I also tutor earth science, writing, reading skills, history, and govenment. I always strive to draw the student's attention to the lesson, therefore, I work most math problems with my students. I try to keep communication open and light-hearted. I want my studeents to feel free to ask questions and come to me with any problems they may have. I generally prefer hands-on learning. I try to never "lecture" and remain removed from the material the student is working on. I am very involved with the student and am not afraid to challenge them when I feel they are ready for

I am confident that I can help my students improve in their performance in any of the above-mentioned subjects in a relaxed and welcoming atmosphere. I believe that any student can learn a subject once he or she is able to understand its concepts and practice its procedures following a consistent set of steps. Having a thorough understanding of mathematics and physics allows me to break down concepts, explain them using different approaches, diagnose where the student has misconceptions or difficulties, and to review skills that will enable the student to have a strong foundation. I also have access to software, activities and manipulatives that may make the learning process more fun. I have a BS in Mathematics from Cal Poly Pomona along with 8 years of work experience tutoring secondary students and college students in Pre-Algebra, Algebra 1, Geometry, Algebra 2, College Algebra, Pre-Ca

My teaching style is adaptive, changing with the needs of the individual student. Since each student learns in a different manner, so have I learned to adapt my teaching to each individual student. Additionally, I ensure that while tutoring I bolster and reinforce the self-esteem of the student. Many times, the fact that a tutor is necessary may lead the student to the erroneous assumption that something is wrong with the student. My experience and teaching style is to celebrate every single student learning victory. My BA was earned at a small, independent, private college in Los Angeles. My major is in English, with a minor in Psychology and Sociology. I have a Master’s degree in Elementary Education, which was completed in 18 months. I have also passed the following educational tests in the state of California: CBEST, CSET (Multiple Subject), and RICA. (Reading Instruction Comprehens

My experience at the community college and public school classroom includes a wide range of diverse teaching experiences from high achieving Japanese to Hispanic low performing students seventh graders I have excelled at teaching all levels of ethnically, academically and physically diverse students. The procedure I follow in tutoring is to first attack is to find out where any understanding difficulty lies. Then, I write the rules out. Next I work 2-3 problems applying the rules as we proceed step by step. Under my tutledge, I have the student work 2-3 problems on their own. When the student can, at least, master the basic problems, then we move on to the next area of difficulty. Every one can succeed at some level. My Ph.

I have 9 years of experience teaching high school; all courses - AP Calculus, pre-calculus, algebra 2, geometry, algebra, pre-algebra (including special needs and english learners), and practical applications. Over the last 20 years, I have tutored students in all of the above subjects as well as elementary math concepts, writing strategies, and reading recovery. I am NCLB certified and focused on the defined national & state standards of each subject. I use Socratic questioning strategies and experiential learning to ensure that students understand why a concept applies rather than just memorizing formulas. I use manipulatives and visual aids to ensure that multiple modalities are integrated. I work with the whole student as a person, identifying how the student learns and teaching the student how to adapt various teaching styles to his/her learning style.

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

I am eclectic in my approaches towards teaching, ranging from Montessori and Classroom Without Walls, to Behaviorist and Cognitive approaches. I use what is observable, measurable, and works. I am always prepared to pull a rabbit out of my hat, and I always prepare additional alternative lesson plans in case an approach does not seem doable. I begin tutor sessions with interviews to assess goals. The ultimate goal is always for the tutee to become an independent learner. Tutoring is a profession which I have enjoyed for over nine years, often while teaching in the classroom or online, concurrently. I was able to teach multi-subjects to college students because I excelled in all subjects myself, receiving numerous scholarship awards and honors. I chose after school tutoring as my extra duty assignment while teaching middle school and high school. I enjoy tutoring students because I exper
