Fair, firm and consistent are my mantras of classroom management. In that, I believe that all children deserve a safe, clean, engaging, yet structured environment in which to meet their full potential. I firmly believe that learning is a team affair, and practice the standards of cooperative learning. For the past year-and-a-half, I have worked as a long-term substitute teacher for the Palm Springs Unified School District, acting as the virtual teacher of record in dedicated classrooms on several occasions.

During my undergraduate career, I was a teaching assistant for Physical Science and General Biology for two years. My responsibilities included teaching several lectures, the grading and any extra assistance needed by the students. After graduating, I taught High School chemistry for the Biola STAR program. During this time, I also tutored at a learning center in Fullerton. In 2007, I taught 3 sections of general chemistry lab at CSULB. I then moved to the education department at the Aquarium of the Pacific, and worked with the public there for 4 months before moving into a management position. I have obtained my B.S. in Biochemistry, and am currently pursuing my M.S. in Biology at Loma Linda University. Teaching is one of my passions, and I intend to teach at the college level after obtaining my M.S. My fourth grade teacher sparked my love of science at an early age; she was so excited

Working with children is my passion ,and ensuring their success is my goal.I consider my teaching style to be a demonstrator in which I put an emphasis on demonstration and modeling. Where I guide the student to develop and apply the skills that were demonstrated. I feel that encouraging student participation while adapting their unique learning style will help the student take responsibility for learning what they need help on. A student should be pushed to excel but it is also about teaching the student discipline, and respecting others. Lastly, tutoring is about having fun, creating a exciting experience to the student and creating a memorable teaching environment that ensure success for the student. I have the passion required to help students reach their full academic potential. Teaching is about not only motivating them to learn but to teach them how to learn. My B.S in Accounting

I am a compassionate teacher who promotes an encouraging learning environment so that my client will excel in the subject matter. Not only do I address the weaknesses that the student has in the specific subject, but I provide useful study skills and self-help practices that will enable the student to excel outside of the tutoring environment. All of my students begin to enjoy the learning material and in turn make great progress in their academic work. During my undergradaute education, I began tutoring children aged grade K-12 in math, science and reading. My biology undergraduate degree has provided me with extensive skills in Physics, Chemistry, Math, biology, as well as all basic science material. I have also earned my Master's in Public Health which solidified my writing skills in the process of writing research papers and essays in a broad array of topics. I have tutored students

Working with children is such a joy! I really enjoy being able to observe the moment the "lightbulb" comes on. During the past three years, I have had the privilege of working as a substitute teacher in two different school districts, and have instructed students ranging in level from kindergarten to high-school. My teaching style is a blend of positive praise, firmness and creativity. Whether working one-on one or with a group, I do my best to always present the material using logical, fun and varied methods to ensure my students' understanding. My hope is that they, like myself, will continue on as life-long learners, able to impart their precious knowledge with others. In reality, I have been tutoring almost since I could read or write. The first tutoring job I held was in elementary school. After graduating from elementary school, I did my first two years of secondary educatio

As a United States Peace Corps Volunteer, I worked with local youth in a Fijian village over the course of two years. I created a study groups based on education level and subject matter for the young adults living in the community. I focused lessons on English reading and comprehension, effective writing skills, algebra, calculus, and basic science. Working with youth from another culture and in a foriegn language forced me to gain strong interpersonal skills, innovative ways to tutor students, and the patience to work with students to achieve their academic goals. 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 u

I graduated from the top university in the Philippines with a bachelor's degree in Psychology. My career path was towards medical school so my background includes expertise in biology, chemistry, mathematics and some physics. I am also trained in the social sciences, particularly in psychology. I have knowledge, training, and experience in research as well. Moreover, I have excellent grammar and spelling skills honed by years of studying and speaking English. One thing I discovered about myself recently was that I have a passion for teaching. I love the idea of imparting knowledge and sharing what you have learned to other people, children in particular. There is nothing more rewarding than becoming part of somebody's learning process and intellectual growth. My teaching style involves active involvement from the student, making sure that they're getting the point and learning to app

I very much enjoy teaching. All children can learn provided they are given the proper guidence. Patience, tolerance, and acceptance on the teachers/tutors part is the key to success. The student must simply be willing to learn, excel, and succeed. All children can meet their potential given a good learning environment, encouragement, and established trust that the teacher/tutor is willing to give freely. When I strive (and I will) the student strives. With this: MISSION ACCOMPLISHED! As a scholar of the Biological Sciences I was very much interested in the Plant Sciences, in particular those entailing agriculture. I did well in the supporting course work including all those pertaining to the Biological Sciences (e.g. Biology, Botany, Bacteriology, Mycology, Microbiology, etc.) I have excellent written and verbal communication skills, have published in scientific and technical jou
