My experience:

I am a graduate of WGU (Western Governors University) with a BA in Education. I have experience in tutoring and teaching all grades and adults. I have 20+ years of experience tutoring K-12 students in all subjects, with a concentration in science and math. My experience also extends to tutoring reading, writing, grammar, art, and numerous vocational skills as well. I have worked with adults and students who need help obtaining their GED and preparing for the ASVAB.

As a teacher and tutor I strive to create a personal learning environment for each student that is motivating, supportive, and engaging. In addition, I want to make it challenging and inspiring. It is my responsibility to guide and nurture students and help them take ownership of their learning with pride and without hesitation.

I believe a hands on approach, whenever possible, enables the student to create a link between theory and experience allowing them to become more involved in the learning process as well as increased efficacy in personal accomplishments. Hands on learning takes additional work on the teacher’s part, but the engagement with the student can create an excellent teacher-student relationship. In addition, hands-on learning is an exceptional

Math

Denise taught ratios and presented the material clearly. She was friendly and patient. My daughter left asking when her next session is. This is a big deal because she struggles in math.
