In 2019 I graduated with my Bachelors degree with Elementary Education (k-8). My first job out of college was teaching 7th, 8th and 11th grade math. The challenge was exciting, as math (especially Algebra) has always been my favorite subject and it was an amazing learning opportunity. I deeply care about guiding future generations to success and passion in both their academic and personal lives.

Life long learning is a hoot! Even with what I have accomplished, I'm not through yet. Curiosity has me constantly looking for things I don't know and mastering them. With 50 years in the classroom - yes this is an old picture - I'm still sticking nose into new things and pushing to learn all I can. If you can express your needs, we will find them together.

...to study and learn rather than to teach them information directly. This means that I ask a lot of questions and help students find the answer on their own. Hence, my goal with tutoring is to help the student develop enough skill at learning to make the tutoring unnecessary. I am currently working toward a Bachelor's in Sciences in computer sciences from the University of Arizona, after which I will get my Master's of Fine...

I have also personally studied how the brain actually learns, and have used this knowledge to better my own personal...
