English ESOL Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Barstow, CA

?I enjoy relating with children and young people. Children face challenges in the learning process and there’s no shame in having someone assisting them over the hurdles. I would do my outmost to connect with your child so that I can understand how he or she reasons, and give the individual attention that can make a difference in the child’s academic success. As a mother I have studied many helpful books and taken several seminars to assist me in understanding the minds and potentials of young people. ?I have a BA degree with a minor in English. These courses were done in French. I also studied Hebrew and Greek. During these studies I had many research papers and a thesis to do. Often I assisted several students in English Grammar during the past four years of school. In the past I took several courses on Family Life from a university in Michigan because of my keen interest

I hold a Multiple Subject Teaching Credential, TESOL Certificate, and a Bachelor of Arts degree in Liberal Studies, Elementary Education. I have taught elementary, university composition, and working adult students. I have also participated in and implemented Student Study Team plans and Individual Educational Program plans.

As a competent, enthusiastic, and experienced educator, I will use my expertise in multiple-subject curriculum adaptation, English Language Development, and technology to help students strive for success and reach their academic goals. The foundation of my philosophical approach to teaching is that every student can learn. With that theory in mind, practice in the field of teaching has also shown me that actual acquisition of knowledge is a dir

I enjoy seeing children discover the world around them in their own ways. Therefore, I teach the importance of working things out until you understand it for yourself. Children will meet and often surpass any goal that is given to them if you show that you believe in them. I use a hands-on approach, as much as possible, with a problem-solving emphasis. I firmly believe that a child remembers things more if he is able to work it out for himself. As a result, I take more of a mentoring position the older the child is. It was in this way that my daughter received both an AA and an AS degree the night she received her high school diploma. I began teaching at Hesperia Christian in 1995. First, I substituted and then taught part-time, two to four subjects a year: Advanced Math and Drama, 5 years; Biology, 1 year; and Advanced Drama, 3 years. When my son started seventh grade, I began h

I am very patient, calm, and understanding, and I enjoy helping children navigate through the sometimes difficult process of education. I know that different children have different learning styles, so I can tailor my lessons to best help each individual student. Learning should be interesting and stimulating so that students will retain knowledge and desire to learn more. That is why I endeavor to keep the process positive. I have over ten years of experience working with children, and over five years of experience as a teacher and tutor. I have a BA in Psychology, and a JD in Law. I have also passed the CBEST and the CSET Social Studies tests. I have excellent writing and reading skills that were further developed during law school. I also have basic math skills that I used while I was working as a tutor. I have tutored students in reading, writing, social studies, and basic math.

I believe that all students can achieve academic success, even in their least favorite subjects. However, everyone learns in different ways with sundry motivations. Many students require some one on one time with a qualified teacher, who will both identify the student’s learning style and adapt their teaching style accordingly. I also believe that a student’s confidence in their abilities will play into their success. A skilled teacher will tailor lessons and feedback to build on skills a student does have, instilling confidence and encouraging the learner to meet the challenge of complex topics. With over 17 years of teaching experience, I realize the impact that one on one tutoring can have on a student. My classroom experience includes secondary math and English, and my tutoring experience includes basic math, pre-algebra, algebra, geometry, algebra 2 with trigonometry, SAT prep, CAHS

As an experienced Teacher/Counselor, I realize the importance of developing a trusting relationship with students/clients by recognizing their individuality, listening attentively and treating them with respect. This opens the door to communication and enables the Instructor and students to function as a team. My work with “high risk” youth in crisis situations has prepared me to work well under stressful situations while staying focused on problem solving through positive intervention. I completed an internship at Rim of the World High School where I tutored/counseled individuals and groups of students with multiple disabilities such as: vocational, domestic, leisure and community accessibility as well as provided basic reading, writing and math instruction. As a Family Specialist, I provided assistance by helping them set and achieve goals and acted as an encouraging and supportive
