"I am a man of education and technical expertise. I treat my students as though they have a mentor, career and college planner. In the field of mathematics, the students get the privilege of working with someone who is comfortable with using traditional, technological, and advanced means to get the job done.
Tutoring Philosophy
1. I want students to not only do math, I want my students to work on mathematics that they can incorporate in real life applications.
2. Tutors should be proactive with their students and vice versa. Tutors are meant to give students the attention they need outside of class. Tutors are not a burden, they are usually the stepping stone needed to build confidence in the field of their specialty.
Prior Teaching and Tutoring Experience:
I have taught for the East Los Angeles Community College's Escalante Program at Nightingale High School and the Garvey School District in Los Angeles County for struggling Algebra and Pre-Algebra Students (6th to 8th Grade students), tutored at Cypress College Math Learning Center for 4 years as a drop-in tutoring center for everything from Algebra to Calculus 2 including Statistics and Finite Mathematics, Pace Academy of Cypress as a tutor for 5th graders to high school seniors for 2 years, Private Tutoring a wide variety of students for 4+ years and working at DL Academy as a 6th graders to high school seniors tutor for the last year. My expertise leads me to help students in a manner that shows students conceptual values above that of procedural values. The Common Core Curriculum was an area of study during my senior year of my undergraduate degree. My studies have also lead me to study a wide variety of textbooks from Pearson to McGraw Hill to help widen my understanding of Mathematics.
Tutoring Face-To-Face:
Most students find this form of tutoring beneficial because they feel that that they are going to get all of the tutors attention during that point in time. I believe this to be true as well, but I will not give out the notes that I write during" less...
