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.
I worked at Moorpark College as an ESL and Writing Tutor, helping students discover ways to identify and clarify ideas, refine a topic, outline ideas, and develop the skills neede ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I believe learning should be fun regardless of one’s age and I will strive to make reading a fun as possible for each child I tutor. Reading for pleasure or to successfully complete a variety of assignments is very important to academic achievement and certainly enhances our personal lives. I believe all children can learn but they do so at different speeds and preferred methods. Constant encouragement and achievable goals help children reach their potential. I am patient and persistent and would help your child continue to improve his or her reading skills. I have tutored an adult woman from the Philippines who had a third grade education by using the Laubach Literacy method and thoroughly enjoyed it.
A life long love of learning has influenced me to pursue a Bachelor’s degree in Nutrition and more recently, a Master’s degree in Human Relations with an emphasis in counseling. ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I believe that all students can achieve in an academically and behaviorally rigorous environment. With the help of parental involvement and tutoring, and without watering down curriculum, any child can be successful if the effort is made. Most of my experience is in teaching classes that are textbook-focused and teacher-driven, although I am open to other styles as well.
During and after my college years, I have always had an interest in helping others become better writers. For three years I worked as a tutor at Alfred University's writing center. I also have eight years of experience teaching junior high English at a rigorous school. The school I teach in has a back-to-basics curriculum with a focus on the rules of grammar and writing. I not only taught in the classroom, but also dedicated my time after school to tutoring individual students.

A Little Bit About Me...

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 endless.
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 stu ... read more

I have experience working with both audio/visual learners and a kinesthetic/tactile learner. The kinesthetic/tactile learner had learning disabilities akin to ADD, but still did very well in the small group environment. I believe that children who want to learn will do so given the proper setting and sufficient time to succeed. I have very high patience for children who try hard and still struggle, but I do expect the student to give their best effort at each task.
I earned a Bachelor of Science from The Ohio State University in 1984. My subjects of passion were math and science and I enjoy working with children who struggle in those areas. I have home schooled my son through the end of 12th grade and he was ready for college freshman classes at age 15. Starting in his second grade year, we were joined by a student who has learning disabilities. He also thrived in the tutori ... 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.

A Little Bit About Me...

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.

My Elementary teaching career spans three decades. I have taught students in grades pre-school through grade 5. The majority of my teaching years were spent with the younger students. I have earned National Board Certification as an Early Childhood Generalist. I am a Master teacher in teaching students to read and write. I also have considerable expertise in teaching elementary mathematics, especially grades Kindergarten through grade 3.In addition I have taught informational technology to elementary students in grades pre-school through 5th grade. I currently teach new teachers how to teach at Metropolitan State College.
It is absolutely true that all students can learn, given the right circumstances. Not all children learn in the same way and follow the same path. A good teacher forms a relationship with her students and takes her cues from the student. I believe in active, hands ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

As a Valedictorian of my 2001 high school class, I went on to the University of Colorado, Boulder to earn a bachelor degree in Accounting. This degree has allowed me to gain extensive knowledge of how to make use of math after school. Accounting, however, did not make me feel completely fulfilled in my career. I wanted to make a difference in the world and, to achieve this, I feel like I need to teach. I have an alternative teaching license in business and am seeking an endorsement in math. I am currently taking 3 math classes. I am also a substitute teacher. In addition, I have tutored in math and science all through high school.
My desires to make an impact on someone’s life have led me to develop a teaching style based on passion. I have become dedicated to making an impact on every student’s life. I strive to motivate the students to explore themselves and expand their ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

As long as I can remember, I wanted to be a teacher, especially a teacher of students who struggle to learn. I didn't begin school until I was 28 because I married my high school sweetheart and started a family. Once I started college at St. Mary of the Plains, I was completely enthralled with the curriculum, my teachers and the atmosphere! I'll never forget that feeling of the love of learning which I carry with me today. That's what I want to give my students, the gift of being passionate about learning.
I give my students the benefit of the doubt. In the beginning and throughout the school year, I assume that my students are giving me their best. It may not be at grade level, and may be sloppy and hard to read but it's what they can do right now. Then, the hard work begins! My students are so proud when a few short months later, they can write a little neater and it's more leg ... read more

More About This Tutor...

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.
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.

More About This Tutor...

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.
