More About This Tutor...

My passion is helping people overcome obstacles in their lives. For this reason I attained a B.S. in Psychology and a M.S. in Clinical Social Work. I excelled academically while working on both degrees. These contributed to my skills in working well with people in various roles, especially in educational and clinical settings. I have many years of experience instructing and educating people of all ages in various subjects. In addition, I have experience working in special education settings for teens. Currently, due to a work-related injury, I am taking a break from full-time work. Instead, I am an independent contractor for tutoring services and love working with adults, teens and kids.
I love to teach, and I enjoy working with all people from any age or background. I am a creative, empathic, patient, professional and trustworthy tutor. I believe that everyone can learn in ... read more
