Jael Faulcon has been coaching students since 2004 to understand how to use financial software and read financial statements and reports. My LinkedIn profile can be found at http://www.linkedin.com/in/jaelfaulcon.
Tutoring is a resource to give students an extra boost to reach their academic and professional development goals. I enjoy seeing people reach their goals and find satisfaction in accomplishment.

Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
When a student contacts us, we review an onboarding checklist that describes their experience, expectations, commitment and financial resources.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have an associate's degree and certificate in small business accounting. Completing the QuickBooks ProAdvisor certification has been a big help for me to understand accounting software and generally accepted principles for accounting.
Do you have a standard pricing system for your lessons? If so, please share the details here.
The most reasonable rate for lessons is $35/hour. It is the same I would charge to actually do the work.
How did you get started teaching?
When I was a student in community college, I worked as a tutor in the EOPS program. That was fun. I tutored a variety of subjects from Chemistry to Math. From 2000 to 2004 I worked with the Los Angeles County Office of Education as a training coordinator for a system designed by LACOE. I enjoyed occasional opportunities to teach and learned how much software users appreciated help to understand how the software system and accounting principles work.
What types of students have you worked with?
Adult learners have been my most recent students. I have volunteered to teach Bible lessons since high school. So I do have experience with teaching children.
Describe a recent event you are fond of.
My most fond experience teaching was helping a student see the straightforward relationship of the accounting equation to the three elements of the balance sheet with the income statement being an explosion of the net income.
What advice would you give a student looking to hire a teacher in your area of expertise?
The teacher should have real world experience in business operations.
What questions should students think through before talking to teachers about their needs?
The student should think about:
How do I learn? What pace is most effective for me to learn? What is my expectation of the teacher? By what measurement will I gauge I am learning what I need? What is my expectation of the material I will learn? Do I need theory to pass a test or real world experience? Do I need special accomodations for learning? What is my timeframe for learning? How committed am I to learning this subject matter? Am I prepared to meet the financial responsibility to the teacher?
