About Me

I have been a Literacy Tutor for the past five years, including one year with Americorps/Reading Corps MN. I have been trained several times through the extensive program within the Americorps/Reading Corps training process. My primary location for tutoring was at Crest View Elementary in Brooklyn Park, MN.I have tutored many students in grades varying from kindergarten to sixth grade; however, my main focus was tutoring students in the grades kindergarten through third grade. I believe that we can help our children excel with learning how to read when obstacles arise when resources are not easily available. I am here to help your child surpass their own expectations of not being able to read as fluently as expected. My favorite subject to tutor/teach is Literacy. I believe that each child deserves the opportunity to learn how to read at any given moment of their life. The primary focus for our education system is that each child is learning how to read in first, second, and third grade. Students are reading to learn at the fourth grade level and beyond. It is very important for each child to read at or beyond the appropriate grade level so each student can process the information that is being provided. My tutoring/teaching philosophy is strictly focused on unity in regard to each child beginning to progress within their reading abilities. I also promote positive learning, to stimulate eagerness for learning, and to also provide a strong foundation for lifelong learning. My tutoring/teaching style is focused on creating an environment where the student and myself are working together on the same linear line in regard to reading each passage, while then allowing each student to read independently to showcase what they have learned. I have many interests outside of tutoring including the following: writing, painting, traveling/exploring, learning on a consistent basis, and giving back to the youth. I believe that we should always expand our mind in any way that we can to create a better and bigger outcome within our futures.
