I'll Teach your Student to Teach Him or Herself

I hate lecturing! I do! This is why my tutoring style is very interactive. I don't like talking AT a person, I prefer to have a conversation. My goal as a tutor is to make subjects interesting, and also to make sure they stick- so you can do well on exams. I also teach study skills in every session, so ideally you won't have to rely on me forever. I try to give students tools that they can use to teach them how to teach themselves- something they'll have to do if they're considering college.
I have worked as a tutor for 10 years in all subjects, especially focusing on ESL learners. Recently, I have worked in an ESL school (FLS International) with university age students seeking to matriculate into American Universities. Before that, I worked in South Korea teaching English. While employed at these schools, I also work part-time as a tutor- mostly for middle and high school ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I have a passion for "trainng" in my current profession and I have realized that there are many different styles of teaching. Just as there are different teaching styles, there are a multitude of different learning styles. I find it necessary to speak openly and honestly with my trainee's so that I can evaluate the best possible training/teaching approach. I believe that the best teachers are those who recognize the needs of their students and are able to adapt and be flexible so that the student receives the best instruction possible.
As a communications supervisor for a public safety agency, I have very diverse work experience. I also act as a communications training officer and training administrator. Over the past several years (10+), I have trained one on one, numerous employees. In addition, I have conducted small group training sessions for five to twenty subordinates. ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I enjoy working with all children and I am looking forward to putting my experiences into practice. I am motivated, determined, and I strive for excellence; and I believe that one must do something they enjoy doing in order to achieve that excellence. As a tutor, I try my best to place myself in the student's shoe/perspective so that I can provide them with a better method of learning the materials. I also encourage the students rather than give up on them because the best thing a teacher/tutor can do for their student is to provide them with support and care; and let them know that you are there for them throughout the process of their learning. I may be imperfect, but I hope to be a role model to those that need one.

A Little Bit About Me...

As an elementary school teacher over the past 29 years I have taught for the Archdiocese of Los Angeles, LAUSD, and currently for Saugus Union School district. I have taught in grades Kinder-4th grade. There were six years that I chose to substitute teach between 1986-1991 so that I could be home part time to raise my young family.
I believe all children have the capacity to learn. My approach is to provide a nurturing environment using praise and encouragement to motivate students. When a student's confidence increases, they begin to achieve more academic success. With patience, encouragement, and praise, children are able to work to their potential. I make learning fun!

Teaching can be a most wonderful adventure. I believe every child can learn. At times students or overwhelming with new concepts, and they need to be encouraged, and praise until they can accomplish the task at hand. I enjoy seeing the appearence of awareness on a childs face, when they have accomplished a goal, or solved a problem they had difficulty solving. I believe tutoring a child can be a powerful tool, and it can also unleash a potential genius.
As a graduate, I've been very blessed to have received a degree in Business Communication. In college I learned how to become a better educator, and communicate with them on the highest level. Although, I tutor in all of the academic areas, I also enjoy helping my student appreciate the art of becoming a good writer, and thinkers. My students are also encouraged to read for relaxation, and entertainment. Making the education process ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I am firm, fair, and fun. I believe in building upon a student’s strengths and strengthening their weaknesses. I like to teach to the individual student’s learning style. I achieve this by using differentiated instruction, concentrating on the individual’s favorable learning style. I may incorporate manipulatives, music, motion, or visual aids. I believe the student should be active in the learning process and enjoy being engaged with the material to become proud of his/her work and take ownership of the learned material.
I began teaching in a second grade classroom. After receiving my Master’s Degree in Special Education, I taught at an inner city shelter facility. Shortly thereafter, I taught online for a cyber charter school and tutored at Huntington Learning Center.

During college, I worked as a home-school Spanish, Language Arts and History teacher for students ages seven through fourteen. I volunteered in classrooms, tutored, and provided childcare for children with special needs. I studied Spanish and abroad. Upon graduation, I began my teaching career in L.A. where I taught kindergarten. After three years, I decided to teach abroad and moved to a small Chinese city where I taught preschool.

A Little Bit About Me...

As an educator, I have been given the opportunity to teach in various venues and modalities. Through these opportunities I have taught adults, children and teenagers using many techniques and styles. My education and experiences as a military spouse, an adult college student, Girl Scout Troop Leader, teacher and business owner have given me knowledge in various subject matters (i.e., English Language Learners, Language Composition, Mathematics, History, Science, Music, Business Management, and Team Building) that would benefit many levels of learning.
I love teaching students to discover the answers to questions and problems that otherwise eluded them. I am a firm believer in student-centered learning, meaning the students are given the opportunity to research, discover, and progress through various techniques. Providing the appropriate learning environment is essential for a stu ... read more
