...educator with a strong commitment to fostering the physical, intellectual, and social development of children through a holistic learning approach. That means for me, learning isn't just about completing work and getting the right answers, its more than that!

Outside of education, I love to listen to music, travel,...

I am a tutor, but I am also a mentor. While I believe education is of utmost importance, I also believe a student needs to find value in their education. I don't tutor to help students get the assignment done, I tutor to help develop respect for learning.

...Each child has a different relationship with language, and improving that relationship is impossible without first understanding it. English isn't just a subject taught in school; it's how we access the people and ideas around us. As a tutor, my goal is not only to prepare students for the tests and essays that will be used to evaluate them, but also to give them the skills they need to prosper as members of an English-speaking...

However, I battled through these struggles to become a straight A student in college (at...

I believe that all students deserve an equal opportunity, therefore when I teach students I think that accommodation and differentiation is the most important aspect. Each student learns and comprehends information in different ways, therefore every student should be considered when a teacher/tutor creates lessons and conveys information.

I am an experienced tutor and teacher in a wide variety of subjects who specializes in student-centered, personalized learning.... I believe you need to meet students where they are, match your teaching style to their personal interests, and let them have a role in setting their goals. Learning is something a student does with a teacher's help, not something a teacher does to a student.... Ask them what they like and don't like about the subject,...

I have taught first-year college students, as well as worked...

...of my tutoring sessions as light and humorous as I can. I was fortunate to have the opportunity to tutor Spanish for three-and-a-half years during college. I tutored students ranging from seasoned Spanish speakers to those who had never taken a Spanish course before. While I admit that I have an unusual knack for learning languages, I understand the amount of hard work required to master a language even with that knack. I wholeheartedly believe...

...uncles supported me while obtaining my education in New York City. It is my belief that a highly motivated student can accomplish any academic goal(s) s/he puts their mind to. Learning is a process; concepts build on each other. Knowledge mastery is a goal the student strives towards. As a tutor, I hope to guide, support, and encourage the student to think critically and analytically about her or his education inside and outside the classroom...

...something new to the material, whether it was a section from Descartes they'd read twenty times before, or a new essay on nationalism that came out last week, they could always find something new in the material. When they had trouble understanding the material, I could ask them questions about what they thought was accurate or false in the essay. I could ask why they thought that way. I could show the student how they...
