My undergraduate degree from was a Bachelor of Science in Business Administration with a minor in Biology, so I have a lot of experience with writing papers and utilizing analysis skills in math and science. In addition, I spend a large portion of my time in college as a tutor for other students, particularly in subjects such as Chemistry, Economics, and Calculus. Recently, I have tutored large groups of elementary school students in the community, following a specific standards established by the California Board of Education. Also, as a current graduate student, I feel that I am able to assist undergraduate college students to a great extent and possibly guide them along a path to further their education as well. I enjoying helping others and teaching them what I know, whatever age they may be. I am very patient and friendly, which are characteristics I find to be important in a tutor.

I have tutored children in reading last summer. It was one of the most gratifying things I have done. I worked with English as second language children ranging from ages 5 to 13. We used a lesson plan and several activities to help children in achieving their reading level goals. Also, in my undergrad experience, I excelled in writing and was very good with meeting deadlines. I am a very down to earth person especially when it comes to kids. I always try to lighten up the mood and make learning things interesting and fun. I don't like to dismiss when I see a child having trouble in something. Every person has a different way of learning, I try to cater to each of their needs.

I grew up in a multi-cultural home, and I was exposed to foreign languages from a very young age and continuously throughout my childhood. We had a French exchange student spend 3 different summers with us, and I studied Spanish, French, and German in high school. Then, I began traveling frequently to Europe, culminating in my junior year in college Education Abroad Program in Bordeaux, France and Togo, West Africa. I have developed a great understanding and sensitivity towards cultural patterns of communication and behavior and my foreign language study has enabled me to decode and explain linguistic differences. Since 2002, I've been working in education as a substitute teacher and more recently as a full-time French teacher. Any child can learn a foreign language (FL). Math, science, literature, art, in fact, any subject, all use their own specific jargon. It is essential to not o

My experience in the teaching field has been primarily as a substitute on a daily basis. I have some long-term sub assignments in my resume as well. For the past 7 years I have limited my assignments to "Home/Hospital". I meet 5 hours per week with each student to provide complete instruction in all subject areas for the student(s) unable to be in the regular classroom setting due to illness. It is very much a tutoring situation as 5 hours per week is not nearly enough to provide the detailed instruction available on a daily basis. It seems to me that everyone can learn, in different ways and at different times. My approach is to have several options of which approach will be successful. Being a 1:1 teacher allows me the freedom and time to work with a student on a concept in a number of ways until the cognition sets in for him. Being enthusiastic and excited about the learning expe

I am a firm believer that each child is special and distinct and each should be approached differently in order to achieve the maximum results. My goal is to instill in each student a love of learning which will benefit them for the rest of their studies and lives, not just through their current difficulty. Every student can learn, no matter what the challenge, if they have someone there to guide them in the correct path. I desire to build in each child the ability to reason through each subject and arrive at the correct conclusions. My ultimate goal is to make learning fun and desirable. Learning opens doors and opportunities that will benefit each child forever. Since graduating from highschool, I have had the desire to encourage and expand the knowledge base and love of learning for each student in my care. Having grown up in multiple countries, I am fluent in English, Spanish,

When I entered college I was immediately drawn to tutor my peers as needed. I worked with the single mom's program at IVC and also did job coaching for the City of Long Beach Disabled program. Once I graduated from college I had the opportunity to join the Boys & Girls Clubs, specifically designing educational and technology programs. I enjoyed tutoring about 50 youth a day. As a result some parents requested that I run a special off hours program at their middle school to tutor the ADHD kids. Every child in that program raised their grades 60% over the course of the semester. Since that time I have honed the methods I have created to work with the "hard to reach" kids and have had tremendous success. My teaching style is straight and to the point. My goal is to make the kids understand that the only thing holding them back is themselves. Hard work and a desire to learn will win eve

During college, I worked as a home-school Spanish, Language Arts and History teacher for students ages seven through fourteen. I volunteered in classrooms, tutored, and provided childcare for children with special needs. I studied Spanish and abroad. Upon graduation, I began my teaching career in L.A. where I taught kindergarten. After three years, I decided to teach abroad and moved to a small Chinese city where I taught preschool. Back in the U.S., I taught an intervention class for struggling readers in the second and third grades. I also tutored for students after school in their homes. Currently, I am a second grade teacher at La Joya Elementary School in Salinas, CA. I also taught kindergarten at the school for two years. I have always had a passion for teaching students who face challenges in their lives. My focus is on the student and his lifelong education above test scores.

I am an empathetic listener with a penchant for learning. A successful tutor needs to be an effective listener, one who is capable of figuring out the solution from the student's perspective, using terms and words that the student can relate to, making deceptively difficult concepts not so difficult to understand. A lot of times, all the student needs is a little help defining and assimilating new information presented to him, and I see myself as a facilitator of that process. I am creative and flexible, patient and persistent, sometimes a borderline perfectionist, and I never tire of the many "eureka!" moments experienced by my peers and students with whom I have had the opportunity to work. I am a trained researcher in molecular biology, with a BS in Neurobiology, Physiology, & Behavior, and MS in Nutritional Biology. I spent some time as an undergraduate volunteering at a local teen c
