In learning you will teach, and in teaching you will learn.

I have been teaching for over ten years. It is not just a job, it is my passion. I love going into my classroom everyday and learning with my students. Together, we conquer the day in our curricular subjects, but also in our social environments all with a growth mindset and determinations. Do we make mistakes along the way? Yes, of course we do, but those are celebrated as learning opportunities, things that we can grow from. Learning and growing together makes every day exciting and fun! 1
I believe that each student learns differently, and that we need to target those learning styles and use them in ways that can help one another.

A Little Bit About Me...

I value the learning styles of each individual student and regardless of subject matter, I emphasize developing study skills to enable the student to apply what he or she learns in every subject/course.
In the last nine years, I have actively addressed the goals and available resources of diverse student populations. During college, I tutored through several organizations, including AVID, Hermanas Intimas, and the Ophelia Project. Later at San Francisco State University, I served as a Teaching Assistant for two semesters and two departments. Prior to these experiences, I have taught English, ESL, and EFL to native and non-native English speakers domestically as well as internationally. English was not my first language, and I use my own experiences with language and culture to communicate successfully with students from all backgrounds. Furthermore, I am very comfortable with onlin ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Prior to full-time teaching, I subbed in Kyrene and Chandler. This helped me to get an edge with different age levels. Then I taught eighth grade English in Chandler for three years. Following this, I took two years off to be with my young children. Next, I taught high school English for seven years to sophomores and seniors in Ahwatukee. I also worked as a Media Specialist. In this position, I taught students from k-12th grade. Lessons focused on literature, research and the writing process/skills. My main areas of focus are the writing process and literature.My passion is clear: writing and literature appreciation that will last a lifetime.
With writing skills, I prefer small groups. This makes it more productive for the learners. I teach with many visual examples and I involve the students in the learning process by helping them to realize their own weaknesses. I believe that ... read more

I am an elementary teacher with many years of teaching and tutoring experience in various settings. I teach all subjects daily and utilize my degree and experience to teach my students their core material. I have researched, designed, and implemented various lessons to meet the needs of my pupils. I have the ability to analyze a child and pinpoint their strengths and weaknesses, then create strategies to help them achieve their goals.
I believe in a hands-on teaching approach that will enable a child to use various learning ways to accomplish their goals. I find it important for a child to be taught in his or her own learning style. It is my job to understand that learning style and then create an educational plan that meets the needs of the child. This teaching style has allowed many of past students to reach their goals and potential. My goal is student achievement and hel ... read more

I have an interest in working with others and helping them to develop their skills. I first began tutoring privately and through extra-curricular organizations. After graduating university, I began teaching. I have taught English for SAT and other college placement exams.

As well, I have a background in excellent performance, with a BA degree in Sociology from McGill, an Ivy League school.
I love working with children and adults, and I have taught all types of students from very different backgrounds. I understand that each person has a different way of learning and understanding.

As an elementary and middle school Language Arts teacher I believe instruction should be tailored to the needs of the individual learner and to the needs of the community. I have had the opportunity to teach in a variety of settings and ability levels. Students confidently excel when they are in a learning environment that is tailored to their abilities and needs. I strive to build a relationship of respect with each student. I am focused, student-centered, and knowledgeable of subject matter. I can create and foster an environment that motivates students and helps them to learn.
I have earned a bachelor of science degree in Elementary Education, a Reading and Literacy minor, and an endorsement in Middle School Education. As a teacher my students succeeded in reading literacy/comprehension, and improved their overall writing skills by several grade levels. After a successful t ... read more

I believe that the possibilities of learning are incredible, especially with understanding the tools of both teaching and learning whether that is textbooks, computers, or something else. It is important to ascertain how a student learns, and adjust to them. I’ve discovered in my teaching of children that it is critical to create a foundation of understanding then build upon it through repetition of the basic ideals while adding to what is already established. Children are amazingly open to new ideas, and take on new challenges with excitement, so it is my job as instructor to guide them in their journey. I also feel that early learning is fundamental to the way individuals learn later in life, so helping children learn how to overcome obstacles becomes a way of expanding their educational possibilities.
Throughout my higher educational career, I’ve been driven to learn as much ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I am a graduate student at ASU studying Education Administration. I have experience working with students of all ages 5-17. I currently work in a middle school and spend my weekends teaching life skills to troubled youth. I have taught for over 6 years and I plan to continue teaching for as long as I can. I enjoy working with children and sharing my passion for learning. I participate in ongoing professional development to be a better educator and I am always for looking for new ways of teaching children.
My teaching style is very hands-on, exploratory and structured. I expect my students to work hard, stay focused, and give effort. I can work with any skill level of student and I motivated to try different techniques to ensure they not only learn the material but also apply it. I believe all children can learn, but it is up to me to find what works for the individual.
