Even before I graduated from NDNU with my teaching credential in English and social studies, I have tutored for several years in almost every subject. I have come to understand that each individual has his/her own unique way of learning. The way I teach is very simple. I explain my teaching style using the analogy of a mother bird teaching her baby how to fly. The mother guides her baby, teaching it, showing it the ropes of life, and when it comes time, the baby flies off on its own with no help. This is quite similar to how I teach and tutor children. I guide them through lesson plans and homework with a helping hand, and when it comes time for them to "fly," I let them go and hopefully they will understand the concept and be able to work individually. When this happens, it is truly an inspiring moment, to be there and watch children grow.

I am patient while helping others and never give up on anyone. I enjoy bringing a friendly attitude and a sense of comfort to my teaching style. I believe repetition is key to a person's learning and development. It gives me great satisfaction to help someone accomplish their goals. I have always had good math skills. Throughout high school and college I have taken plenty of courses in accelerated alegebra, geometry, trigonometry, and calculus, etc. I earned an economics degree with a statistics and math minor at Northwestern University. I also had some brief tutoring experience in high school math. Lastly, I have just moved to the Las Vegas area and wish to devote my time to the community's education.

My mother was a teacher for 33 years. Many summers she worked as a tutor and all through high-school and college I helped her. I graded student's papers, read with them, and helped with their homework. When I was in college, I tutored students in Spanish and English as a second language. My strongest subject is mathematics which is why I became an accountant. My grammatical skills are good due to writing reports when I worked as an auditor for the Gaming Control Board. I like my students and we seem to have a good connection. I will not preach. I was a public speaker for three years and know many techniques to communicate a message, without putting your audience to sleep. Practice makes excellence; therefore, repetition is a good learning technique. I believe every child has a capacity to excel, some may just need a little dedication.

I returned to school in 1996 while working full time to pursue a Bachelor's degree in business management. In this environment, I learned to work successfully academically in a team setting with students from a variety of different backgrounds, ethnicities, ages and genders. I was the commencement speaker for my graduating class and I felt so inspired to continue my education that I immediately began the Master's program. Two years later, I graduated with Master of Business Administration (MBA) degree. Two years after that, I began teaching on campus one night a week in business management. Two years after starting teaching, I became certified to teach distance education through the online format. My credentials include successful teaching/tutoring at both a major private university and at a professional career college locally. I love teaching and working with all children. I belie

I have found that drill is the best method to learn. After reading, writing, and arithmetic, I have added two more R's; review it and repeat it. I realize that this method needs to be individually applied according to the student's needs. I have experience in the commercial field teaching adult computer applications. I also taught literacy to adults.

I am a full-time college student. My strengths are math and science. During my first year of college, I took five math classes and received an "A" in all of them.

Growing up my mother ran a tutoring program out of our home. This is where I initially learned the skills involved in tutoring. Ever since I was 16, I was aiding my mother in various tutoring sessions and when I entered University at age 18 I worked as a lead tutor for a tutoring program for at-risk children of the Azusa community in California. For two years, I worked with and watched as various children I tutored and mentored grew and overcame learning obstacles, excelling in the classroom as well as at home. Throughout my high school and university years, my education has fine-tuned my reading and writing skills through the endless process of research papers, thesis', and creative writings.
