My comments on tutoring Science : I have tutored many subjects for over 10 years with exceptional success, including General Science.

I consider myself to be a uniquely seasoned, qualified, and experienced tutor who can adapt to any situation and to any student in order to benefit their education and learning experience. Due to my ability to teach and tutor children and adults of all ages, (in addition to my own near-perfect scores on the SAT & ACT) I was one of the first Instructors hired by PrepExpert, a national company that specializes in preparing students for the SAT, ACT, AP, other exams, and simply for help in regular classes at all levels. This company is so successful and growing so fast because of the unparalleled improvements among students that it recently appeared on ABC's show "Shark Tank," during which Mark Cuban was impressed enough to buy a substantial stake in the company and is a current partner.

From having been in the education field for over 10 years, I have come to learn that my teaching style is very much dependent on the learning style of the individual. Introducing young children to language requires a very different set of skills and expectations that teaching freshmen composition at the college level. I think the most important aspect of a teaching style is the ability to judge and modify instruction so that it is suited for the learner, and I always intend to teach the student, rather than just teach the material.
As an English teacher, I have had the opportunities to work with many different ages and levels of students. From foreign kindergarten students through degree seeking college students and varying levels in between, I have learned many different skills to help me approach each learner with the tools that make learning easy and enjoyable. I have profe ... read more

As an education student, I saw many opportunities in that field. I also saw the diversity of learners, and the need for a diversity in the way education is approached. I began to challenge myself by removing limitations like language, and searching for alternative techniques to teaching students of different cultural, socioeconomic, religious and behavioral backgrounds. Through my efforts, I found that to teach is to learn twice over, and that teaching can be beneficial for the student as well as the educator. I fell in love with education, and will never look back!
Throughout my career as a student, I have always prided myself on the ability to help others learn. When I was a high school student, I was the one other students would come to with questions, and I always gave an answer with confidence. Then I got to college and began to study Biology. I was so amazed at the broad spec ... read more

As a teacher/tutor, I take a genuine interest in the particular needs of each student. I make it my mission to not only teach the material but also to make sure my student has a solid grasp of each lesson. I am very fun-loving and love to make learning fun, but I take my job very seriously. I enjoy using a lot of supplementary materials, such as games, music, charts, computer programs, etc. to make learning interactive. It is important for a child to master a particular subject, but even more important than grasping any subject is the art of mastery, or developing the ability to learn.
I recently graduated from Pomona College, a liberal arts college ranked 4th in the nation. I received my Bachelors of Arts in Black Studies and minored in both politics and Spanish. Black Studies is an interdisciplinary major and includes such disciplines as literature, art history, history, cultu ... read more

I have been given the opportunity to teach elementary education for a total of 4 years. During this time I have taught 1st grade and 5th grade. In addition, I also have 4 years experience in special education-Resource.
I enjoy working with children and being actively involved as they progress in their journey of learning. I believe that all children have the ability to learn. As a teacher, it is my duty to identify the particular learning style each student uses to learn and succeed. I believe that if a child is given a patient teacher, an environment that encourages learning, and is recognized when they succeed, any child can succeed and learn what is needed to become our future leaders.

As a teacher, I am driven to help motivate students to reach their highest potential. I am patient and flexible and always willing to help provide examples to help students fully understand the material. I received a Bachelors from the University of Michigan and a Masters degree in Secondary Education from the University of Phoenix. While, at the University of Michigan, I was a writer for the student newspaper. Due to my previous experience as a writer, I learned not only how to be an effective writer but also about publishing. My audience was over 20,000 students. In the past, I have tutored elementary, middle, and high school students through other tutoring agencies in both Michigan and Nevada.

I enjoy sharing my knowledge with others, especially children to whom I provide exposure and enthusiasm of learning and understanding, so that they not only understand what they need to know, but can discover that they want to know more and can find the information themselves. Because I continue to read books and search the internet to satisfy my own thirst for knowledge, I know where the resources are for my students. Each child wants to learn—it is a survival instinct; but each child is different and will learn in different ways. I have the patience and the creativity to find the most effective teaching method for the child’s academic success. And most of all, I believe learning is fun.
Excellence in education and curiosity in the natural world, instilled in me since elementary school, has driven me to be an “A” student through my college education. The curriculums in premed ... read more

For the past two years, I have been a substitute teacher for the Clark County School District. My primary focus has been on elementary education, however, I am comfortable teaching all grade levels. My expertise is in English, grammar and writing. I have also spent a year prior to my move to Las Vegas, doing private tutoring in the Los Angeles area.
My first substitute teaching assignment was in a class of Autistic children. It was a great experience in that I realized how important patience is to the success of any teaching experience. Each step toward achieving a student's goals, whatever those goals may be, is to be savored. I enjoy helping students pursue their goals and helping them recognize and appreciate their opportunities to succeed.

Growing up my mother ran a tutoring program out of our home. This is where I initially learned the skills involved in tutoring. Ever since I was 16, I was aiding my mother in various tutoring sessions and when I entered University at age 18 I worked as a lead tutor for a tutoring program for at-risk children of the Azusa community in California. For two years, I worked with and watched as various children I tutored and mentored grew and overcame learning obstacles, excelling in the classroom as well as at home. Throughout my high school and university years, my education has fine-tuned my reading and writing skills through the endless process of research papers, thesis', and creative writings. Since then I have been tutoring in the subjects of reading, writing, math, Spanish, and cultural studies.
Teaching has always been a part of my life. My mother was constantly teaching me, alo ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Having many years of teching experience, I have always used a child centered approach. I normaly use a teaching style which is specific for a child. I normally take some time to identify the student's learing style and then use it to teach them.Since I work in an interest based charter school, I have valuable experience in assisting students apply themselves in ways they like.
I have taught for many years both in Kenya and in US. This has afforded me the opportunity to work with students of diverse cultures. I have tutored in mostly in Math and Sciences. I have tutored students for AtoZ tutoring where I assisted in reading comprehension and grammar. I currently work in a project based Charter school in Las Vegas.

I attended very rigorous academic institutions for both high school and college that demanded that their students achieve a well rounded education. As a result, I possess a vast amount of knowledge in a wide array of subjects. I am a very proficient writer and have also passed college level calculus and statistics. I have tutored students in all 5 basic subjects as well as Spanish, which I can speak, read, and write.
I have always enjoyed teaching and helping people learn. I discovered that I had a knack for it when I participated in a program tutoring fellow students while I was in high school. I have found that the most effective way to tutor children is to get them excited about learning as well as to make sure that they believe in themselves. I have seen that all children can learn if they have the desire, the motivation, and the proper guidance.

I am fortunate to have multiple intelligence. Since an early age, I have been motivated to increase my knowledge base and skill levels. My desires have motivated me to earn a double majored BS in agriculture, an applied science, and a MS in biology. I taught laboratory classes while I was a student.
