I also work for another company called United Cerebral Palsy of Southern Arizona helping individuals with special needs with items such as social skills and academic skills in real life situations. I enjoy incorporating aspects of Art in my teaching/tutoring as well as many hands-on experiences. I try to create lessons/activities that would work for a variety of leaners (visual, tactile/kinesthetic, auditory, etc). I feel that in order to truly understand...

...English and Russian (with a minor in Pre-Med), but I have been active in accumulating useful experience in editing and writing scientific and nonfiction content.

...friend in school who organized study groups and made sure my friends passed; at work I always end up as primary trainer, and in my free time I enjoy teaching youth and adults my hobbies: organic gardening, solar cooking, yoga, playing guitar, singing and beekeeping. My real passion is languages. I never tire of teaching Mandarin Chinese, Spanish or my native tongue, English (especially writing). Given these subjects, it may be surprising to learn that...

...how important finding just the right word can be and I bring my passion for language to each and every student I tutor.

...and then be quizzed on them day after day. I like the challenge of creating innovative and creative methods to teach my students the information they are required to know. It's one of my favorite parts of tutoring. Outside of academia, I love to read and write. I'm a complete bibliophile and also an author myself. My first book came out last month and I am not hoping to be admitted to a graduate program to...

I thoroughly enjoy writing and math, which is why they are my favorite subjects to tutor. When I...

...strong in a one-on-one setting. Primarily that's because I really like people. A lot. I see things from the student's point of view, and that helps me to tutor in a way that is individualized for each student. As a high school and middle school substitute teacher and as an instructor at the North Carolina Governor's School I found that I enjoy teaching students at all levels, from middle school through advanced undergraduate. I tutor...

...I have worked in many different positions where my teaching was needed to benefit students. Some of those positions have included 5th grade teacher, 7th grade ELA teacher, HS Algebra teacher, assistant principal, principal, and learning support coordinator. In addition to the titles that I have held, working with students to help them understand a concept is extremely rewarding, so I have continued to tutor throughout my career. I am also the mother of three...

I have tutored 2nd-8th grade children in the past at St. Michael's, Davis, and in schools in Mexico and Costa Rica as well. I have volunteered and taught lessons in 2nd-4th grade classes for the past 2 years...
