About Kiara


Bio

Coaching is the ability to teach and inspire, with this being stated, coaching is how I tutor. Throughout my athletic career, I have come across a number of coaches. With all the tools they have all given me, I’d like to fill the tool boxes of others.
I have 2 years of coaching volleyball and 2 of basketball under my belt. I have also been an assistant leader for coaching mechanics in track drills. In all my experiences, I can say I did a good job when my group of girls or guys are smiling....

Coaching is the ability to teach and inspire, with this being stated, coaching is how I tutor. Throughout my athletic career, I have come across a number of coaches. With all the tools they have all given me, I’d like to fill the tool boxes of others.
I have 2 years of coaching volleyball and 2 of basketball under my belt. I have also been an assistant leader for coaching mechanics in track drills. In all my experiences, I can say I did a good job when my group of girls or guys are smiling. Frustrations come at the beginning of anything, but it takes patience and drive to overcome them. These challenges make it easy to quit, but with the right guidance, they could be 1 step closer to reaching their goal. I love the immediate big smiles that spread across someone’s face after successfully doing something they had once struggled with. My goal is to teach that everything is achievable if you work at it and inspire to keep at it.

• 11 Years- Volleyball Playing Experience (recreational, Middle School, High School, and Collegiate)

Approved Subjects

Basketball

Basketball

I was the defensive coach for the local AAU 9-10 boys’ basketball team. Some of my duties I was involved in included creating defensive plays, assisting the head coach with practice and discipline, and leading the defensive portion of practice. Along with my experience, I passed the basketball coaching class offered at my university.
College Counseling

College Counseling

I was an Admissions Counselor for a university in Iowa. Within my time there, I learned how to counsel students and their parents through the admissions process. I was able to help them get all the documents they needed submitted for a chance of acceptance to the university. I suggested necessary essay corrections to ensure a better chance of being accepted, as well as helping each student to maintain a positive attitude throughout the process. I was able to provide advice on completing the FAFSA, and I played a role in building their excitement to a new journey.
Track & Field

Track & Field

To begin, the events I competed in includes: 400M, 200M, 800M, 300M hurdles, triple jump, 4x200M relay, and the 4x400M relay. The summer of my high school sophomore year is when I began to assist the head sprint coach in drills. He would text me the first couple of drills to start practice, and it was my responsibility to get everyone motivated to start without his presence. For mechanic related drills, I would demonstrate how it should be done, then the coach would pull me aside to be his second eyes to determine what needed to be critiqued on who.
Volleyball

Volleyball

I was the head coach of 2 recreational volleyball teams in my city. The age ranges that I had the chance to coach were 9-10 and 11-12. Aside from coaching in a team setting, I have also had the opportunity to work with girls ranging from 8-13 in a volleyball camp setting. After playing volleyball for a little over a decade of my life, I have personal experience to back up the knowledge I share.

Very thorough. She taught me sprinting mechanics and did a good job. I look forward towards working with her again.
