More About This Tutor...

In January of 2012, I gained teaching experience as a part-time English instructor for Korean exchange students (ages ranging from 13 to 17 years old). My responsibility for this job was to provide the students with appropriate exercises and assignments to assist them in improving their English reading skills. I also gave lessons in vocabulary and assignments to help them better understand the proper usage of the vocabulary words. These assignments also served to teach the students about American culture and traditions. In March of 2013, I received my MA in English from CSU, Bakersfield. I also published my first thesis. From May of 2013 to September of 2013, I gained some experience working with children (ages ranging from 6 to 22) with Autism and like disorders as an instructional aide.

A Little Bit About Me...

I believe that all learners are capable of high achievement if they receive appropriate support, and with a recent Master's Degree in Education, I am well-versed in current best practices. I have a student-centered approach that involves assessing student needs, interests, and learning style and developing learning activities and approaches to assigned material based on this information. I believe that learning should be fun and lifelong learners are made when students enjoy learning. Though I am very focused on using tutoring time productively, I also find ways of making learning fun and meaningful.

My comments on tutoring Special Education : I draw on my personal education to bring empathy to students with learning differences. Art is a means to bridge communication deficits, allowing the student to find their voice and express themselves.

I do not believe in negative critique. It can be extremely harmful to someone's self image. Instead I praise what the student has accomplished and encourage ways to grow skills and enhance the image created. I prefer to teach one-on-one or two students at a time so that I can personalize the lesson to what the student wants to learn or is interested in drawing. This allows the student to achieve successful growth quickly so they want to keep learning.
I have been tutoring art for over 3 years. My students have often had learning disabilities but that has not stopped them from being successful with traditional as well as digital art. You can view my skills as an artist at zakfalco.com . I have experience tutoring traditional drawing, pastels, charcoal, and pen and ink skills. I also have extensive experience with digital art tutoring in Photoshop, Illustrator, Maya, After Effec ... read more

Instruction includes a routine warm up and review time and is followed with a variety of instruction methods that may include hands on and tactile activities to solidify a concept, cognitive strategies to enhance the ability to think logically and/or creatively,and a final review of key points for the day.
I've been teaching and tutoring students in grades K - 8, as a credentialed teacher since 1991, and mentored students as a tutor in my neighborhood for several years while my own children were small. I have fantastic results instructing students who find it difficult to concentrate and stay focused, and additional experience teaching children and adults who are learning English as a second language.
