More About This Tutor...

My teaching approach is to customize lessons and activities according to what the student needs in order to progress in the most effective and rapid manner. I teach at a pace that's comfortable for the student. However, the student must master the lesson material before proceeding to the next lesson. I accomplish this by testing the student upon completion of the lesson. What sets my program apart is that I'm very patient when providing instruction, I care about my students' progress, I’m passionate about the subject, and that I communicate clearly and in a very interesting manner. I encourage them to express themselves freely and creatively without being afraid to make mistakes.

A Little Bit About Me...

My approach is to assess the needs of the individual. What are the learning goals? To pass a class, excel at certain content, or improve grades? This is important to understand so that we are both moving toward an identical objective and can travel together to that end. I am able to design a learning strategy for all content but particularly am knowledgeable in all social sciences and comprehension areas.
I am an educator by training, experience, and passionate interest. My Ph.D. in Instructional Technology has enabled me to assist all students with their learning challenges by devising specific and customized strategies that help each individual master content. I have been in adult learning positions in both corporate and higher education environments and would like to teach people of all ages how to learn what they need to know. I have worked with groups, online educatio ... read more

Eight years ago my nephew became part of the Arizona juvenile system. Having dealt with all that entails, I made the decision to make a difference in childrens lives. It is my belief that children need positive role models in their life beyond the mother and father. I was lucky to have such role models in my life and would like the opportunity to be one myself. I have laid back attitude, have raised two sons that have become two wonderful, respectful teenagers with a bright future in front of them. My attitude and experience, both work and rel life, has prepared me to be a great leader.

A Little Bit About Me...

As a former paraprofessional with a Master's Degree in Social Work I have worked with kids in the past behaviorally and academically. I have a solid grasp of English, Grammar, Social Studies, and Mathematics.
I enjoy working with children of all ages. I feel my career in social work has allowed me to become more centered on compassion as a means of education, and engaging the child in the learning process while being compassionate. Children typically learn best when in a positive, comfortable situation. I would like them to feel comfortable enough to feel like they can be their best around me.

A Little Bit About Me...

I love teaching and working with children of all ages. I believe in encouraging children to discover what they are to learn instead of rote learning for most things, and I also believe in establishing automaticity for some tasks, such as math facts and geometry theorems. I believe that all children are capable of learning with the right approach. It is important to persist in teaching a concept from different angles until the child "gets it." A good educator can make a world of difference to a child. I am a strong proponent of reinforcing a child's strengths through positive encouragement and exhibiting an enthusiasm for the subject at hand to foster interest on the part of the student.

A Little Bit About Me...

As I am a very auditory/visual learner, I tend to to lean towards both auditory and visual techniques. I question the students as to what he or she intended to say in their writing, what is the intent of the paper--will this persuade the reader, inform the reader, compare/contrast ideas-- and see if the writer is in fact accomplishing this goal through effect word choices, sound reasoning, specific examples, and other components of writing. The hope is to edit the document for clarity geared towards the reader of the document and to polish the writing skills of the student.

In high school I was able to tutor students in all subjects ranging from English to Math to Musical Studies. Furthering my education at Trinity University in San Antonio, TX really opened my eyes and mind to wider ranges of educational foundations. As a double major in Communication and Classical Studies, I was able to get a well rounded education in all subjects. I feel that I am also skilled in math and got a minor in Art History. I have always enjoyed tutoring students and seeing them "get" the subjects we are touching on.

I have been teaching since 2005, and doing one-on-one tutoring for just as long. I graduated with a BA in Anthropology, and an MA in Philosophy and Religion. Most of my teaching has been with children ages 10-14, though I have experience with everyone from Kindergarten to College. During my Masters, I wrote my thesis on the Philosophy of Science, and studied Ancient Archaeology in depth during my undergraduate years. I write fiction in my spare time, and have extensive experience with research and term papers. I feel comfortable and competent to teach most basic subjects and levels, though my knowledge of math tapers off after 8th grade.
Through my years of teaching I have worked with a variety of learners with different needs. I have worked with children with Autism, ADHD, gifted children, and children with strong emotional needs. I have had to approach each individual diffe ... read more

My education background began in 1990. That year I earned my AA in education from Scottsdale Community College in the area of education. In 1992 I received my BA from Arizona State University in education.

I hold Arizona state certifications in regular education K-8; special education K-12 and emotional disabilities K-12. I am highly certified in these areas and hold a bachelor’s degree (1992) plus many extra hours in the field of education with a master’s equivalency. I have tutored students while earning my degrees and after school when I was employed with the Balsz district. I have developed many individual education plans during my year ... read more
