Online Tutor /Reading/Lang Arts, HS English/History/Science

Responds within a few days

I am a certified reading specialist K-12, a former public and private school teacher, and currently a private tutor. I can provide 1:1 online academic support for elementary students in the areas of reading comprehension, writing, spelling, grammar, vocabulary, and executive functioning skills (organization, following directions, and study skills). Am skilled in assessing learning problems and finding creative ways of helping students overcome them (including learning disabilities and dyslexia). My approach involves motivating students based on their interests. For middle and high school students, I teach students comprehension and study skills (e. g., questioning, skimming, outlining, taking notes, technical vocabulary) that makes it easier for them to understand content area material in English, social studies/history, and science classes. I also work with them on assignments, and provide tips on how to study for tests. I do not provide tutoring in math.

Reviewed by Naoko W. Mar 2021 5/5 stars

I have two daughters, 11 & 9 yo, both working with Bob. My older daughter started with Bob 15 months ago, and younger about eight months ago. They are very different personalities & writing/reading levels. Bob is carefully planning work for the girls & we talked over the phone about the girls' interests & both of our expectations. Bob's strengths are listening to our girls patiently & catching their minds to guide them to write in a fun atmosphere. When my older daughter started working with Bob, she was already strong with reading & moderate level of writing, however, we wanted Bob to work on technical parts of writing to include research, composing, and editing. She has now progressed from a letter to a TV personality to research projects, to discussing classic literature pieces. Our younger one, didn't like writing & was weak at reading. Now her reading skill has accelerated to now being on the 3rd Harry Potter book & enjoys writing when she writes about topics she enjoys everyday.

Spanish Tutor

I am from Colombia and I have lots of experience teaching Spanish to kids and adults. You can give your kids the gift of acquiring a second language and why not now that they can learn easily. Take advantage of your kids window of opportunity to learn Spanish now. I teach your kids with language immersion, an easy and fun way to learn Spanish. There are no translations, your kids connect images with words and learning becomes automatic. They will learn first words and intuitively they will start noticing patterns and then phrases, sentences and finally they will start a conversation. I will get them speaking with native pronunciation. They will surround themselves with the new language and without even realizing they will start to learn.

Tutor

I am 29 years old and was recently laid off from my Project Management role in Commercial Interiors in San Francisco. COVID-19 has hit our industry hard and I am looking to fill my schedule with tutoring and other errand/PA work as I transition out of the industry and into running my own business. Care. com has always been a great platform to find and work for amazing families and I've been using it off and on for more than 10 years now. I've worked for several families as a full-time nanny as well as many others as a part-time tutor. Background: I graduated from SDSU with a BA in Liberal Studies and also completed my TESL/TEFL course for teaching English. I lived and taught English to 4-10 yr olds in Thailand for a year back in 2014 and have since transitioned into the commercial real estate industry working in both property management and project management. Happy to provide references and excited to start working with another family here soon during my career transition.

Tutor For Carlsbad Elementary Aged Children

Hello! I have worked in schools as a teacher's aide. I worked both one-one and with small groups of children to provide needed assistance in their classrooms and also in the designated learning center at the school. As a child, I myself needed additional tutoring because I would get easily distracted as a child. So I understand personally, the need for extra one-one attention and help.
