I excelled in both math and English tracks in high school, and when they ran out of math classes I could take, I started on computers. I put myself through college tutoring all levels of math from basic mathematics to advanced calcusus (though I never did like trig). I've been an award-winning professional website designer/developer for 16 years.

My comments on tutoring Geography : high school teaching experience

Recognizing as does William Glasser that students perform and learn in school only when their “basic needs” are met, students need a structured environment to allow them to focus on learning, but the central goal of schools is to provide students with intellectual tools to understand the physical and social worlds around them. Standards must be related to the lives of students so that they can become intrinsically motivated. Standards must be packaged and encapsulated as “essential ideas” to make them meaningful and accessible. Curriculum needs to be made exciting and relevant so that intrinsically motivated student can make it their own, and rigorous and challenging so that students are motivated and empowered to learn.
I have nearly a decade of secondary school teaching experience, including public and charter schools, middle schools and high schools. I am highly skilled an ... read more

I have tutored close to 15 young adults on subjects ranging from History to elementary grammar. I often tutor high school and college level students but I can also tutor younger students. I have patience and if I fail my task I will stay at no additional charge to make sure your son or daughter grasps the material. I can also bring along tutors in other subjects at no extra charge. I am very professional, I always show up early and bring along materials to help the student succeed.
I do interactive tutoring with hands on lessons. I can also teach large groups at one time while focusing on the individual.

Geography is one of my top subjects! I have studied geography in college, 3 classes and I have travelled the world many times during which I experienced geography first hand.

I taught an undergraduate class in political science many years ago. Since then, I have trained 100's of employee's throughout my business career. I use many of the principles I learned in the West Point Leadership Program and they have proven to serve everyone very well. I have 15 years "hands on" experience in municipal government, working at the highest level.

Let Tyrone educate your child!

Accomplished reporter/writer, Los Angeles Daily News. Teacher's Aide, Los Angeles Unified School District. Bachelor of Arts, Journalism, CSUN. Over the years I gained a wealth of experience and training to work with professionals in journalism and in education. The two are related, because they are a part of communication, to work with people and to help someone get an education.
My teaching style encourages a person to ask questions, to think independently, to challenge themselves, to use language they can understand, and my style is strict, but flexible.

I have a passion and calling for working with children. From the time I was a child, I knew this is what I was meant to do. I believe children are the hope of our country, and that every child is capable of learning and expanding their knowledge. Knowledge is power, and if a child is given the proper encouragement and motivation they can and will succeed. I consider it an amazing privilege to be an educator and make a difference in the lives of my students.
Throughout my college years I have been employed by two different after school programs for a combined amount of 6 years tutoring/teaching in public school after school programs. (Grades K-6) I also spent 2 months teaching full time 3rd and 4th grade after college prior to unfortunately being laid off due to financial losses in the school. I also tutored English in college through an Advanced English class I was placed in.

A Little Bit About Me...

I tutored philosophy students for a year while in college. I earned a master's degree in early childhood education and taught second grade for two years. I also was a substitute teacher for grades K-8th. Currently, I am a motivational speaker and a mentor through United We Mentor.
My teaching style involves a positive approach. I believe students learn best in an environment that is both positive and challenging. Positive feedback is essential because students are encouraged to take risks and solve problems. A challenging classroom teaches critical thinking skills that are necessary for the global market.

My philosophy of education is to be democratic. All students have a voice in decision making. All students can learn. I encourage individuality and independence. Students learn through examples, modeling, and setting high expectations. I teach through discovery and a constructivist approach. I believe all students can meet their potential if they are given the appropriate surroundings and learning experiences. Students will excel by learning new strategies and techniques. I work hard to make a difference in my students lives.
As long as I can remember, I have loved education. Beginning in my backyard with my cat and dog to my brothers and cousins, I have been a teacher. I grew up to be a teacher and enjoy teaching and tutoring children. I completed my first degree and received my teaching credential in 1990. Recently, I completed my second Masters degree in Special Education an ... read more

I love being a teacher! I believe all children can learn but some need different approaches. I am always trying different ways to reach my students. I care about every student that comes into my classroom. I have very high expectations for all of my students. I am always exploring new ways to teach. I know I have made a difference in many of my students. Students that I have had in the past always tell me I am very fair, respectful, kind, and demanding. I expect that all of my students to try their best. I feel that every child will be successful in some special area. I never give up on any student. I also feel that positive reinforcement is extremely important.

I love to motivate and present information, that is unique. For example, what note or bill is the lowest denomination ever printed and has the portrait of George Washington on it? If you gave me the obvious answer of the one-dollar bill, than that would be the wrong answer. The correct answere is the three-cent note printed in 1862. The bill is still legal tender, although it is worth a lot more as a collector's item. I make my students think. For example, what would happen to you, if you took off your spacesuit on Mars? I'm running out of space, but I made you indulge in critical thinking.
I have six years experience, working in the LAUSD system. I have tutoring experience with the Tutors of the Inland Empire and Basic Educational Services.

Education is extremely important to me. As an educator, I think it is important to not only share one's knowledge, but to be able to adapt one's teaching style for each student. Through my experience, I know it is important to have patience and be open-minded with my students. I enjoy tutoring and being a positive role model to all my students.
I have earned a bachelors degree in Psychology, passed the CBEST, and have about four years of work experience as a tutor. I tutored students, ranging from grades K-12, in various subjects, but mainly in Mathematics and Language Arts/Reading. Also, in a previous position, I managed after-school tutoring programs for both elementary and junior high schools at the school site, in-home, and public location/library.

A Little Bit About Me...

I recently graduated from U.C. Berkeley, where I earned a BA in Philosophy with a minor in English literature. For three years I worked as a freelance tutor. I honed my skills tutoring essay writing, English, U.S. History, basic economics, and Algebra 1 and 2.  I have also tutored for several AP courses, all of which I personally received a score of '5': AP English,  AP Art History, AP European History, and AP U.S. History. I also have experience tutoring for the SAT, especially in the verbal portion of the exam. For two years I worked as an editor of a noted journal of philosophy, which taught me to constructively criticize essays and gave me a mastery over English grammar. Currently, I tutor young learners in Echo Park.
I enjoy working with all kinds of students, and especially with high schoolers gearing up to go to college. I am punctual, patient, and extremely clear in my comm ... read more

I have thoroughly enjoyed teaching throughout my entire life. I put myself through Cal State Los Angeles, earning a Multiple Subject Credential, Special Ed. Credential, and a Reading/Language Arts Specialist Credential. I have worked and tutored many 'At Risk' students, and pupils with behavioral issues. I am a very patient person, very compassionate, and have a very strong sense of fair play. I am a very dependable individual, and feel that I could be a great asset to your organization.
I have a very structured classroom, yet I believe in 'teachable moments'. I work with the children 'where they are', and make progress accordingly. I believe in positive reinforcement, and I am very sincere with compliments. I've had much experience teaching any subject to any age K-12. I consider each pupil an individual, and provide one on one instruction to each and every student. I bel ... read more
