UCLA English grad; experience teaching both English and Math

Mine is a creative and lively, interactive teaching style, focusing on playing off of children's interests and strengths. I make it a point to get to know the students I work with -- background, education, hobbies and lifestyle.
I majored in English Literature and Writing at UCLA, with a focus on British Pre-Reformation Classics, as well as Shakespeare's 1st and 2nd portfolios. I also won 1st Place in the university's Westwind Writing Competition, taking home top prize for Non-Fiction entry. I have experience working on the school newspaper, The Daily Bruin, and extensive journalism experience. Finally, I co-founded The Writers' Den, a school-based organization dedicated to teaching English and Writing to inner-city students (Compton, Inglewood especially).

More About This Tutor...

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

More About This Tutor...

I have been working with children for over two years and I enjoy it tremendously. I believe I possess the skills and characteristics necessary for providing the best tutoring experience. As a tutor I would strive to make a difference in all of my student's lives. I would go out of my way to make sure each student fully understands each lesson. My goal would be to help each student understand the material and feel confident with it.
I have worked in various tutoring facilities. I worked at a nearby Kumon where I helped students with reading and writing. I was in charge of 10-15 students, and I helped them complete their assignment lesson packets. I was a private tutor for over a year. I would meet with each student two times a week. I would help each student with homework, classwork, lessons, and projects. I was recently working at an after school program called Think Together as a ... read more

I encourage and challenge my students. Whether they are studying algebra or learning English, I always provide them easy to remember tips, challenging lessons, and carefully thought out practice questions. When conducting a lesson, I always inform the students of the rules and steps to solve the problem; I try to do this in the most comedic and creative way possible, so the students remembers. Then I go through each problem and/or question with the student a couple of times, then I let the student try a few for themselves. I encourage the students to explore and ask and to practice and challenge themselves. I have tutored for about ten years and find it a remarkably rewarding experience.
II have worked as a tutor with students of all ages and backgrounds. I have tutored for 10 years in math and English. I have tutored elementary, middle school, high school, and college students mat ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I think it's a great feeling when you actually know you've taught something to a child and you can tell they will remember it for life. I still remember my friend's mom teaching me tricks to remember the multiplication tables, and I would like to be able to impact someone's life in the same way. I'm a fun person and I like to do things a little outside of the box. I would try to make the tutoring sessions something that the children would look forward to. I look forward to the challenge of making a difference.
To earn a Bachelor of Arts degree from the University Of Notre Dame, I had to be a Renaissance class-taker. Math, Science, and foreign language were all required for anyone to graduate. My major was Film, Television, and Theater, but many Literature and History classes were also all required. Writing is my strength, as I wrote and directed the school's biggest comedy show and ... read more

I tutored philosophy students for a year while in college. I earned a master's degree in early childhood education and taught second grade for two years. I also was a substitute teacher for grades K-8th. Currently, I am a motivational speaker and a mentor through United We Mentor.
My teaching style involves a positive approach. I believe students learn best in an environment that is both positive and challenging. Positive feedback is essential because students are encouraged to take risks and solve problems. A challenging classroom teaches critical thinking skills that are necessary for the global market.

Here is Some Good Information About Florida Writes Tutoring

The Florida Writing Assessment was implemented in grades 4, 8, and 10 as required by a law passed by the 1990 legislature. Does your student need a tutor? Beginning in 2010, each essay was scored by one rater. In previous years, two raters were used and the scores were averaged. Prior to 2010, a student could have received a half-point score, such as 4.5; whereas since 2010, no half-point scores are possible. Additionally, beginning in 2010, each student within the same grade level was required to write an essay using the same mode of writing (narrative, expository, or persuasive).
