" Before the Peace Corps I graduated from Middlebury College in Vermont with a Bachelors Degree in Economics where I studied Micro and Macro Economics and Regression Analysis as well as Math and Spanish. My mother is from Spain and my father is from the United States, therefore I grew up speaking both English and Spanish fluently at home and in school. I love to meet new people, work with both children, youth and adults and teach and tutor in a very interactive and social manner, working through problems and homework with students, teaching through practice and studying alongside the student in a very social direct way.." ...

After several extensive trips to China (including 6 months as an exchange student at Xiamen University) I also know how much fun there is to be had, not to mention the plethora of opportunities that come with speaking Mandarin well. The Chinese have a saying: One more friend, one more road. So allow me to call upon my experiences in learning the language and culture to guide you along the road to proficiency in Mandarin Chinese.

" As a result of such diverse opportunities, I’ve gained the patience, creativity, and experience needed to be a successful tutor in almost any subject.
