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 distric ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have taught/tutored for over twenty-Five years in California, Arizona, Virginia, and Ontario, Canada. I taught/ mentored students from around the world at a Canadian boarding school. I have held teaching certificates in Arizona, Virginia and California. I also taught three years of Greek and experience teaching Grades K-12.
I am a philosopher at heart. I enjoy students and desire to share with them my love for learning which is a life-long process. Learning should be a stress free, engaging, encouraging and enjoyable experience. It is my great pleasure to help a person understand a concept. I enjoy playing the piano, listening to opera and classical music.

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 provides fuel as I strive to earn my Juris Doctor. My life long journey in education has sharpened my communication, writing and teaching skills. Furthermore, my exposure to a variety of teaching methods, including my fluency in Spanish, gives me the opportunity to communicate with my students in distinct ways and ensuring me it is tailored to their individual learning style.
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 ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

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 ... read more

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. In addition, I instructed high school students in preparation for the SAT test in reading comprehension, vocabulary development, and all areas of language arts. I set up and directed an after-school tutoring program for K-7th grades to help students needing help with organizational and study skill, test-taking techniques and appropriate academic support. Success was reflected in higher test scores, improved grades and increased self-confidence.
Teaching in an inspiring and positive teaching style, I have special talent to explain and to clarify difficult concepts in a variety of ways that effecti ... read more
