Hello parents and students!

Thank you for allowing me the opportunity to tell you a little about myself. School can be an exhilarating as well as a downright frustrating endeavor to embark on, particularly when the subject is difficult and the obstacles seem insurmountable. It is for this reason that I realize the gravity of trust that is placed in the hands of a tutor to provide some much needed insight, tools and techniques for learning, and sometimes just a person with whom to commiserate.

A little of my background experience in tutoring:

My first tutoring experience included being an English and math tutor at a private college in Kansas City, Kansas while completing my Bachelor's degree there. After acquiring my Bachelor's in Psychology, I began tutoring privately at the homes of my students ranging from 1st grade all the way through college as well as for adult learners looking to complete their degrees. My educational background in Psychology has helped me learn many techniques and tools that allow me customize my tutoring approach to meet each individual student's needs. My extensive exposure to students with learning disabilities has added greatly to my personal commitment to those for whom learning can be a unique challenge. It has also provided me with many opportunities to learn a variety of methods and techniques that I can employ with great success.

As an individual who was raised in another culture and as the daughter of missionary parents, I am sensitive to the diverse social and cultural backgrounds of those I tutor and interact with.

Again, thank you for taking the time to read a little about my experiences and qualifications. I look forward to the responsibility of helping you or your child to experience the profound joy and feeling of accomplishment that accompanies academic success.
