"I have been in education (specifically in Special Education working with students with autism and/or with students and adults who were struggling readers) for the past 8+ years, and have learned as much about myself as I was able to teach others, if not more. I have found it profoundly rewarding to work with kids and adults of all learning levels and styles, and in various educational settings, including within the Hawai'i State Penal System, and one- or two-on-one situations with students on the Autism Spectrum. I find that I am continuously learning from those I instruct. My educational philosophy is simple: Keep them interested and ...

"My philosophy as a tutor and teacher is to guide, rather than direct, each student's learning and to recognize and adapt to the unique abilities and levels of every student. I believe that every student's needs are different and that the best way for the tutor or teacher to address these diverse needs is to listen to the student. In addition, I think it's important to use the knowledge that students already have to allow them to discover and intuit answers that they didn't know they were capable of producing. This requires enhancing each student's confidence as developing writers and readers. My extensive experience as a tutor and teacher ...

"I'm enamored with all things French. It's my first love and my gateway to everything from literature to linguistics. I'm a believer that true passion for what you teach is essential to being a great tutor. It's sometimes easy for students to forget what learning means to them in an often stressful and frustrating world of standardized tests and and final exams, but a helpful tutor can really make the difference by presenting the material in a way that is simple and clear and by approaching it with methods that meet each student's needs." ...

"I currently work with students from preschool-4th grade and am in my 8th year working in education. I love incorporating various materials and hands-on, fun approaches to learning. If it's clever and fun you will remember! The more the material is connected to daily living the more we invest ourselves and are willing to work for it. I also think a sense of humor is extremely helpful to learning-I will make any student smile which sets an upbeat tone for the session! I look forward to meeting you and making a learning connection! ." ...

"Almost seven years ago, in the highly diverse, academically rich environment of the San Francisco Bay Area, I began my professional tutoring career with one of the national names in test prep. With them I learned the value of working one on one with students to identify how best they learn and help them master their own learning style. I went on to work for another, more individualized company as a lead academic tutor in test prep and multiple subjects. I was recruited by an online tutoring firm to write and perform their ACT prep video series." ...
