I am a very patient person, and I like to help. It may take a session or two, but I'm confident that I can adapt my teaching style to meet your needs. I am a 2011 graduate of the United States Naval Academy with a Bachelors of Science in Political Science. During my education, I was exposed to many subjects, ranging from Electrical Engineering to European Literature. The most important things I learned during my time there were time management and study skills, because without a strong foundation in those subjects, one can not excel in others.

I have a relaxed, stress-free teaching style, while staying on task and topic. I make sure the pupils really understand the material by breaking things down to the basics, and reviewing the foundations. After reviewing and application of the concepts, I have my students switch roles and "teach" me the material. I believe if you can explain the material to someone else, you really understand it. I double-majored in biology in chemistry in undergrad, so the field of science and medicine is my first love and my strength. I have also received a Masters of Public Health Degree in Epidemiology, and have since completed my 2nd year of medical school. I have always had a strong affinity for math and english as well. I have a published thesis paper that was constructed and presented as required for my masters curriculum. I have been tutoring since I was in high school, and have tutored elementary

My teaching style initally involves getting to the know the person, what they are struggling with, why they think they may need a tutor, and anything they have tried in the past and what has and has not worked for them. I like to encorporate all aspects to assist with learning (visual aids, listening, and hands-on/practical). This may involve games, cartoons/movies (if tutoring Spanish), worksheeets. I also feel that goal-setting is important, and I think I would ask the tutee to set some individual/personal goals for themself, (i.e. amount of time studying or achieving certain fluency level). I recently earned my M.A. in Counseling. I have extensive experience in working with individuals (children, adolescents, adults), from diverse backgrounds. I have earned two B.A. degrees, in Psychology and Spanish. I am very familiar with the academic and learning environment, as well as the

I believe in teaching the individual. Every student learns differently, therefore I have always presented the material in as many ways as possible. If you asked any of my former students what my favorite phrase was, they would say "you do what works best for you!" I have a passion for educating, I am flexible,and patient. I earned my BA in Elementary Education from the University of Iowa in 2004.I have a total of seven years working in the classroom.

While studying in college to become an elementary teacher I sought out many opportunities to practice my new skills and found them in all levels of academia from helping first graders learn to read to assisting my peers with their college papers. Since graduating, I have continued to find diverse ways to build upon my experience to become proficient in many areas. I have worked in settings in which children and adults know very little English as well as a classroom geared toward the gifted and talented students and finally overseas tutoring homeschooled children. Through my different experiences I have gained insight into how to motivate students to learn as well as strategies to help them reach success. Teaching is a joy to me and privilege I am grateful to have. I am a creative, patient, and caring person and I love to incorporate games and fun into learning while maintaining the seri
