I am from Lakewood, California originally. I have been tutoring for about three years now and have done all age levels including middle school to college. I have worked with gifted students, as well as those who have IEPs and am comfortable with students of all levels.

I was in the Merit Scholars program in my high school and the Honors College at CSULA. I am currently obtaining my single subject credential at CSULA and will be also starting my masters program in English Literature in the near future. I am extremely motivated and very much enjoy working with students in writing, literature and grammar.

My style of teaching is an adaptive one, I do not generally come in with a rigid structure but instead a few varying course paths which focuses on the weaknesses the student has in the field. For example, if a student has problem reading and understanding what is happening in the reading we will work on contextual analysis and understanding the reading, as opposed to a student who completely understands the text and wants to focus on more complex ideas. I have done it all from teaching young children how to write a basic essay, reading plays and teaching children how to recite lines, as well as doing higher level college essays with many of my college clients. I am happy and willing to do anything to ensure that my students succeed in their studies.

Very unique tutor, custom teaching technique to the child learning trait.

Jason is more then just a good tutor, he is a great mentor. He spend time to talk to each one of my boys to find out what they like to do and how they prefer to study, ect, so he can understand them and make his tutor session fun, challenge and effective. I was so impressed that he offered his lecture outdoor too. He will do everything to make his students engage in study, .
