...strengths. I began taking standardized tests with the ITBS in kindergarten and took at least one per year through grade school including ten AP exams and the PSAT with which I became a National Merit Scholar.

I am an aspiring expert in this puzzle that we call English. I believe that the English language is the most creative creole to ever be created.

...aids and diagrams. I also have an ability to motivate students to think for themselves by asking stimulating questions ("Okay, we know Mt. Everest is closer to the equator than Rome, yet it's still colder than Rome. But what else is different about the two that could explain why that's the case?"). Finally, I've found that the best way to facilitate learning is to highlight easily understandable parallels to the content being studied. For example,...

...bound to improve automatically. I have also taken a great liking to US History. Organization is my middle name, so getting your child organized is definitely one of my major strong suits. Although I have my Masters, I continue to take classes. I try to instill in my students that learning is an ongoing process, and I lead by example.

...then became a first time mom to a beautiful baby girl, named Kayleigh. This is where my passion for teaching grew even more. During, Kayleigh's earlier years, I was able to observe the life of a child's development entirely and begin to educate her to be a well rounded student.

...they arise. I hate memorizing, and would much prefer to make everything from Biology to History into exciting (if very small) stories that are not only easy to remember, but actively difficult to forget. I've had tutors that I hated going to, and tutors that I enjoyed spending my time with, and I do my best to emulate the latter. And, as always, I'm happy with your results when you are happy with your results....
