After getting my biology degree I found that I wasn't sure what I wanted to do in biology. However, one thing was certain, I liked to explain and teach. I had played volleyball for some time, so I began by coaching volleyball and eventually went back to school for my masters in science education. I've been coaching volleyball for many years, and my most recent adventure was as a classroom teacher at a private school in Las Vegas. The classroom was great, except that I found that I p...

Recently, I took a brief hiatus from tutoring to complete coursework toward a teaching credential. I earned a 4.0 GPA in my core curriculum courses, and learned a lot about how to tailor instruction to the needs of individual students. However, I have decided to continue to work as a tutor, because of the potential to assist students in goal achievement despite personal challenges. I have seen up close how much K-12 students need positive role models and encouragement, as well as how they of... Read more
