A Little Bit About Me...

I have a very open, yet professional, teaching approach. I view teaching as a conversation, and I think students respond best when they feel they are being listened to.
I have been writing and publishing my own creative work for over six years. I have been teaching college writing, composition, and poetry for over two years at the University of California-Irvine. I have experience editing creative journals and other writing. I have worked with students of all ages, ranging from children to college-level adults.

My passion is in social sciences and partnership education. I love working with young people from diverse backgrounds and helping them see their potential in any subject.

Need Piano Lessons?

I am a 19 year old college student who is living in Murrieta for the next few summer months, and attends Cal State Fullerton. I have taken piano lessons for over 11 years now, and have a few years experience in teaching/tutoring in piano. My major concentration in college is Studio Art, and have also had experience in teaching art classes through M.A.D. Studio. Through experience in college and high school, I am also very familiar with Microsoft Office programs, and have helped those who are struggling in the newer editions of these MS programs.
My teaching style is not entirely concrete, for I feel that it depends on the maturity of the student and willingness to learn the subject at hand. I am very patient when I need to be, and my main goal is to simply make sure each student walks away knowing what they needed to learn.

I am what you might call a camp kid. I grew up spending summers in the mountains, camping and hiking and when I grew older, working. The foundation of my leadership experience was built in the forrest. For six summers I worked as an outdoor educator and adventure guide, leading groups of students through week long trips into the natural world. I believe in experience as the greatest teacher. Students are empowered when they learn from their experience and begin to flourish in themselves. At university, my enthusiasm for the outdoors lead me to the arts. I took a particular interest in poetry and short stories and immersed myself in literary life at UCSD. I was often asked to facilitate writing workshops and discussion groups, and in doing so I've found tutoring to come quite naturally to me.

Humanities teacher/tutor

My expertise is in humanities. I combine original writings from ancient (Plato, Aristotle, Sophocles, etc.) and more modern (Shakespeare, Dostoyevsky, Tolstoy, etc.) authors who have shaped our world. By utilizing the Socratic method, I promote critical thinking and engage the student in discussion. My ultimate goal is to help the student not only learn and master the subject, but also to inspire a love of learning and further desire to explore.
As a substitute teacher for social studies and English literature, in both honors and regular classes, I facilitated learning by following the lesson plans. Utilizing student-centered learning techniques, like asking questions and encouraging discussions, I helped create an atmosphere where learning became interesting and happened naturally. By promoting and stimulating guided discussions and critical thinking, I was able to inspire i ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

At Bradley University I was an English major with a Journalism concentration. I love writing and one of the things I enjoy most is the proof reading and editing stage of writing. I can help with any kind of writing necessary from proposals, to research projects to lab reports and journalism articles. Throughout high school I tutored other students after school. In college, as an active member of Pi Beta Phi sorority, I volunteered as a tutor. I worked with both high school and college level students in English and Journalism. I have also taken many years of Spanish and was able to help students in that area as well.
I love English and the writing process and helping other students and children become more comfortable in these areas is very important to me. When I was younger I had trouble with writing and it wasn't until high school that I really began to excel in writing. With my ... read more

During my years as a student, it was something I excelled at. I did not have to typically study for hours to achieve success in retaining material. I tend to remember things easily and be good with educating others on subject matter. I have been a substitute teacher and have mentored elementary through middle school age children. When I graduated college with my Bachelor's of Science in Criminal Justice, I was a member of an International Honor Society as well as one only for Criminal Justice majors and graduated Summa Cum Laude.
My teaching style would be classified as patient. I was diagnosed with a learning disability myself when I was in third grade, so I know how differently children learn. I was lucky enough to have patient resource teachers to work with and allow me to find my way of learning the material led by them, of course. So I think tutoring is extremely important for ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I have recently completed student teaching at Oceanside High School.

I have a strong background in literary interpretation and analysis, as well as teaching writing skills. My secondary credential is pending as I have just finished my coursework.
I enjoy teaching and working with all children. My recent student teaching experience required me to incorporate a variety of teaching methods into my daily lessons in order to insure that each child had access to academic content. My classes were very heterogeneous, with a variety of learning needs and styles comprising each student group. I am an enthusiastic, patient, and considerate teacher. I strive to make learning engaging and relevant for my students. I ... read more
