Marlen: Bethesda tutor

Certified Tutor

Great teachers are those who enjoy the process of learning themselves. They become so passionate about the subject matter that they can't wait to make others master it. I had been a straight A student as long as I remember. While in school, I was a member of Phi Beta Kappa, Golden Key Honor Society and a recipient of the Presidential Award. I was also one of the top students in Business school where I received my MBA. When others ask me how did I manage to do so well in school, my reply is that I simply enjoy the process of learning. I transferred this passion to all of my students whom I tutor in my spare time. As a result of my teaching methods, all of them had noticed significant improvements in their GPA, and many of them have even become honors students. I am a firm believer that each person requires a different approach and I adapt my communication style to deliver my message effectively. While I can tutor a broad range of subjects, I specialize in General Math, Algebra, Geometry and Languages (Russian, Spanish) because I am very passionate about these subjects. And nothing gives me more pleasure than seeing my students excel in their studies.
