My teaching style is usually a one-on-one approach beginning with material that is proven to be relatively easier for the student so that that we can establish an enjoyable,interactive approach. We will progress to the level that will take more "thinking" on the student's part. Challenges are also necessary. I have a quiet manner and recognize the importance of the student knowing what is being asked of him/her. My goal is to enhance "independent" thinking in my students. I understand the importance of each individual student's strengths and weaknesses and help the student to thrive on their strengths and continue to improve their weaknesseses. My goal is for all children to reach their potential.I love children, I love teaching!!!!!
I am a retired school teacher that has been tutoring all elementary grade students, as well as intermediate students. I have a great deal of teach ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I am highly qualified to tutor in the areas of English/reading/writing. I currently volunteer at my son's school and assist children with assignments, I have created well written manuals and marketing materials for local businesses and have also written brief articles for the Herald newspaper. English has always come naturally to me and I've found writing to be a fun outlet for all of my energy and would love an opportunity to share my education and teach others.
I am an outgoing, positive individual and this style comes across clearly when I work with children. I have a gift when it comes to making learning fun and rewarding. Much of a person's self esteem is derived from their accomplishments, therefore it is important to me that the children that I work with learn "how" to do the work, rather than someone giving up on teaching and doing it for them. I am very patient. If I have ... read more

I would like to continue to develop my teaching skills while creating a challenging and fun learning environment for students. Currently, I am working towards a Graduate Degree in Geography and Education. I have extensive knowledge in areas of social studies as well as writing research papers. While I have over two years tutoring children in K- 5th grade, I welcome the opportunity to work students of all ages and grade levels.

I have been tutoring as a volunteer and as a job for a combined 7 years now. I have worked in both one on one tutoring with a dyslexic student, tutoring in specialized topics, and group peer tutoring. My longest individual tutoring experience has been with Aidan, who is dyslexic and I have been working with for 4 years. We focus on taking the larger, more daunting tasks and breaking them into smaller sections. Because of his unique learning style, I have learned many creative ways to present the information at hand. I have experience tutoring a wide range of subjects such as high school and college level chemistry and biology, math, world and US history as well as English.
My teaching style involves being open and relatable while keeping he conversation related to learning and the subjects of importance. I feel like students respond best when they are in a positive work envi ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I always look for a child’s accomplishments rather than the weaknesses. I look for growth over time from where the child started rather than percentage ranking. I look at the whole child, their home life, their academic background, what interests and intrigue them, how involved they are in the learning process. I work with their strengths and weave them into their weaknesses. I provide positive feedback and acknowledge the work it takes to make the small steps that turn into big leaps. I provide parents with positive and encouraging progress reports as well as ideas to incorporate into daily living that will encourage and reinforce learning; games to play, books to read, personal experiences, not to give up.
Teaching is my life work, it is what completes me. I have worked in different arenas of public education for over twenty years. I have substituted in all grade levels, mentore ... read more

I have been professionally teaching for almost 30 years whether it be swimming to five year olds or flying to heads of aviation organizations. Few things give greater satisfaction than sharing what I have learned with others and watching them grow as they learn. A skilled, dedicated teacher, with a passion for the subject, can get anyone to learn, all the learner needs is a little desire. It is my job as a teacher/mentor to explore and grow that desire. I believe in a relaxed, but disciplined teaching environment of mutual respect between teacher and learner where both can learn from each other.
I have been a professional instructor pilot for 20 years teaching pilots from over 30 different countries in English and Spanish. I have a BS in Zoology, an MA in Information Management, and am working on an MS in Aeronautical Science. I have ten years grammar school, high school (AP) ... read more

Teaching is about relationships, and the bonds that they build that provide trust. I believe that if a student doesn’t trust my intentions and know that I am working towards helping them in a truly genuine manner, they cannot benefit from my instruction. I am also an advocate of mutual respect. Some teachers may believe in authoritarian instruction, but I find it more important to show my respect for my students and then hope that it will be reciprocated. I want my students to learn, and they cannot learn unless they feel safe and appreciated by their instructor.
My first experience instructing young people took place while I was in college, coaching elementary girl’s basketball. This job, which turned out to be amazing and inspiring encouraged me to find a career that would incorporate helping others and furthering my own learning experience. Today, I study secondary education so ... read more

I love sharing knowledge with learners of all ages yet especially children. I am patient,easy going, and love to create that light that goes off in that child when they "get it". I beleive that all children can learn. I also believe that adjustments, modifications, and a variety of approaches are necessary in working with different learners because we all learn differently. I want to help all learners unlock the gifts and talents hidden with to reach their potential to benefit themselves, their families, their community, the world.
Years before I was received my degrees in education, I worked as a volunteer then hired as a teacher in an accredited community based private school in the Bay Area of California.
