In that I have been tutoring consistently for the past seven years, I believe I have developed some highly effective techniques for enabling each individual student to reach his or her potential. My first mission upon initiating tutoring with a new student is to identify his or her particular personality and background. Once an understanding is developed between tutor and student, the more theoretical aspects of the student's studies can be approached. Lastly, I find it essential to engage the student in activities related to his or her studies that are genuinely interesting and relevant to the real world. While attending the University of Chicago (2003-2007), I completed a rigorous curriculum characterized by both advanced coursework in mathematics and the social sciences. Each year leading up to graduation, I served as a mathematics tutor within the Cook County School district. I

I believe any child has the ability to do anything in the world if they are given the opportunity and necessary skills. Many times educators falter because they have been teaching so long that they forget a student’s mindset is different. I believe that a great educator will listen to the needs and strengths of the student directly from the student to help detect what is preventing the student from completely mastering a particular skill. This is why I incorporate all learning styles into my teaching not for the purpose of being redundant but to allocate the best learning style and expose the student to other undiscovered learning styles. My goal is to provide the best education experience for our future leaders. Coming from a family of educators has greatly influenced my admiration and passion in education. This passion has in-turn helped me earn my bachelor in Criminal Justice and now

I modify my teaching style to reflect what works. Children are all different and the same explanation or example will not work best for everyone. I taught horseback riding to children ages 7-16 in an outdoor education environment. Although academic tutoring is of course different, the principles are the same.

As the eldest of five children, I have a life of experience working with children and teaching has always been a part of my life, even before I began working in education professionally. I believe that all students should be treated with respect and professionalism and I believe that this is the basis of any good educational approach. I also find that understanding a particular student's needs and learning style is essential. I often employ the Socratic method of teaching students, using questions to elicit thought-provoking discussion of materials. In 2005, I graduated Summa Cum Laude from Carroll College with a BA in English Writing and Literature. During this time I was awarded membership into six National Honors Societies for academic excellence in various studies, including English Writing, English Literature and Philosophy. After graduating, I entered into Graduate Studies in Writi

Earning my BA degree and Teaching Credential from SDSU, I also have units equivalent to a Master's in curriculum development and health information. Recognized as an outstanding and dedicated teacher by parents and students, I have successfully taught primary, upper grades and junior high.
