Why reinvent the wheel? The wheel is so boring....I have been teaching for almost 20 years. I have a unique style of getting to know each student personally and meeting them where they are. I believe that technology has made the educational playing field level as each student has the ability to have a truly individual education tailored just to them.

I enjoy teaching others because it helps them realize their potential and not just know science, but to enjoy learning it. I have the ability to teach a variety of sciences such as Biology, Biochemistry, Anatomy, Physiology, and more. I believe studying is a skill and that one may improve their aptitude so long as they keep working at it, and that is where a great tutor can help.

I am a graduate of Lamar University in Beaumont, Texas. I received my Bachelor or Science degree in 2006, with a teaching certificate for English, Language Arts, and Reading, (4-8) and Social Studies (4-8). I received my Master of Education in Administration in 2009, with a principal certification. I also have Dyslexic and 504 training. While in college I tutored algebra and geometry. My favorite class in college was trigonometry. After college, I taught reading and social studies at the junior high level. i enjoyed teaching both, but I believe I am most passionate about reading. I am also really good at helping my students with test-taking strategies. If you understand how to read the question, you have a better chance of passing the test. Each student dictates my teaching style. I know not all students learn the same way. Being dyslexic myself, I like to see what learning style best meets the needs of my students and I adapt my teaching style to meet their needs. Outside of teaching I love spending time with my grandchildren. They are the light of my heart. Spending time with family and friends.

I received my Bachelor of Science in Interdisciplinary Studies from The University of North Texas. Once I graduated, I quickly landed my dream position as a second grade math and science teacher. I then transferred to a school closer to home, to teach 4th grade. I quickly fell in love with teaching older students my favorite subject, math! After four years with 4th grade, I was moved to 5th grade math and social studies. I soon realized I loved the conversations that my classes and I would have when reading articles or learning about the American Revolution. After one year in 5th grade, I decided to go back to school to obtain my Masters in School Counseling from Lamar University. My ten years in teaching have taught me alot, but the most important is that every child learns differently. It is not always easy, but when I can figure out how to adapt to each students needs it is truly rewarding to see how excited they are when they understand new concepts.

I am a graduate of Lamar University. I received my Bachelor of Science in Chemical Engineering. I also received a Master of Business Administration from the University of Southern California. I worked eleven years in corporate business as a chemical engineer, until I chose to leave to pursue my passion which is education. For the last thirteen years, I have been teaching developmental math classes at the community college level. In addition, I have been tutoring students of all ages and levels.I enjoy tutoring students, because you get to experience that light bulb moment with them. They realize that things aren't as complex as they were originally thinking. I emphasize showing the rules of math. So often students get confused on certain concepts because they have learned some type of shortcut in the past, which does not apply with all cases. However, if the students just know the rules, they can apply their knowledge with any given problem. The rules will never change; the only thing that changes are the numbers.My tutoring work also helps me be a better classroom teacher, because by working one-on-one you learn where the misunderstandings may be with a particular concept.
