...Aix-en-Provence, France. I have had the opportunity to tutor students in French, Spanish, and Math from a wide range of ages and learning styles, including university students with disabilities. My favorite part about tutoring are the "Oh, I get it!" moments after a student struggles, making the effort worthwhile. I believe each student has potential to grow. The role of an effective tutor is to believe in the student, have patience and awareness to better...

As the former Assistant Superintendent of a large metropolitan school district, I am very aware of the tools, strategies, and techniques needed to master a variety of subjects and the learning tools that will facilitate learning and the acquisition of new skills.

I graduated as the valedictorian of my high school and received admissions to many prestigious schools around the country, but due to financial reasons I decided to attend a school where I could support myself.
