Bio

“Before I met you,” one of my students just told me, “I was completely lost, but you have broken everything down for me in a way I can understand.” I absolutely love hearing this! It’s an intangible fruit-of-labor worth more than the newest iPhone 12 you’re using to read this.

If your goal is to speak English like a native, I’m a pro at that! Not only do I have a 120-hour Advanced TEFL certificate, but I also work with over 50 different English learners per week. My current rating is 9.64...

“Before I met you,” one of my students just told me, “I was completely lost, but you have broken everything down for me in a way I can understand.” I absolutely love hearing this! It’s an intangible fruit-of-labor worth more than the newest iPhone 12 you’re using to read this.

If your goal is to speak English like a native, I’m a pro at that! Not only do I have a 120-hour Advanced TEFL certificate, but I also work with over 50 different English learners per week. My current rating is 9.64 out of 10, and I work with everyone—from your six-year-old child (who really only wants to talk about toys or cartoons!) to your jolly grandpa (who wants to follow the up and coming Golden State dynasty!). In addition to this, I have accrued over 200 ESL sessions. Additionally, I have scored over 500 reading responses through DRC and over 200 SAT Writing responses through ETS.

If you want to get an A on a last-minute paper or simply want to master those annoying grammar rules that only MS Word seems to care about, I can help you with that also. I’ve completed over 5,000 English sessions over the last 5 years via Valencia College and was twice nationally recognized as English Tutor of the Month. Moreover, I have helped graduate students edit scholarly journal articles, theses, and dissertations! Students love me because I use a formulaic approach to essay planning and help them articulate their everyday thoughts into pristine academic language. Although I WILL NOT write your paper for you, I will definitely read your assigned texts, help you brainstorm and outline, and guide you through the revision process.

Furthermore, if you dread math and science but desperately need an A or B for [INSERT YOUR REASON HERE], I can assist you with that too. Over the last 5 years of tutoring professionally, I have logged over 100 hours of math tutoring. I can help you with everything from unraveling hypnosis-inducing slope fields to overcoming your nightmarish fear of fractions. I’m extremely effective at teaching math because my verbal tal

In college, I earned a B- in American History and an A in African American History (from colonialism to Reconstruction). Also, I enjoy watching various history documentaries in my spare time.

Grammar

I've tutored students from the preparatory English level up to the English composition level. As a result, I have developed a set consulting method based on tutoring experience, writing experience, and formal counseling training. This method enables me to target critical areas for any given student, strengthen them, and provide resources for practice. More specifically, I seek to strengthen these areas: structural coherence, syntactical subordination and coordination, transitions, word choice, setting off non-essentials, varying sentence structures, correlating conclusions with essay purpose, and much more.
Greek

Greek

In undergrad, I took three semesters of Attic Greek and one semester of Koine Greek. In grad school, I opted out of Greek courses after successfully passing the competency test.

I tutor Prealgebra regularly and use kinesthetic teaching techniques to help students concretize the abstract concepts. I love Prealgebra because it seems to be most applicable to a large part of daily living.

I have been teaching precal for 4 years now. Teaching this subject involves the ability to explain limits and advanced trig concepts. Given my mastery of precal, I placed out of a calculus class for my computer science degree.

Moreover, I help students achieve desired results by showing them how to organize their essays according to Aristotle's Means of Persuasion and general text-based reasoning heuristics.
Spelling

Spelling

The key to spelling is just rote memorization, but understanding word etymology is also a plus. Many of our English words come from Greek, Latin, and various Germanic languages. I recommend using an unfamiliar word within a practical sentence in order to help with the memorization of it.
Study Skills

Study Skills

Having completed close to 5,000 tutoring sessions over the last four years, my hypothesis is that most people who need tutoring are tactile learners, especially since classrooms tend to favor visual and auditory learners more. I use neuro-linguistic programming analysis to determine each student's learning style preference and then adapt my approach accordingly. Also, I teach students how to study most effectively according to their learning style preference. With respect to educational background, I pull from my child development and counseling courses to conduct assessments and analysis. Because of this approach, I am able to help most people to become more self-sufficient within 2-3 sessions.
TEAS

I've been helping people prepare for the TEAS for 8 years now. In that time, I have helped many students to get the scores necessary to enter their desired programs. On average, at least 2 people reach out to me about helping them with the TEAS every month.
TOEFL

TOEFL

I have assisted countless ESL/ESOL over the last four years as an internal tutor at a local college. I break down concepts in such an easy-to-understand way that many of my ESL/ESOL return for further assistance. I enjoy making abstract concepts accessible and practical for the average person, which is optimal while assisting a non-native speaker.
Trigonometry

Trigonometry

I've been teaching trig for over 4 years and have helped numerous students to pass their classes. Also, because I have mastered trig, I placed out of a the calculus class for my new computer science degree that I'm pursuing.
Vocabulary

Vocabulary

My training in Greek and Biblical Hebrew has given me the foundation for studying and memorizing word etymology, a sub-field within linguistics. I could help students increase their vocabulary by teaching study techniques for linguistics.
Writing

Writing

I have logged well over 2,000 hours of writing tutoring experience in the last 5 years. I am successful at teaching this topic because of my masterful ability to help students articulate their thoughts in academically meaningful ways.
