I earned my bachelor's degree in psychology from Northern Arizona University and my master's degree in psychology with an emphasis in neuroscience from San Diego State University. I have been a teaching assistant for undergraduates and have clinical experience working with children and teenagers, both typically developing and with autism spectrum disorder. The subjects I tutor are varied, but I focus on statistics and mathematics through pre-calculus along with test preparation and essay writing. I am also available to tutor psychology and German (beginner- and intermediate-level). Although I enjoy helping students improve in all subjects, I find that tutoring for standardized tests offers particularly rewarding experiences given the potential impact on students' future academic endeavors. My teaching style involves helping students find their ideal learning style based on their individual strengths and unique way of perceiving information. I try to focus on teaching "how" to think constructively rather than "what" to think. In my free time, I enjoy exercising in some form outdoors, exploring good coffee shops and local restaurants, planning my next vacation, and spending time with family and friends.

As a teacher, I strive to develop close relationships with each student and their families. I incorporate the child's community into the program and their individual interests. I see each student capable of learning and making positive contributions to those around them. I strive to create a welcoming and accepting environment for children and families from diverse cultural backgrounds.
I have experience working with a diverse range of students and can adapt to the needs of each unique learner. I aim to provide one-on-one individualized lessons for each client. For the last year, I have been working as a teaching assistant to an honors faculty member at Arizona State University (ASU). As a teaching assistant, I prepare class materials, perform lectures, grade written assignments of at least 120 students per semester, and individually tutor undergraduate students in overcoming academic difficulties. My goal is to instill a passion of lifelong learning and to teach critical thinking to every one of my students as I believe these are driving factors in students' success both personally and professionally.I recently graduated Summa Cum Laude with my Masters in Social Work and am working on a Masters in Public Administration at ASU. These programs have sharpened my study skills, essay writing, reading comprehension, public speaking and critical thinking abilities. In turn, I am able to tutor students in developing these important skills. While in school, I also worked as a Constituent Services Coordinator for Congresswoman Sinema which required me to develop excellent organizational and time-management skills that I am excited to pass on to my students!I have been trained in direct behavioral health assessment and treatment, as well as in communication studies, developing and presenting curriculum, public budgeting, human resource management, program evaluation, policy analysis, advocacy and much more! My diverse academic and employment history has afforded me the opportunity to work with individuals from all ages and skill levels. I look forward to providing quality tutoring to learners on a full range of subjects including test preparation, and am happy to accommodate my clients by having a very flexible schedule!
I am a Special Education Teacher who has worked with students from 1st grade through college. Being IEP knowledgeable and patient, I utilize a student's strengths and unique learning style to create individualized lessons and materials. Tutoring allows me to help students of differing abilities achieve their academic goals. Whether a student requires assistance in writing a 5 page essay or help with homework and organization, I am your tutor!My favorite subjects to tutor are reading and writing and I thoroughly enjoy both. I love writing my thoughts on paper and have kept a personal journal since my high school days! Reading is one of my favorite hobbies. I truly believe that good reading and writing skills are essential in helping a student succeed in school and life.
I graduated from Northern Arizona University with a Bachelor of Science in Speech Sciences and Technology. In my spare time, I like to swim, watch movies and go to baseball games. While I was completing my undergraduate degree, I did a 100 hour internship. This internship allowed me to work with children, assisting speech therapy sessions, in the school setting. This was a great experience and really made me realize how much I love working with people, especially children. I was also lucky enough to have the opportunity to work with special education children as well. I love working with special education children and understand their needs and desires to succeed in school. Working with people is my desire and helping them succeed is my passion. It is important that tutoring is specific to the child's needs so that it has a positive impact on their school work. I believe that education is achievable for everyone and that it is truly an accomplishment when the child reaches those educational goals.
I graduated from The University of Phoenix with a master's degree in Secondary Education. I graduated from Northern Arizona University with a bachelor's degree in History with a minor in Comparative Religious Studies. I was a high school teacher in World History and Government. I have adored history ever since my dad gave me a copy of "The Once and future King" by T.H. White when I was ten. In fact, I wrote my first college paper on Arthur and his knights of the round table. I l adore all the Social Studies' topics. I love teaching and getting to know my students' diverse needs and adapting the curriculum to them. I had to retire early from teaching in a brick-and-mortar school to homeschool my son, who has an immune deficiency disorder. This gave me an opportunity to gain experience teaching someone who was truly struggling. It also taught me to be very adaptive in my teaching. My son is currently a second-year student in college studying Biochemistry with a pre-med emphasis. He is my greatest success story. I genuinely believe that when students are struggling much of the time they are overwhelmed. This can be due to many factors. As a tutor my primary job is to discover what is overwhelming and keeping the student stuck. Then to unpack it and simplify it for the student. I use many scaffolding techniques to help my students out. Scaffolding is a technique in which a teacher takes a lesson apart in smaller chunks and reintroduces the information to the student. As I stated earlier, I love teaching I look forward to collaborating with you to find ways to make you a success.
"I don't just teach students what to learn but how to learn it."When I first heard the word philolexian, I realized that it is the best word I can use to describe myself. From the ancient Greek, it means "lover of discourse" which I also translate to mean "lover of learning." As a philolexian, I believe that I can learn just as much from my students as I can teach them. However, there is nothing that excites me more than to inspire and guide students on their path to academic success and achieving higher education.A little bit about my background. I earned my Bachelor of Science degree in Educational Psychology from the University of Minnesota and my Masters in Education degree in Educational Leadership from Northern Arizona University. My past research has focused on the psychology of student learning, study skills, peak performance, and career development. My current interest is focused on E learning and instructional design and it's role in higher education.I have been an English and Psychology college instructor and career specialist for over 15 years teaching courses and workshops for high schools, colleges, non profit and government organizations.Just keep in mind that if you really try and get the most out of tutoring, it will first blow your mind and then change your life forever! Also, there are NO stupid questions. I am looking forward to getting to know you.
I have a master's degree in physics with research emphasis in astrophysics from San Francisco State University. I received my Bachelor of Science in physics and astronomy with a minor in math. Currently I am an adjunct instructor at Mesa Community College teaching astrophysics courses. I have four years of teaching experience in astronomy and physics lab courses at San Francisco State University. I acquired excellent teaching skills while I was a graduate student at San Francisco State University for which I even received an honor of outstanding physics teaching assistant from San Francisco State University. I was also a math instructor for a Summer Bridge program at San Francisco state University where my responsibility was to teach first year college algebra. I have tutored kids in the age group of 8 to 15 in the subject areas of science and math. I tutor math (calculus, differential equations, algebra, geometry and trigonometry) and science courses (physics, astrophysics, planetary science). I enjoy teaching in general and am passionate about math, physics and astronomy. I firmly believe that education is one of the most important tools in shaping a child's life and I would love to be a part of that process. In my past experience I have noticed many students struggle with subjects like math and physics and my goal is to try to make it a fun experience for them. In my spare time I enjoy reading books, biking, hiking , running and snow boarding. During my graduate program I liked volunteering at our college observatory and I still like to take my telescope out occasionally for star gazing.
I have a Bachelor's Degree in Psychology from Arizona State University, along with post-baccalaureate work in Secondary Education, History and Political Science. I also hold a Masters in Educational Leadership from Northern Arizona University. I am currently gearing toward a Masters in History.I have over twenty-seven years of experience as a classroom teacher, and have also been a tutor during that time. I have taught middle school mathematics, science, psychology as an elective, and social studies, which is my favorite subject. In social studies, I teach history (U.S. or World), Civics and Geography. I also tutor all the subjects mentioned, and have also taught religious studies.I enjoy tutoring most age and age groups, especially fourth grade through high school.I must also mention I work a great deal in developing the writing skills of my students, especially involving the use of the Six Traits of Writing.In tutoring, I work with a student's most effective style of learning. Anything can be learned if it reaches a student through their best learning modality. I know from experience anyone can and does learn. It is simply a matter of finding your own style, and I can help in that area. Oftentimes, clients choose a tutor because they share a similar hobby. In my spare time, I enjoy living history as a reenactor, especially with the American Civil War. I am also an avid reader, focusing on history and short story fiction. I am also a huge Disneyland fan. Finally, I enjoy most competitive sports, including baseball, basketball, football, and ice hockey (which I have played).
I am a current student at Northern Arizona University and I am studying Elementary Education with an emphasis in K-6 Math, Middle School Math, History/Social Studies, and Humanities.Ever since I can remember, I have wanted to be a teacher and I have used that passion and drive to learn the most I can about being a successful, kind, and supportive teacher/tutor. I have cherished my extensive time as a teacher's aid in the classroom, and along the way have developed my own teaching style. I believe that it's a teacher's job to help a student to enjoy what they are learning, so inquiry is a big part of my teaching style. I love to get my students engaged and intrigued by the subject they are working on. That way, the topics they are working through can be approached at a fun and exciting angle.Although I have a fondness for all subjects of learning, I have a true passion for mathematics. My previous major as a Secondary Education Mathematics student lead me to realize how much I love the thrill of solving a math problem. That is something I am so excited to share with my students! I am also passionate about organization and helping a student figure out the best way for them to learn/stay organized and efficient!Along with my love for math, I love to read, paint, and hike.
As a dedicated tutor with a Bachelor's degree in Civil Engineering from Oregon State University and a second Bachelor's in Administration of Justice from Northern Arizona University and pursuing a Masters degree in Civil Engineering at Oregon State University, I am committed to guiding students through subjects like Algebra, Statics, Dynamics, Structural Analysis and AutoCAD. My approach centers on fostering a supportive learning environment where students feel empowered to tackle challenging concepts. I strive to connect with each student personally, adapting my teaching methods to align with their unique learning styles. My passion for tutoring stems from a desire to inspire confidence and cultivate a genuine interest in the subjects I teach, ensuring that every student can achieve their fullest potential. In my free time, I enjoy engaging in physical fitness and outdoor activities, problem-solving activities, and keeping up with the latest advancements in engineering technology.
The average American consumes an estimated 100,000 words each day in conversation, news articles, blog entries, social media posts, and more. I have devoted my academic and professional career to discovering how to use these units of communication to create the biggest impact, whether it be in my copywriting, teaching, or audio and video production.I recently completed my Master of Arts in Communication from Marquette University, where I taught over 300 students in undergraduate courses that cover the basics of applied research and visual communication. I guided my students on how to create informational or fundraising brochures for twenty-four local nonprofits. I also earned Marquette's unique Certificate in Digital Storytelling, a program that has allowed me to further explore how audio and video resources can be used to craft engaging stories for fundraising, education, or entertainment.Prior to this, I was the Communications Director for a new nonprofit, where I was able to increase online and in-person engagement through an established mailing list and social media accounts. I produced viral videos that received national media attention and responses from Senators John McCain and Jeff Flake (among other legislators). I analyzed the demographics of our most engaged members and targeted an ad campaign to a specific subset of women, increasing our Facebook followers by over 100% over the span of two months.I also served as the Public Information Assistant for the Milwaukee County Board of Supervisors. In addition to my general duties managing the office and organizing events, I also wrote accessible press releases, doubled their Twitter followers, created step-by-step guides on how to use various web applications, and delivered concise news alerts to the entire county courthouse staff. I instructed other team members how to use the Hootsuite social media management system to schedule effective Facebook and Twitter posts that can be analyzed in terms of viewership and engagement.I crafted other digital campaigns during my work with Vertical Measures. I ghostwrote blog posts for a variety of clients using evolving SEO techniques and maintained a number of other lucrative blogs devoted to politics and popular culture. My experiences collaborating with diverse communities in Bulgaria and South Korea would invariably also be an asset to any organization committed to expanding its reach among various nationalities and ethnicities.
I bring a wealth of experience and passion to tutoring, rooted in my background in special and elementary education from Northern Arizona University. Over the past five years, I've had the privilege of teaching in both California and Arizona, with the first two years dedicated to special education and the subsequent three years nurturing young minds in first grade. Additionally, I've spent three summers teaching first grade in summer school settings, where I honed my skills in engaging students beyond the traditional classroom environment. My teaching approach is versatile, encompassing whole group, small group, and personalized one-on-one instruction. What sets me apart is my unwavering commitment to every student's success and well-being. I believe in creating a supportive learning environment where each child feels valued and empowered, regardless of their learning style. During the challenges of the pandemic, I successfully transitioned to online teaching, ensuring continuity in education while maintaining strong connections with my students and their families. Beyond the classroom, I prioritize collaboration with parents to ensure that every child receives the tailored support they need to thrive academically and emotionally. My students have consistently responded positively to my approach, knowing that I genuinely care about their growth and achievement. I look forward to bringing my dedication, expertise, and enthusiasm for education to support your child's learning journey.

I understand math, especially Algebra subjects, are incredible complex and often abstract for students to learn. I enjoying breaking down the topics into "why" they work. I focus less on memorization of formulas and more on the reasons why the numbers are used. This approach also means that students are getting a deeper understanding and it makes it easier to apply their prior knowledge to new concepts.
Hello! I am a community college professor of biology with 16 years teaching experience. I teach general biology and human anatomy and physiology, and have experience teaching students from ages 17 to 60. I welcome the opportunity to tutor and learn with you.

Hi! Welcome to this awesome journey you're on with language! Let's connect you with the best resources and get you back on track with English! Bring your questions and I'll help as I can. Austin
During my undergraduate years, I tended to hang out with the math crowd, despite my status as a physics major. I joined math club at my university (NAU) and enjoyed subjects within math. Even today I will choose to read mathematics material over topics in science, which is a switch from my younger years. However, physics was the start of my passion for mathematics, and I hope share this sense of awe with you, or anyone I am teaching/assisting. I have been fortunate to have been given the opportunity to teach a calculus class, for two years, and every part of it has been rewarding. And for the past two consecutive summers the University of Arizona has given me the chance to connect with my science roots and conduct some cutting-edge optics research.
I have a Master's degree in Elementary Education, and I have experience teaching second and fourth grades as well as teaching English to children and adults. In my free time, I enjoy reading, biking and watching movies.
I was born in The Netherlands and have lived on the West Coast (CA and AZ) since the age of 7. I attended Northern Arizona University and obtained a BS in Sociology and a BA in French in 2013. My junior year of college, I had the amazing opportunity to study sociology in Montpellier, France. During college, I always stayed involved in with volunteer organizations and have worked with everything from building trails in the wild forests of Utah to befriending home-bound seniors get around easier. In life, I always try to surround myself with different people and environments.After working in a retirement home for a year, I decided to join Teach for America and began teaching in rural Eastern North Carolina. I had the pleasure of teaching second grade for two years. The students had skill levels and interests of all kinds, and I truly learned how to adapt and facilitate. Although we were an underfunded district in a low-income rural area, we created a classroom centered around exploration and diligence. By the end of the year, students were telling me things about the world that I didn't know!The best moment is when a student figures or learns something on their own because of the tools you have given them. That's what makes me excited about tutoring one-on-one in New York City.I enjoy tutoring elementary subjects because they can be done in very creative and engaging ways. Even math can be drawn, sung or painted. My sessions will strive to create real connections and interactions with the content.I can also tutor in French for all ages.Outside of tutoring, I am working on an educational app that would coach parents on how to help their students with academic vocabulary. I also enjoy music, art, biking, hiking, traveling and exploring coffee shops.
I am a recent graduate of the Pacific Northwest Film Scoring Program at Seattle Film Institute. Before obtaining my masters here, I received a separate masters degree in music theory at Northern Arizona University. As a tutor, I will be focusing on teaching music theory and ear training, but I am more than happy to talk a little bit about how music is created for film/tv. I enjoy working with students and helping them to understand the various, intricate details that help build the many masterpieces that have been written over the centuries.
I am a Highly Qualified, state certified classroom teacher, and have been for the last five years. I have taught both fourth and fifth grades. I have also worked with students younger and older in my schools' various tutoring programs, as well as throughout my college and high school years. I graduated from Northern Arizona University with my Bachelors Degree in Elementary Education and will begin my Masters Degree in Educational Leadership through Arizona State University next summer.Teaching is a sincere passion of mine. It is a pleasure to help children grow and learn every day. Sometimes, in a whole group classroom setting, students can get lost in the chaos of it all, but with tutoring, the focus is solely on one student and their specific needs. I look forward to discussing in depth what your student's challenges are, as well as their strengths. We then will set goals off of some baseline data and work from there.My ultimate goal for your child is for them to feel safe and successful with tutoring, a time to look forward to. Let's get started!
I'm an experienced reading, writing, and ESL instructor who has taught both adolescents and adults in high school and pre-college programs. During my undergraduate years, I studied Spanish at Indiana University of Pennsylvania and participated in study abroad programs at El Centro Bilinge and La Universidad de Las Americas in Mexico. While completing my Bachelor's, I tutored classmates in English and assisted them with proofreading essays. Later, I completed a Master's of Education in Bilingual/Multicultural Education through Northern Arizona University. While studying for this degree, I volunteered at a junior high school and taught ESL classes there. After graduation, I moved to Oregon and began adjunct teaching for a community college in their Adult Basic Skills Program where I taught ESL, PreGED/GED Language Arts, Visual Arts, Graphic Design, basic computer skills, and pre-college Reading/Writing courses. I enjoy teaching ESL and English the most because of the opportunities to help students increase their vocabulary and express themselves creatively through writing. My first goal when teaching is to raise a student's confidence in their communicative abilities and expand upon their background knowledge, so that they are able to increasingly take on more difficult assignments. I strongly believe that confidence is the key to succeeding in any subject. In combining high levels of confidence and a well-rounded education, one will have more opportunities for career, social, and personal growth. Outside of teaching English, I'm also a photographer who enjoys story-telling through visual imagery. When I'm not in the classroom or the studio, I'm out hiking and appreciating the beauty of nature around me.
Hello! Nice to meet you! My name is Alisha E. Teaching is my passion! When I see the looks on my students faces when they achieve academic success it makes me so proud! I am very much a people person which helps me reach all the students I teach, whether adult or child.I am an Arizona Certified teacher with a valid fingerprint clearance card. I grew up and went to high school in the Philadelphia area and then attended the University of Arizona where I earned a degree in Political Science. I earned my Master's degree in Education Leadership and Administration at Northern Arizona University. After spending 11 years teaching in Paradise Valley Unified School District, it was time for a change so now I am now a full time tutor.My experience as a teacher was not solely in the classroom. I have spent 10 years tutoring home bound students for the school district in a wide range of subjects, but focused mainly on math. (I tutor up through Algebra 3-4 and Geometry. I can tutor most subjects through the high school level aside from foreign languages and sciences.) In addition as a teacher, I was a leader on my campus as part of our leadership team and Student Council Adviser.My philosophy as a tutor is to work with the student one on one and to connect with him or her. As a middle school teacher, by doing this, I was the fun, popular teacher on campus. My performance evaluations say that, and I have thousands of former students who would say that as well, but most importantly I get results!I would love to help you out! Contact me now so I can help YOU achieve SUCCESS!Sincerely,Alisha E., M.Ed.
I am here to help. Learning and taking tests can be stressful. Some students benefit seeing the structure of how prior learning relate to the current ideas. Others approach learning in much less linear fashion. Getting to know the student and their learning style can reduce their frustration. I hope to help get people into the zone where they can learn without being frustrated.
I am highly qualified to teach Physics and Chemistry and I have over 8 years' experience teaching Physics (AP curriculum), Chemistry and AP Chemistry. I also have experience teaching at the community college level and I currently teach an online physics class. I have a Master of Science degree in Medical Physics from Georgia Institute of Technology.My approach to tutoring is to ask the student questions, work through actual problems and then determine if there are more basic concepts that need to be covered. Many times, a student will have trouble with advanced concepts because he or she has not fully mastered a previous, simpler concept. Science, like math, builds upon itself, so a concept missed early in the year can cause problems throughout the rest of the year if it is not addressed. I can explain problems from various angles to incorporate the learning style of student. I also have many memory aids that can help a student to be able to keep information straight. Most of all, I am patient and don't mind covering information multiple times because the goal is to really understand the material, not to learn it in as little time as possible.
I am a passionate educator with a Master's degree in Education from Northern Arizona University and over 10 years of experience teaching and tutoring across a wide range of subjects. My background includes elementary reading, secondary history and social studies, and special education. I began my career as a high school history teacher, teaching world and American history as well as psychology and sociology, and later worked in a large Phoenix-area school district's homebound program. I am currently a social studies teacher for an online charter school and work as an instructional aide for a large university. I enjoy working with students individually and in small groups and helping them achieve their personal academic goals.
Having taught at both the elementary and university level, I am experienced in working with students of all levels to develop the reading and writing skills they need to gain and share knowledge clearly. These skills are vital in continuing education, the workforce, and day-to-day living. I strongly believe that practice and feedback are necessary for growth and look forward to partnering with students to meet their goals.
I've a passion for language, literature, culture and travel. Continuing to learn as I teach is vital to me and tutoring affords me the fantastic opportunity of sharing my knowledge, experience and enthusiasm. I got my English degree from Northern Arizona University where I was also an athletic trainer. While my love is admittedly poetry and literature, I am also a science geek and medicine called to me before teaching did. My TEFL with an IELTS certification allowed me to live and teach in Indonesia for almost three years. I taught a wide age range of students both in person then online extensively (as most of found ourselves in early 2020 and then too long after that). Being a curious bird by nature, I found the cultures and languages of Southeast Asia to be captivating. I asked as many questions of my students as they did of me and that helped us relate and work together. Some of my proudest times there (and when I returned home teaching online and in class) were when I would have students with those aha! I get it, I can do it ! breakthroughs. I am currently learning Spanish ( again) and definitely appreciate those forehead smacking aha! moments for myself, as well. For my IELTS and TOEFL students, we started from where they were and built on strengths while working on the tough stuff, primarily writing. I truly believe that listening to students is key for success for both parties. Continual communication is extremely important. Humor and having fun while learning is not only possible but necessary for me and is the way I prefer to teach and tutor. I have found that mistakes will and must be made to move forward, and keeping it light while still putting in the work helps immensely.
I am a proud graduate of Northern Arizona University with a Master of Education in Elementary Education and endorsements as a Reading Specialist and in Structured English Immersion. I have also completed Science of Reading coursework and dyslexia training. In my 19 years of teaching, I have taught 1st grade for 4.5 years, 3rd grade for 4 years, Special Education for 1 year, and have served as a K3 Reading Specialist for 11.5 years. While I enjoy tutoring a variety of subjects, I am most passionate about reading and math. Helping struggling students build strong foundational skills and confidence is one of the most rewarding parts of my career. I believe education improves quality of life and strive to make learning engaging, interactive, and enjoyable while meeting each student where they are. Outside of education, I enjoy reading, crocheting, cross-stitching, ranching, playing sports, and puzzle games, reflecting my love of creativity, problem-solving, and lifelong learning.
Hi! My name is Logan, and I am a first-year college student. I am passionate about history, and I am excited to be tutoring!

I also received an award from my school for my performance in AP World and was named the best student in the history department. I also have an entire AP World curriculum to review with students.
I have been teaching 7th and 8th-grade math for several years. I have also been tutoring math students from 6th grade to 10th grade in math, Pre-Algebra, Algebra 1, and Geometry. I like to let the student drive the tutoring session. If you just want someone to validate your answers, teach you a different way, or just sit and work the problems together, I'm your person! I like to talk about sports and rollercoasters. I don't want to be just your tutor--I want to be your math advocate as you progress through your math classes.
I am currently enrolled in university, to pursue a degree in microbiology. In high school, I often tutored elementary and middle school kids in reading, writing, and math. I would love the opportunity to tutor you!
I am a graduate from Northern Arizona University. I got my degree in Special and Elementary Education. This is my 6th year of teaching. I am a first and second grade special education teacher.

Dear Spanish and ESL learners.. here is a little bit about me. Looking forward in helping you achieve your cultural, knowledge, and academic goals!!I am from Guadalajara Jalisco, Mxico and I earned my Bachelor's Degree in Spanish Education from Northern Arizona University as well as my Master's Degree.I've been teaching Spanish for ten years now. Through my teaching experience, I've had the opportunity to travel and meet amazing people!! Being a Spanish teacher has not only given me the chance to teach others my language but also the chance to learn about other languages and cultures.Learning a foreign language is not easy. It really takes quite a bit of work. The class will mainly be conducted in Spanish. You will be expected to speak in Spanish as much as possible. We all learn from mistakes and this is especially true when learning a foreign language!
My name is Lisa Hamilton. I am a highly experienced teacher with a Bachelor of Science in Elementary Education (K-8) and Special Education, Emotional Disabilities (K-12). I also have a Masters of Education in Secondary Education, Mathematics (7-12).I have taught for 31 years, teaching 4th-12th grade, regular education and special education. The last 20 years, I have taught math, grades 7-12. I have taught all levels of math.I have tutored privately for various families for the last 20 years, and I currently tutor middle and high school math students. I have also tutored a few students in college, Calculus I and Calculus II being the highest levels. I have tutored some in Science, History, and English. I have extensive experience with students who need motivational, organizational and/or time management help. I have also worked with students taking online classes who need these skills, as well as math assistance. I enjoy seeing students accomplish goals and concepts that they did not think possible. I enjoy seeing students enjoy learning and becoming empowered by what they can accomplish. I have frequently told my students that my job is to work myself out of a job; I want them to learn how to learn so they no longer need me! I have reached this point with many of my students, and it makes for a great ending.I really enjoy a lot of "Nerdy" things; Star Wars and Harry Potter are two of my biggest "Fandoms"! I love games and puzzles and find math to be one of those. I have raised four amazing adults and love being a grandma! I love the outdoors, camping and hiking are my favorites. I love to cook and spend time with family and friends. I am also a football fan and love the Green bay Packers!I look forward to the next great adventure!
I love helping students learn and grow while making sure they are being challenged. I enjoy learning and I am hoping to instill that same thing with the students I work with.
