My undergraduate degree from was a Bachelor of Science in Business Administration with a minor in Biology, so I have a lot of experience with writing papers and utilizing analysis skills in math and science.

Recently, I have tutored large groups of elementary school students in the community, following a specific standards established by the California Board of Education.

Any child can learn a foreign language (FL). Math, science, literature, art, in fact, any subject, all use their own specific jargon. It is essential to not only make FL learning relevant, but also fun and interesting. In today's global, multi-cultural environment, and with the Internet linking us to anyone, anywhere instantly, American children need to have a solid foundation in at least one FL. Full immersion is the best way to acquire FL. Addressing multiple learning styles through the use of a variety or current media: songs, videos, magazines, Internet, books, newspapers, games, etc... can make FL learning interesting, fun, and relevant. I grew up in a multi-cultural home, and I was exposed to foreign languages from a very young age and continuously throughout my childhood. We had a French exchange student spend 3 different summers with us, and I studied Spanish, French, and Ger

I am a very down to earth person especially when it comes to kids. I always try to lighten up the mood and make learning things interesting and fun. I don't like to dismiss when I see a child having trouble in something. Every person has a different way of learning, I try to cater to each of their needs. I have tutored children in reading last summer. It was one of the most gratifying things I have done. I worked with English as second language children ranging from ages 5 to 13. We used a lesson plan and several activities to help children in achieving their reading level goals. Also, in my undergrad experience, I excelled in writing and was very good with meeting deadlines.

It seems to me that everyone can learn, in different ways and at different times. My approach is to have several options of which approach will be successful. Being a 1:1 teacher allows me the freedom and time to work with a student on a concept in a number of ways until the cognition sets in for him. Being enthusiastic and excited about the learning experience is contagious. I always think about the teachers who were indifferent compared to the ones who were animated. I am definitely animated, excited, and enthusiastic. I believe in combining visual, tactile, and aural whenever possible. My experience in the teaching field has been primarily as a substitute on a daily basis. I have some long-term sub assignments in my resume as well. For the past 7 years I have limited my assignments to "Home/Hospital". I meet 5 hours per week with each student to provide complete instruction in al

Since graduating from highschool, I have had the desire to encourage and expand the knowledge base and love of learning for each student in my care. Having grown up in multiple countries, I am fluent in English, Spanish, French and have a MA in Christian Education. In my 11 1/2 years as an educator, I have taught every subject in elementary school, with an emphasis on arithmetic, history, science, reading, composition and grammar. In highschool, I have taught history, writing, composition and logic. I currently homeschool my two daughters, who are in 3rd and 5th grade. I am a firm believer that each child is special and distinct and each should be approached differently in order to achieve the maximum results. My goal is to instill in each student a love of learning which will benefit them for the rest of their studies and lives, not just through their current difficulty. Every stu

When I entered college I was immediately drawn to tutor my peers as needed. I worked with the single mom's program at IVC and also did job coaching for the City of Long Beach Disabled program. Once I graduated from college I had the opportunity to join the Boys & Girls Clubs, specifically designing educational and technology programs. I enjoyed tutoring about 50 youth a day. As a result some parents requested that I run a special off hours program at their middle school to tutor the ADHD kids. Every child in that program raised their grades 60% over the course of the semester. Since that time I have honed the methods I have created to work with the "hard to reach" kids and have had tremendous success. My teaching style is straight and to the point. My goal is to make the kids understand that the only thing holding them back is themselves. Hard work and a desire to learn will win eve

I am an empathetic listener with a penchant for learning. A successful tutor needs to be an effective listener, one who is capable of figuring out the solution from the student's perspective, using terms and words that the student can relate to, making deceptively difficult concepts not so difficult to understand. A lot of times, all the student needs is a little help defining and assimilating new information presented to him, and I see myself as a facilitator of that process. I am creative and flexible, patient and persistent, sometimes a borderline perfectionist, and I never tire of the many "eureka!" moments experienced by my peers and students with whom I have had the opportunity to work. I am a trained researcher in molecular biology, with a BS in Neurobiology, Physiology, & Behavior, and MS in Nutritional Biology. I spent some time as an undergraduate volunteering at a local teen c
