I have a bachelor's degree at a four-year university. I graduated with honors. I hold a Psychology major and a Sociology minor which qualifies me to tutor ALL of the Social Studie's courses. I am currently a certified teacher who teaches U.S. History in high school. I have taught for 13 years. My scores for the U.S. History MAAP State Test averaged 85-90 percent proficient over a 7-year period of time before the test was dropped by the state department. I have taught 9-12th grades, but I also have tutored younger students. Most of my experience is in the classroom but have had one-on-one and small group settings within the school environment. Prior to my full-time teaching position, I worked as a certified long-term substitute. I am patient and flexible with my students.
My first year of teaching I received the award of NEW TEACHER OF THE YEAR. I have received since then TEACHER OF THE YEAR twice. Teaching for me is a passion and a calling. I put everything I have into the task at hand for the betterment of my students. I will carry this philosophy into my tutoring sessions.
I desire to widen my scope of assisting more students in this different platform setting as I work one on one with students. I am ready to venture out from the classroom and start working with you to reach your goals. Your success is my SUCCESS!
My students love to come to my class because it is always an adventure as they learn about the past. I will pass this mindset on into my tutoring sessions. As we learn about the past, it helps us to navigate and understand our future.
Prior to entering the educational world, I spend 20 years in business as an entrepreneur and a television advertising sales agent. I find having academia and business in my background propels me in being the best tutor for my students as I feed off of my past experiences. This allows me to have a well-rounded view of the information that we are studying and I delight myself in being able to pass this on and pay it forward.
