Fun Facts

When I was in the second grade, my teacher Mrs. Ramsey read us the Hank The Cowdog book series. This is the first memory of me loving to read. Books can take a person to far off places or even entirely new worlds. I am an avid reader even to this day.

About Me

My name is Kristin Basham. I am 23 years old and as of today, I am a graduate of the University of Texas at San Antonio. My biggest goal in life right now is to get a job as an elementary teacher. Having my own classroom is a huge dream of mine and I hope to realize that dream very soon.

While at UTSA, I was a supplemental instructor for Texas Government. During my time as an SI, I attended the Texas Government class to take my own notes. Then, I would hold study sessions for any student(s) who may need a bit of extra help on the curriculum. I thoroughly enjoyed my time as an SI because I got to meet new people and help out those who needed the extra nudge.

I guess my basic approach to tutoring would be honestly about the students themselves. As a tutor, I try to get to know my students as best as possible to see exactly how they learn best. Then, I use this knowledge to build up curriculum that will fit the students as individuals. I believe that this approach is best because no two people are the same; what words with one student may not work with another.
