To Prospective students and parents:

I specialize in career and technical education with experience in teaching elementary level core subject areas reading, language arts within several schools within the Garland School Districts. I enjoy helping others meet their full potential in their educational goals and their lives. This is why I teach, tutor and mentor youth and adults. I have always possessed a love for discovering new and challenging things and I have been an avid reader and a technology guru since my earlier years. This helped me to excel in many areas in my education and career.

My name is Rhonda, I hold a Bachelor of Science degree in Business Management from Southern University. I come from an extensive business, finance and legal background that lead me into a teaching career. After working over 30 years in the corporate world in the Insurance, Legal, and Finance industries. I decided to pursue a Texas Alternative Certification and share my knowledge and experience with the future generation of the workforce. I really wanted to give back to the communities that helped me reach my goals in my career and in obtaining higher education.

I specialize in tutoring in Career and Technical Education and Reading, and Writing. I believe in getting back to basics with the three R, (Reading, Writing and Arithmetic/math) which is the key to helping students perform well and excel in their core subject areas and move onto advanced studies. In addition, I tutor in Business Education in courses such as Keyboarding, Basic Computer, Finance, and Business Law, and MS Office applications (Word, Excel, Outlook, and PowerPoint) at the elementary and secondary level (6-12 grade).
