Zelda
Trained teacher/tutor. Worked in field 20+ years
- $40 / h
- Long Beach , California ( 90805 )
- 20 miles
I am an educator by choice. Those who can do teach! Teaching is a special skill that allows me to help a young person expand their horizon. It is not merely setting one up for regurgitation of material, but internalizing the learning experience to make it personal, interesting, and a basis for growth and recall when necessary. I have seen too many students with assignments consisting of tens of problems to solve, but have received no formal instruction to help them obtain the answers. T... Read more

After getting my biology degree I found that I wasn't sure what I wanted to do in biology. However, one thing was certain, I liked to explain and teach. I had played volleyball for some time, so I began by coaching volleyball and eventually went back to school for my masters in science education. I've been coaching volleyball for many years, and my most recent adventure was as a classroom teacher at a private school in Las Vegas. The classroom was great, except that I found that I p...

Experienced, Patient, and Thorough Chemistry Tutor

Recently, I took a brief hiatus from tutoring to complete coursework toward a teaching credential. I earned a 4.0 GPA in my core curriculum courses, and learned a lot about how to tailor instruction to the needs of individual students. However, I have decided to continue to work as a tutor, because of the potential to assist students in goal achievement despite personal challenges. I have seen up close how much K-12 students need positive role models and encouragement, as well as how they of... Read more
