Understanding the subject is understanding the student

I have experience with children from my 1 year working at Main Event Entertainment, my 4 months at PuttPutt Fun House, and my current volunteer work teaching Sunday school at my religious Hindu temple. I have also taught some of my peers and some of my neighbors in the past. I am a junior at UHCL, studying Healthcare administration.
I myself have add and dyslexia, so I know both ways to teach to kids with mental disabilities and ways to reach without. My teaching style varies from student to student based on how I see they respond.I like to meet with the student before we start scheduling lessons to understand who they are as a person and a student. I am dedicated to creating a curriculum personalized to them.

More About This Tutor...

I enjoy helping people to learn. Aside from knowledge base expertise, certain qualities exemplify a good tutor: patience and being a good listener. Understanding a student’s learning strategies is foundational and incorporates good listening qualities. A desirable outcome will then be more achievable for the student. I try to let my student, regardless of age/grade, not feel intimidated or unintelligent regarding a certain subject or problem.
