Math and Spanish Tutoring Made Fun!

Hello!

I am a recent graduate of San Diego State University where I obtained my Master's of Public Health (with a concentration in health promotion and behavioral science) and my Master's of Arts in Latin American Studies. I'm loving my new job in my field, but I also loved school! While I'm no longer a student myself, I still enjoy working with other students to help them succeed.

My two best subjects are math and Spanish, but I'm open to tutoring a variety of other subjects as well, including biology, writing, test-prep, and more.

I have excelled in math from the time I was in elementary school. By the time I finished middle school, I had taken algebra I, algebra II, and geometry. In high school, I studied calculus I, calculus II, and statistics. I was a member of Mu Alpha Theta, the national math honor society, and competed as a mathlete in MathCounts, an American mathematics competition. I even scored a perfect 800 on the math section of the SAT.

I have over 12 years of experience studying Spanish, including a trip to Costa Rica to study abroad and a short period of living in southern Mexico to conduct research. I also worked as a teaching assistant for Spanish 101 and 102 during my undergrad at Montana State University, and taught history of Mexico at San Diego State University.

For two years, I volunteered as a mentor in the Child Advancement Project (CAP) through a non-profit organization called Thrive, Inc. As a CAP mentor, I worked one-on-one with a student in the Bozeman school district on their schoolwork. Some of the children I worked with were excelling in their studies and needed an additional challenge outside of the classroom, while others were struggling in a subject and needed individual help to keep them on track with the rest of the class.

I am great working with students of all abilities. I know how to adjust a lesson according to each student's best learning style, whether it be visual, verbal, hands-on, or any other learning style. I also assist students in creating a variety of stud
