About Me

Experience Summary

I have experience teaching individuals of all ages. I have been working with various tutoring companies since May. Furthermore, I have taught numerous children how to read and do basic math. I have tutored many of my classmates in various subjects including psychology, English, biology, and algebra since high school. I facilitate day treatment groups teaching severely emotionally disturbed children social skills, behavior management, and life skills. These children also have a range of diagnoses such as autism or ADHD. I helped provide group and individual reading instruction for adults with developmental disabilities for a year. During this time I also supervised clients and helped teach arts, theater, and dance classes for adults with developmental disabilities. I used to be a church nursery teacher where I taught basic gospel principles to children 18 months through three years old. I am CPR/AED/First Aid certified.

Teaching Style

I am a compassionate, adaptable, and enthusiastic individual who is dedicated to helping individuals reach their unique potentials. My teaching involves having high expectations combined with a high level of warmth and reinforcement. I believe everyone can learn, and everyone has the right to be taught in a way they can understand.
