Salutations;
Frankly, I am new at tutoring. However, I am not new at teaching and training.
My college degree is in Physical Education. I also have experience teaching at the elementary school level, 4th & 5th graders. I am a former Police Officer and taught Drug Abuse Resistance Education (DARE), in Auburn, Washington, to over 5,000 elementary school students during a period of approximately 8 years. I've also had successful prior experience tutoring Spanish one-on-one to students of all ages. I believe in positive coaching and teaching methods; and in empowering and inspiring the student to want to attain success.
I have a vast knowledge of World and U.S. History; and I can also tutor and assist anyone in becoming a better writer, and soccer player!
I am a Washington State Certified Spanish Interpreter; and a WA State DOL Certified Trainer. I am also a former US Army Aviator & Veteran.
On a personal note, my passion is my family, and coaching youth soccer; which I've been doing for over thirty years.
Respectfully,
Rafael
