I worked a child with their study skills, I helped bring their grade from D's to A's and B's. I helped the student with English, Math, and with the child staying on task and making the work fun to learn. We made up games and made stories that helped make the child memorize and enjoy to learn the boring stuff

More About This Tutor...

I earned my Bachelors of Fine Arts in 2003 and I have taught creative writing, theatre, playwriting, and acting since then. In 2005, I gained my substitute teacher credential and have taught all around Sacramento, substituting for teachers in all subjects. I also write plays and poems. I have always had an interest and talent for teaching kids. I have taught kids from one on one, all the way to audiences of 300. I have also worked as a nanny for 10 years, so I know what kids are into, what they like, and how to get them to respond.
I believe that kids learn better when they are enjoying themselves and sometimes even having fun! I try to make the things they are learning interesting and entertaining. If a child does not want to learn, they won't, by adding fun into the equation, you have created the desire to learn in that child. I am very patient and easy-going, but I also know whe ... read more

For 13 years, I have been teaching at Merryhill Schools at the 4th, 5th, and 4th/5th grade levels. As the designated Lead Teacher for 5 years, I was responsible for orientation and supervision of new teachers. In addition, I have privately tutored students in grades 3-7, with a main emphasis on Math. I have high expectations for my students, yet I have even higher standards of expectation from myself. I am well organized and excellent at detail. My classroom was recognized as the “model” classroom demonstrating the high standards of Nobel Learning Communities by the WASC Accreditation Team. I, personally, composed and established our “Expected School-Wide Learning Results” for WASC Accreditation for critical thinkers, effective communicators, life-long learners, and good citizens.

A Little Bit About Me...

I come from a family of teachers and, like my parents, I enjoy helping others and reaching the end goal of aiding a student in attaining their own aspirations both long and short term. I understand the difficulties and frustrations that often accompany learning, however I believe that with the right positive reinforcements all students can overcome any hurdle and achieve academic success. In addition, these academic success are the kindling to creating a growing fire of self-motivation which can last a lifetime. I want to help all students in anyway possible to find the academic switch that inspires them to continue to learn and better themselves.

A Little Bit About Me...

My first visit is just an assessment of where the student began to get lost regardless of the age or level. More often that not, they have to memorize their fractions to decimal to percentage conversion from 1/2 to 1/12. Given this underlying knowledge allows me to focus on the subject at hand. I usually recommend purchasing a Spark Notes or something similar for the subject as a reference guide. I use examples from the book to review, and assist in homework. I do not do the homework for them, however, do ask how they will approach it before diving in. I add tips and tricks and different ways to approaching the problem. I also assist in anxiety control, study and organization habits.
I started tutoring classmates in seventh grade and tutored friends in college in Trigonometry. I have earned two BS degrees in Landscape Architecture and Computer Science with a minor in Math. this div ... read more
