I have been a French and Spanish teacher for 25 years. I especially like to fire my students up to want to learn. One of my favorite activities is travel.

Math and Science Problem Solving For All Experience Levels

- Port Matilda , Pennsylvania ( 16870 )
- 15 miles
Throughout my education, I’ve tried a lot of study strategies. I’ve found that what works best for me is not reading or lectures, but conversation. That knowledge is what informs my tutoring approach. I talk to my students until I can focus down to the core of their understanding, then I build out until they have a confident grasp on the material. I began tutoring as an undergraduate at the University of Rochester, where I worked as a Teaching Assistant for some introductory geology courses. ... Read more
