We are a team of experienced teachers and tutors each specializing in our own subject strengths. We provide excellent customer service, possibly immediate or same day for homework help or project completion. Online tutoring is also available with a shared online whiteboard for step-by-step problem solving. We strive to get to the root of the problem be it a test-taking challenge or a problem with foundational concepts. Not very fond of your teacher? Unfortunately, this is often the case. We follow your own pace of learning to achieve results. We love the moment when a student finally understands a topic and starts building self-confidence. We can then use this to change the way a student thinks about a subject resulting in continual improvement and achievement.

Accomplished reporter/writer, Los Angeles Daily News. Teacher's Aide, Los Angeles Unified School District. Bachelor of Arts, Journalism, CSUN. Over the years I gained a wealth of experience and training to work with professionals in journalism and in education. The two are related, because they are a part of communication, to work with people and to help someone get an education. My teaching style encourages a person to ask questions, to think independently, to challenge themselves, to use language they can understand, and my style is strict, but flexible.

I'm a graduate of UCLA Engineering with a passion for explaining how the physical world works through math and physics along with 14 years of tutoring experience in those subjects, test prep, and mentorship programs. The teaching strategy I believe in emphasizes subject fundamentals, a powerful and necessary tool for higher problem solving. This strategy has proven very effective regardless of the student's educational background or mental ability. Besides being knowledgeable, I am motivating, caring, and patient in guiding your student to academic success! EXECUTIVE FUNCTIONING: Executive Functioning is a separate realm that tutoring can assist in. It deals with cognitive processes including organization, time management, and study skills. Much of the difficulty students face in academic subjects can be attributed to the lack of executive functioning. They either cannot keep up

All levels K-University level. My teaching style is eclectic.

I have worked with the LAUSD district, at Granada Hills Elementary School, as an Instructional AID. This position required me to work with students hands on, either in groups or one-on-one. I helped students who were either falling behind on subjects or were having trouble finishing assignments. I also worked with groups of students helping them improve writing composition or comprehension skills. I also had students who were new to the country,with little English. I sat down with them an hour each day during school, working to improve their reading and writing skills. I have also work as an ELA tutor with NCLB Learning With Laptops. This is a program that works with LAUSD, providing in-home tutoring for students who are low-income and need extra help outside of school. We use tablets to do activities and practice various skills. During the first session we tested students based on the

i will explain till student understands the topic. i have experience teaching student. i love to help students. Personally, I experienced many great moments while teaching. These were days when I ended so happy and enthusiastic that I knew I had selected the right profession. On the other hand, I had days where I definitely questioned teaching as a career. These were days where the students seemed uninterested, too talkative, or even worse a blow up occurred and nothing got accomplished. Thankfully the average combined with the positive days outshine my negative days.

I always find out what the student needs are and then plan instruction to meet them. I break down goals into smaller objectives and make sure that the student/s know what they are. I give a lot of feedback so that the students know how they are doing and how they can improve. I am very patient, caring, and dedicated to the success of my students. I have taught grades K-9 in regular and special education, and for an independent study program. I began as a substitute teacher in Pasadena. Then I moved to the San Fernando valley where I taught English at a private school and Special ed. students at Los Angeles Unified School District. After that, I taught for an independent study charter school and now I'm substitute teaching.

I have always had an interest in tutoring, starting in Elementary school where I would leave during recess in the fourth and fifth grade to spend time in my past Kindergarten teacher's classroom. There I would read to students, reinforce the teachings lead by the teacher, and serve as a role model. During my middle school summers I would return to that classroom to provide aid for the summer school kindergarteners before they were able to enter the first grade. Upon entry into high school, I joined Project Understanding, a tutoring volunteer organization to serve children from low-income families who were falling behind in a classroom setting and needed some extra time and a different perspective to learn the material expected of them. Once I graduated High School tutoring took a back seat to my studies, where I pursued and earned two degrees in four years with honors. Since
