As the first in my family to attend college I have experienced adversity, but more importantly I have learned how to overcome my humble beginnings through hard work and determination. I am pursuing my third college degree and currently writing my master's thesis on morality. Working with students to enhance the quality of their work and assist them in mastering learning is something I am very passionate about. I have experienced first-hand what a profound impact education can have on one's life, quality of experiences, and interactions with others.I believe what sets me apart as tutor is my ability to convey complex information in a an engaging and relatable way. I feel it is necessary to make a connection with my students based on trust and mutual respect, in order to ensure that both parties are being understood. I have taken many graduate courses in counseling have learned how to truly listen to others: which is essential for helping students achieve their goals and grow as individuals.While I have been a lifetime learner and posses 13 years of formal education, I am a diverse person who enjoys eclectic interests. My hobbies include: hiking and long distance backpacking, road cycling, baseball (watching and playing), fitness and healthy living as well as cross country motorcycling. I am an animal and music lover who enjoys laughing with his family.I am dedicated to providing quality instruction and looking forward to exhibiting my skill and knowledge for you or your student.

I am very passionate about education and helping young adults close gaps in learning. I have been in Education for over 19 years in Louisiana and Texas serving in a variety of roles including Middle and High School English teacher, Academic and Instructional Coach, Testing Coordinator (Campus and District), and Assistant Principal. Currently, I am completing my Doctorate in Curriculum and Instruction focusing on Literacy at Texas A & M Commerce.My background and experiences have made me the most patient and resilient educator!! I know that I can help anyone learn, and I live to hear the "OHHH" when it clicks for the learner.

Education is an art, not a science. Art must start with high expectations and adaptability for students to learn. Standards, expectations, and positive classroom management play integral parts in this educational journey and can impact students greatly. High standards need to come from the teacher and the students, each pushing each other beyond expectations. Both have a responsibility to push each other to achieve, which leading to success.Preparation from both can take many forms:Creating an engaging curriculum that offers a variety of opportunities for practice and success which could include direct learning, cooperative groups, project-based learning, team teaching, cross-curricular units, portfolio, and self-reflection. Both will increase their knowledge base and will help with not become stagnant. Both should be seeking aid and thoughts from mentors, professors, and people in the community. Committee hours for assistance each other, parent communication, and extracurricular activities involving the whole class or part of it as needed.Researching, then choosing a classroom model that fits teaching style and age appropriateness.Student and professor need to read and search topics for discussions before getting into a class. Each should try to find details that will surprise, surpass, context to prior knowledge to make a subject more interesting to the class. Each topic is discussed should be connected to other topics, both within the class, other classes, and the real world. Challenge each other, leads to all involved reach new heights in their learning. Team learning includes admitting and taking responsibility for mistakes, which creates a safe atmosphere to take risks. We all are capable of going beyond each paradigm to find success. It a dysfunction to our students, when the class exceptions are less because of busy schedules, family life, special needs, hard circumstances, or anything for the outside of academia. Teaching to the individual with everyone challenging that specific student helps to pushes expectations and gains self-esteem as well as academic progress for all.A positive classroom makes it safe and free from barriers to learning. Professors need to model taking risks, so students can see professors working on projects as well. Classroom examples and everyone doing projects from students to professor alike. Everyone should be comfortable taking risks within this safe environment.Education is inevitably a well-thought mental process. This journey is so important to learning and planning is essential. Creating progressive curriculum, and a safe, positive classroom allow the dream of learning to take places all around. "Success is a journey, not a destination." (Sweetland, 2001).

I know that anyone can achieve success academically. We all learn in different ways, and there are plenty of approaches. I dont beleive in teaching or learning in one specific way. Each person has a special way of learning, and it should be nurtured. Texas and National only.

I am a graduate of The University of Houston-Clear Lake. I received my Bachelor of Science in Education. I am also certified to teach ESL. While I tutor a broad range of subjects, I am most passionate about English, Reading, Grammar, Phonics, and Writing. In my experience helping struggling students prepare for Standardized Tests, we always seem to have the most fun. I want each and every child to gain the knowledge they need in order for them to excel to the next level. In my spare time, I enjoy reading, cooking, exercising, and playing with my dog Sebastian. I am looking forward to meeting you!

I am a graduate of The University of Houston - Clear Lake. I received my Bachelor of Arts in History with a Texas State Teaching Certification in Social Studies for grades 7-12. Since graduation, I have taught 9th grade World Geography, 6th through 8th grade World Cultures, Texas History, and Early American History in private schools, and I have recently begun teaching 11th grade US History back in public schools. While I tutor a broad range of subjects, I am most passionate about History and writing. In my experience students learn the best when the teacher is approachable and enthusiastic, making me a great teacher and tutor, obviously!I truly believe in the necessity of a great education so that those around me can find what interests them and fulfills their life.

I have been in education since 2004. I received my undergraduate at Texas A&M University in biomedical science and then went on to get my Masters at University of Houston-Clear Lake in education. I was a classroom teacher for many years teaching 1st for 5 years and then a year of each of the following 2nd, PK3/PK4, 1st/2nd combo. I then became a dyslexia/intervention teacher teaching dyslexia to K-8th grade and intervention for the same grades for math, science and ELA/reading. From there I moved into a director position and had the privilege of teaching other teachers. I am passionate about teaching reading so that students have a strong foundation. I love math and science and you will always find me with a book just in case I have a few minutes. I love to learn and love helping others discover that they can love to learn. My approach is not one size fits all. Let's chat, allow me to see what you know/struggle with and then we will dive in from there. I teach in a judgement free zone and aim to connect with each individual so that we can work together in a comfortable, safe setting where any question can be asked and academic conversations flow freely.

I love helping students with English, essay writing, technical writing, and understanding reading assignments! I have been teaching and tutoring for many years at the high school and college levels. I received my BA in English at the University of Texas and my MA at the University of Houston. I also took Masters level classes specifically in teaching writing at Texas A&M University. I worked as a technical writer for a NASA contractor during the Shuttle program and helped astronauts and flight controllers write training documents. I also worked in advertising and information technology. As you can see, I love writing and helping others with their writing!

As a seasoned educator with a strong passion for teaching, I bring over eight years of experience in academic enrichment and after-school support. Holding a Bachelor's degree in Business Administration and English Teaching from Vietnam, I furthered my education by earning a Master of Business Administration degree from the University of Houston-Clear Lake in 2010. Throughout my career, I have had the pleasure of working with students of diverse ages and backgrounds, providing personalized support in math, reading, and writing. My teaching philosophy is centered around the belief that every individual has the capacity to learn and improve with patience and persistence. In addition to my teaching experience, I have also assisted students in preparing for standardized tests, including the CogAt and ISEE. As a fluent speaker of both Vietnamese and English, I am well-equipped to support students from diverse linguistic backgrounds. I am thrilled to have the opportunity to collaborate with you and contribute my skills and expertise to make a positive impact.

I work as a full stack developer for an IT Company. I have received a bachelors of science in math and computer science at the University of Houston - Downtown and a masters of science in computer science at the University of Houston - Clearlake. I am most passionate about math and computer science. I have taught community college developmental math classes for about 2 years. When I was a math student, I learn best by example and as a math teacher and tutor, I prefer to teach by example by walking through the steps and making sure the steps are understood. Also, starting off with the big picture, such as what is the purpose, is important as well. In my spare time, I enjoy reading, exercise, cooking, live music, and game design.

I am a student at University of Houston-Clear Lake. I am majoring in mathematics with a certification to teach grades 8-12. I have recently aced both my teaching certification exams! I am currently a student teacher in Pearland. My favorite subject is Algebra. I also enjoy Calculus, Geometry, Physics, and other mathematics. I realize most people do not like math, but I believe enthusiasm is contagious. I enjoy helping others, especially when it comes to math. I like to spend time outside, read, paint, and listen to music in my spare time.

Grad student at UHCL in Computer Science.I have a passion for programming and helping other learn to code and the fundamentals of logic needed to think as a programmer.

Hi! My name is Stacey Turner and I have been teaching for 16 years. I have a B.A. in English from Texas ATM and an M.S. from UHCL in Reading. I have taught preschool, kindergarten, first and second grade. I have also taught upper elementary, junior high, and high school students reading and writing skills. In addition I have experience teaching children as well as adults ESL and have an ESL license. I am certified in the state of Texas and New York. My favorite subject to teach is reading. I have even taught children in pull ups how to read! Reading for me is a vehicle that can change and enrich your life, even helping you to become a better person learning about the world around you. For young children reading and writing is like learning how to ride a bicycle. In the beginning it can be a bit mechanical, but once the senses are engaged along with the imagination reading can become alive! It is my desire to help every student that I teach feel confident in his/her abilities to read/write/ and speak the English language. I enjoy helping people succeed and will do everything in my power to help you achieve your goals. Learning is fun and meant to be a lifelong journey. I feel privileged to help you along the way. I am also skilled in many software learning applications at all learning levels including early childhood reading readiness. In addition I have a membership to RazKids which is a leveled reading program that offers colorful books of various genres that are matched to student's reading levels. I use the texts to teach comprehension and word skills. The program also has built in comprehension activities to help the reader grow.

I am a certified teacher in the state of Texas (8-12 Social Studies Composite) with 10 years of experience in a variety of fields including American and European History. I earned my Bachelor's Degree from Sam Houston State University and my Master's from University of Houston Clear Lake.As an educator my goal is to help students realize their potential by teaching them skills instead of facts. I realize that your time is precious so I set out to facilitate learning instead of merely reciting details.

In the winter of 2004, I had the pleasure of earning my first degree from Texas Southern University. I received a Bachelors of Arts in Psychology. From there I entered the classroom and began my teaching career. I began working with at risk students at an alternative school for behavioral concerns. I noticed that many of the students there were smart but had behavioral characteristics that hindered their learning process. I started as a teacher aide but enjoyed it so much that I decided to become certified. I chose to receive my certification in grades 4-8 in all content areas. My personal belief is that these are those most critical times of a students educational career. My desire to want to become a counselor blossomed in those first four years. I made the decision in 2008 to work towards a Masters' degree in School Counseling. I attended University of Houston-Clear Lake and obtained my degree in 2012. During the road to my degrees, I had the pleasure of teaching middle school students in all content areas. Now that I have been a school counselor for the past fours years I have come to miss the classroom environment. There is so much joy in watching students learn something new and the excitement they present. The primary subjects that I tutor are English & Language Arts and middle school level Math. Essay writing would probably be considered my favorite subject since I consider myself a writer as well. Many students struggle with the subject because they are not sure what to say. My advice to students is always to follow your knowledge of the topic and let your mind flow freely. When working with students I try to get to know them as an individual so that learning can be tailored to their needs. There are no two brains that think alike and therefore should be taught using different methods at times. One of the largest components that becomes a hurdle in student learning is study skills or lack thereof. Before I start working with a student I always investigate their studying style. Based on the method they utilize I do my best to tweak the needed changes to maximize student learning. Whenever my time is not devoted to educating I love to listen to music and write poetry. I try to be a student of all genres of music because I believe songs tell the story of a person. My favorite sports are basketball and boxing although I find myself drawn to anything that has a competitive nature.

My name is Fabiola and I am a native Spanish speaker and educator for 19 years. I love to help you unlock your Spanish or English language powers. I have worked with bilingual/ESL students and Spanish learning learners. Working with learners of all ages and language instruction of all levels has helped me shape my craft to maximize learning. My strengths are innovative e-learning instruction with highly interactive and engaging lessons. I welcome the chance to teach you this beautiful language and give you direct insight into my culture.

I am passionate about helping students identify and achieve their learning goals because I recognize, based on personal and professional experience, that there is power in committing to goals and making a clear plan to reach or exceed those goals. My teaching philosophy includes applying a collaborative, interactive, and dynamic approach to learning. Life changes all the time and our learning goals should as well. The more we reach from our current level to the next, the more we grow, even if it may hurt a little! In my life I have worked with students of all ages on two continents. I believe that learning is a partnership and both student and tutor/teacher should be changed for the good because of the interactions. I was formally educated both in the United States and Spain. I hold a Bachelor's Degree in Spanish and Mexican American Studies, a Master's Degree in Spanish Linguistics, Master's Certificate in Educational Leadership, and a lifetime teaching certificate (various areas of certification) in the state of Texas. I continue to be informally educated, though, wherever I go. My perspective is that learning happens continually, if we maintain a posture of humility. In support of that, I would like my students to know that I am taking steps to get a Paralegal Degree and my next goal will be my Doctoral Degree! Outside of academia I am interested in travel, gardening, astronomy, nature, reading, painting, and more.

I have been a tutor for the past 10 years years, tutoring students from Pre-K to College level, in a wide range of subjects, including math, science, and English. I am most passionate about math and science related subjects, such as elementary school math, algebra, algebra 2, geometry, calculus, biology, and chemistry. I am also fluent in Spanish, which has been beneficial in reaching out to more students who are not fluent in English, and has given me the opportunity to tutor Spanish as well. I crave helping others, and tutoring is a way to help students meet their individual goals and struggles. Aside from work and school, I love spending time with my 2 toddlers, exercising, reading, hanging with my friends and family, and adventures with my dogs.

My name is Patrick Rodriguez. I am currently a third grade math and science teacher. I am certified to teach Kindergarten - 6th grade. I have worked in public schools for over 10 years and have experience working with students ranging from Kindergarten - 9th grade.As a public school teacher, I understand that many students sometimes need the extra one on one instruction to truly master the concepts they are learning in school. I have taught all subjects at the elementary level and fancy myself as a good writer.

I strongly believe that every student is capable of learning, we just have to find the right tools and strategies to help them be successful. I am currently going into my 18th year of teaching, and have taught a variety of students and subjects.

I believe in educating the whole student. I graduated from University of Houston with a degree in Business. I then matriculated to University of Houston-Clear Lake to receive an Education degree with a focus in Reading Instruction. I am a Texas certified Reading Specialist and Master Reading Teacher. I have tutored students that are Second Language Learners, students with special needs and students that are dyslexic and dysgraphic. I have tutored students in the areas of English Language Arts, Math, Social Studies, GED completion and STAAR test prep. My favorite subjects to tutor are reading and math. I believe teachers everywhere should meet their students where they are. By saying this I mean teachers should start instruction from the students familiarity level and move up from there. I love long distance cycling and reading young adult fiction. I also like to play video games.

I am a graduate of the University of Houston-Clear Lake. I received my Bachelor of Arts inBiological Sciences, Masters of Science in Biological Sciences and Masters of Science in Environmental Chemistry. I hold Texas teaching certifications in Life Science and Chemistry as well as Gifted and Talented. While I have taught 8th grade science, chemistry, pre-ap chemistry, AP chemistry, college anatomy & physiology and college chemistry, chemistry at all levels is my favorite subject. I have had the honor of working with NASA for many years in the development of science and math content based on the space shuttle and space station. In addition, I have developed curriculum for the sciences with an education service center in chemistry, biology and physics. I have a true passion for education and providing students with a real world and engaging approach to what they are learning.

I'm a native Texan with a BA in Communication. I have a passion for helping others, environmentalism, and celebrating life.

In the past two years, I have worked as a photographer and reporter for The Baytown Sun newspaper, public relations committee member for Keep Baytown Beautiful, volunteer at the Eddie V.

Twentieth-century author Flannery O'Connor left behind two novels, thirty-two short stories, numerous essays, and one frequently-quoted observation: "I write so that I know what I'm thinking." In a similarly self-reflective spirit, I have come to believe that I teach so that I know what I have learned, and how I have learned it. During my first semester as a graduate student, my concentration within the English major was creative writing. In my second semester, I migrated to technical writing. My exposure to both disciplines has given me a great appreciation for all phases of the writing process, from the beautiful chaos of creation to the process of imposing order on what you have created: proofreading, header style definition, and everything else that makes a document look as though it had been as easy to write as it is to read. I've heard many students state plainly that they did not know how to write. I believe the first duty of a composition instructor is to prove two things to students: that they do know how to write, and that writing can be a rewarding means of self-expression, as opposed to the exercise in drudgery that students so often think it is. What I have found, in teaching both English and math, is that assignments should not simply be explained and repeated until the students catch on. Rather, the instructor should look for engaging illustrations of the concepts that underlie those assignments, so that they are easier to understand and more enjoyable to complete.

I love math so much that it has become a lifestyle. I used to read Harry Potter and think "If only magic were real, I'd study so hard that I'd be the best wizard ever!" (pardon my tastes if you're not into fantasy)Well magic is real. Magic is the underlying mechanism of reality: how the world works, and math is the language it's written in.I've heard things like "math is cold and calculating," but I would argue that math is closer to English and the arts than it is to the sciences. Math is about curiosity, creativity, and intuition; you're writing spells to solve the problems of the world.Any calculator can do arithmetic, but if I can show you why the math exists in the first place, and how to invent it yourself, then and only then have I done my job.

As a native French speaker born in Belgium and a graduate of the University of Houston with a degree in Health and Nutrition, I bring a unique blend of linguistic fluency, cultural awareness, and educational experience to the role of French tutor. My passion for languages and cultural exchange has always been a central part of who I am, and I am excited about the opportunity to share that passion with students seeking to improve their French proficiency. Throughout my academic and professional journey, I have developed a strong foundation in communication and teaching, both of which are essential for effective language instruction. My background in health and nutrition has taught me the importance of patience, empathy, and adaptability, qualities that I bring into every tutoring session. I strive to create a supportive and engaging learning environment where students feel comfortable making progress at their own pace. Beyond academics, I lead an active lifestyle and am deeply committed to wellness and creativity. These personal interests allow me to connect with learners in meaningful ways, using real-life examples and cultural insights to enrich their language learning experience. I am confident that my native fluency, educational background, and enthusiasm for teaching make me a strong candidate for this position. I am eager to help students gain confidence in their French language skills while deepening their understanding of Francophone culture.

I have always loved learning, and I always hoped to pass this down to others. I know academics can be frustrating sometimes, but my goal is to help others move past this frustration and see their true potential!

My passion for helping students stems from the transformative power of education. Witnessing the growth and development of students as they gain confidence in their abilities and achieve their academic goals is incredibly rewarding. Education is not just about imparting knowledge; it is about inspiring curiosity, fostering creativity, and instilling a lifelong love of learning.

I'm an undergraduate at UH-Clear Lake working on a B.S. in Mathematical Sciences. I've tutored for about two years now, including a year working at San Jacinto College's Math Center. It was a great experience because it was very busy and I got the chance to help dozens of students every day. However, I enjoy one-on-one tutoring the most because there is less pressure to help as many people as possible. Instead, I can focus on a single student for the entire session.I have tutored a very diverse range of students. There have been grandmothers returning to school for the first time in 30 years, high school students taking challenging AP courses, and college students from many different backgrounds. No matter the person, I am always thrilled to get the chance to learn with my students and help them develop the skills to learn independently.Most of my students are looking for help in mathematics courses, but I have also had students taking Chemistry and Physics courses both in high school and college. I particularly enjoy tutoring AP Physics and Chemistry students.When I am not studying or tutoring math and sciences, I like to spend my time reading, playing my piano, or enjoying a nice day at the park with my dog. I am also a martial artist. I have been studying Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu since 2008. It is a very technical art and I appreciate the benefits of challenging myself mentally and physically.

I am a retired K-5 teacher with 30 years experience. Through my years of teaching, I have learned that no two learners are alike. All learners want to be successful and I find great pleasure in finding ways for each learner to experience personal success.
