I was a Registered Behavior Technician for several years and was a Certified Behavior Technician in good standing for 8+ years, until late 2024.

My educational background includes a B.A. in Political Science from Central Washington University in 1992. I earned a tutoring certification while I was in college, and practiced tutoring for about a year. I worked as a tutor/mentor through Americorps for approximately 6 months. I was a Registered Behavior Technician for several years and was a Certified Behavior Technician in good standing for 8+ years, until late 2024.
I worked for the last 8+ years as a Behavioral Therapist, the last 7 with the same family. During that time, I had many opportunities to observe and assist the learning process. I learned a wide variety of skills and techniques to help learners grow and succeed. I have a proven track record of success in helping others learn.
I greatly enjoy teaching, especially in a 1-on-1 environment. I am competent at teaching reading, writing and math to early learners, but my true passion is teaching political science, history and government to more advanced students.

Reading

Reading

While I find reading easy and enjoyable, I recognize that this is not the case for everyone. My step-sister is dyslexic, so I have seen how much someone can struggle. I have found that patience and understanding are the keys to helping someone develop a passion for the written word.
Social Studies

Social Studies

I have extensive knowledge of governmental systems, with a specialization in American Politics. I am well-versed in many political theories, with extensive knowledge of the US Constitution. I have familiarity with world history but specialize in American history and political philosophy.

Exceptional Tutor

I've been working with Quin for Comparative Politics since February of 2026, and I cannot recommend her highly enough. What I appreciated most was how much confidence she helped me build throughout the course. My professor's quizzes and exams were quite challenging, with very little guidance on what to focus on beyond being responsible for entire chapters. The quizzes were timed, you only had one attempt, and the exams were closed-note bluebook essays. Before working with her, I felt quite anxious about assessments and was never completely sure whether I was studying the right material. She consistently helped me identify the most important concepts, made sure I genuinely understood the material before quizzes and exams, and provided practical test-taking strategies that made a huge difference. She even shared techniques for staying calm under pressure, which I found incredibly helpful. She is an exceptionally patient tutor with a great sense of humor, and she has a real talent for explaining difficult political science concepts in a clear and accessible way. Her discussion-based approach encouraged me to ask questions and explore topics in depth, and she always took the time to ensure I understood something before moving on. No matter what question I had, she was able to provide a thoughtful and understandable explanation. The results speak for themselves. After I started working with her, I earned perfect scores on all of my quizzes and received an A on my final exam. Her explanations also improved my understanding of the course material enough that I felt much more comfortable participating in class discussions. As an added bonus, she also helped me with a public-speaking role-playing assignment for a different class. She broke the assignment down in a way that made it far less intimidating and much easier to understand. I would absolutely recommend her to any student studying political science. She makes complicated material manageable, helps build confidence, and genuinely wants her students to succeed.
