I have more than 20 years of experience in tutoring students of all ages and levels of education from elementary to graduate school. I am most interested in changing the way my students perceive themselves when approaching math. Throughout the years, I have had the most rewarding experience when my students, besides turning their grades around, feel empowered to the point they become a math resource to their classmates. I take my classes very personally and work together with parents to identify my students' weakness areas. I am a strong believer that by giving tutoring a holistic approach, tutors are successful in changing students' views of life in the most important aspects, preparing them to face the future with more confidence. This is my approach.
In terms of subjects, my expertise is in Algebra, Geometry, Trigonometry, Statistics, Physics and Spanish. As I instill my methodology to my students' studying habits, they find themselves being able to have developed concentration skills to a level of solving the problems without writing!
Spanish skills: Being a native from Peru, South America, my command of the Spanish language is impeccable. Not only because I am native but I always took special attention to learning the right grammar, vocabulary and spelling, excelling at all touching points where Spanish is used. I make learning Spanish a fun experience by connecting with my students on an effective way after evaluating their needs.
My major is Civil Engineering which adds to my extensive teaching experience. I started tutoring when I was 15. My students have stayed in touch after more than 20 years, being most of them successful professionals in various technical fields such as Engineering. My resume comprises my career accomplishments as International Marketing Director for a software company in the US, which provides me with strong analytical skills in order to approach my students' individual situation and craft the most effective studying plan that will help them reach levels of performance they didn't think capable of. This is my best reward. As teaching is one of my strongest passions, I would be delighted to make a difference in my students' professional careers. I enjoy teaching as much as I enjoy my Yoga practice, which is one of my hobbies.
