Make school work.

Not all students are successful and the trick is to identify the reasons behind the lack of success. The issues that students have with school are diverse; procrastination, lack of organization, failure to plan, lack of awareness, ineffective habits, learning disabilities, and differences are all possible explanations for school failure. I work with students one on one to help them pinpoint where things break down for them and then work with them to find strategies to help them manage the skills and material they are asked to learn and master. I am there to guide, not just instruct.
I have been in education for 16 years. I specialize in working with students with ADD/ADHD, specific learning disabilities as well as students who underachieve. I have a Master's Degree in Special Education and have successfully worked with students all over the Bay Area to help them realize their ... read more

My comments on tutoring Government : Able to help with subject

I work with all different types of learners such as visual, auditory, kinesthetic, and read write when it comes to students. I make sure that the children and adults will understand the course material and subject matter they are working on of their own academics.
I have had 22 years total of tutoring experience, worked for six different supplemental educational services tutoring providers, worked for three different online tutoring companies, and have eleven years of experience as an ESL Teacher. In addition, I have the content knowledge of the academic subjects, am confident, and interested in what I am tutoring. My goal with the parents is to help their child work towards improved grades, increased confidence, and performing at or above the grade level. As for adults I am knowledgeable about the subject matter and course material. Also, I do Free Talk lessons as to whatever you' ... read more

Government is one of my top subjects!

I was employed by the Manteca Unified School District as an Instructional Aide. I tutored in SDC classes and worked with students individually and in groups mainly on reading comprehension. In my own time, I would help middle school and college students with math. While I was in college, as an undergrad, I would help graduate students with essays and would steer them in the right direction.

I truly care about the success of each child I work with.

Whatever style my individual student needs: visual, auditory, kinesthetic, use of media/technology, learning games/activities, etc. I provide a quiet, organized, well-planned, structured, standards-based lesson plans.

I have been teaching for twenty seven years in various grades, schools, and types of classes. I taught for 16 years in a bilingual classroom. My last 11 years of teaching have been in a traditional classroom. I have taught every grade level from 1st to 7th, and currently, I even teach an ESL class after school. My areas of expertise would be writing, English grammar, Spanish, and social sciences. I currently tutor students to prepare for their state tests in May. I feel that my experience has led me to a place where I can say that I am prepared and qualified to teach most students with success.
I respect my students and they respect me. I expect them to work hard, because I work hard, as well. I will do what is humanly possible to help them achieve their goals. I connect with students on a personal level to find out their manner of learning, and after that, I find materials which w ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I have a passion to empower students with the proper tools and techniques to learn more and be confident in the classroom. By being accessible, a great communicator, and creative, I am determined to provide each child with the assistance they need to reach academic success. I am able to adapt to how each child learns because I am open minded and patient with children. I enjoy teaching children “hands on” methods of learning the curriculum so that they can gain knowledge of the course material in an interesting and interactive way. It is very important to me that children discover new techniques to learning in a manner that fits their personality because not every child learns using the same techniques. Furthermore, I believe that a positive environment is always part of the educating process and I will strive to connect with each child in order to help children triumph.

More About This Tutor...

As a accomplished student, I realized I always had help along the help with achieving academic success. From teachers and counselors to my peers and older students. I began to help other with academics as early as the third grade, however I began to commit to tutoring in High School and continue it through-out college, in hopes to eventually becoming a teacher in the future.
I believe anyone can teach a subject, having enough knowledge of a subject allows one to pass it on. However, I feel what many teachers do not do is teach students how to learn. It is in my belief that teaching students to learn enables them to think independently allowing them to become more creative rather than repetitive. So not only do I teach students the subject, I teach them how to learn and apply it to every other subject.
