A Little Bit About Me...

I have helped children prepare for preschool through games and activities, and community college students brainstorm ideas for transfer essays. I am very organized, responsible and trustworthy. I have worked at a Montessori preschool and am comfortable using hands-on, creative methods for learning. Each student is different and learning approaches need to reflect that. I have worked with sensory-sensitive preschoolers, mentally challenged high school students, and ESL students ranging in age from 3 to 40. Whether they needed to learn how to tie their shoes, write an essay, the parts of an atom, how to use a conjunction, why the slope of a line is important, or how to write their name, I was there to help.

More About This Tutor...

Teaching has been a lifelong avocation relating from elementary education through seminary level theology for high school students. Interaction with infants through young adults, to include disabled youth, in a part time teaching environment, has brought many satisfying teaching memories. I have had the opportunity to instruct mainly in religous studies and preschool crafts for the past 30 years and have enjoyed all levels of students.
Working full time in the corporate has fine tuned interaction skills that I have been able to utilize when teaching early morning seminary classes as well as weekend nursery and primary classes in our Church. I believe that the importance we place on education our children now will benefit our world in their future. Children take in all the world presents to them and by providing positive, correct learning principles, their potentials for good are en ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I have taught and tutored both children and adults in a wide variety of situations, from job training and test preparation to tutoring for a specific subject. I have taught ESL classes and done individual tutoring, as well as both group and one-on-one instruction in grammar and composition. I have tutored for SAT, ACT, TOEFL, TOEIC, ISEE and entrance exams. I have created my own materials for such tutoring but also use books available commercially.
I am interactive and student-centered. I see where the student's strengths lie and build from there. We do homework and tests together, and I move from a coaching role to an observational one, only coaching occasionally as necessary. We work not only on the subject matter, but techniques which improve comprehension, retention, organization and motivation.

I volunteer for HOBY (Hugh O'Brian Youth Leadership Seminar) every year. This program pushes facilitation, which is what I strive to do. I like to try to facilitate and push my students to ask questions and talk to me as a peer. I always try to give at least three compliments to every criticism because students are often too hard on themselves. For some reason, most of the students I have worked with have had an English teacher along the line who has made them feel "stupid." It is amazing what boosting confidence can do! I like to understand where students are coming from and what their specific needs are so I can address them in a way that best fits their learning style and experiences.

A Little Bit About Me...

I am a homeschooling mom of 20 years. I have homeschooled my 6 kids K through 12th grade. Three of my children have graduated my homeschool. Two of those have completed college and one is in her sophomore year. I am still teaching 3 of my kids. Over the years, I have taught every grade and every subject. Most years I have been doing both phonics and physics. Over the past year I have been tutoring kids in math and language arts.
I firmly believe that it is the responsibility of the teacher to find a way to present material so it is understood by the student. Too many schools criticize a child's ability to learn when the child doesn't respond to the school's one method of teaching. I enjoy finding ways to make concepts simple and fun for the child. I love to awaken in my students a fascination for subjects that they believe to be uninteresting or too hard for them.

As a Yoga Instructor and studio owner over the past ten years, I have held several Teacher Trainings, and taught the Anatomy and Physiology part of all these. First hand, as a single mother, I have raised my son, currently in high school and I have hands on experience raising him and keeping him on track. He is an above average student and I have found that staying involved, asking probing questions and creating a routine have all contributed to his success.
My teaching style is one of encouragement and confidence building. When I have taught Biology to those who don’t understand it, I have found success in trying to relate the science to something that the student can relate. I believe it is important to keep a student progressing and that praise as well as honest feedback can help them achieve this goal. My mother is a life-long teacher and I have learned a lot by being aroun ... read more

I love children (re: four of my own) and thoroughly enjoy everything from tutoring them in subjects to building projects together with them in the workshop. I understand that every child is different and thus learns differently. I respect this and meet each child at their individual level which makes my easy-going style effective. Most of all, I endeavor to make learning fun! A child – or anybody for that matter – will toil if their job seems like work. However, if it’s made to be fun, then it becomes memorable and will stay with them for a lifetime. I believe that a solid foundation built with fundamentals is very important since everything else they learn in life will be built upon that foundation. Finally, I strive to be a positive role model to children because there can never be enough of those in their life.

A Little Bit About Me...

My approach to tutoring is based on the belief that science is a fun and interesting subject. I always maintain a positive attitude and attempt to teach science without being boring. I have good communication skills and can work with students in a constructive, encouraging, and non-abrasive manner. As a tutor my job is to connect with my students, make the subject interesting, and relate it to their lives in some way so they are actively involved in the learning process. In my experience this is the best way to help students become successful.
Throughout my educational career I have always enjoyed science classes. Due to this proficiency I was selected as a teacher's assistant for two undergraduate Biology classes. I also took 3 science based education classes. These classes were a great experience where we worked at a local high school with three exceptional science teachers ... read more

From September ‘08 - January ‘10 I was at the UCD – LRC tutoring students in Biology, Chemistry, Organic Chemistry, and Biochemistry doing individual tutoring as well as multiple-student tutoring. I sincerely enjoyed my work at the LRC for it gave me the opportunity to become accomplished in many different areas. It strengthened my understanding in the above subjects and my leadership skills. I was able to motivate students in their coursework by using the perspective and experiences of a student and practice being a leader in large groups of students. Working at the LRC gave me a new understanding of myself, as well as a new found self-confidence with not only my own knowledge of the material, but also a confidence in teaching others.
During my time at the LRC, I developed a teaching style where I first understood the learning style of the student (i.e. visual or auditory) and the ... read more

My main goal in teaching is to connect personally with the student in a professional manner which enables mutual respect and trust to be built. This kind of teacher-student relationship allows for the best atmosphere in which a student can learn. My first task as a teacher is to find out how the student is motivated, and then to follow through with motivating the student to reach his or her potential (also requiring appropriate levels of achievement). Of course, good communication with the parent and/or classroom teacher who also has goals for the student who is being tutored is imperative.

A Little Bit About Me...

As long as I can remember, I have loved learning and working with children. Although, I began my higher education pursuits by obtaining a bachelor's degree in Communication, I quickly realized what I truly wanted to do was teach. So, I returned to school and obtained my teaching license in elementary education. I have been working with children in public and private schools and daycare settings ever since. I have primarily worked with children in preschool-5th grade, and am very comfortable with these age groups. I particularly enjoy teaching reading, writing, social studies, mathematics and the arts.
I love teaching and working with children. This is my passion, and I firmly believe all children can and will learn, given the appropriate instuction and resources to succeed. I am patient, easygoing, and like to make learning as fun as possible. I am available to work with your ... read more
