I have experience teaching French and English at the high school level at a private/Catholic high school in Ventura County. I have held this full-time teaching position for 2 years. Prior to this, I worked at a public high school in Ventura County as both a Sophomore English teacher, and a teacher of English as a Second Language.

As a graduate of Sociology I have gained a lot of knowledge about how society functions. I was interested in this area of study to understand peoples because I have always had compassion for others. I have participated in a 4 unit class where i taught Spanish to 8-11 year old children and it consisted of developing a plan that included songs and dancing to learn Spanish in a fun and animated way. I have done research on homelessness, and had an internship with a non profit that provides social services for those in need. Working closely with this organization has helped me assess peoples needs and use problem solving skills to help individuals in a variety of situations.
I enjoy teaching and working with children and feel that it is important to understand that not all students learn the same way. I feel that my college experience has taught me to discover the ways I learn and und ... read more

As an Ivy League graduate, the son of a professor, and the husband of a professor, I have a deep love of learning and teaching. With a BA in Psychology and an MA in Interdisciplinary Studies, I have been professionally involved in teaching, training, tutoring, and mentoring for more than 25 years.

I loved teaching in the classroom setting and will probably go back to that someday, but I have found a real passion and excitement these last two years working one-on-one with students. I enjoy getting to know students, discovering their strengths and weaknesses and using both to help them become lifetime learners. I feel strongly that students who struggle with reading, spelling and comprehension should receive special help at an early age and that the right methods can give them the skills they need to be successful in the future. I look forward to giving students the opportunity to succeed!
I have a bachelor's degree in Liberal Studies with a science concentration and upon finishing my student teaching immediately took a full time job completing the remainder of the school year (March-June 2005) teaching middle school math. In September of 2005 I began teaching middle school sc ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Having graduated with honors from a top university, the greatest asset I offer comes from my real world teaching experience. During my tenure as a substitute I have taught at all levels, from kindergarten to middle-aged adults, in all subject areas. Even as a young person I was involved with teaching others; I first began as a teacher's aid in high school and later I served as a tutor in college. This led to teaching full-time at the kindergarten level. Last year I worked in a summer camp in Canada and I completed my TESOL training and I was successful in teaching English in Paris France in the fall. Returning to California I continue to teach part time for the Ventura Unified School District.
My training in rhetoric, speech, and debate has taught me the importance of speaking clearly and articulately. This means that I pay close attention to language and I try to bring out that qu ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

As a University of South Florida college of education graduate I have a wealth of experience with teaching both in the classroom and on a one to one basis. I have successfully tutored students in english, reading comprehension, science and social sciences. During my internship I taught all manner of history classes including AP world history and Psychology. In addition I have tutored for 5 years at all age and skill levels.
My teaching style is to show students how to make themselves successful. By motivating my students to do their best every time I can help them exceed expectations and thrive under any situation both academically and socially. Many students focus on what they think they cannot do. What I teach them is to highlight their strengths and improve their weaknesses. I do so with the use of clear directions, constant monitoring, and positive praise. I believe every child ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

My goal as a teacher is to ensure that my students hone in on their individual skills and talents. In doing this, I create an atmosphere that is most conducive to learning. This is done through proper assessment and by challenging students at different levels with supplemental assignments and texts. Likewise, I typically design my classroom so that anyone walking into my room would have an enjoyable learning experience simply by viewing the walls. Sometimes, I have been called unconventional, but I think that within a changing society, it is very important to be able to teach "outside the box."
As I graduated number seven in my class, I was always a go-getter and an overachiever, especially within my field of study. Over the past 15 years, I have managed to earn a BA in Speech, an MA in Communications and over 10 years collective teaching experience at the high school, undergradua ... read more
