I am currently in my second year at Columbia University getting my Master's Degree in Social Work with the hopes of becoming a school social worker. Prior to my time at Columbia University, I was a teacher in Denver, CO and then Baltimore, MD. While teaching in Baltimore, I also got my Master's in Education from Johns Hopkins University. I am sincerely passionate about working with youth and have extensive experience teaching elementary school math and ELA.

I thoroughly enjoy spending time with kids of all ages. It is important to see the uniqueness in every individual because as you discover each persons traits, you can know what it takes to help them to succeed. This is my approach to instruction. I received my Masters degree in Education with a Reading Endorsement and my Bachelors degree in Special Education with a minor in Elementary Education from Arizona State University. I have experience as a teacher in public and private education. I also have experience with tutoring in home settings and in an online learning lab.Mentoring is also something that I enjoy and it has become a way of life for me. I worked for a mentoring program called MentorKids USA where I supervised mentors, connected with families and planned activities. In addition, I have experience in working with students of other cultures, since my most recent position was teaching high school students who had come to the United States as refugees. In this position, I helped them to complete their high school diplomas. I have also assisted many students in going on to higher education, so I have become very accomplished at editing university papers as well.Although I was born in California, I am almost an Arizona native. I enjoy the diversity of this state and I enjoy outdoor activities like hiking, biking and skiing. Traveling is also something I enjoy and I have been to many countries throughout the world. I also enjoy reading and crafts, but mostly I enjoy spending time with children, youth and young adults; teaching, mentoring and encouraging them in various ways.

I love tutoring students. Whether it's family, friends, or new students, I've had experiences with all different types of learners which has helped me grow as a tutor and become more flexible through experimenting and developing different teaching modes. In high school, learning to manage my time helped me dissect my learning style which resulted in more efficient and effective study methods. I joined Varsity Tutors because I want to help students not only maximize, but exceed their potential.Outside of academics, I enjoy watching and playing sports, listening to and writing and music, and hanging out with family and friends.

I am an Old Dominion University graduate with a bachelor's degree in Civil Engineering Technology. I am also currently working to get my certification in teaching. I was a teacher and teacher assistant for a private school in Virginia for about 2 years. During that time I worked with students of all ages but my primary focus was elementary school age children. While I am able to tutor a wide range of subjects, my primary subject of choice is Math for all grades as well as Pre-Algebra, Algebra 1, and Statistics. I am passionate about helping students reach their goal of a better education and I love to see them understanding new subjects or subjects that they may have previously struggled in. Education is important for everyone and I hope to make it fun and enjoyable for those I tutor.

I am a graduate from The University of Connecticut. I received my Bachelor of Science and Masters of Arts in Special Education with a focus in Math. Since graduation, I have taught seven years as a special education teacher in an elementary school, tutored students after school in reading and math, at home tutoring, and ran a program for high school credit recovery in that district. My favorite subject to tutor is reading because reading lays the foundation for all other learning. I am passionate about instilling the love of learning in others and I use that passion to help students become successful not only in what I am teaching but in life as well. I think it is critical to have confidence in what you are doing and feel pride in your accomplishments. In my spare time, I love to cook, read, scrapbook, and cheer on my Uconn Huskies basketball and football teams.

I graduated from Prescott College with a Bachelor of Arts Degree and teaching certificate in Elementary Education K-8. I received my ELL Endorsement for K-12 and my Early Childhood Endorsement for birth- age 8. I also did the majority of my undergraduate work at the University of Arizona with a major in Economics and a minor in Sociology. I taught first grade for 15 years and did my student teaching and volunteer work in 3rd grade. I have also raised my own three children who are now in high school, college and graduated as an RN. While I am able to tutor a broad range of subjects and grades, I am most passionate in working with kids on their foundational skills in Reading, Writing and Math. I do also have a strong background in Phonics. I absolutely love teaching and helping kids develop a love of learning. I enjoy seeing students have successes in their educational journey and helping them reach those successes. I love being a part of the process of helping kids master a concept that may have previously been a struggle for them. I feel that reading is the foundation for all of us and have taken pride in being an integral part of my previous students successes in reading. In my previous teaching experience, I have been a Special Education cluster teacher as well as an ELL cluster teacher. I have worked with students that have developmental delays, IEPs, 504s, speech and language delays, gifted students as well as students in the mainstream classroom. I also feel that it is important to hold high standards for our children as they can many times achieve goals we/they never thought possible.
