我在马里兰大学帕克分校获得了基础教育学士学位。不久之后，我获得了中学数学背书。我目前正在攻读马里兰州威斯敏斯特市麦克丹尼尔学院的课程与教学管理硕士学位。我已经做了十多年的家教了。作为一名高中生，我辅导朋友和家人的所有科目。在马里兰大学的四年里，我开始辅导其他大学生。在我大学四年级的时候，我在肯尼迪克里格研究所工作，成为了一名矫正阅读导师。大学毕业后，我在查尔斯县当了一名中学数学老师。我教过不同的水平，从基础水平到加速/高级水平以及代数II。我也有很多其他与学生一起工作的经验。 I have sponsored a mentoring club for a select group of students after school as well as currently tutoring students. Currently, I tutor all levels of elementary and middle school math as well as Algebra II and Geometry. I am also currently serving as a pre-college mentor for a few family members, helping them navigate the college selection, application, and financial aid processes. I am a huge math nerd! I absolutely love tutoring math. I love solving math equations myself. I know it sounds weird, but I really love all math topics. Math is so much fun for me! Typically you follow rules and the answer just happens, this is awesome! I also love tutoring/ guiding students through the college selection experience. As one of the first members of my family to earn a college degree, I had very few mentors and went about the process blindly. I decided I wouldn't allow anyone else I knew go through the same thing. I began working as a pre-college mentor while at Maryland and it was one of the most rewarding experiences I have ever had. I am a very hands on type of teacher. I love to cut, sort, glue, color, etc during my lessons. I try to incorporate all these things into my tutoring when possible. I also like to provide a lot of practice with each skill. I try to provide my own problems for my students to help them get used to the skill. I also like to help my students think of shortcuts for each skill. I like to show multiple ways to solve the problems so students have a wide range of options to choose from. My love for school sometimes extends outside of the classroom. I love to read so I'm not a complete math geek. I play volleyball and love all things football and basketball. Of course I am a huge online shopper and I like to call myself an Ebay master! In addition to those things, I like to watch movies and go out to eat.
