Ruth

Certified Tutor

I am an Alumni of Pacific Lutheran University (PLU) at a small liberal arts college. I obtained my Bachelors of Science in Psychology which prepared me to work in a variety of fields. I am currently working towards becoming a certified American Sign Language (ASL) interpreter, I just completed my first year. My goal is to become NIC certified through RID. I am also passionate about working with a variety of students from a variety of backgrounds. I have worked with ESL students from around the world remotely for two years.
My goal when working with someone is to meet their needs and focus on what a person is knowledgeable about first and then focus on where they need to improve. My favorite subjects to tutor are English, ASL, and Creative Writing. My philosophy when teaching is, it is okay to make mistakes and, it is vital to try new ways of approaching a subject.
When I have the chance, my hobbies are hiking, camping, swimming, kayaking with my family. I also enjoy playing video games and creating artistic makeup looks.
