"As a tutor, I prefer to address students for the unique people they are. This interpersonal approach allows me to assess and evaluate students’ academic strengths and weaknesses vis-à-vis their own personalities, interests, and most importantly, learning needs. I do not simply seek to impart or prepare, but rather to take advantage of the opportunity to form a substantive, intimate bond with individual students and help them to assimilate knowledge and concepts in meaningful ways that resonate with them personally.

" I graduated from the University of South Dakota with a BSED (Bachelor of Science in Education) in Mathematics. I have experience with teaching in South Dakota, Wyoming, Kansas, and a DoDD's school.
My student teaching experience was in England in a DoDD's school. I taught Geometry and Algebra I. I enjoyed the classes where I was able to teach students in a more one-on-one environment.
After graduating, I got a job as a high school Mathematics teacher in a small town in Wyoming."

"Watching someone learn, understand, and grow and knowing that you've helped in that process is incredibly fulfilling.
My teaching style is very easy to work with. I like to see what the students know first, then work with them in a way that builds upon their strengths while tackling their weaknesses, so that they never feel left behind or confused. It's very important to me for the students to understand and be comfortable with the material, and I'd never want to push something on them that they're not ready for."

" Teaching people to read and write is one of my favorite activities. I have taught or tutored in many different arenas, from high school teaching and tutoring to legal intern and lawyer training, and from summer camps and after-school programs to caring for my elementary-and-toddler-aged nieces and nephew. Currently, I teach high school math, science, English, social studies, and theater arts when those classroom teachers aren't available. That's right. I'm a substitute teacher so that I can tutor in the evenings instead of lesson planning and grading." ...
