Diverse background with ability to adapt learning

I have always been a very curious and academic person. I love to learn and like to pass that on to my students. It makes it easier because I have really lived a lot of the things I teach. I grew up in a small town in Idaho and excelled in both my Math and Science classes. At 16 I decided I needed to see the world so I moved to Argentina as an exchange student. I spent a year learning both the culture and language of the country. I was able to travel a lot and really felt like a member of their society. I returned and finished my senior year of high school. I was in the top 10% of my class at graduation with a 3.8GPA. After a 4 month stay in Argentina again I was off to college to study Business and Spanish at Louisiana State University. I excelled in my Spanish and loved being in business. During my junior year I spent 6 months in Costa Rica, and a month in Peru continuing m ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I have had the unique opportunity throughout college to tutor in various areas. I was very active within a vocal performance group and had the opportunity to assist in public speaking venues frequently. I got the opportunity to assist in a fourth grade classroom, emphasizing the importance of public speaking. I just returned from a semester teaching (English) in Seoul, South Korea. I have a passion for words, for communication and above all, for understanding.
I am energetic and relevant. I feel personal wins when my students grasp an idea or concept I am trying to get them to understand. I choose to work creatively and effectively. I embrace challenges and love investing my life into the education of others.

I believe that every child has different and unique learning abilities. I feel that the use of examples make it easier for a child to learn and retain information. I strive to make every child feel as if they have the ability to accomplish anything they put their mind to.
While in high school I tutored elementary students in all subjects. Included were language arts, math, and sciences. I also have experience with private tutoring in Asia with teaching students English.

I believe that to get what you want in life, you simply need to help as many people get want they want in life. I am a firm believer in the abundance mentality, and if I can help a student overcome their barriers to learning then I am giving of my skills to help someone get to where they want to be. AS far as actual teaching styles go, I am demonstrative when necessary but always aiming to be more of a delegator to allow f ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Education is of utmost importance to me, and I believe that all children can learn, but some lack the study skills necessary to succeed in school. While in pursuit of my psychology major at Converse College, I attended various classes and seminars on learning styles. I feel that each child has its own potential, and if we as educators can empower students to feel as though they can succeed, great things happen.
During my undergraduate studies, I was selected the Departmental Tutor for French language by the Converse College Foreign Language Department. I also taught an entry-level French "drill" class for four years throughout my undergraduate experience. For three years after my graduation from college, I worked with at-risk youth as a wilderness instructor, and also a behavior modification specialist. During my work with at-risk youth, I also tutored such subjects as science, ... read more

I believe that anyone can turn a difficult subject into a fun and easy subject with a little help and motivation. Learning isn't always linear, sometimes it takes a little understanding and a helping hand to push through the educational roadblocks that we encounter. I bring a caring and understanding voice to those who can't always figure it out on their own. I'm a strong believer in the word "can". You can do it, but you may need a boost to get that initial understanding. Once you get that, your on your way to success.
I began tutoring as an undergrad at the University of California, while completing my BA in Economics. I gained invaluable experience tutoring the Advanced English-Core class for incoming freshman on an individual basis. My studies and work experience in Finance, Engineering, and Design have allowed me to add expertise in these subjects to my existing writing ... read more
