I make it a habit to read as much as possible. Unfortunately, reading books has taken a backseat to TV in recent years. I always liked playing up my quirky personality. My favorite teachers and professors were the goofy ones, the ones who can relate to the students' fun side. These teachers also challenged me the most, and I ended up getting so much more out of the course. I figure that, if a student likes the teacher, he or she will pay more attention and have a deeper respect for the teacher. The teacher then can use this trust to push the student a little more, intellectually. I find that is what works best for me. I don't any paid, professional tutoring experience. However, I have volunteered my services to family members and friends. During my sophomore year, I took Organic Chemistry and excelled. However, my friends were struggling. They hated me a bit for how easy it came to me.

This really depends on what the student seems to need. Some people are visual learners, others auditory, kinesthetic, etc. It is critical to ASK THE STUDENT what works for them! I've practiced law, worked in broadcasting, public relations and business. I love writing and am currently working on a libretto for a musical theatre piece. I also enjoy working with young women in a non-profit here in Austin, Texas. I love to work with creative and unusual passionate people!
