I am a graduate of Maranatha Baptist University in Watertown, WI. I received my BS in Humanities Applied Science and a minor in Spanish. While at Maranatha, I participated in the ESL program as a personal teacher, tutored Spanish university students, and contributed to the Humanities blog. My teaching immersion experience in Peru enabled me to communicate with a variety of students, as well. While I love working with students on a wide range of subjects, my common study topics include Spanish, English, and Essay Writing. From my experience with Standardized Test Prep, I realize that approaching the test may seem daunting, yet I've found that a dose of dedication and light-heartedness is a powerful force. As an unrelenting optimist, I capitalize on students' strong points to build them up with encouragement so that they can reproduce the same effectiveness with their own capacities. As a lover of literature and language, I enjoy stumbling across creative, mind-provoking ideas.
