Introduction:
Thank you for taking the time to review my tutoring credentials.
To better understand the type of tutoring support I offer...I believe an understanding of my "Why" would be the best place to start.
The "Why?":
Why is the "Why" important for you to understand when choosing a Varsity Tutor to support your learning objectives?
Well, the "Why" informs you of why I decided to become a teacher. The "Why" provides you with a more personal understanding as to why I have dedicated myself to the profession of teaching.
Credentials, Endorsements and Certifications are important, but when combined with a teacher's passion and desire to help and support learners...truly all is possible.
I came to teaching out of my own struggles in school. When I was in grade school all the way through high school...no one discussed "diverse" learning, "alternative" learning styles or "student-oriented" learning. There was one way to learn...and I just did not fit into the "classical" learning mold.
I have dedicated myself to being a teacher with understanding and expertise in supporting all learners. I understand the overwhelming feelings of being lost or confused in a classroom. Being afraid to ask questions, anxiety when walking into school, shut down and checked out.
Whether you are a parent looking for individualized support for your child or an adult learner, I provided my students with "Customized Learning" presented in engaging easy-to-understand-lesson plans. My learners master their objectives more efficiently and effectively as I have tailored these sessions based exclusively on learning style and objectives.
I look forward to the opportunity to share my experience and qualifications in support of your learning objectives and goals.
