I am a graduate of WGU with a BA in Education. I have experience in tutoring and teaching all grades and adults. I have 28 years of experience tutoring K-12 students in all subjects, with a concentration in math and art. My expertise extends to numerous vocational skills and the visual arts.

I have had the opportunity to work both in public and private schools and also as an educational volunteer and mentor. I look forward to helping you with your academic needs.

The following is my philosophy of teaching and learning:
Teaching is helping learners acquire knowledge. Helping them to understand the context in which it is acquired, how it was acquired, and what we do with it afterward. Teaching is more than just what happens in the classroom; it is the effective, humane management of complex human interaction.

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.

Knowledgeable and patient

Denise discussed a few sections of Samara’s note. Denise sent a bunch of notes to add to hers to help her understand the subject better. We really liked that idea. Now Samara can review it whenever she needs it. Thanks Denise.
