The studies have proven that most of what we retain through learning- is by "doing" or engaging in the process on a multitude of levels. If you are looking for a tutor that is going to be hands-on, fun and dynamic, I can provide lessons that will take you or your child into that next level of comprehension. When it comes to creating a personalized structure and success plan, I can help you achieve results that will keep them focused, and more importantly- motivated.

However, the long term goal is to stimulate an intrinsic motivation that will maintain a healthy desire to continue the learning process on their own. I strongly believe we can achieve that together.

I have 15 years of teaching experience that has been centered around the importance of student-centered learning. This approach has enabled me to create stimulating lesson plans and curriculum that uses the creative process along with essential critical thinking skills. With a M.Ed in cross-cultural teaching, I have an incredible wealth of experience when it comes to assessing the challenges that students face in the classroom. Let's help our students maintain a thirst for learning and a drive that will help them achieve their dreams.

Approved Subjects

ADHD

ADHD

After graduating from UCSC I worked with developmentally disadvantaged adults for one year- assisting in specific life skills (anywhere from simple tasks like balancing a checkbook to study skills). In addition, I have worked closely to create ILP's (Individualized Learning Plans) with Resource and Special Ed teachers to create solid plans of action for ADD/ADHD students.
ESL/ESOL

ESL/ESOL

Included in my certification is the CLAD (cross cultural and language learning pathway), which enables us the ability to reach English Language Learners in the classroom. I have taught almost all levels of ELL students within my classrooms for the last five years.
Proofreading

Proofreading

I have extensive experience with editing and revising essays as a veteran high school Social Science Teacher.
Public Speaking

Public Speaking

One of the modules I teach regularly within my classroom is speech and debate. My Social Science students must always be engaging their abilities to get up and speak in front of a group of people. This is something that is stressed and encouraged throughout the entire school from start to finish. At virtually every year, students engage in a class-wide project that consists of rigorous research and culminates in a dynamic presentation. We regularly review methods, practice and execution for successful speech and debate. Furthermore, we review and provide constructive criticism for further review.
