About Me
I am a graduate from Youngstown State University (2012), majoring in Biology, and minoring in Chemistry with a 3.46 GPA. I am currently pursuing my Teaching Certificate, TESOL certification, and Thinkersd certification. I am a seasoned tutor, and have taught in a private school teaching an elementary combined class of 2nd/3rd grade. My experience, studies, and also the skills gained from homeschooling my two children make me a versatile instructor for different age groups, levels, and needs.
Experience
I have 7+ years with in-person and online tutoring. In my years of tutoring, I have worked with both adults and children of varying ages in the fields of ELA, Math, Science, Etc. I worked as a private school teacher teaching a combined class of 2nd/3rd-grade students. This has given me insight into the curriculum/planning aspect of education as well. During my time at the private school, I also ran the PTO, which gave me insight into the needs of the school as a whole.
Approach
I was severely behind in my elementary years and was unable to read or write before 3rd grade. I was barely passing through, and most always in trouble. Until I experienced one-on-one summer tutoring, as well as a very kind 4th-grade teacher. Then I excelled beyond my classmates, buried in books, and always at the top as an award-winning student or on the honors list. This has significantly influenced my drive for teaching, especially with my son, who is diagnosed with ADHD.
