As both a native of Chula Vista and a UCSD graduate, I have seen and experienced what it takes in order to grow up from a local teenager to a qualified adult ready to take on the world. I have attained a BA in Music, which actually required an additional understanding of math, physics, and computer science, as well. My tutoring experience includes work with students at both the high school and college levels. At the high school level, I have worked with students individually and in a group setting, whereas my work with college students has been primarily on an individual basis. The subjects I have tutored include Algebra, Geometry, Trigonometry, Pre-Calculus, Calculus, and Computer Science.
Often times, a person who is failing a subject might feel like a lost cause, that no one can help them. However, my belief is that all students are worth helping, that each individual has a righ ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

As a graduate of PLNU, I always new that I wanted the challenge to teach High school. I have always been driven in education, whether is it working with youth in a camp setting or a class room setting. I feel that not everyone works well in a class room and that is okay. I have developed my writing and grammar skills extensively due to my position as a Deputy Sheriff Detention's and Courts. I have tutored many students mostly elementary. I also was called in as a tutor, but to motivate students to do their homework and stay focused. I have tutored in multiple subject areas including, mathematics, science, english, reading, writing and I also have privately coached many sports on the side including basketball, softball, tennis, and soccer.
I love working with all children. Every child, adolescent, and adult have different learning capabilities. I am here to find which suit ... read more

More About This Tutor...

After a career as a highly successful jewelry designer and manufacturer I sold my company and became an English teacher. I have always been interested in literature and journalism and while at university I participated in theater and was managing editor for the school newspaper. I began my teaching career at one of the toughest schools in Los Angeles and after following my science teacher wife to San Diego I have enjoyed several long term substitute positons with AP students at the High School Level. I have taught English now for six years to a full range of diversified students from grades six through twelve.
As a teacher my biggest thrill is helping students reach their goals with clear understanding. Not all students learn the same and so good teachers must have many stategies for diversity in the classroom. With verbal and social skills that elicit trust, I have an ability to ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

As a graduate of the University of Puget Sound, I earned a Bachelor’s Degree in English studies as well as a minor in Biology. I spent a year in college editing the student newspaper, in which I furthered my strong writing and editing skills. During my job at a legal education organization, I wrote and released press releases, managed an online newsletter, and researched and developed position papers. Following that, I achieved my teaching credential. I teach 11th and 12th grade English, inspiring students to become better readers, writers, thinkers and speakers, and prepare them for college. My tutoring, work, and teaching experiences, along with my strong writing and editing experience, have advanced my skills and strengths.
My teaching style is student-centered. This approach is two-fold. I use scaffolds to assist in the discovery process, but encourage students to truly pe ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have a very natural, relaxed teaching style. I nurture self-esteem and success. I believe that children are naturally creative, inquisitive, and avid learners. When they are nurtured, taught, and loving cared for and educated by adults in their lives, they soar to their greatest heights with enriched self esteem and excelling in knowledge of new tasks/skills based on their ability. I have always said that children are like sponges, they will absorb what they are able to comprehend at the time and a teacher must build on their successes. I always look for their “abilities” and then expand on them.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have worked as a student teaching assistant in private Ivy league boarding schools and I have taught in inner city urban setting. I have also had to the opportunity to take graduate chemistry courses both for credit and audit at University of California-San Diego, and San Diego State University and Tennessee State University. These combined experiences gave me a keen insight into chemistry. My most extensive work has been working on my graduate Thesis work where I used more challenging sciences. I also have experience in tutoring History and Humanities.
My teaching style is more socratic. I help students inquire and debate between facts with opposing viewpoints based on asking and answering questions to stimulate critical thinking and to illuminate ideas. This system is not designed to confuse students but to show them a straight way of dealing with axioms therefore not makin ... read more

Based on my experiences, I’ve had to explain and discuss accounting principles, theories, and practices with colleagues, students, professors, executives of companies, as well as their related operational departments. I feel that I am able to explain the subject matter to different types of groups with ease and really enjoy teaching and in turn learning from them. I was a substitute teacher part time while completing my undergraduate degree and have trained and mentored new colleagues and co-workers. I believe that each student posses different learning capabilities (i.e. visual versus audible), thus it is important to first learn how the student is able to comprehend the subject matter and then use applicable teaching methods.
I graduated with a BS in Accounting and Information Technology. After graduating I worked as Staff I and later as Staff II at a mid size public account ... read more
