I have guided many students, both gifted and remedial, as...

...I am particularly passionate about working with students who have diverse learning styles or needs that are not adequately supported in the traditional education system. As someone with ADHD, I understand how frustrating and isolating it can be to try to succeed in an environment that wasn't designed with you in mind. Education should not be one-size-fits-all. My goal is to empower each student by collaborating to create effective academic strategies that leverage their unique...

My tutoring style is revolved around getting to know the student. I focus strongly to build a connection with my students to allow them to feel comfortable and happy to be...

...we would often read newspaper articles together and then have a discussion about that article during which I would correct their accent or grammar. For other students that had little knowledge of a language, I would develop my own course using a specific curriculum based on their level. Sometimes, speaking only the language to create an "immersion" aspect is very helpful. I can very easily adapt based on the needs of each individual student.... Every student...

...primarily Calculus, Differential Equations, and Linear Algebra. I would describe my tutoring style as fun and adaptive. I understand that while a majority of students struggle with Math, making it fun usually helps take away many of these struggles, as well as limits a student from becoming bored or disinterested in the subject. I also know that each student learns differently, being able to adapt to each students current learning style only helps make them...

...university studies I provided tutoring in English, ESL, Writing, and Humanities (Art, History, Literature, etc), and after graduation I spent a year teaching English to young learners in France.

...explore their interests and hone their writing skills in English, but I am also here to help learners of French as well. I studied abroad in Poitiers, France, which was one of the most enlightening and fantastic experiences in my life.

In my spare time, I love reading science fiction and...

...students first. No matter what a district will demand, my students come first. When a students mental health is addressed and answered for, their identity validated, learning flows like no other. We are programmed to learn, excited to learn, sometimes we just have to convince the students that the material they are to learn is pertinent to them. This have proven true, no matter the age of population. This idea has always remained true; treat...

...me then, it follows that fostering global awareness and multi-cultural respect must be essential educational practices in my ESL classes. As a prelude, I always ask a student on the first day of class to write a little about his/her cultural/linguistic backgrounds, foreign language studies, travels to foreign countries, problems with other cultures, and goals in studying English. These profiles provide valuable insights from which I can then further develop and design lesson plans which...

I sat in on lectures and provided weekly and occasionally bi-weekly assistance outside of class at the college's Math and Science Skills Center.
