Hello everyone! My official teaching and tutoring began well into my adult years. Since my childhood, I feel I have been in the role of a teacher. I grew up in a Dominican/Cuban household hearing and speaking Spanish, so even then, I taught my grandmother English while she taught me Spanish. While working as a Center Director in afterschool programming in Washington, DC, I taught and tutored middle school students, for six years, in English, Math, Social Studies, and Science. I supported s... Read more

Tamara
Published Author, Teach for America Alumna, and Experienced Tutor
I am a Pepperdine University graduate with a joint degree in International Studies and Spanish. I'm a bubbly, outgoing person that enjoys helping others learn and perform at their max! I'm all about fixing unproductive learning environments, helping students get organized, and getting to the bottom of low performance. More times than not, I find the best solution to poor grades is by boosting a student's self-confidence first, and then introducing them to the tools that will make them more su... Read more

Patient Social Worker willing to go the extra mile to help you succeed

- College Park , Maryland ( 20740 )
- 20 miles
I am a social worker with over 20 years' experience working with children. I have enjoyed tutoring in both the home setting and the after school classroom. Regardless of the subject, I find the most effective way to achieve positive results is to first determine what type of learner a child is, whether visual or auditory. Based on experience I have learned some students learn better when information is presented to them visually and some learn better when things can be explained thoroughly. ... Read more
