In 2013 I graduated from Houston Baptist University with my Bachelor of Arts in English and Biblical Languages. I minored in Latin and received the outstanding student award in English. After my BA, I moved from Houston to Boston with my husband. In 2015 I earned my MA in Classical Studies from the University of Massachusetts in Boston, focusing on Greek and Latin literature. I am currently working on my PhD in English Literature at Southern Methodist University. I specialize in the intersection between ancient texts and Christianity as it is evident in Renaissance literature. During my MA I worked as a teacher's assistant, learning teaching strategies from many distinguished professors. Students met with me one on one to discuss assignments, work on papers, and review for tests. During these years I had the opportunity to work with several ESL students and students with disabilities. Being deaf in my right ear gives me a unique perspective when working with students struggling with disabilities because I have fought those battles myself, albeit to a smaller degree than some. I firmly believe that disabilities should never stand in the way of learning.I currently teach DISC writing courses at SMU and help students make sure that their writing is up to the collegiate level. I also work with an ESL program in the Frisco area. In this program, I help students of all levels in their journey to learn English.I love literature, and I hope to be able to share that joy with others. I am always happy to help students improve their writing and expand their vocabularies, regardless of the language. When it comes to test prep, my knowledge of Latin and Greek allows me to point out roots of words that will enable students to determine vocabulary definitions much faster. A good education provides a strong foundation for life, and I love helping others establish that firm ground from which they will continue to grow. I am always challenging myself by reading new books and articles.Throughout my life, I have studied Spanish, Latin, German, Hebrew, Greek, Old English, and Japanese. This strong background in foreign languages means that I am intimately familiar with the language acquisition process, and I love using that background to help others take their first steps with a foreign language. I firmly believe that learning another language should be fun and that it is one of the most rewarding journeys a person can take. When working with children, I like to use items that they already know and love to help them learn.

I am a graduate of Houston Christian University with a major in finance and a minor in cinema and new media. I first started tutoring on a volunteer basis at my community college and fell in love with it. Since then, I've worked and volunteered as a tutor over a wide variety of subjects for years, and eventually obtained my alternative certification as a high school math teacher. I have experience helping students of all ages from grade school to adults, from public schools to homeschoolers, and the one thing they all have in common is that they learn best if they want to learn. As an educator, my job is not only to explain the concepts the students want to learn but also to make the lessons engaging enough that they will want to learn.

I have been working with children with exceptionalities for over 14 years. I am a Highly Qualified Texas Board Certified Teacher and Licensed Educational Diagnostician. I am knowledgeable about the classifications of students' learning differences and I understand how to effectively develop, implement, evaluate and facilitate the delivery of interventions for children with different learning styles. For over 14 years I have delivered differentiated and scientifically proven instructional techniques in which are prescriptive, systematic, motivating, creative and culturally responsive. My success as an educator can be attributed to my creativity and ability to effectively target instruction based on students' strengths and weaknesses.I am committed to being a life-long learner and staying abreast of 21st century teaching and learning. This will guide and direct my recommendations and assure the development of individualized treatment plans and interventions that are purposeful, observable, and measurable.

I am currently a student at Houston Baptist University working my way up to a Bachelor's Degree in computer science. Currently, I help tutor a lot of friends, class peers, or other school mates. While I do tutor in many subjects(Pre- Algebra Algebra, Geometry, Pre-calculus, Calculus 1), I am most passionate about programming (Python). Nonetheless, with all of my tutor experience it is always a very fun and efficient learning environment. In my free time, I enjoy reading, working out, coding, and a game of soccer.

I love math so much that it has become a lifestyle. I used to read Harry Potter and think "If only magic were real, I'd study so hard that I'd be the best wizard ever!" (pardon my tastes if you're not into fantasy)Well magic is real. Magic is the underlying mechanism of reality: how the world works, and math is the language it's written in.I've heard things like "math is cold and calculating," but I would argue that math is closer to English and the arts than it is to the sciences. Math is about curiosity, creativity, and intuition; you're writing spells to solve the problems of the world.Any calculator can do arithmetic, but if I can show you why the math exists in the first place, and how to invent it yourself, then and only then have I done my job.

Hey there! I'd love to create a friendly and relaxed environment for you to learn. Learning can be hard, but having someone to explain how to fill the gaps in your knowledge makes is less hard. In my experience, people learn the best when someone is supporting them, and I'd love to be part of that support a student needs.

I am delighted to guide you in your journey of education, advancement, and curiousity. Children and adolescents of all ages are the hope for the future. I connect and build strong rapport with young, bright minds as I tailor the tutoring process, rewards and reminders, and communication to the student's preferences and ability. My experience with children involves tutoring and babysitting since my adolescent years, coaching volleyball since my undergraduate years, and teaching preschool in between medical school and my Masters program. I have earned an International Baccalaureate certificate and high school diploma from McAllen Memorial High School, a Bachelors of Science in Biology with Minors in Chemistry and Medical Humanities from the University of Texas Rio Grande Valley, and I am currently gaining a Masters degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. I am strongly suited to tutor in the sciences, math, English, Spanish, Korean, psychology, and standardized tests (SAT, ACT, MCAT, and STEP 1). Personally, I understand the pressure and demands of standardized examinations; therefore, I wish to offer my advice and care for those struggling with these types of assessments. Asking for help is not a weakness, especially in the realm of education. I anticipate bonding with my students and tutoring them to the best of my abilities.

As a passionate and patient educator with nearly 2 decades of teaching experience and a master's degree, I specialize in tailoring learning to your (or your student's) needs or interests and building the confidence needed to be a lifelong learner. I particularly enjoy helping with math and study skills.

Although I grew up speaking both English and Spanish, I wanted to further my education and learn more. I have taken every level of Spanish including AP Spanish in High School, Kindergarten through 12th grade, and graduated from Houston Baptist University with a Bachelor's in Spanish. I strongly believe by learning a second language, it can make an individual very marketable in any job you pursue and if given the opportunity, I would like to add that value to anyone who would like to be tutored.

I am a native Houstonian who attended HBU, and then earned a law degree from the University of Houston. My first tutoring experience actually happened during law school, when I used a writing tutor to help me improve with my own writing. I found the experience very helpful, and was able to go on to be published in a law journal. I have also taught English as a Second language for the past two years to adults. These experiences have taught me the importance of creating a positive and encouraging learning environment, where students feel safe to express themselves and ask questions. I also try to explain concepts in multiple ways to help my student grasp the concepts.I enjoy tutoring writing and essays. Writing, both creatively and technically, is a necessary skill to succeed in today's media-centered world, and I enjoy helping my students succeed in this area.In my free time, I enjoy being active outside with sports like cycling, swimming and running. I love spending time with my little niece, reading, and listening to music.

I have always been fascinated with science since I was a kid. I always performed really well in the science fairs in elementary school and middle school. When I went to high school I took an interest in physics. I eventually went to college to get a degree in physics. This was when I published my first paper for the European Journal of Physics. I was also fascinated with programming and the way the internet works today. I began to learn the programming language python. Then I learned ruby which was easier. I then set out to learning jQuery, Javascript, Java and HTML&CSS. Now I am fascinated with the connections between quantum physics and the arrival of the world wide web we have today. I am practicing the art of launching a website and plan on learning machine learning someday after I learn C C++ and C#! quantum physics and programming are challenges but that is only because they are adventures. No adventure was ever easy but they are always worth it!
