More About This Tutor...

Earning my BA degree and Teaching Credential from SDSU, I also have units equivalent to a Master's in curriculum development and health information. Recognized as an outstanding and dedicated teacher by parents and students, I have successfully taught primary, upper grades and junior high. In addition, I instructed high school students in preparation for the SAT test in reading comprehension, vocabulary development, and all areas of language arts. I set up and directed an after-school tutoring program for K-7th grades to help students needing help with organizational and study skill, test-taking techniques and appropriate academic support. Success was reflected in higher test scores, improved grades and increased self-confidence.
Teaching in an inspiring and positive teaching style, I have special talent to explain and to clarify difficult concepts in a variety of ways that effecti ... read more

I am very flexible and very patient. My teaching style varies with every student, depending on his or her needs and ability. I think that every student can shine. As a tutor/teacher you can make this happen, and that is a reward in itself.
World literature and foreign languages are my greatest passions. I love to read and to write. In addition, I like to tutor and teach. I have taught adult classes, but teenagers are my favorite students. Here in the United States, I have become a paraprofessional in special education.

A Little Bit About Me...

I am a direct teacher. I look for what works and try not to use what doesn't work for too long. Especially when dealing with dyslexics, too much "teaching" has led to failure. I like nothing better than to grapple with a problem until it is resolved. This may imply that I am a more tactile learner myself, but I have seen that I am balanced on all three major learning style fronts. My students have noted that I give good, if off-beat, examples which stick in their heads. These odd-ball reminders are the cornerstone of my "system", as it were.
As a Literacy Professional, I have a decade of experience teaching adults to read. My specialty was in showing volunteer tutors how to teach dyslexic adults and adolescents. I was instrumental in establishing both the first Workplace ESL program in Carson and in supporting dropouts in the community. When I left the program to do resear ... read more
