About Me

I have a passion for helping and serving kids in any way that I can. I have worked with kids for the majority of my life via church ministries, school programs, and in the workplace. I have tutored students successfully and I am ready to dive into a more formal program where I can engage with students on an academic level even more. My philosophy for learning is repetition, motivation, and confidence. And above all of these things, leaning must be enjoyable and fun. Stressful learning will get students nowhere. When I work with children, I immediately establish a bond, a relationship of comfort and excitement. I want my students to be comfortable and to love asking questions. I am sure that my love for kids and my own academic achievements will make me a great tutor for Varsity Tutors. I will help my students to enjoy learning and to succeed in all of their subjects. I also understand that learning is not an overnight process. Patience is certainly required. I know how kids are and I have the ability to read them well. This quality of mine will also aid in my ability to be a successful tutor. I am so excited to be considered for this role and I hope that I can make differences in students' lives.

Q&A with Sierra

Practice makes perfect! In order to master a subject, it will take repetition and focus. I believe in fun learning. Learning should never be stressful, but exciting and productive. And it will take patience as well. You may not understand a certain topic on the first try, but keep working at it. Do not give up. If you want to, you will achieve.
