My style is Fun and creative while in a structured approach to learning. Based on needs of individual, several techniques, methods and approaches are used interchangably.
I began Sunday School teaching as a volunteer during my teen years at church. Not realizing that my teacher saw in me what I could never see in myself. Selective mutism, shyness and lack of confidence were my personal barriers. What was a responsibility became a passion later. Today, I've experienced the pleasure to train on all levels and variety of environments. I've tutored Math, Reading Comprehension, Religious Subjects for Biblical Institutions, and tutor those pursuing medical certification.

Success isn't give, it's earned. You can Succeed!

I utilize a variety of instructional techniques to help each diverse learner succeed and excel. I believe the most imperative part of teaching is to facilitate a positive rapport with my students and have clear structure for them to work with.
I have taught Social Studies and Language Arts at the middle school and high school levels in Missouri for three years. I have worked with students that are considered at-risk, ELD, and students with special needs (including Autism, remedial studies, learning disabilities, and emotional disturbance disorders). I hold current and valid teaching credentials in both California and Missouri. I am in the last eight months of my Masters Degree at National University for teaching students with special needs. I also hold a Masters in Education in Best Teaching Practices, and Bachelors of Science in Social Studies Education.

Special Education Teacher With 15 Years of Experience.

15 years of teaching children with special needs has given me a great understand of what your child needs. I have a passion for teaching and love to work with all students, seeing results in growth of self esteem, knowledge and the meeting of their potential. I have 15 years' experience in the special education field. Since I started my career, I have learned the art of communication and the ability to work with students of all ages, parents, and staff in consulting and educational interaction. I have a Master's degree in special education and hold both my clear Level 2 mild/moderate special education credential and my multiple teaching credential, as well as my autism authorization. Over the years I have found that the best learning and the best teaching is done on an individualized basis, and so I have decided to continue my career as a one-on-one tutor.

If you're interested, call me at 209-996-1968. Thank you.

I have spent 2 years assisting elementary school teachers, grades kindergarten/1st/2nd. I was mainly involved in learning activities which consisted of reading, writing, spelling, and object identification. I was also involved in assisting the kids in group activities such as arts and crafts and outside activities. I've also graded students classwork and homework, and participated in story time, in which I read a variety of books to kids while providing mental stimulation as well as verbal entertainment.
My teaching style is patient because I was working with younger kids, providing a demonstration of what I wanted then to do before asking them to do it, if it involves writing or any other type of physical activity. When teaching reading and vocabulary i would sound out the letter or word and then ask the child to do the same, then move on to the next letter or word. After I have ... read more

Education is key to a good life.

My teaching style adapts to the person I teach. I find a way the child it good with and go from there.
As of 2012 I am going to be a Junior in Highschool. I have passed all my classes with a C+ or higher and I am able to teach younger children great. I can relate to the kids having issues with school education because when I was younger it took alot for me to strive but I found that motivation and improved since then.

My comments on tutoring Basic Learning Skills : My mother was a teacher/principle so I was constantly taught a myriad of different learning skills!

GROWING UP I TAUGHT IN HALF-WAY AND GROUP HOMES! MY MOTHER WAS A TEACHER/PRINCIPLE AND I GREW UP LEARNING THE ROPES FIRST-HAND! IN COLLEGE,I MAJORED IN PSCYCHOLOGY AND MINORED IN ENVIROMENTAL SCIENCES. SHORTLY AFTER I WENT TO WORK FOR GANNETT AS A DRIVER/LIASION/TROUBLE-SHOOTER/CLERK/PROOF-READER. I WAS EMPLOYED THERE FOR A QUARTER OF A CENTURY!
AS WELL AS CONVENTIONAL LEARNING TECHNIQUES,I EMPLOY UNIQUE TEACHING METHODS USING MULTI-MEDIA!! IF YOUR CHILD HAS LEARNING DISSABILITES OR DOSEN'T PERFORM AS WELL AS YOU WOULD LIKE IN SCHOOL MY "SPECIAL HELP" MIGHT JUST BE THE CATALYST THAT PUTS YOUR CHILD BACK ON THE RIGHT LEARNING TRACK!!
