Experience
As a former tenured high school teacher and a current college success coach, my passion is education. I have tutored elementary age to college students and love working with young adults! Colleagues and students say I'm easy to get along with, have a great sense of humor, and can break information down into easy-to-understand chunks. My fiance and I need to save for our wedding next September, and tutoring is a perfect meeting of skills and needs. Here is a brief overview of some of the things I have been involved in, along with awards achieved along the way: • Nominated for InsideTrack’s Outstanding Coaching Meeting, 2013 • Awarded InsideTrack’s Outstanding Student Impact Award, 2012 • Voted "Miss SNL - Most Hilarious" by fellow High School faculty members and students, 2011 • Received Teach for America-Hawaii 2008 Corps Stewardship Award, 2010 • Voted Sigma Lambda Gamma (multicultural sorority) "Sister of the Year, " 2008 • Received Alliance for Hispanic Affairs Alianza Award, 2008 My qualifications can be seen more extensively on my Linkedin profile, here: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jessiestone
