...to perform research at a major university. I enjoy the way that understanding Accounting is similar to understanding how the pieces of a puzzle are put together. As a teacher, I am able to make Accounting more tangible. I also enjoy test prep. I have placed above the 90th percentile on the ACT and GMAT tests, and I look forward to teaching students not only the materials that are on these tests but also test taking...

...appreciation in the students that I work with. I believe that this passion is essential for effective learning to happen, namely learning should never be rote memorization that fades away after an exam but something that persists and ultimately grows. I always have fun tutoring: I try my best to make it enjoyable, be it outlining an essay, understanding the critical content of a passage or preparing for Standardized Tests. I am flexible, patient and...

...most important to them--whether it's preparing for a test, revising their writing, or simply practicing their conversational skills. I especially enjoy helping students with the early stages of non-L1 language acquisition (in either English, Spanish, or German).

All the way up to High School, I worked hard, and tried, and failed to excel in Math. I excelled in all my other subjects, but Math was a different beast. In High School, I resolved to give Math...

...interesting and relevant. Students have told me I am kind, approachable, and encourage a sense of openness in the classroom. I have seen firsthand, over and over, how beneficial one-on-one tutoring is to a student, and am excited to share that experience with you. In my free time, you can find me at the dog park with my two dogs, attending band concerts of my two middle school children, and making pottery in my backyard...

...and high school teacher getting back into private tutoring after taking a break to get my M.Ed. in Special Education. I have over a decade of experience working in education, in both one-on-one and classroom settings.

If I'm not in the pool swimming or at work, you can probably find me either curled up...

I am a singer and I plan to minor in music. I also love...

...for both mechanical errors and content expression. I have spent the past six years tutoring and have become intensely passionate about helping students love school as much as I do. Outside of academia, I am passionate about soccer. I played soccer at Mesa Community College and club soccer at Arizona State University. Now I play in an adult co-ed league and coach middle school soccer, high school soccer, and club soccer. Ultimately, I would like...
