Ex-classroom school teacher with 10 years plus experience!

My teaching style is one that always tries to relate to the child and to have fun. Does the child enjoy video games, dinosaurs, soccer, dance, or a particular cartoon character? When I discover what it is the child enjoys, I bring that element into the subject we are learning about. If the child likes soccer and struggles in reading, I research about famous soccer players and find books on them. Perhaps, at the end of a teaching session, we go outside and kick the soccer ball for 5 minutes as a source of inspiration to get work completed. Bringing in other ways of learning through play and games is also something I enjoy. Playing simple math games or reading games is a easy way to teach a child, without them realizing they are learning.

More About This Tutor...

Student centered and dialogue.
I have taught algebra, geometry, ESL, English Grammar, and Arabic language for over nine years. Most of my teachings have been one-on-one where I use standard textbooks, secondary sources, and additional materials to reinforce classroom/online learning. I provide plenty of time for Q&A session. I use various teaching methods; for the most part, this include student centered learning. I also focus on differentiation learning, where I attempt to cater to each student's learning needs.

My comments on tutoring Basic Learning Skills : As an early childhood teacher I have experience helping children develop their fine motor skills , reading and writing get ting them ready for first grade. I program activities that are fun and Taylor them to my students so I can satisfy their needs and interest.

I think that children have different ways of learning so I combine the materials used so every child have their ends meet. I use music, art crafts, stories and hands on activities so they can learn in a natural way and in a fun way as well. I am convinced that if you provide your student the right material you will get a good result making the learning experience rich and positive.
I am a experienced Peruvian teacher with over 15 years of experience. I am blessed to have a vast experience with all ages of students from Nursery up to middle school. I Worked as a Bilingual teacher in my country and I am actually about to be certified as an bilingual EC-6 Generalist Teacher. I had the chance to work with PK students and help them be ready for their first year of school teaching them the basic skills of reading, writing and developed their math concepts as well as enrichment of ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I tutored all subjects - especially in Math all through High School. I also tutored in college. I have strong skills in Math - all levels - but I especially enjoy algebra. I have two children and I basically taught my oldest son math, since he was a different kind of learner than the way they teach at school. He is a very kinesthetic type learner and needs to see, feel and touch to understand the concepts - so I used a lot of tools to help him. I can tutor math and science exceptionally well and other subjects for the younger levels.
I enjoy teaching when there is a bit of a challenge getting the student to understand the concept. As I have mentioned, I can use different styles to help the student get the concept. I have a great deal of patience and believe that everyone can learn. I enjoy the way someone looks after they have understood and mastered an idea.
