During college, I tutored a local high-school student who was struggling in her chemistry class. Right away we developed a productive working relationship and in almost no time my student's grades improved significantly - she went from receiving below average scores to As. My student, her mother and I were beside ourselves with delight - I would absolutely love the opportunity to reproduce these results with other students. I am a strong believer in starting with a student's strengths, build... Read more

Comprehensive Writing Instruction Made Easy!
My interest in teaching lies in my desire to empower anyone who is in a learning environment. Over the years I have tutored college students, I often encounter students who are struggling with their self-confidence as much as they are with where to place a semi-colon. By meeting the learner where they are in the process of writing, I learned that it is much easier for a student to grasp a concept, exercise their knowledge and master a challenge when they felt supported. Perhaps more importan... Read more

My teaching style is encouraging, caring, and flexible. In my 21 years of teaching, I have learned how to take children from what they know to what they want to know.
