GED Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in San Marcos, CA

I have taught all core subjects plus art history for over 20 years using various state mandated materials and supplementals I purchased through special ed catalogs. Student outcomes were best with the supplementals due to limited attention span and high interest-low level materials. I use various methods to determine mastery- I create my own written or verbal assessments, writing assignments and have students maintain learning journals. I have a background in educational psychology which is useful in dealing with students with behavioral issues. I work through positive behavior supports, humor and style to motivate the student to understand the need to learn the core subject matter in order to proceed through high school. I am excellent at reading the needs of the student and creating lessons that are relevant, interesting and fun.

I have experience teaching and tutoring at various levels and locations, including several countries. Am flexible as to learning materials and methods depending on your time, availability, budget and resources. My main concern is how YOU can learn and retain better. Each student must understand (before integrating) their own strengths and weaknesses into their study skills and become a systematic achiever. I will assist and teach you how to empower yourself in the chosen topics. You will gain confidence in what you know (where you can excel), who you are (what drives you), what you really want (what profession/path/trade inspires you), and how to get where you want to be by creating and implementing a step to step plan to your goal(s)/success.

When tutoring, I strive to make lessons engaging, effective and enjoyable. Specifically, I tailor lessons according to an individual student's needs and involve students in a dialogue by asking questions that provoke thought, conversation, and perhaps humor. Because facts and figures are easily looked up in the information age, I place particular emphasis on thinking and on "learning how to learn". My teaching goals for any student are threefold: 1. learn the material (well!) 2. pass the test/subject (with a comfortable margin!), and 3. enjoy it (most challenging with math!). I love learning and teaching alike. My first teaching experience was in high school when I helped teach inner city children how to swim. Following high school, I earned a bachelor's degree in genetics at UC Berkeley, during which time I worked as a teacher's assistant for a genetics professor. While in medical

I have recently completed my MBA at national University. I currently teach high school part time at a alternative high school. This recent experience provided me with opportunity to work with students in a one-on-one basis as well as familiarize myself with every core class offered in the high school program. I feel I can comfortably teach French as I studied French in Montreal when I lived there. I speak the language fluently. I also feel I can teach k-12 Science classes, specifically Biology and Earth Science. I have a Master's Degree in Business and am comfortable in any area of instruction in business. I have also owned and managed several businesses and have real world experience to share as examples. I feel I learn as much as I teach. I value every student that I have the opportunity to work with. I have learned some students just need to overcoming their dislike of a subject.

Personally, I prefer hands on - lab style workshops - than endless lecturing and note taking. I like to grasp the student's maturity level and aptitude and go from there. All students need individualized attention, but it is also important to have team building skills inherent in the coursework so they learn to both help themselves and others. The first thing is to teach the love of learning, the second is 'how to learn,' and the third thing is the motivation to develop mastery. Most students do not learn how to study, learn how to learn, and if their parents are not educated, they usually never learn these skills. Straight out of college, I began substitute teaching and then tutoring individuals. I specialized in English, reading skills, history, psychology, and counseling. Now, I'm a computer tutor, a technical writer on contract, and gone through countless hours on training for these

Ever since I was in the 5th grade I have known I wanted to teach. I spent my undergraduate career building a foundation of knowledge for this goal and got involved in tutoring a variety of students. I even taught a class of girls at the local juvenile prison. I earned my BA and went straight to my M.Ed, building even more on my already strong foundation. I've worked with all kinds of students at all ability levels and ages. During my time at UMCP I even worked at a childhood development center with kids from infancy up to age 12. I have very strong grammar and writing skills, as English and Writing were my major and minor in my undergraduate and have continued to be important focal points in my every day life. Both of my degrees, the experience I have gained in all of my placements, and the training I have received thus far have all joined together to continue my desire to teach. My

Most difficult subjects are so because of apprehensions or stigmas one might form throughout his/her experiences. I make learning fun and can break down mental barriers one might have by relating the abstract material to concrete real-world examples. I love teaching others and helping them excel at difficult subjects such as mathematics, chemistry and physics. With my broad background I can relate to almost any individual and find the right approach to teaching difficult subjects in a manner he/she will understand.
