A Little Bit About Me...

My goal is to help prepare students to meet the challenges of the new millennium. I realize technology is, and will continue to be, a driving force in workplaces, communities, and personal lives; I want to reinforce the learning skills of students and bring them to the twenty-first century; It is important for students to receive a solid education. Students must actively learn skills that will help them be successful learners in the future; and as a tutor I’m aware of and sensitive to a students individual needs and as a consequence help students unlock their full potential.
My areas of expertise include Spanish, Math and English Language Arts; though, I have acquired experience providing 1- on -1 and in-home academic tutoring to students from grades k-12th in all subject areas. I have extensive knowledge, and skills working as a tutor for students under the No Child Left Behind ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have taught and tutored undergraduate science students extensively as part of my Masters degree, in diverse biological and genetic fields. I have taught and tutored elementary school reading, science and math as part of a comprehensive home school curriculum.
My teaching style is geared towards the individual strengths and weaknesses of each student and their ability to absorb and learn new information in the specific format optimized for learning. Incorporating the love of learning new ideas and concepts in a child's life will expose the child to a wide array of opportunities ins his/her future academic development.

More About This Tutor...

I really enjoy tutoring kids in science classes because it is something that interests me and that I understand, so I want anyone who I tutor to know everything that I know. Since I am set to going to Physical Therapy school in 2010, it is a subject that I have to know very well, therefore, I have a lot of information about it.
I graduated from Cal Baptist University with a 3.87 GPA. My major was Kinesiology with concentrations in exercise science and physical education. During my senior year in college, I would regularly tutor my fellow classmates in anatomy and physiology and I am just finishing up taking biology at College of the Desert.

A Little Bit About Me...

I found consistently thoughout my teaching career that learning is enhanced with adjunctive, extensive illustrations and a hands on approach with related laboratory investigations whenever possible. I so enjoy my approach to teaching utilizing these additional factors to the lecture because I have seen the results in the degree to which my students have learned. My classes scored among the highest in national achievement testing for two years in a row. I thoroughly enjoy teaching and the satisfaction I realize when seeing how well a student has responded to my teaching efforts.
It is essential that the student learns, both the basics and the specifics of the subject matter being presented to him or her. It is equally essential that the instructor presents those concepts to the student in a manner that is clear, easy to understand and meaningful. Not only have I been colleged t ... read more

While I pride myself on being approachable, patient and easy going, I tend to approach teaching in a methodical manner. I believe that student's time and attention is very valuable, and warrants preparation and thoroughness. My initial approach is always to first assess a student's needs, goals, learning style, and accomplishments. Next, I pick a strategy to approach the needs of the student. For example, I might select a straight-forward text or document from which I could teach loosely, such as the book "With Good Reason". (It is an excellent text on argumentative methods.) Editing and reworking methods eventually becomes paramount. I am available to help students electronically. This is a style currently 'in vogue' at my university, espoused by my professors. Students can really benefit from the focused attention it can provide.

A Little Bit About Me...

I worked with students from the age of eight to eighteen. Each age group provided its own set of challenges and opportunities to strengthen my experience as a tutor. I worked with children in small groups or one-on-one, based on the child's learning style. I encouraged the children to set their academic goals high and use the support from their peers to help them achieve their goals. I have no one set teaching style, I get to know each student's learning style so that they can benefit the most from the tutoring session. Through patience, respect and dedication, I work with students so that they can achieve their goals.

I bring my strong desire to learn into the sessions to show each child there can be a joy in learning and discovery. I am motivated to find a child’s individual learning style and interests then apply these to the teaching material. As I believe this is a proven method of learning. I believe that patience, by both the instructor and student, is an essential part of learning as development follows a step-wise model. I love working with children, to watch the flash of pride at discovering or learning a new skill makes the future seem much brighter.

All students can learn, but in different ways. I, for one, learn best by watching how something is done. I can read about it, or hear a lecture about it, but seeing it helps me understand the subject. This type of teaching would be done with movies, drawing or acting out the situation. In my teaching, I try to use all methods available to me to help the students learn and to use their creativity. I especially try to get students to work in groups and to share their work with each other. I find that pier groups provide the best help in understanding the subject matter. The classroom should be a learning place of activities and fun.
