. They are as follows: Visual, Auditory, Musical, Kinesthetic, Interpersonal and Intrapersonal. As I work with the student and get to understand their abilities and limitations I develop a style that will work the best for that particular student.
I have worked with students of all grade levels from volunteering at the Cocopah Head Start preschool to working with high school students as a substitute teacher. I have an English as a Second Language endorsement and have worked with adults in improving the English level. I excell in creative writing and am currently assisting friends in obtaining their GED.

A Little Bit About Me...

I greatly enjoy working with children. I feel that every child absorbs information differently and a teacher should be able to identify and relate to that child. I also feel that a good teacher makes learning fun and exciting. As a teacher you should be able to gain and maintain a child’s attention in order to pass the information successfully.
I recently moved to Arizona and received my substitute teaching certificate. I am a new college Graduate with a Bachelor of Science in Ag Leadership and Development. My degree helped me understand how individuals learn and process information. It also helped me understand and respect people of different cultures, religions and races. I learned many different teaching mechanisms and strategies to educate individuals. While in high school I was very involved in 4-H and other extracurricular activities. I worked closely with children on lead ... read more
