Each student is special to me. Therefore, I will not give up until "they get it"! Each of us learns in "our own way" so I will find the best way for you, and yours, to learn. That is, if students don't already know how they learn best, I'll figure it out! Teaching is my life! I've been doing it all my life. In high school, I belonged to "Future Teachers."

ADD/ADHD
One of my sons has ADHD and the other has ADD. I helped them all the way through school to learn to cope with and compensate for it. In order to be able to help them, I researched and studied the two conditions, their challenges, and methods for teaching them to compensate for and/or overcome the learning disabilities that accompany (are inevitably a part of) ADD/ADHD. My years of hard work paid off in that both of my sons went to College. It turned out that both are very knowledgeable in the sciences and particularly skilled in math/electronics/computer science. The one with ADHD prefers robotics and more solitary endeavors; whereas, the other, ADD, is very outgoing and headed for a Phd and the world of Academia. I believe that I have a great deal to offer others with similar issues.

Sherry doesn't just know Spanish; she has a very in depth understanding of it! This is a great help when trying to learn the language because instead of just memorizing a long list of words and phrases, it allows you to develop an understanding of why you are saying things in a certain way. I have learned from experience that just knowing a lot of Spanish words is not enough. There is also correct pronunciation, tense, and verbiage, which are very essential.
