Earth Science Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Wilmington, CA

I believe that all learners are capable of high achievement if they receive appropriate support, and with a recent Master's Degree in Education, I am well-versed in current best practices. I have a student-centered approach that involves assessing student needs, interests, and learning style and developing learning activities and approaches to assigned material based on this information. I believe that learning should be fun and lifelong learners are made when students enjoy learning. Though I am very focused on using tutoring time productively, I also find ways of making learning fun and meaningful. I have always been passionate about education and while still in school, I worked with America Reads, with a youth music program, as a private tutor, and as a creative writing TA. After graduating summa cum laude with a BA in English, I earned an MA in Education and a Teaching Credential. I

I prefer one on one tutoring so I can adjust how I tutor to each students needs, but I have also done group tutoring before. All in all, I personally want to work in whatever environment will help the student learn most effectively. Tutored many students during high school and I am currently a 1st year Chemical Engineering student at University of California, Berkeley. In high school, I tutored AP Chemistry, many levels of math, and many other science courses often. I also worked with younger students in middle school on many of the general subjects.

Worked at BriteMinds Learning Center and Kumon Learning Center as a teacher for 2 years total. At BriteMinds, I tutored all subjects and all ages, but my strength is as a math and science teacher. Also have been private tutoring for 3 years. Currently a Chemical Engineering student. I attended UC Berkeley for a year before leaving due to increased tuition costs. I am currently attending El Camino College and am transferring in Fall of 2014. I try to match my teaching style to the learning style of the student.

Experienced: Lecturing Geological sciences (4 years) and geology consulting for over 15 years. I have been a geology and earth sciences instructor since 2008. My part time work in the higher education has begun as a teacher associate during my graduate study at CSULB, while working full time as a professional geologist for the AECOM environmental corporation, and continues until now as a geology instructor. During sixteen years of diversified experience in geological and environmental consulting, I obtained crucial practical knowledge and skills in science and filed safety. Previous consulting work provided me with wide range of examples to use in my lectures. Several years of experience in education, gave me a great experience in presenting lectures as well as instructing laboratories.

While attending University of Phoenix to obtain my Master's in Education and Curriculum and Instruction, I have tutored students in both Los Angeles Unified School District and Orange County Unified School District in Language Arts, English and Math for the last five years. I have enjoyed the process of teaching and being a catylyst to helping students learn. The exchange of ideas and understanding which comes to the students in time is very rewarding. I am a very flexible tutor. I love working with all grade levels and ages of individuals. I have appreciated watching students come to greater understanding and the insight that they can learn. This realization has been extremely rewarding and fulfilling for me as a traveling tutor. It has provided enormous validation that the one -to-one exchange of teaching and learning which exists between tutor and student is highly valid and does

I have been in the education department teaching and tutoring for over a decade now, therefore, I will work with each student and help them to the best of my ability. I enjoy seeing students improve their grades and letting me know they feel more confident with testing and homework. Children are the future pillars of society and the future of tomorrow so what they know should be reinforced today. The only way to contact me is at arr1aga@outlook.com or (424) 361-8497 please or I won't be able to read your messages and get back to you thank you!. Thank You! Teaching Style varies depending your child’s learning style. Not a “one size” fits all idea. I adapt to them and that way can best see improvement.

I enjoy tutoring, both with children and adults. I enjoy being able to take something that people deem as difficult and explain it in a way that they can understand it and apply it like they never did before. I am very patient and friendly and can relate to my students. I am also good at having them relate to the subject, thereby showing them the importance of what they are learning as it pertains to them. I enjoy watching their faces light up as they not only start to understand the material, but gain confidence that they can do more. All of my students have commented that they wish their teachers could have explained concepts the way I have and that they enjoyed my sessions. Graduating from engineering at Penn State exposed me to a lot of math. It also exposed me to many tutoring opportunities. I tutored many of my fellow students. I was also tutored in other subjects, thus I also beca

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).

I taught physical geography for five years. Basically identical to earth science with a bit stronger emphasis on maps. I can help you with all your geology, soils, weather/climate, biomes, etc. needs. I have five years teaching geography at the community college level. I mostly taught physical geography (more like earth science), but also taught some human geography as well. I have had multiple short term experiences in the field that I believe make my teaching of geography, biology, and earth science more real and not abstract. As a teacher I always used technology and field trips whenever possible. I like to bring the material "down to earth" by using examples and making comparisons between the material being taught and what the student is familiar with in the own immediate world. When teaching geography and earth science I use many examples of places with the students home regio
