As a student, I was able to travel Europe, complete four internships within the industry, serve as an interpreter during international business negotiations and work as a graphic design assistant at the university. These experiences helped me to develop good time-management skills. In addition, I enhanced my ability to think creatively and work effectively under pressure. I possess a strong work ethic, solid organizational and managerial skills, and the ability to create a dynamic team environment. I was the winner of various academic awards in the field of Russian language and literature studies, and also possess some Russian tutoring experience. I love teaching and working with all children. I believe all children can learn, but each in different ways. I am available to help your child find academic success. I am patient, easy going, and considerate. My goal is to provide the best

My teaching style includes connections and manipulatives. I have been trained in different learning styles and how to adapt to each type of learner. It is my experience that children learn well when they are in a risk free environment and they feel love and concern for their well being. I truly enjoy helping children aspire and reach levels they never thought possible. I am committed to do whatever it takes to help students achieve and feel good about their accomplishments. Before earning my Bachelor of Science degree in Elementary Education I had filled two English tutoring positions. Teaching one-on-one and small groups is a rewarding experience for me. Working with elementary students energizes me, and it is my ambition to see learners achieve above their expectations. I have had more than 10 years of experience working with children and have been told I have a natural gift in t

I have a wide variety of experience and an innate desire to learn more about the world around me. I began my undergraduate degree in Political Science, but after taking a Biology course in California, became rather excited about the sciences. I have worked in a variety of laboratory settings, as well as in the field, applying the science that I have learned to real life situations and truly gaining a better understanding of the dynamic nature of the sciences. This is what I love. From reading the latest National Geographic to listening to Science Friday on NPR, the never-ending potential of science today excites me and certainly makes me a more dynamic, animated instructor. My teaching style is very adaptive and enthusiastic, stemming from a genuine love of the material. I enjoy getting students excited about science and the endless potentials that may be found within the sciences,
