UCLA English grad; experience teaching both English and Math

Mine is a creative and lively, interactive teaching style, focusing on playing off of children's interests and strengths. I make it a point to get to know the students I work with -- background, education, hobbies and lifestyle.
I majored in English Literature and Writing at UCLA, with a focus on British Pre-Reformation Classics, as well as Shakespeare's 1st and 2nd portfolios. I also won 1st Place in the university's Westwind Writing Competition, taking home top prize for Non-Fiction entry. I have experience working on the school newspaper, The Daily Bruin, and extensive journalism experience. Finally, I co-founded The Writers' Den, a school-based organization dedicated to teaching English and Writing to inner-city students (Compton, Inglewood especially).

More About This Tutor...

I have earned two teaching credentials and have always been a high acheiver in life and in school. I have taught special education for over eight years and have served the toughest populations the education system has to offer. I analyze my clients needs and deliver effective approaches to solve their learning difficulties and reach them where they are at.
My teaching style is dynamic and interactive. I ask lots of questions to help the learner realize that the answer and the abiltiy to achieve lies within them. I help learners reach that ability that has been covered up by negative teachers and people that have given up on them. All students can learn and achieve but not all teachers can teach. I can teach because I will never give up on a student and I will tap the hidden potential and help the student to believe in themselves.

A Little Bit About Me...

I believe that with proper classroom management and an interesting delivery of lessons, every student has the potential to learn and achieve academic success. I use a number of methods to introduce the concepts to my students, including hands-on activities, use of manipulatives, computer generated presentations, role-playing, textbooks, video, etc. I feel that if I can find the proper modality along with allowing a student to explore on his own, then a student can achieve success in learning. My goal is to build a safe and stimulating learning environment, and to try to make learning interesting and fun during the challenging middle school years.
I am a certificated teacher with a multiple subject credential, presently working as a substitute teacher in Ontario/Montclair school district. I taught 6th grade math/science as a permanent teacher in LAUSD for 4 years. In addition, I hav ... read more

My experience at the community college and public school classroom includes a wide range of diverse teaching experiences from high achieving Japanese to Hispanic low performing students seventh graders I have excelled at teaching all levels of ethnically, academically and physically diverse students. The procedure I follow in tutoring is to first attack is to find out where any understanding difficulty lies. Then, I write the rules out. Next I work 2-3 problems applying the rules as we proceed step by step. Under my tutledge, I have the student work 2-3 problems on their own. When the student can, at least, master the basic problems, then we move on to the next area of difficulty. Every one can succeed at some level.

I think it's a great feeling when you actually know you've taught something to a child and you can tell they will remember it for life. I still remember my friend's mom teaching me tricks to remember the multiplication tables, and I would like to be able to impact someone's life in the same way. I'm a fun person and I like to do things a little outside of the box. I would try to make the tutoring sessions something that the children would look forward to. I look forward to the challenge of making a difference.
To earn a Bachelor of Arts degree from the University Of Notre Dame, I had to be a Renaissance class-taker. Math, Science, and foreign language were all required for anyone to graduate. My major was Film, Television, and Theater, but many Literature and History classes were also all required. Writing is my strength, as I wrote and directed the school's biggest comedy show and ... read more

II have worked as a tutor with students of all ages and backgrounds. I have tutored for 10 years in math and English. I have tutored elementary, middle school, high school, and college students math, and I taught English as a second language in South Korea. Tutoring and teaching is my passion. I offer the student my educational and professional experience in math, accounting, and English. My professional experience as an accountant is helpful to primarily to older students because it enables the students to relate and see that what they are studying is important, and does apply to the real world.

A Little Bit About Me...

I love working with students of all ages and never tire of encouraging all students to work beyond their potential and always challenge themselves. I am available to assist people of all ages to reach their personal goals. Children learn best in a safe and comfortable atmosphere, however, adult non-readers need a safe haven in order to work to their highest potentials, also. I am an extremely patient and upbeat personality, and never hesitate to answer all questions from any age students. I love to share the challenges with my students and look up information together on the computer and/or in their textbooks.
Since 1997, I have worked in the education field. First, I was an off- track teacher, working for the City of Colton. I worked as an ROP teacher in the business and computer areas. In 2001, I worked as an English teacher at Colton High School until 2004. While attending Azu ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have worked in various tutoring facilities. I worked at a nearby Kumon where I helped students with reading and writing. I was in charge of 10-15 students, and I helped them complete their assignment lesson packets. I was a private tutor for over a year. I would meet with each student two times a week. I would help each student with homework, classwork, lessons, and projects. I was recently working at an after school program called Think Together as a teacher's assistant. I helped the teacher manage a thirty student class room. I was in charge of tutoring students who were in danger of falling behind. I have had plenty of experience working with students and I feel confident in the skills I have gained.
I have been working with children for over two years and I enjoy it tremendously. I believe I possess the skills and characteristics necessary for providing the best tutoring expe ... read more
