Before I graduated from college, I had experience as an editorial cartoonist for the Ranger at San Antonio College for one semester, lab monitor at Texas State for a year (my first tutoring job), and I interned for the Mighty Group in San Antonio for the summer semester. Since 2007, I have been practicing graphic/web design as a freelancer. This allowed me to teach clients how to update their website, taught a college student how to pass her basic website building class, and flexibility to be an art teacher assistant with MyArtStarz.

I want to bring out the potential of the student by learning their strengths and weaknesses and hone in on how we can solve problems together. That is what design is all about, stating the problem and figuring out the most effective solution. It can be challenging at times, but the solution is always there. I want to show students how graphic and web design can be a fun and rewarding journey. I have a Bachelors of Fine Art in Photography from Texas Woman's University in Denton, TX, and an Associates in Interactive Design Specialization from Austin Community College.

I'm an easy going teacher, software and design requires patience in both the student and teacher. It is a show and tell, where you will be explaining yourself repeatedly. I feel the best teachers, show the student what they expect, and have the student both verbally and by demonstration show they understand the processes. If they can't verbally walk me through it, it hasn't sunk in and they won't be able to repeat the lesson when I'm not around. I don't want that, I'm paid to make sure that isn't the case.

My teaching style is to do whatever works, and to get it done. I pride myself on working with my students on their level and being able to understand their personal barrier to grasping the material. I am very conscious of not imposing upon them the way it "should be done". The way it should be done is whatever way makes sense to them and as a tutor, I work hard to find this "way". I have developed the patience to work with students at their pace and to also challenge them to expand their boundaries. Ultimately, patience and persistence are what can be used to summarize my teaching style. I have been tutoring since 2006 and have covered a broad range of subjects during my time. My tutoring experience ranges from helping elementary students prepare for private school entrance exams to tutoring college students in math, english, economics, and history and everything in between.
