Experience Summary
My experience in academic and service pursuits have consistently improved my education and abilities to transfer knowledge. I have earned a BA in Latin American Studies with a minor in Business Administration. My training in the sciences includes the prerequisite classes for acceptance to dental schools and extra training in cellular biology. I have participated in research during my undergraduate education, which has familiarized me with researching and understanding scientific literature. Over the past several years, I have trained many people from different cultures, countries, and backgrounds, including Peru, Argentina, and the United States. Topics that I have taught and tutored include Spanish, English, mathematics, and sciences.
Teaching Style
I have experience working with students from many different backgrounds and cultures. I find that patience, friendliness, and genuine care and concern for the student yield the greatest results. I like to take different approaches to subjects, especially when the first try is not understood very well. My ultimate goal with teaching and tutoring is to enable the student to be able to teach the subject to others. Students are able to learn best by doing. I want them to assimilate the knowledge and apply it to their daily lives.
