I have also spent substantial time observing and teaching in 5th grade room and a Kindergarten. I have spent my last four summers as a camp counselor supervising and teaching children ages 5- 16. I would love to be a tutor because I value one-on-one time with children. I believe personal investment is a powerful way to make a difference in someone's life. Education is such a critical key to understanding the world we live in and it would be an absolute privilege to be able to invest in your child to help them discover the world.

Hobbies

I am very passionate about music, math, education and my faith. My top 5 strengths, according to the Strength's Finders test, are Relator, Analytical, Responsibility, Learner and Developer. I love getting to know people and ask 'why' questions to help people think deeper about situations. I am a very responsible person who loves to learn and help other people meet their potential. Every child has enormous potential. Sometimes, schools are not quite able to meet the needs of all of their students, which is why a tutor is so valuable. Your child will be given personalized attention to help him or her grow in areas where they excel, or may need some special attention on. I have a heart full of love, joy and a passion for teaching children.
