Hi there, Using my background as a professional actor I encourage my students to read aloud and use their imaginations to bring reading material to life.Whether it's an instruction manual or a short story. I teach in both a traditional style where we sit down and go slowly through material and in a more 'theatrical-dramatic' style where we get on our feet and get more physical with the words. The choice of one or the other depends on the students needs, desires and comfort level. In either... Read more

Hi everyone, my background in tutoring stems from work I did with the LA Youth crisis center where I volunteered tutoring the group of teens that were living there. The structure there had a bit of a classroom feel with an effort to understand each students needs. My personal style is to have some structured lessons but maintain a very student centered approach to make sure they are getting the information and the help required. I have a bachelor's degree from UC Davis in engineering and took... Read more

I studied elementary education in college, and part of my classwork meant being in local elementary schools working directly with teachers and students. I was trained by the teachers in ways to effectively help teach the students, and I then applied those lessons directly to the kids in the classroom. In the summers I worked as a summer camp director, where, in addition to tutoring, I dealt with campers' personal problems, from homesickness to teasing to bed wetting. Other responsibilities...

You're looking for a tutor because you need personalized attention, not another by-the-book description of how people learn. I can provide unique learning systems, not the same old same old. [As an example, here's one for free: when proofreading your own writing, always do so aloud; imagine someone has just handed you your essay and you are on your way to the stage to deliver it word for word to an audience -- as you read it for the first time. This is a proven system, the proof being the e... Read more

Hello! During the last 10 years of teaching guitar, and going to school for music, I've learned that no student will be the same. So naturally, one single teaching method should not be used for every student. I find myself to be a grounded, personal sort of teacher, making sure that the knowledge I possess is taught around the personality, speed, and interests of the student. Tutors should always be willing to "be liquid" and flow with the student's vocalization of what he or she may want to... Read more
