Available 7 days a week.

I am currently entering my senior year at the Woodlands High School seeking any opportunity to earn money to go towards college. Throughout all of my years of high school, I have taken multiple advanced placement and honors courses every year. Previous employments at companies like Shankz Blacklight Mini Golf, and Yucatan Taco Stand have honed my people skills, making it much easier to conduct myself in a public, and especially teaching environment.
Audibly or visually, mainly going over paperwork and explaining strategies one on one or to a small group.

Reading, Writing, STAAR Preparation (Testing Skills)!!!!

Finding a point of interest that motivates a child is extremely important. Reading and writing can seem like chores or homework for students, but helping them to see the joy of these things is key.

More About This Tutor...

For the last 23 years, I have educated elementary, middle, high school and adult students in all subject areas. I also served as a Language Arts Tracher/Trainer in the U.S. Peace Corps. As a special educator, I taught students with behavior problems and learning disabilities. My service in education has compelled me to develop a strong sense of compassion for educating individuals, by providing them with the encouragement to boost their desire for learning, as well as tools for acquiring success.
Having taught, elementary, middle, high school, and adults; I have discovered that learning can and will take place. The type of learning that needs to take place depends on the type of teaching that is facilitated. Without teaching; guided, organized, purposeful matriculation in an environment–laden with material and visual information intended to enhance and frame an individual’s knowle ... read more

I believe that teaching should be a collaborative process. The first step is to listen to the child and try to gain a sense of their own learning process. If you understand how the child learns, you will be better able to help him or her understand new concepts. I believe tutoring is invaluable in this regard, since it provides individual attention. Most classrooms are large, and ill-equipped to focus on each child's individual needs.
My tutoring began in high school, when I tutored younger students in any subject, from Math to English. I learned to love tutoring. I enjoy helping people to realize their full potential. The most rewarding part of tutoring, in my opinion, is the look on the child's face when something finally makes sense. I have obtained a BBA from the University of Toledo. While in college, I spent a year as a tutor and mentor to younger students, and to help teach ... read more
