My comments on tutoring Speaking : Have been a radio disc jockey for two years of my life. Good at speaking to large audiences. Also wrote and published a book in 2012 and have done public speaking appearances related to that.

I like to involve the students in exercises instead of passively instruct. I prefer to relate lessons to things that are happening in real life, or issues that conjure significant emotion or stimulate debate. Good creative writing is all about the ability to transfer strong feelings from the writer to the reader. To make them feel what you feel or felt.
I taught Communications 101 to 20 "lifers" at San Quentin Prison as part of the Prison University Project. Some of these men had not been in a classroom in 20 years. I've also spent three years on the Advertising Review Committee for the California Chapter of the American Lung Association vetting all adverting, marketing and PR messaging for the marketplace. Lastly, I published my first book in 2012 entitled "Buzzkill," which is now used as required reading at Drexel University in a Psychology 101 course. It has excellent re ... read more

Speaking is one of my top subjects! I have been a guest speaker at some conventions, and often do presentations for my company to the public. I know what makes a dynamic speech.

I have worked in art and graphic design professionally for the past 6 years, however I have been freelancing and creating art for myself since 1998. I previously worked for the Hayward Area Historical Society, which included assisting in design for exhibits as well as some teaching to visiting school groups. I have also been asked to teach small groups of children about art, or help with general homework on numerous occasions.
I work best one-on-one or in small groups, I can adjust my style to what a person needs after speaking with them for a while and understanding how they learn. I've found the best way to teach someone a new way of looking at something is to understand how they currently perceive it.

More About This Tutor...

I have my Masters in Business Administration and am currently a law student at McGeorge School of Law. I believe one on one tutoring is critical at any age. I am well versed in math, reading, and test prep! I am very energetic and believe in positive reinforcement and the idea that there are no stupid questions. When a student feels free to ask anything they don't fully understand it allows for a firm foundation to be built that will support a deeper understanding in a topic!

A Little Bit About Me...

I have worked for a software company training customers, clients and employees on the applications. I have also participated in Junior Achievement and have been very active in my son's school and the community. I am on 5 executive boards, ranging from PTA to a library foundation, and I also chair our annual Halloween festival at school. I have a degree in Accounting and Strategic Management with a minor in Economics, but have spent the last 2 years building websites for small businesses and local non-profits.
I tend to work with the students to help them decipher the answer to a question, rather than give the answer directly. I believe that examples and samples of problems help students understand the problem. And I want to be a resource, not a crutch, to helping students achieve success. I am strong proponent of education and have spent considerable hours in the classroom ob ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I love the learning process. Few things in life are as rewarding as teaching and learning. Stylistically, I would consider myself to a patient and passionate, yet challenging teacher. I try to understand the learning style of each person and try to direct my efforts in ways that are conducive to each individual's learning style. I try to inject real life examples into teaching as I believe that relevance helps in the process. Also, I like to infuse humor into the process as I believe that most people learn when their minds are open and anxiety-free.
I believe that education and learning are two of the most exciting and fulfilling elements of life and believe that helping others to learn is a way to give something back to this world. I have a Masters degree in Business. Not surprisingly, my math skills are quite good. Additionally, I possess strong communication skills (verbal ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Even before I went to college and earned my B.A., I had already taught two years of ESL in Kachin State, Burma. I came back to the US and earned my degree in East Asian Studies at Indiana University in Bloomington, Indiana. A few months after I graduated I went to the People's Republic of China and taught English as a Second Language from 2003 through 2006. In addition, I have completed all coursework for my M.A. in General Education, however, I have not finished the degree which requires student teaching. I am currently employed as a substitute teacher for two local school districts.
My teaching style depends on the needs of the particular students. I assess the style needed for a particular lesson and use visuals, such as PowerPoint presentations, textbooks, as well as audio, with such tools as are available after individual assessments. I have a great deal of experience teac ... read more

My teach style begins with a desire to improve the lives of everyone with whom I come in contact. I take great pleasure in helping others reach their goals. In a phrase, my style is both nurturing and demanding. I have tutored at-risk you men who might deserve sympathy. However, while I am with them I hold them accountable for learning what has been put in front of them. Although I have no formal training as a teacher, I take a lot of lessons from my wife. She is a first grade teacher in Dublin.
My career began with a ‘Big 5’ CPA company in San Francisco. I have held a number of accounting and general business positions over a 25-year period. I have served as controller, responsible for the proper application of accounting rules, and as Chief Financial Officer, responsible for compliance with all governmental and industry rules and regulations. During that time I have lear ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have been a substitute teacher for about 10 years specializing in math & physics. I have a BS in Mechanical Engineering plus 20+ years of maintenance/engineering experience. I incorporate practical examples in teaching to give students in depth knowledge in a practical sense. I gather my examples from my varied career experiences from the Military, Aircraft, Engineering, Manufacturing/Maintenance & Computer fields. I sporadically tutors students in my specialty.
I use the Active Participation strategy because it engages the learner not only in understanding but in contributing as well. This active learning process combined with introduction of practical uses/examples of the the subject matter provides a deeper meaning. But most of all the Objective,Purpose,and what their interests are, must be known so that these can be incorporated in the learning process.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have over twenty years of experience teaching reading. I completed all of the Houghton/Mifflin Language Arts training sessions that taught California teachers how to be expert Language Arts teachers. I have also attended many Language Arts training sessions through my school district and county education offices. I also ran Language Arts and ESL Intervention programs at my school. I have a B.S. and a Master's degree in Education, and I am CLAD Certified. I love teaching and get along very well with children. I respect them and I know how to inspire them to do their best work.
I believe in "Assertive Discipline". This style uses lots of verbal praise, rewards and incentives. It keeps learning on a positive, moving forward track. This style of teaching is never negative. It encourages learning through engaging, age-appropriate, research-based, fun activities. It starts by assessing ... read more
