Hi from Pasadena, CA! I am a graduate of University of Wisconsin-Madison with a major in Communications, and a minor in English. I fell in love with learning from a young age - many summer hours were spent at the library in Lake Geneva, WI, picking up books on subjects I wanted to learn more about. Fortunately, my love for education hasn't waned, and after the birth of my two daughters, Mia (5) and Jordan (3), that passion has grown to teaching my girls about new things - they are inquisitive...
Hi from Pasadena, CA! I am a graduate of University of Wisconsin-Madison with a major in Communications, and a minor in English. I fell in love with learning from a young age - many summer hours were spent at the library in Lake Geneva, WI, picking up books on subjects I wanted to learn more about. Fortunately, my love for education hasn't waned, and after the birth of my two daughters, Mia (5) and Jordan (3), that passion has grown to teaching my girls about new things - they are inquisitive just like me!
I moved out to Los Angeles in 2005, and produced films starring Brad Pitt, Margot Robbie, Will Smith and Jake Gyllenhaal. Producing films fulfilled my love for learning new things and meeting new people, as I became an expert in a variety of diverse subjects. I have also been developing stories at a high level for two decades, and have highly honed the craft of storytelling and public speaking.
I have been mentored young storytellers with Roadmap Writers and have taught English to adolescent via VIPKid for the past five years. I am a patient instructor, but like to keep the lesson on track with efficiency. I like to set goals and make consistent strides to achieve said goals. I also approach learning obstacles creatively - if a young student is struggling with a concept, I tend to use metaphors, making the subject easily digestible, so the student can come to the conclusion with minimal hand-holding.
I want to benefit the tutoring experience as much as possible, and therefore welcome any resources or suggestions from the parents for maximum results. I am easy to reach, and will always provide fast responses. Feel free to reach out with any questions or to schedule a lesson. Thanks for reading!
