I am very comfortable tutoring students from elementary age through high school in math, reading, writing and Spanish. I have also had experien... Read more

English, Elementary Education, Business, Martial Arts, and Theatre
I tutor both children and adults in a number of subjects. My approach to tutoring is to first identify what the student needs, and then quickly implement a tutoring strategy that will work best for the student. People effectively learn through different methods since learning is not a “one method fits all people†phenomenon. Hence, I’m flexible and I enjoy tutoring because it provides an opportunity to work one on one with the student, as opposed to just giving a lecture to a classroom of st... Read more
