Experience
I have 6 years of tutoring experience with Elementary and Middle School students (in all subjects). I have also tutored High School students in the areas of Literature and Writing. I have a passion for helping others learn, and assisting kids and teens in reaching their full potential. I enjoy tailoring my approach in teaching by understanding the learning style of each student. I have also been a Behavior Therapist for children with Autism and Down Syndrome. My experience has taught me to have an extreme patience level when teaching all of my students. It is important to me that all students know their value and knowledge. We all have abilities and disabilities, my primary purpose is to have my students excel in their abilities and progress in their disabilities.

Hobbies
I love Creative Writing and all things Grammar! I am a bit of a perfectionist in organization and planning. One of my favorite over-used quotes is, "If you fail to plan, you are planning to fail!" That being said, I encourage all my students to keep an organized life in order to better succeed. Being a university student, I understand the overwhelming feeling that school and its seemingly never ending homework can effect a student. I am here to ease that burden by constant encouragement, patience, and organization. Learning is not confined to an academic setting, and I make it a point to let my students know that what they are learning can also effect their daily lives.
