Brandon: Gaston County tutor
Certified Tutor
I am a graduate of the University of Pittsburgh. I received my Bachelor of Arts in Environmental Studies with a Spanish minor and a Geographic Information Systems (GIS) certificate. I have been teaching and tutoring in a number of different capacities for about 10 years, since I was in high school. I started out as a volunteer, walking over to the middle school at the end of the day to assist students who needed help with their classwork. As a high achieving student in high school math, a teacher paired me up to work one on one with a younger student to help them with their algebra 1 homework. During college I continued seeking out tutoring opportunities. I volunteered at the local Saturday Morning Tutoring sessions held at a nearby church, where K-12 students from surrounding communities would come to get help with their homework. Later, I privately tutored a 5th grade student in all subjects, from science and social studies to reading and english. My most intensive teaching/tutoring experience is from earlier this year, where I served as an AmeriCorps member for six months assisting underserved elementary school students with homework after school. This past summer I led a crew of high school students at a National Wildlife Refuge, teaching them about invasive plants, ecology, and how to maintain trails.

Being active outdoors and learning about nature are the things that bring me the most joy. I'm currently employed as a park ranger, so I love sharing information about the natural world we all share and how to best protect it. I also enjoy reading, animals, soccer, and practicing Spanish.
