" Originally from Cut Off, Louisiana, I grew up in a bilingual community. As I aged I had difficulties with my writing because my English education was French inflected. Therefore, I was tutored to improve my writing abilities. Having been through this very positive tutoring experience, I feel I am particularly attune to students in my tutoring sessions, since I experienced the often challenging or stressful, but ultimately fun and rewarding, tutoring process. After being tutored myself, I have tutored and taught high school and college students on both a professional and personal level in Louisiana, Mississippi, and DC." ...

"Just as the activity of teaching is not limited to the teacher, the activity of learning is not limited to the student. There is always an exchange between what the teacher and student have to offer.
I believe it is best to show, rather than tell students how to work their way through the task at hand, whether it be a problem or a prompt. I know that there is not always one way to solve a problem or answer a prompt, so I am always open and patient with students as we walk through that process.."
