Experience
As an educator, it is important for me that students realize that the skills they learn in the classroom will also be useful in the world as they grow up. I have eighteen years of experience as a teacher and tutor, with a particular focus on high school students. I taught career and tech education classes to high schoolers for a decade, worked as an in-home teacher for homebound students, and as a substitute teacher in a variety of classes. I always support my students by reinforcing their curiosity and skills, and I try to learn how each of my students learns as an individual. I want them to receive positive reinforcement and feel engaged in their own education. Being a tutor lets me spend time with each student one-on-one so I can get to know their learning style. I can tutor students in mathematics at all levels, vocabulary, reading skills, grammar and mechanics, literature, business, economics, accounting, government, essay writing, and standardized and college test preparation for the SAT and ACT. I can also help music students with flute or piano lessons. In my spare time, I like to read, listen to and play music, and spend time with my family.
