About Me

Experience Summary

My tutoring style is serious yet fun, and I bring a lot of patience and enthusiasm to my tutoring sessions. Students of all ages and abilities, from elementary students with reading difficulties to adult learners of ESL, have benefited from my services. My approach to teaching is tailored to each student's needs because I believe everyone is unique with their own set of strengths and weaknesses. With a background in psychology, I bring the added skill of communicating effectively with my students and quickly understanding their needs. My personality is encouraging, positive and patient, and that has served me well in building relationships with my students. My role is to help the student express their thoughts in a clear, concise manner, use English correctly, and help expand his or her knowledge base. My students come from all majors including psychology, literature, history, and the sciences. I assist with personal statements and research papers, college essays, high school projects, to name a few. Additionally, as a Magna Cum Laude graduate student with a Master's in Organizational Psychology, I have expertise in AP, Chicago and APA writing styles.

Teaching Style

I adapt my style according to the needs of my students because everyone has unique and different abilities.

My Hobbies

Painting on canvas, tennis, working out and reading are my hobbies. I also enjoy traveling, fine dining, extreme sports, and spending time with my kids.

Other Comments

I am available most days and weekends, and I will travel up to 15 miles of my location.

Subject Commentary

English This is one of my top subjects! Proficiency: Expert
Throughout my teaching experience I have encountered students of all ages and abilities, from elementary students with reading difficulties to adult learners of ESL. My approach to teaching is tailored to each student's needs because I believe that every student is unique with their own set of strengths and weaknesses. While I enjoyed teaching in a classroom, I love one-on-one tutoring because of the complete attention I can pay to each student. My personality is encouraging, positive and patient, and that has served me well in building relationships at WyzAnt Tutoring and Thumbtack. My role is to help the tutee express themselves, use English correctly, and help expand his or her knowledge base.
Reading This is one of my top subjects! Proficiency: Expert
Throughout my teaching experience I have encountered students of all ages and abilities, from elementary students with reading difficulties to adult learners of ESL. My approach to teaching tutees how to read is tailored to each student's level because I believe that every student is unique with their own set of strengths and weaknesses. While I enjoyed teaching reading at High Point Elementary, I love one-on-one tutoring because of the complete attention I can pay to each student. My personality is encouraging, positive and patient, and that has served me well in building relationships at WyzAnt Tutoring and Thumbtack. My role is to help the tutee express themselves, use English correctly, and help expand his or her knowledge base.
Writing This is one of my top subjects! Proficiency: Expert
As a writer and editor with over 15 years experience writing for online and offline platforms, I expanded my reach to include one-on-one tutoring because of my additional background as a teacher. As a tutor, I work with undergraduate, graduate and international students on all aspects of the writing process. This encompasses brainstorming, outlining, drafting, formatting, topic sentence work, grammar and ESL concerns. My tutees come from all majors including Psychology, Literature, History, and the sciences. I assist with personal statements and research papers, college essays, high school projects, to name a few. Additionally, as a Magna Cum Laude graduate student with a Master's in Organizational Psychology, I am well-versed in AP, Chicago and APA writing styles. Imparting my knowledge to others is tremendously rewarding but watching tutees develop their own writing skills is even more gratifying.
