When I'm not in the classroom, I'm probably spending time with my wife and son (born Sept 2012). Both are my pride and joy. Sports is another passion of mine - baseball, football, basketball, you name it (excited for the start of March Madness and baseball season!). I also enjoy going to movies, cooking (Cajun -...

...cook, and watch sports with my friends (go saints!). My favorite thing to talk about is food and I can make some pretty awesome homemade mac & cheese.

My goal as a tutor here on Varsity is to learn each students particular learning style. This helps us both achieve their educational goals in ways that are enjoyable, and where the information is retained not just memorized temporarily,

...learned so much about myself and subject areas by tutoring, and that helps me give even more to my students. I believe learning is at it's fullest when it is a collaborative experience. Although there are times when I need to directly provide information as a tutor (and to give students tools for retaining that information), I prefer to guide and question to help students find the way to the answer themselves. I believe that...

...programs have helped me grow into the teacher that I am today!

I have been lucky to teach 1st, 2nd, 4th and 5th grade. I have also had the opportunity to teach Physical Education and Technology. Working with a variety of age groups has allowed me to connect different...

...and to see, acknowledge, and celebrate your whole self. As an educator, it is my responsibility to build and facilitate a learning environment that helps you discover a sustained investment in learning, curiosity, and intellectual growth in whatever area or areas ignite your passion or make you feel most alive. I commit to being flexible, trusting you, and supporting you toward the future you envision for yourself. I hope we can learn together!

...child. Another strength of mine is paper and essay writing - I loved it when professors would assign a term paper instead of an exam as our midterm or final! I think college entrance essays, particularly, can be overwhelming and stressful to the student. I believe that by tackling them with a logical approach and a solid action plan, these essays do not have to be such a source of anxiety. I also have experience...

...parents, I made my way through elementary school and soon discovered that I was gifted! (Imagine that!) After the 5th grade, school became easier in a lot of ways. I began to excel academically and remained at the top of my class all the way through graduate school. When people look at me, they would never guess that I could not read until the 3rd grade or write until the 4th grade. As a teacher,...

...appreciate working with other people to help them achieve their goals. I am working as a tutor part-time while I prepare to enter a masters degree program in Urban Planning at UCLA in the fall of 2016. I will be in the Baltimore area until early August, at which point I will move to Los Angeles. Tutoring struck me as an exciting and enriching way to support myself while getting to meet and work with...

I've been teaching, tutoring, and helping people develop their potential and skills since I was seventeen, when I began sharing Shakespeare with children. I've worked with students from preschool to adult, in settings from community centers, churches, and university. I delight in seeing someone master a concept and increase their self-esteem.

I have also worked in politics, education policy and research, which has given me experience of using a variety of communication and...

I am most passionate about helping students become great writers...

I believe that while everyone learns differently, everyone is capable of learning. It's important that we use all opportunities to not only learn, but share in that learning with other individuals. I'm here to watch that lightbulb of understanding turn on for as many people as possible.

...in Education. I am a first grade educator in the city of Baltimore. I find educating to be the most enjoyable work there is. I am a fun-loving, free spirited individual.

I educate through song, dance, art, and any other medium necessary. I take the time to...
