One of my two minors was human geography. I completed courses in physical geography and oceanography as well.

Very communicative. I first build a basic rapport with the student, seeing what methods of teaching could work well for each individual student. Some students need slower, more exhaustive coverage of the material, while other students understand the main concepts and just have specific questions that I can help them with. With all students I tutor, I strive to create a friendly but professional relationship so that students can feel comfortable with any questions they may have. Private tutoring with local students, professional tutoring with the San Dieguito Union High School district for two years. I helped middle through high school students work through subject areas they found difficult, as well as focusing extra attention on special needs students. Subject areas include Algebra, Geometry, Precalculus, Calculus, Statistics, History, and English.

I have a bachelor's degree in history and a master's in teaching in elementary education. I have taught 1st and 2nd grade and have also tutored throughout the year and during the summer. Both students I tutored were 1st graders and I tutored them in mainly reading and math.

I also work in an after school program teaching reading skills to second graders. I have taken several Spanish classes and can read, speak, and write some. Teaching has always been a passion of mine. There's never a dull moment, because the children are learning at different speeds and it's exciting when each one latches on to a concept. I make sure to differentiate instruction to
