I enjoy working with students at all levels because I enjoy the challenge and love to help others grow no matter where their starting point may be. I have a strong background in English and Communication Arts and I desire to use my skills to create multiple ways for my students to learn material in an interesting manner. Overall, I want to inspire others to be the best person that they can be and to teach my students that they truly can achieve anything with hard work and dedication. I received my Master's degree in Interdisciplinary Studies, focusing on Communication Studies and Writing, from Cal State University, Northridge. I completed my Bachelor's degree in Youth Theatre at San Diego State University. I have experience working with students in grades K-college. I have worked as a Youth Arts Program Director, where I have taught creative writing, performing arts, and public speaking classes. I have also served as a teacher for Teach for America in Las Vegas, where I taught Reading, Writing, and Drama to middle school students. I have four years of tutoring experience in Reading, Writing, Public Speaking, and Performing Arts. I believe that communication is a crucial part of our lives and desire to teach my students how to best utilize this skill to be successful in life. I want to share my passion for learning with my students by catering to their individual learning needs and interests, which will optimize their success. My favorite subject to tutor is Writing because I enjoy teaching my students how to showcase their own voice. In writing you have the freedom to show your own personal style while talking about any topic, which can be a powerful tool for self-expression. Writing is a way for the author to be heard and I enjoy helping my students learn how to adequately get their own voice heard by the rest of the world. In my free time I enjoy hiking, photography, and spending time with my dog. I love exploring new places and have an interest in travel. I like to watch comedy movies and enjoy music of all kinds.
