I received a BA in International Relations and Economics from the University of Wisconsin-Madison, and more recently completed my MBA program at the University of Southern California. My business school classmates and I took pride in offering group tutoring in subjects such as stats, economics, finance, etc., and I still feel ardently that the best way to fully understand a subject is to teach it! I have years of...

...can understand a concept that had been confusing before. I coach volleyball at the eighth grade level, and have done so for more than ten years - it's a great activity to develop confidence and teamwork. I come from a large family- -12 brothers and sisters - and like to make people laugh. Even when we are doing homework! I always find out what the student knows, and what might be confusing before starting to...

...teaching, nothing I enjoy more is seeing the look on a child's face when they finally understand a new concept. My philosophy is that as an educator I must do everything, I can for each of my students to reach their highest potential. The word "can't" is not in my vocabulary. I now have students that have graduated high school and are attending college come visit me and tell me, "Thank you for believing in...

...and getting girls interested in Math and Science. I have an informal, friendly teaching style. I like to show students that they CAN do physics and math, even if they have a mental block that says they're "bad at it" or "just can't do it."

Additionally I have taught English grammar, reading, and conversational skills to ESL students in Chicago, Ecuador, and Colombia. While I tutor a number of subjects, I particularly enjoy helping students with standardized test strategy and following their scores as they increase towards their goal. When I tutor, I aim to lead students to an answer by example so that they can see the...

...and enjoy making the best of the experience. I was a National Merit Finalist for the PSAT. I am a firm proponent of peer-to-peer learning and the importance of a strong education. I hope not only to assist with your academic needs, but also to inspire critical thinking and challenge you to become a better student! Outside of my career pursuits and tutoring, I enjoy crocheting, painting, blogging and watching too much Netflix.

...in differentiated instruction, literacy data analysis and coaching other teachers. I believe that very child deserves an equitable educational experience; conversely, this does not mean that every child deserves the same educational experience. Effective teachers must be able to assess the needs of diverse students and provide the appropriate supports that will allow that student access to the content. If a child receives support for his or her needs, then that child should be able...

In addition to standardized test preparation, I enjoy tutoring a variety of academic subjects spanning the humanities, mathematics, and the sciences.
