I am a certified teacher and have been in the education field for 16 years. I was a paraprofessional for 6 years, substitute teacher for 5 years, and elementary teacher for 5 years. I have also tutored alongside my profession since 2016.
I am a firm believer of establishing great a connection with students to help them feel comfortable to learn. It is important to build their confidence to see them grow. Getting to know the student and accommodating to their learning needs is crucial for success.
My favorite success story is seeing a student from middle school improve her Math grade. She was lacking confidence in school because the teacher was moving too fast. When tutoring, I reviewed the lessons slower with more repetition and made the problems appeal to real life scenarios. It was nice to see that she improved. Mom kept in touch with me and let me know she later was enrolled in AP Algebra when she was in High School.
I enjoy traveling, hiking, going to the gym, finding new restaurants, and watching T.V.
