A Little Bit About Me...

I began tutoring my freshman year of college. I participated in a Sparks High School program designed to assist and motivate at risk students to achieve their educational goals. Tutoring continued through my own educational career, as I have spent countless hours assisting fellow peers and younger students with their school work. Now as a young professional, I would like to continue to assist today’s youth. My Law degree, along with my Bachelor of Science and Associate of Arts degrees in Business Management, shows my diverse expertise in both language arts and math. In addition, I highly enjoy science and have always excelled in Physics, Chemistry and Biology.
Most of my life has been focused on obtaining my education and improving my educational goals. I have a deep desire to assist others in reaching their full potential. I know that everyone learns in different ways, so m ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have a friendly, encouraging approach with my students; I like them to feel comfortable working with me, but I also let them know that I have high expectations and that our tutoring sessions are not social time. My goal is to get students to understand the material and feel comfortable discussing and applying it, so my tutoring sessions are often very conversational. I provide a lot of feedback and will have students practice difficult concepts multiple times before moving on because I believe that practice is a key component to learning. I like to get to know my students and pinpoint their academic strengths and weaknesses so that together we can build on those things.
I recently graduated from University of Nevada, Reno summa cum laude. I was also my high school valedictorian. I have always excelled in school because I love learning and have great organization and study skills. ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

As a tutor, I am professional and pleasant, well-organized and prepared. I explain concepts clearly and thoroughly. In tutoring sessions, with individuals or groups, I am empathetic and listen well. Early on, I will assess my student's strengths and areas for improvement--as well as interests and learning style. This helps me be even more effective in helping students progress. I am a patient and articulate tutor/teacher. I have truly enjoyed the many years I have helped my students.
I am an award-winning educator, with 10+ years' experience teaching community college level English (095, 098, 101, 102) and Strategies for Academic Success. I also have 5 years' experience tutoring in study skills and all aspects of writing, including researched writing. I am excellent at teaching and love it, especially working one-on-one with students. I am a strong test-taker and enjoy com ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I prefer a "hands on" approach in a one-on-one environment. I have had success with classrooms of up to 120 students, but I prefer the individual monitoring. It yields the best results. I have tutored remedial reading at the Elementary level for a tutoring service out of Phoenix, AZ for the Washoe County School System in Reno. While in my undergraduate study, I tutored fellow students who were struggling with beginning music theory. Another classmate and I taught classes in 4 levels of theory for up to 120 students while at U of P-West Chester. I teach Music Reading, Voice production and beginning theory to individuals in my church choir as well as microphone and performance technique.
I hold a BS in Mus. Ed. and an MM in Music Composition. I taught at the Elementary and Secondary level for 5 years, then moved on to teach in a Community college for 26 years. my subjects were app ... read more
