A Little Bit About Me...

I taught for twenty five years at the middle school level mostly in a self contained sixth grade classroom. In addition to teaching reading, English, math, science,and social studies, I taught electives is video filming and remedial reading. In my experience as a teacher, I discovered that all students can learn if they are properly motivated. I found that I could best motivate a student if I found what they were interested in, and what grade level they were working at. I also worked for five years as a substitute teacher.
I believe in individualized teaching. In my sixth grade classroom, I individualized instruction wherever possible. In reading I tested my students and placed them in books at their reading level. I had them write reading summaries and corrected their first drafts. In sixth weeks, I retested and in most instances moved students to a higher level. In my ma ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have a two year elementary teacher certificate from Fiji where I taught school for five years before I got a scholarship to study in Hawaii. I noticed a great difference between American students and Polynesian students. Polynesian students are very passive learners and will never dare ask questions in class. The teacher can do pretty much anything he/she wants to do with little or no major challenges. American students on the other hand are full of life and excitement in the classroom and ask all kinds of questions that they could think of. I have learned that I need to be more resourceful, attentive and specific when teaching in an American setting. I had a job on campus during my last two years in college fixing computers and training the professors about how to use education software to teach effectively.
When I came to Hawaii from Fiji to attend college, I was very interes ... read more

Seeing the light bulb go off in my students’ head is a constant reminder of my passion for teaching. I believe that all students are capable of learning and succeeding however some students just need to be taught in an alternate manner. My style of teaching involves a great deal of patience as well as constant reinforcement to ensure proper understanding and recall. I allow my easy going and fun nature to shine through in my teaching style but make sure to keep the proper balance in allowing learning to be an enjoyable but serious endeavor. I believe that education is the key to a successful and fulfilling life and my goal is to instill that believe and capability in all the lives I have the opportunity to touch.
Obtaining my Bachelors and Masters from a prestigious university has provided me with not only a pertinent educational background but also a great appreciation for the ... read more

I am native French speaker and I have been living in Modesto area for 2 years. I am an agronomic engineer and I earned several academic degrees in France (BS and a MS in horticulture/agronomy). The last years, I worked in international environment in France and in California as an agronomist and market analyst. By teaching you French, I will also transmit a bit a French culture. In the past years, I teached young students with French and Mathematics, including my young brothers and sister. I am rigorous, detailed-orientated and well-organized.
With a native speaker, you will quickly improve your French skills. As soon as the immediate objectives of your tutoring lessons will be defined, we will work together to achieve the goals. As I learned English as a second language, I truly believe that it is very important to improve your listening/speaking skills while keeping learn ... read more

I come from a family with a rich history in teaching. I have several cousins, aunts and great aunts who work and have worked as teachers in the State of California. Like them, it is my dream and goal to make a positive difference in the lives of the students I teach and tutor. I have achieved this in my teaching experience by providing a welcoming and accepting educational environment where students are actively involved in the learning process. Certain theorists have helped me gain a broad understanding of the learning experience, which has helped me develop my teaching style. Two theories who have influenced my teaching style are Vygotsky's theory in social cognition and Piaget’s theory of mental development. These two theories have influenced my approach to teaching and have helped me to understand the learning process and my student's potential.

I believe that students can reach their potential if they are given the tools that they need. My job is to be the toolbox for them. As a special education teacher, I adapt my teaching style to meet the needs of the students. I believe that a child should be given a vast amount of positive reinforcement and always be spoken to and taught with respect. I also believe children need boundaries set that will consistently be reinforced. Our job is to teach them those boundaries but to do so with compassion. It truly makes my day, when I see a student that finally "gets" what we are discussing or learning. Teaching is a great joy for me.

I believe children need to feel success in the classroom. Making a mistake is not necessarily bad. Sometimes making a ton of mistakes is the route to understanding. Repetition is necessary to building strong skills. I try to create a positive environment for learning, stress free. I'm an upbeat individual who's highly motivated to working with students of all ages.

As a life longer, I have searched out projects that not only allow me to draw upon my current experiences while at the same time pushing and expanding my knowledge. Doing this has allowed me to tackle everything form the very basic of projects not only in computer technology but also in general labor fields. This has lead me to take on projects such as an Arcade System while a student at Heald college.
I love helping people to grow their understanding and reach their full potential. Not being one to stick stricly to the book, I have often employed many hands on and lecture based training aids. The only way for a person to truly learn is from their mistakes, as such, I take care to exercise patience and understanding.

I tend to work with the students to help them decipher the answer to a question, rather than give the answer directly. I believe that examples and samples of problems help students understand the problem. And I want to be a resource, not a crutch, to helping students achieve success. I am strong proponent of education and have spent considerable hours in the classroom observing and assisting with various lessons. I have developed great rapport with the students at my son's school and really do enjoy spending time on campus with the kids.
I have worked for a software company training customers, clients and employees on the applications. I have also participated in Junior Achievement and have been very active in my son's school and the community. I am on 5 executive boards, ranging from PTA to a library foundation, and I also chair our annual Halloween festival at school. I ha ... read more

Prior to receiving my degree from University of California, Davis, I worked in the classroom as a teacher’s assistant for two Professors at San Joaquin Delta College in Stockton, California. As a professor’s assistant, I had the opportunity to tutor students, grade assignments, and organize material for lectures and labs. I held tutorial sessions to clarify information for students who were in need of extra help with the class material. Being a tutor for math, science, and study skills required me to have patience and great communication in order to relate the information effectively. Also, I teach the fundamentals of basketball to children, ages 3-14, at the community centers and coach women’s varsity basketball at Bear Creek High School in Stockton, California. My experiences helped me motivate children to reach their highest potential so that they will have confidence to succeed in ... read more

I believe in "Assertive Discipline". This style uses lots of verbal praise, rewards and incentives. It keeps learning on a positive, moving forward track. This style of teaching is never negative. It encourages learning through engaging, age-appropriate, research-based, fun activities. It starts by assessing each child to determine the student's strengths and weaknesses. Then the appropriate materials are gathered to address each area of need. Tests, charts, diagrams, folders, manipulatives, and many other electronic learning tools are used to track progress and build confidence in each student. All children can learn if they are properly motivated, diagnosed, and given the appropriate learning materials.
I have over twenty years of experience teaching reading. I completed all of the Houghton/Mifflin Language Arts training sessions that taught California teachers how to be expert L ... read more
